Tool Tales

December 2007

My Uncle and His Ideas

My Uncle got it into his head to drag me along so I could help him renovate this old house he bought. Well, to make a very long story short, my job was to rip out all the carpet in the bedrooms. But when I went to do so, there was no tool for me to rip the carpet up with! Thank goodness I had my Leatherman Surge because the combination of pliers, knife blades, and a few other things, I had ripped out all the carpet in those rooms within a time frame of one hour! I have since worn out my Surge, but I recently got a c303 knife and it is great. Thanks Leatherman!

Tell Us Your Tale

OK, you voyeur, you. Enough of reading other people's stories. It's time you told your own tale of gripping heroism or even just neat DIY'ism. We know there's a Shakespeare in you somewhere. Don't make us use the Steens to find it.
