Sam,
Can you tighten the pliers mount screws anymore than they are(I know some SOG models have pins that are bottomed out)? That is how I got mine to stop opening in my pocket.  :dunno:

But I like to flik the pliers open and bash my knuckles a little..  :D

That's alot of improvements from the original design RC!  :like: I would really like to incorporate some kind of swing lock for the handles.. The pocket clip is on the wrong end and the handles keeps opening up in my pocket..

Thanks Sam. Regarding the lock for the handles, would cutting a notch out of the lanyard ring and right handle (as per diagram) work?

Also, how straight forward is it when reassembling the springs? Does it require any 'tricks' like the LM Juice to put the springs back in place?

Thanks.

Something like the Kershaw A100's would work, maybe on the other side of where the Pint's pocket-clip is.
put a latch on one screw, and have a narrow washer to lift the screw's head, so the latch can hook it.

This sounds like a good idea ReamerPunch! All we need is to source a suitable latch that will fit, if not it has to be custom-made?

Gosh, I wish SOG is listening !

I think it would be easy to fabricate from some mild hardness  thinner gauge steel. Using a dremel and assorted cutting wheels and bits. And a lot of patience.  :ahhh

Thanks for the tip! Has anyone disassembled the torx screws, took out the implements and put it all back together in their Pint yet? How easy/difficult is it to put the tension springs back together?

Anytime! Should be a fun project.  :cheers:
It is one of the easier tools to break down and put back together(relatively of course). The only issue I would mark as somewhat serious is the thin washers. Make sure they do back between the correct implements. The newer versions have better quality washers, but if you have an early Pint, they will be thin and flimsy. Just something to watch for.  :)

Like GLBM said. The spring does not post any problems. I think mine is a earlier version. The washers are a complete mess..  :facepalm:

Not ideal, but a quick & dirty method to prevent the handles from opening while riding on the pocket clip. Cut out a U clip from a paper clip.

A couple of questions though, if you don't mind?! Do you ever lose the clips? And how long does a nice one take to make?

Sure, not at all. I haven't lost a clip yet, but it is mainly because I only had it for less than 24 hours and I haven't been carrying it around too much  :cheers: I agree with you it may be prone to loosing since there is no permanent attachment to the Pint. fyi I made the first u-clip in about a minute, and if I ever loose it I can re-make a replacement in less than a minute since I am already familiar with the overall shape. All that is required is a paper clip, 2 cuts + 2 bends (with one finger and one set of pliers) btw - I have further 'refined' the u-clip in the attached photo. It has worked well for me so far (within the last 24 hous or so).

Excellent. Thank you, RC! :cheers:

I may conjure up a few clips for some looser tools now. A minute or so seems like a fair compromise to keep certain tools from opening on the pocket. I have usually just over tightened pliers pivot bolts to keep them from opening, but flipping MTs open when they arw looser. :)

I want to love this tool so badly... perfect size, good tool selection (short of flat head drivers)... but the small flathead that is onboard bends at will and is seemingly made of pot metal... the scissors leave a lot to be desired as well... I am in love with the design, just wish it was executed better!

The last SOG MT I bought, and I don't even remember the name [it was the PowerAccess], was so poorly made that I dropped out of an MTO Challenge and returned the thing to Amazon. The "file" was as smooth as a baby's rump, and the whole thing was just flimsy and cheap.

I have not experienced any driver bending yet, but will watch for it. Thanks for the input, Nittles! :cheers:

Indeed. I did have fun smearing mayonnaise on bread with the file though.  :rofl:

Here is the PowerAccess Deluxe/PowerAccess challenge thread for anyone interested in our observations of its' performance.  :)
https://forum.multitool.org/index.php/topic,77168.60.html

That said, and I'm being honest, it would be nice to keep this thread about the PowerPint and ideas to improve the function of it. :)

When the PowerPint was annouced I was pretty sure I would get one but held off waiting to hear some reports. I no longer intend to get one because I expect to be disappointed and I'm not all the picky. SOG has some great ideas and clever designs but they seriously need to up their manufacturing game before I will ever buy again.

I may be the odd one to like the file on the Pint. Tool this size, I wouldn't expect it to file hard stuffs. Able to round off plastic or wood is good enough. Works best for manicure. Great pocket nail file for touching up.  :tu:
Merit Badges Must post a step by step pictorial of a knife or MT Mod, done by you that includes changing the main chassis of the tool in a significant way. By machining, welding or cutting original design to accept new tool loads. Requests will be reviewed.

Inspired by the new LM Free, I found a 1mm magnet and used it as a stopper to the handles from opening. A slightly more 'elegant' solution to the 'paper clip' method imo.
