I’m continuing to go through the multitool site I found and there is a LOT of great ideas there that I can use. One of them gave me a quick project to do on an otherwise boring night.

The multitool.org forums has communities for all sorts of brands of multitools, including the famous Swiss Army Knives (SAKs) – you know, like MacGyver used. I don’t really like those knives too much myself because they lack pliers so I’ve stuck with Leatherman multitools, but I do have an old SAK from before I could afford a Leatherman. I took off the scales, measured them out and cut out a couple of wooden ones to replace them. Sanded them, oiled them to preserve them and glued them on. The whole process took about 45 minutes, but I quite like the result. I almost want to start using it now, but I still prefer my Leatherman Skeletool CX. Still, a nice project for a Friday night.
