Hi guys! Bought myself a black wave, got it yesterday. Already cut my finger deep when i cleaned the oil of it after unboxing!  :rofl: And i have used it to fix a chainsaw at work so it´s broken in now!  :whistle:

Will be posting some images just for fun when i use it.
If it´s interesting.

Welcome and great first LM.  The bit kit and bit extender really increase the range of what this tool can do.

Thanks for the welcome guys! Yeah a surge would be quite nice.
The image with the "mini" surge is it just a wave with the big scissors mounted?
Would be cool to make a custom tool. You break the warranty if you do that right?

Welcome to the Forum, mate! This is just the beginning...now you'll want it in S/S, then go bigger to Surge and venture into skeletal LM tool designs later...oh, man...you're doomed, haha. >:D
