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.

Union Boilermaker

Hi I have been a union boilermaker for 11 yrs and since my apprenticeship I have been required to carry a multitool.  About 2 yrs into my work history I purchased my first leatherman (leatherman super tool 200) I use this tool on a daily basis if it is the pliers fixing a mig gun to cutting tig wire to adjusting a welders carburator. I used that first leatherman till there was not a straight piece of steel left on it and every screwdriver tip was deformed and knife edge was dull. about 3yr time passed till it hit this point.
 
I simply put it in a mailing package and sent it back to the leatherman corporation with a short letter telling them how well it served me. A month later I recieved a brand new leatherman super tool 200 with case and till this day I carry and use this tool just about every day I can not tell or explain to everyone reading this how well this item has served me at work or home or on the go and the fact that they stand behind the warranty.  Its nice to know that american companys can still produce products that truly live up to its name.  Hats off to the leatherman company keep producing tools that make our country storng and defining the american can do attitude!
 
Sincerely,

P.S ive tried other brands of multi tools and none of them hit the mark that leatherman holds!
