This tool does it all. With the exception of opening wine bottles you are good to go. And it comes with a nice leather case.
Things need to be fixed and this little tool can do most everything that will happen in your life. Until you can afford a real tool box this will be your go-to tool.
How did I fix the alarm system power down, the Leatherman. How do I tighten loose door knobs, the Leatherman.
When I worked in the plants I wore a fanny pack filled with tools. It was against UAW rules to work in the plants, so I had to hide this shit. I sometimes wore the Leatherman on a belt as I could explain it was for investigation purposes only. Next to the Blackberry and the cell phone it did not stand out.
As Martha Somebody would say, it is a great thing to have. And it fits in your purse, pack or junk drawer. And it comes in different sizes, mine was the largest when I got it 15 years ago. Yea, they last a long time.
Get one, you will be happy.
I carry a tiny Vise Grips pliers when HVACing. It stays close by my dash during the off-season, just so it knows I haven't forgot about "him".
ReplyDeleteBD needs that leatherman here in the land of the Dog Eaters. I glad you took that back to civilization with you but I am having Shemp issues for repairs. I haven't locked them in the kitchen yet like you did so maybe they think I am a easy mark. You had them runnin scared.

(I wonder, is that the real BD, it say Anonymous, or Maybe A None A Mouse, I am not sure, be careful, be Very Careful in a full way, and in a Moose Way. I am not sure what that reaLLy means. Tweak.)(Tweak means "send a rescue helicopter as soon as possible to the prearranged coordinates, as dire stress is indicated, and include a gourmet breakfast and a great ape who understands sign language or a small human who knows how to pretend to be a gorilla. Remember that I prefer my scram-bled eggs with Jalapeño flavored cheese and if you have got it, sausage.")(Oh, I forgot to mention OJ, I prefer a slight amount of pulp. And I prefer pulp from the orange rendering process, not the paper manufacturing kind.)
ReplyDeleteHe he ha ha ho ho
DeleteYes, that is the real Big Daddy, he walked into the apartment when I had all the Shemps locked in the kitchen. I used my Leatherman in China many times, including at the end turning the sprayer nozzle in the tub.
ReplyDeleteBD just cannot get as seriously mean and nasty as I can. And when I decide to rip your ass, you will never forget that experience.
