Sometimes you need more than one. :whistle:
I carry both of these in my contingency bag along with anything I might need for a day or two when I can't leave or go shopping. Everything from IFAK to batteries, bootlaces, and meal replacement bars is in there.  Anyway, last Friday I had to replace the batteries in a mobility scooter.  The connections bolt to the terminal posts, so I used the DualForce to hold the nuts, and the CenterDrive to loosen/tighten the bolts. :cheers:

Good thinking Alan! There are times when you need two pair of pliers.  I have a bag in my car with backups of gear I might need, too.

One of the original surprise boxes contained a Center Drive. I regret passing it up. Did it wind up with Alan?

I got the DualForce when Gerber had their end of summer sale a couple of years ago and I think I got the CenterDrive 4 or 5 years ago off of ebay.  I don't recall seeing a CenterDrive in the Sos surprise box, so somebody else must have got it.
The surprise box is still going around if anyone else wants to sign up for it.  :cheers:

The contents still fit in a small flat rate box when the Center Drive was included, and was long gone when I took my second go. That's quite the span of time in which it could have been claimed. Perhaps I'll find the original thread and see if I can determine who claimed it.

Took the good old lawn mower out for the annual check before its season starts.

I gave it some oil, cleaned out cakes of old grass and leaves from the moving parts and gave the spark plug a sort of ritual rub off. ::) :D

Finally I touched up the blade with the MP's file. The lawn mowers blade was in a pretty sorry state. :dunno: It doesn't need to be anywhere near perfect for my needs, so a little rough walk over did wonders. Those files are ace. And the MP is awesome for dirty work like this. :tu:

Thanks, Barry. :hatsoff: It's a fun activity, I find. You know spring is coming when you feel like taking the old lawn mower out. Not that I use it much. We like to have the garden grow a bit wild, but some trails and a football pitch is needed. :D

I just got this Mr. Pinchy. My first. :D I find it really nice. The size and weight makes for very easy carry, but it does not seem to hold back on sturdiness for that reason. :o I'm looking forward to taking it to the test, but I expect it to do some tough work, for the looks and feel of it.
