sorry to hear that comis, hope you feel better soon
Get well soon Comis.
Day 59: Almost there! Used the butter blade to cut open some Stabil for my lawn equipment. Comis has designed a really nice badge for this challenge for the 60 days participants. It's currently with the mods for approval. I'll let everyone know when it's ready to go.
Day 60! This has been a phenomenal time with a beautiful multitool and a great group of people! Don't forget to put in for your badge and keep cheering on the participants who are still finishing up. Thank you for a great time!
Day 60 many thanks to Barry for all the encouragement along the way and great work fellow challengers The badge looks really great comis and Barry, top stuff The Spirit, what’s not to like, such a superb MT with probably the best F&F of any of them, such a satisfying tool to open and closeThe main tools I found myself using over and over were the chisel (aka the chiselly thing) for package opening, and the bottle opener, which is a bit thicker than a lot of them so works better. Also used the butter blade, drivers and scissors as well as the awl for scraping out the pill crusher, all great Still not entirely convinced by the saw as per my discussion with comis early on in the challenge. His videos testing MT saws (and other tools) are really worth checking out if you haven’t already As has been said before, the butterblade pairs brilliantly with almost any other PE knife, whether trad, folder, SAK or fixie. A no 7 or 8 Opinel would make an excellent choice imo For my last pic I was thinking which SAK would pair well for me and I think Compact is perfect (this one gifted to me by the fine gentleman that is @SurgeUk when we caught up in London last year ) but Cadet gives me the nail file, so I’m on the fence Thanks again awl (Image removed from quote.)
Badge awarded Sir
Day 60 of 60Last day of challenge. I did have today chance to use both of my Spirits. I took our bootscrapers lower brush what detached yesterday when kids played with it bit too hard. First i used pliers to remove screws, needed bit help of chisel to dig broken screw it was breaked inside of brush and needed remove bit wood to unscrew it.(Image removed from quote.) (Image removed from quote.)After that i drilled holes to it and needed awl help to remove burs out of it, then i screwed bolts (stronergs than screws i have) with flathead. Needed first change washer cause it was too big and was interfier with brush.(Image removed from quote.)(Image removed from quote.)Lastly i installed brush back in place and used flathead and other Spirits pliers to screw nut to it.(Image removed from quote.)(Image removed from quote.)(Image removed from quote.)So i was able to use both Spirit to get job done. I could done job with other tools but cause its challenge last day i decided to use both. It was fun challenge to do, but now that im mostly at home i think i return to carry SAK only since i dont need to carry it with me all the time, but i will throw my other Spirit to my edc bag cause its so handy tool to have along when needed. Butterblade Spirit was placed back to sheat and orginal box next to with my other tools in collection. I may take it sometimes out just to play with it.Thanks everyone who participated this awesome challenge. Bit long post but needed to show all uses with Spirit today.Only Tools Matters
Well done awl Showing some support today and used my MXBS to help remove a cabinet in the hallway. The Dept of Good Ideas had decided that "we didn't like it anymore" and I assembled a replacement "we do like" As a true man and master in my own house I did as I was told and then came here to vent
