  • I figured out how to make the bit holder fit well on the Victorinox knife. I also made a special device that allows you to carry a bit holder along with a knife

    Really good idea that can be used in a lot of situations. I also like that you show how to do these things with minimal cheap tools. Uh, and Victorinox should hire you for ideas.

    If doing this hot glue mod at home, dip the screwdriver head in oil first.

    You can buy a 1/4 magnetic socket.
    You can also buy special base shortened bits along with a stripcarrier for them.
    The keychain bit is brilliant though.

    This is a great idea but BE CAREFUL. You can’t use much torque or you will bend/break your bottle opener & ruin the knife…

    • @garyp.7501
      @garyp.7501 Před měsícem +4

      Or worse, bend the knife and prevent it from opening/closing any blades on that side. Clearly a low torque tool.

    • @mrhalfstep
      @mrhalfstep Před měsícem

      I think some models have the flathead driver designed to rest/lock at the 90 degree angle specifically to allow you to get more torque. Depends on the model, I guess.

    I have been making these for a long time. I insert a small magnet in the adapter fill the adapter with J-B Weld coat the VIC screwdriver with spray cooking spray insert the screwdriver in the adapter and let dry overnight. I am going to make one using hot glue and see how I like it. It would be a lot easier to make with hot glue.

  • @RpMcMurphy_
    @RpMcMurphy_ Před 14 dny

    Try an epoxy putty instead of hot glue, pack and insert bottle opener just as you did. Appropriately prepare surfaces. Clean up is a little more involved but it will be stronger. Note: obviously remove can opener before it cures. A quick dip in acetone will decrease sticking to can opener. Jb weld steel stick would be good. Clean up with acetone, let putty cure.

  • @mrhalfstep
    @mrhalfstep Před měsícem

    I love this idea. Does the bead chain hold up to much stress? It seems a bit delicate. If it is fairly strong, it would be a great thing to dangle over the edge of your pocket to provide easy access to the knife, as a second benefit.
    It was driving me nuts watching the chained holding device flop around while you were driving the screws. Is there any chance that the chain and/or bit could be captured in some way by the corkscrew while the driver bit was being used, just to keep it a little more out of the way?

    Just keep a bit driver in your pocket. And bits in your 5th pocket. Your idea is novel, but wouldn't handle any serious torque at all.

  • @ComUnSas

    I've never understood the fascination with jamming bits into multitools. They make for terrible screwdrivers, usually off centre, awkward handles, badly balanced, terrible bits (Leatherman). How much extra bulk or weight does a separate ratchet driver really add

      I thought that but more importantly I doubt the body of the knife will take high torque either. It’s only some rivets holding it together so you’d need to be a little careful in those situations.
