Oh, that one looks good! Hopefully you didn't have to cut it half because you had to share it!  :D

Nope, all mine. I just cut it to make it easier to eat. I probably shouldn’t have eaten the whole thing, though.

Day 20:

I finished modifying my Pioneer X and (with tremendous effort) reassembled it. See if you can guess what the mod was!

Hint: There’s something not visible in the photo that would be visible on a stock Pioneer X.

Yep!  Did you replace with scissors from a 91mm and drill out the pivot to 3mm?

My new favorite power tool.
:like: I have battery-powered Black & Decker tools that have served me well.

Needed a good cleaning...
That's a benefit of Alox: no liners mean fewer places for detritus to gather.

Old silver Farmer X welcomes the new kid...
:like: Hope I can order a pile of their Alox Bantams before too long...

Farmer X with me, at work, today.
What is the logo? If it was put on Bantams, I might be in trouble.

Day 20  :drink:
:like: I'll help out with that stash! :drink:

Used blade to cut some ham for my sandwhich...
Ham goes on my favorite sandwich, which may be my all-time favorite food as well. :cheers:

Another great day, y'awl. I especially like the Alox and coffee photos! :2tu:

Day 20

Today we'll take a look at the Wenger Watchmaker. I still don't know if the Timex accompanying it has a pressure-fit case back. :think:

The black carrier Bantam was used to shorten the wrapper on a roll of nicotine pouches. I took an action shot, only to find it didn't work out. But today marks two months without tobacco for me!

If I pay five figures for something, it better have wings or a foundation!

Farmer X….

I don’t recall where I ordered it from. It was overseas (I’m in the US…) and I got it before they were released (at least in colors…) here in the US.

Been several years now…

Sorry!!

A little spa treatment for Berry.

She got a bath, oil in the joints, a proper strop, and a final wipe down of the blade with isopropyl alcohol.

All set and ready to go.
