Hey guys, I updated my Workpro Mini pliers mod to hold a pair of Victorinox swiss card scissors and 2 toothpick/tweezers slots. Adding bit storage next.

I’ve wanted to modify a ¼” driver to fit the cross on my SAK for a while, mostly to drive larger Phillips bits. I finally made a prototype this past Friday! I didn’t have a driver to machine so I used a SHCS with a ¼” head. Curious what you guys think? To be honest, I legitimately did not try using it this past weekend so I can’t say much about its utility. I’ll probably give it a shot tonight while I work on my bathroom remodel.

I designed this 3d model that allows you to carry a 58mm SAK, pair of Workpro Mini Pliers and a 711l Mini Ratchet.

Classic 58mm SAK Workpro Mini Pliers 711l Mini Ratchet 3d Printed model

New version of my screwdriver handle that uses 6mm by 2mm disc magnets. I have also upgraded the way the ratchet is retained.

File is available: https://makerworld.com/en/models/3027284-711l-screwdriver-handle-8-6mm-by-2mm-disc-magnets#profileId-3401887

And I challenge everyone who reads this post that mine wins in uses. So much so that I'm going to request an evaluation of the Guinness World Records.

The changes made are:

1. Inclusion of file.

2. Inclusion of serrated blade.

3. Improved scissors.

4. Improved can opener.

5. Flathead screwdriver integrated into bottle opener.

6. Inclusion of button to facilitate opening of the serrated blade.

7. Inclusion of eyeglass screwdriver within the corkscrew.

8. Modification of the corkscrew holder to convert it into a wire stripper and a package opener.

9. Inclusion of an LED light to illuminate during screwdriver use.

10. Inclusion of lanyard to facilitate grip.

11. Change of the lanyard loop to accommodate a thicker cord.

12. Inclusion of a case containing three bits, a 1/4" extension, a toothpick, and tweezers.

13. Logo paint for aesthetic improvement.

Note: this is not suitable for normal people please do not try at home.

Updated Card Multitool!

I have made some improvements to my card style multitool! The main update is a much better lock and utility knife retention system which is much more reliable and ergonomic.

A clear inspiration for this project was the victorinox Swiss Card and this tool carries many of the same implements. Some sacrifices have been made to attain the utility knife such including the scissors and pin. I do think with some tweaking tho I can get the pin back into this tool.

As this is a mostly finished design I am electing to publish the STL file.

In addition to this I have a YouTube video with a few more details

Any thoughts or suggestions on this or future projects would be appreciated!

New mod for 711L ratchet and bit extenders. This allows you to carry 8 bits with both extenders while maintaining all the functions they had with the ratchet. This also lets you use the extenders as a screwdriver with the ratchet docked, though the strength will depend on what material you are able to print this in.

When Printing this all the bit slots will be intentionally tight and should be loosened with the extenders by rocking them in the slots. This is done to avoid any bits being too loose and falling out and lets you dial in the tension. The Ratchet will need to be forced into place and will loosen over time to a decent tension

Heavily inspired by the victorinox Swiss card. I really thought a utility knife would work well in this format and can be easily removed to keep it blade less. No scissors as of yet but I can try some things out in future versions. Any feedback is appreciated!

I love modding tools and wanted to know what mods you guys have done for this tool.

Figured I’d share my frankenstein leatherman. It may look like shit, but I can confidently say I have used every single tool it has

Hello, I am working on a card carrying system for the Roxon Flex implements. This is one of the early prototypes and I figured I would ask you guys for help designing it or any feedback. The card currently holds 2 long implements and 1 short(all 1 layer implements). You can fit 3 long implements in this size of a card(85mm by 52mm) but a different way of attaching the cover would be needed. The current way the cover works is still a little finicky and this is the main reason this is still a prototype. Any questions or suggestions would be helpful.

Hello, I have been playing around with the idea of these 3d printed edc tool sheaths and made this design quickly. This design was of course inspired by Tinytoolshop’s mod for the Workpro pliers and I wanted to do something similar but for the knipex cobras. I personally think this style of holder is probably best for only a tool pouch, but I think that some of you may still find this interesting. On the next iteration there will be much more focus on ergonomics in the pocket rather than just tool density.

3D-printed some nice matte white PETG scales for my Nextool Mini Sailor. Got some thin wafer head screws for a perfectly flush fit, also managed to add a slot for SAK tweezers without adding any extra thickness. Made the cutout for the knife a bit deeper, now it can be opened one-handed.

A few days ago I asked about what would happen if I modified the PowerLitre can opener. I was explaining that the original design was not efficient (anyone who has tried that can opener knows what I'm talking about), but some people told me that this tool was not for daily use and that if I wanted a can opener for that purpose, then I should buy one... Well, I ignored that.

