It has been a while since I heard the term "trapper keeper".  Best wishes.  G  :)

You can certainly tell that we're in the holiday season.  Had to wait until nearly 3:00pm for the mail to arrive, today.  They normally deliver between noon and one.

Well at least I have my package and my MiniChamp has something to do.

Day 19

Still fixing the Halloween inflatables so they can by ready for next year but my MC needed to get cracking on the Christmas decorating duties so it made short work of this zip tie on a green extension cord.


On a side note, Gary, your posts always make me smile and remind me not to take life to seriously.  Gotta stop and admire the trash pandas every now and then.  :D

Day 20
      Not quite the end of the challenge, but you can see it from here.  I did nip a few Holly branches back out of the roadway.  Not too strenuous.  It is just about as much as the mighty mini could do. 
      Package vs Mini.  I did a rather ragged job of opening a package.  More bad technique than anything else.  One hand scooting the blade along while trying to take a phone photo.  It worked.
I wonder what was in the tough plastic  ?

 Best wishes.  G


Nice uses Gary! :tu: :tu:

Day 20 and still going strong........today's first chore was to use the scoop to remove old wax from a candle holder before fixing a new pillar candle.......very satisfying and relaxing scooping the hardened wax off......after which relaxation, time for a conference call and a good old dose of stress :rofl:

Nice use stoer! :like: :tu: :tu:

DAY 20  I wanted to use the orange peeler as an opener, so I tried it on a bag of Labrador chow.  The results were disappointing.  I did stab it through the heavy bag, but finding the sweet spot on the blade proved difficult.  I switched to the emergency blade because Pete the Dog said this was a food emergency.  That blade finished the job, but it was far more work than a larger blade.  Pete gave it a "Declaw Down" rating.  He says dog food is serious business and requires a serious blade.


I am sure Pete appreciated your persistance, :cheers:

MCNTR DAY 20

used the scissors to cut some wool batting for a project. (only a small portion of the cutting seen here)

they weren't the best size scissors for the job but with some patience they got the task accomplished   :drink:

Day 20

Nothing to report for the Minichamp today.  It got to relax today while I had to smash my head against my keyboard in the hopes that the network team would understand my ask.  It was an effort in futility.

May the best of your past, be the worst of your future.

 Day 21     
     I am astonished at you multitooligans.  No use for your MiniChamps?  Shameful.  Didn't even clean your nasty fingernails?  Sounds like raccoon behavior.   And you, Aztec, quit bashing your head against the keyboard like that.  You'll damage the piano. 
      My fourth grade teacher knew everything.  She was a big fat old woman who had taught in a one room school.  Gay Teague.  She knew everything.  Not always correctly, but she knew it.  She explained how raccoons were the cleanest animals around.  They washed everything before they ate it.  Give them a lump of sugar and they would wash it.  Then they would have a baffled look on their little masked faces when it dissolved away. 
      Not true.  They piddle around the branch by my house.  Turning over rocks looking for salamanders, crawdads, and such.  They don't wash their food.  Or their muddy feet.  They climb on everything I leave outside and leave muddy racky tracks. 
      So don't tell me you don't have any Mini use.  Clean your paws....er, fingernails.  What did I do with my MiniChamp?  Opened a snack.  I expected dried fruit pieces.  Nope.  These things were more like jelly beans made out of fruit.  Little flat bottomed fruit nuggets.  Tasted like raisins.  Sort of.  Fixed my fingernails, too.  Best wishes.  G
 ;)

Day 21......a warning to any children out there......using clingfilm without first seeking authorisation from the other half, and then screwing it up so the wrap tears incorrectly leaving an ever decreasing amount of wrap available will leave you open to wrath, upset, and a great deal of admonishment........which then means heaving the MC out, opening the scalpel blade, skilfully slicing into your jeans before cutting the wastage away and presenting the remedied works to the aforementioned other half who acknowledges you with a long list of chores......... :ahhh

clingfilm

I read recently that storing it in the freezer makes it much easier to deal with, but have not tried it yet.

Day 20 (delayed):


Trimmed a little paper for my daughter. She did almost all the cutting but she wanted some help with a couple of tight corners.
