Or jump in now... the Challenge is still young!

So sad to learn of the curve life threw you.

I had hoped you would eventually visit and share you adventures wit your Spirit.

I had planned to review, then just jumped in with both SPIRITS…

Please share!

Weather finally turned that way for us in Pennsylvania too!  :ahhh
Day Seven

Glorious weather finally here in Texas. It was cool and breezy, after a long triple digit stretch this summer. 

Left the house today and forgot my phone and Spirit.

Here is my pairing for tomorrow.

Also this blade is awesome. Wicked sharp. I wish it was on the flip side for right handed oho.

The straight blade could be sharper.

☕☕. Same here.  I wonder what's holding up your release on yours?  Good thing the OG Super Tool trick works to release the implements  :tu:
Day 8

Sunday morning, a 2 cup of coffee day already🤪

Had a rough edge on a garage shelf, and used the file to remedy the abrasive edge.

However, when I tried to unlock and close the implement it would not release.

So I had to extract another implement and it released the lock and I was able to close the file. 👍

I learned the release trick on my ST300 and Rebars, especially when one hand being used.

Then found it the most practical on the ST200 as the curve release can be really stubborn most days.
If I start and end the day above ground, it is a good day!

Hope yours is as good!

I do the same thing on my 200 LC.  It saves on those locks too.

Day 7 (late)

  [ You are not allowed to view this attachment ]  

Tub drain has been running a little slow. I always try to snake before I resort to draino, so the Spirit helped remove the plug.

Day 8

  [ You are not allowed to view this attachment ]  

Bad pic, but I like the Spirit file for nails a lot more than the modern metal saw/file on the 91s.

Day 8:

Hung some Halloween decorations with the kids. Used the scissors and spear point blade for a bit of trimming fake webs cutting tags etc. used the pliers to hold some nails in place for hanging.

Also cut out this old phone line that I cannot find the source so it’s for now just cut and tucked in.

For the challenge, even if not used, you are to share a picture within post of your Spirit in some sort of fashion for the badge.
Label it Day XX incrementing daily.

Just saying.

Let’s see a glamor shot with that beer. 

I should’ve taken a pic with the Coronas or slicing a lime, but there wasnt time to dilly dally.  So, bonus update from me I guess.

Hope you’re not a cowboys fan, unless it’s turned around I saw last 3rd quarter update…

As the wise say, :worthless:

Still amazed how you can keep tab with all these uses, anyone plans to carve a pumpkin with Spirit?  I think it has a pretty decent blade shape for the job(thin and narrow), but just not sure I want to spend the time to clean it up afterwards.

Awesome uses and pics, guys.

Sadly I have too much stuff going on at work and nothing at all going on with my Spirit, so I’ll have to pass this one and maybe will do it sometime in the future.

Good luck to you all and have fun!

 :cheers: Thanks comis. I may give the pumpkin carving a try with the butter blade. That or the thanksgiving turkey.  The fish scaler is by far the best pumpkin carving tool I’ve used on a SAK or MT.

What’s the orange thing? Is it a Lego piece separator? I could’ve used one of those 30 years ago.

You are a braver man than me, just a bit too lazy to deal with Pumpkin gunk after the carving.

Yes, the lego separator, such unique tool only bricker would know, but always bring a smile on my face when people recognize this thinge. :D
