That's a big amount of sound tech!

When you combine it with a workchamp you'll get Heavy Metal!
:rofl:
Thanks ulzhan
The way it’s going it may end up being death metal!

Day 6:
This was supposed to be two photos. The ingridients and the end result. Unfortunately I forgot to snap the end result pic.:

So, this shows ready made cheese selection, ready jambon and salami selection, pepper flawoured beef bits, habanero flavoured potato chips to be prepped and consumed with the Cheese Master plus ginger beer to wash it down with.
:drool:
Habanero packs a kick, got some in the fridge

Has the Workchamp been discontinued?  Been nosing around looking at them and everyone seems to be Out of Stock.

Don’t think so, saw a new one listed on eBay Australia tonight
One of the main sellers is out of stock though so who knows  :dunno:

My favorite carry, especially to work,  is the AFO II clipped to my pocket and my modded Pioneer X ( just scissors and modded opener layer...) either in bottom of same pocket or in watch pocket on jeans.



Nice pics zrxoa1! :like: :tu: :tu:
Cool mod! :cheers:

No uses today. Just watching the Canada-US hockey game with the cheese master and hoping things turn around in the second period!

A few places have the older slide lock version, but if I went for it, I’d want the newer liner lock version.

Are you really sure? The added weight is an issue, especially in a SAK as heavy as the Workchamp, and the slide lock mechanism is more comfortable (imo) than the liner lock. Also, the locking bottle opener is a mixed bag: as a prying tool and SD, it is superior; but if you mainly use it as a bottle opener, it sucks having to unlock it every time after use.

I use it to pry more than anything. NEVER use a bottle opener.   Thus I like the locking feature of it.

I rarely carry the Hercules in a pocket, so weight isn’t an issue.

Thanks for the heads up though!!

Thanks  Rizio :tu: not sure how long it’s going to take, already been at it some time but at least like items are with likes, just not well sorted yet.
Keep coming across things I’d completely forgotten about (some I don’t recognise at all) which I’ve obviously kept in case they’d be useful …for the most part they haven’t!
Like you say, be really good when it’s done and make future projects a lot easier :cheers:

…and then at some point I have to tackle the big one, 25+ years of studio equipment, this is my current rack (synths and computers not shown), I used to have about 3 times this, a lot has gone, a lot hasn’t! The cables alone take up four large crates :ahhh

Quite a few echo(tech) boxes hence the name

I do enjoy editing short videos for my own enjoyment and youtube, but that only exist on a humble PC and software level--but wow, this is totally the Pro level stuff!  :o :tu:

I love my Hercules, but I’d like the addition of the file and liner lock set up.   Guess I’ll keep nosing around.

Hmmm, why don't I ever think of this?  Good use! :tu:   About discontinuing Workchamp, I am probably the last to know but do anyone notice there seems to be an active cut down on product lines from Victorinox?  Some good and popular models got chopped off(at least in my view, PE Trekker, etc), then 74mm, then potentially Workchamp... :think:

Day 6



Used the blade to cut open packages and lemon in the morning, and within the package, there is the new Mora Eldris Light Duty.  I haven't used the blade(since we are in a challenge), but I suspect it's much better than the compound grind they had for the original.  The Eldris is a pretty cool idea, and I only wish Mora would come out of a version half the girth and even lighter, so it is easier in the pocket.

@ comis- yes I added the scales afterwards. I hadn’t seen the navy camo in real life, so thought that was a good enough excuse for a swap!
@munsonhsr - yes, no comeback this time, you got us! Good game by two good teams

Do the more recent slide locks have the newer sized tools? I only have one and the bottle opener and can opener seem kind of ridiculous not having been scaled to the larger size.
Also I see what you mean about the bottle opener locking every time.  At least for me though that’s a trade I’m happy to make since some jobs I’ve done would’ve not been possible without the ability to lock the pry bar opener
