Some very nice pics Barry and GB!

Love the remodel tasks, GB, and I have used my Spirit in most of the scenarios you describe. Tough MT!

Thanks, MrTJ  :cheers:  it was helpful again today hanging shelves and cutting some hanging rod lengths.  I also set the last drywall anchor into the wrong hole (I drilled one by mistake). Also pulled out some other outlets to check the wiring.

Day 7

Sprinkler adjustment. The small flag head is the perfect size for the adjustment screw.

Day 8

More scissor action taking a tag off a new pair of running shoes! Worked great and the shoes were excellent on this morning's 10 mile run.

Thanks, Barry.   :hatsoff: 

I could’ve used any needle nose pliers for some work today, but why go to the tool bag when it’s already on my belt. Whoever painted this deck was too lazy to clean out old nails and even newer screws that fell between the boards.  Picked them out.

 :cheers: it sure is.  I’m pretty glad to have it. I’ve been able to accomplish pretty much everything I’ve needed to do with it and a select few other tools.

One of the nicest tools on the Spirit, in my opinion, the full size Phillips driver!