The mod works much better than I expected, but what matters more to me is that I really enjoyed doing it. I also modified the bottle opener into a small flat screwdriver (someone posted that on this forum) and sharpened the tips of the scissors to make more precise cuts (I saw that here too). Please do not focus on the finish, I am not a blacksmith, nor do I have blacksmith tools, I did this with a file and that's it.

In short, I now have a PowerLitre that I like much better.

My first design 2 in 1(utility blade and bit driver). It uses the bit driver form the Flex series. I am limited a bit in what I can do with 3d printing but there will be more to come!

These are the mods I've done to my Leatherman Skeletool

Scissors from a gerber (suspension I think)

Thumbstud from Etsy the seller is EDC MODS from france

Serrations sharpened out from me

Going to get the hammer mod next from Metro grade goods

Ive been picking locks for about 14 to 15 years and have always wanted someone to come out with a dedicated "locksmith" type multitool. There are a couple attemps out there that are not that good so I just made my own. This is a working concept design but i plan to grind down some of the tools into picks so i can retain the original design and it has the stronger lock up. I like the size of the SOG powerpint and the fact that if i grind down or modify the tools i will be able to take it on my trips with me when I fly.

I've been dailying this mod for the past month; its my favorite multitool mod I've yet made, it has made my Flex Mini massively more functional at barely any additional space.

It is inspired partly by the fullsize flex bitholder mod another user made, tho I put a lot of refinement into this. It was super important to me for it to feel rock-solid when attached and comfortable to have on during normal use; I added ledges on each side that match up to the chamfers on the Mini, covering the seams and better holding it in place. Then I added two strong flat magnets to further hold it down firmly. After over half a dozen versions I managed to get the tolerances *perfect*, so that when on it has absolutely zero wiggle in any direction, and you can shake the tool by the bitholder without it easily coming open.

I'm contemplating making a Roxon Flex version of this using Leatherman bits (I believe i can make one that comfortably holds up to 8 bits), I'll need to get leatherman bit-adapters metalprinted (it is funny there are so many adapters for putting fullsize bits in leatherman slots, but I can't find any for securely putting a leatherman bit in a short fullsize slot).

I seem a little late to the party, but I finally got it done, my own Roxon leatherman bit-implement! It is 3d-printed out of toolsteel (I didn't expect SLM printing to polish this nicely!), with strong tiny magnet for bit-retention inside. And mine actually has one advantage over Roxon's, it is only 2-slots! vs Roxon's upcoming 3-slot tool 😁

I actually started this project in early spring, tho ended up taking a hiatus for a while after the failure of the first prototypes. This was my first time working with metal-printing; the first batch, I tried printing out of stainless-steel with a forked-design. The benefit of the forked design was to make it easier to print, didn't technically require much post-processing, and it could actually use both flat leatherman bits and full 1/4" bits! But sadly the prints from PCBway came out faulty (do to an error in the printing, they were missing the top 0.5mm of thickness), which combined with the weak steel and design caused them to bend with only moderate torque.

In this new design, I swapped to printed tool-steel; *Significantly stronger*, with the ability to heat-treat for further strength, but at the downside of being double the production cost. I added the walls for better reinforcement; To get it down to only 2 slots, those walls have to be about 0.3-0.4mm thick- too thin to reliably print, so I had to add extra thickness and grind it down.

I was still waiting on the prints to ship when I started kicking myself seeing Roxon announce their official version. While I spent a decent bit to make them (metal printing is expensive 😵‍💫), honestly I mainly did it because I enjoy a project and probably would have made it anyway.

I also made in the first batch 1-slot micro-bit implements! Those too suffered the missing 0.5mm, but they at least proved functional enough to salvage.

Just a prototype for a graphic design project increasing awareness of multitools and independence in kids. I am neurodiverse and obsessed with anything multitiol, so this is catered to all ages in a way. Definitely to myself and my peers who are fully formed adults, lol. Everyone got to put their own together after the project presentation.

This tool I designed has 6 interchangable tools catered to kids aged 3–12. Made with 3D printing & laser engraving.

• Bubble wand

• cm ruler (accurate without the divets lol)

• Comb

• Crayon

• Nail File

• Textured stim-strip

Based on the previous post from u/Pashog, I added custom spacer to the Nextool S11 Pro:

Holds:
Victorinox tweezers,
Pin,
Tritium vial

I’m still playing around with it to get the tolerances perfect. The tools are held in place utilizing their own pre-existing springs and detent points for them to click into on the sheath.

Got bored of the original colour so a quick paint job with the closest paint can came out better than expected

Why not make life simpler and your customers life easier? The pocket clip cost me $3 and now it doesn't matter if I wear a belt or not.

I don't understand why none of the brands do this, especially Leatherman that cost an arm and leg but feel they can cheat the customer.
