My three-year-old locked herself in a public restroom stall this morning, but wasn’t able to unlock it.  Sportsman (and I) to the rescue!

Scissors on my Super Tinker to cut some banding and saw and file on my Spirit to cut a makeshift shim for a window.
I knew my wife was a keeper when she transitioned from calling it a knife thingy to a multi-tool.

Pliers on my Skipper removed staples from invoices a couple days ago at work and today regular and small blades both cut various items while unpacking boxes today.

Trooper went along on a snowy walk with my Ames square end shovel. Cleared the snow berm from around my mailbox. Snow plows leave a mound. Got tired of that and toddled home. Best wishes. G :dunno:  [ You are not allowed to view this attachment ]

My wife got this bike trailer off FB Marketplace for a song, we're excited to use it with our little one. Whoever had it before must have been a bodybuilder that stem cap was on so tight. The Deluxe Tinker pliers worked like a charm.

Used the large blade on the SwissChamp to cut some cord to hang a banner.

As I was at the top of a ladder at the time, no picture.   :(

I used my 84 mm Climber while replacing a forklift motor controller with one that had slightly different bolt hole spacing. I stripped some narrow gauge wires with the stripper, cut some electrician's tape with the scissors, and then used the awl to scribe which bolt holes needed to be adjusted and by how much.

Used the main blade on my Spartan to cut an old shoelace serving as a secondary latch on a gate.


Honestly, I was too lazy to grab the rigging knife out of my tool roll...

Helping my oldest son into a shirt and tie (not something either of us wear often) this morning for his mock interview, and we couldn’t get the top button fastened.  Grabbed the Explorer only because it was closest.  Turns out that the SAK hook makes an outstanding buttonhook.

No pics because he was in a hurry…

Used the toothpick to open up the battery compartment's lid, and the eyeglass SD to pull back the battery latch so that I could remove the protective film from my new valve pressure gauge; found out my floorpump was off by 10psi!!!  :facepalm: :oops:

     Used the saw to cut some sawbriars wrapped around some privet with wild rose wrapped around all of that.  Nothing very heavy to cut, but tricky if you don't want to draw blood.  I think the deer have killed off a lot of the multiflora rose.  There used to be a continuous layer of these things.  Some had stems four and five inches through and climbed way out of sight in the trees.  Might be something else killed them.  Lots of the trees are dying too. 
      I did carry a shovel along as well.  Just looks like an ordinary old shovel, right?  Very heavy rain from time to time here.  I had to dig a few ditches.  It was so nice a few minutes ago, I thought about mowing some.  Now the thunder is rolling and skies are darkening fast.  More rain coming.  Just can't catch a break.  Best wishes.  G
