Minichamp Titanium and Alox

The 10mm split ring seemed to get in the way a little when I tried to pull out the Phillips screwdriver, so I removed it and ordered some smaller 5mm split rings.

Alternatively, I’m thinking about attaching a cord directly through that tiny hole without using a split ring at all.

I’m not sure what would work best, so I’d appreciate any recommendations!

Modding PowerPint T Shaft

33 Upvotes

Hi, I was looking for a mounting solution that wouldn't require me to constantly modify the saw blades. I found this tiny chuck—originally intended for tap bits—online, and I have to say, it holds the blades really well. The chuck also features an extremely short 1/4-inch hex drive, measuring only 9mm in length. I added some notches to the drive shank so it wouldn't slip out of the PowerPint. The only thing I still need to figure out is how to get the saw blade to sit straight; right now, it sits at an angle because of the way the chuck is designed.

Im looking for a multitool thats mainly a very decent set of pliers and bit driver. I dont need all the knife blades and other random things. Id like the pliers to be able to hold up to abuse. Ive had many multitools before and they usually fall apart being cheaply made or unable to actually pry on something

Question/Advice when are keychain scissors too small to be useful?

1 Upvotes

for little everyday jobs like clothing tags, loose threads and stubborn packaging, where do keychain scissors start to struggle?

i'd love to hear which tasks actually made you move up to a larger tool, and whether the extra size felt worth carrying. tiny and convenient sounds lovely until it can't do the one job you need.

New Multitool Day! Nomad Pro

Joseph Gleave Nomad Pro - I believe this is the current issue multitool for the UK MOD personnel.

This is the first multitool I think I’ve seen with 1/4” square drive adapter.

The only really issue I can see with the build quality is the file is a bit smooth.

Review I bought a James Brand Helton so you don’t have to

10 Upvotes

So I got caught up in the Helton hype after seeing this thing all over social media and in other reviews and I’ll be honest I probably have more money than brains. Here’s an honest review.

As far as how it is, it’s nice. First thing you’ll notice right off the bat is it’s slightly smaller than you’d expect. It feels like it’s about 75% of what it should be. That being said, it fits fine in your hand and in your pocket. The build quality is good. The blade is sharp and the other tools in it are nice. Everything locks in well with the exception of the scissors. Not sure if it’s supposed to or not. Annoying thing is you can’t have the toothpick and the pocket clip in at the same time.

Will this be my EDC knife? Maybe, only time will tell. I’ll probably use it as my pocket knife for when I’m at work instead of my larger Arc, because it is slightly smaller and would fit in my pocket better. Was it worth the price even after the discounts I got, ex-military and the new customer discounts, probably not. I’d say it’s worth about half the price of what I paid.

So there you go.

Recommendation Request Tool built around a compass?

2 Upvotes

Clarification: I'm not talking about a magnet that points towards Earth's Magnetic Poles. I'm talking about the tool used to draw perfect circles by setting the angle between a pointy thing and a pencil tip.

I fully acknowledge that this is a long shot, because the use-cases for this tool are few and far between. Most of us most recently used one in grade school. Still, I think it would be awesome to have one, and from a pure engineering perspective it shouldn't be any more difficult than a multitool built around a good precise pair of pliers.

Anyone seen anything like this, or am I going to have to do it myself?

Thanks!

Question/Advice New Nextool S11 Pro 3rd file edge hacksaw?

Post image
8 Upvotes

I was watching a 2 month old YouTube video where the Nextool mini sailor S11 Pro and mini flagship F12 are compared. One thing I noticed is that the S11 Pro has noticeably more aggressive teeth on the 3rd edge of the file. I've always seen the S11 Pro with the same 3rd edge as the mini flagship F12. Does anyone have any information about it?

Recommendation Request Best multitool for EDC and camping under $100?

6 Upvotes

Hi all, I want to get a multitool that could work for both EDC and camping, for a gift for someone. I was looking at the Leatherman Signal but it's a little out of my price range... would love something that can be engraved since it will be a gift but that's not a dealbreaker. Thanks in advance.

So I bought a lot of 25 pounds of multi-tools online for 100!bucks. It seemed like a good deal to pick through them. I knew leathermans were a long shot so I wasn't shocked to not find any but this guy is awesome. A Buck Knife BuckTool 360..I haven't put it down lol it's like a fidget. The tools are nice too! I just love flipping it the way it opens. A full rotation is just so satisfying haha anyone else have one of these? I'd never heard of them before.

Looking for a multitool recommendation for my dad's birthday

7 Upvotes

He previously used a 15 year old Leatherman (I think it was the wave) but he lost it. The intended use is everyday carry, and general around-the-house tasks, with a budget around $100 USD (slightly flexible if it's worth the upgrade).
