Awesome Tool roll collaboration with Lemolo Bags!! These things rule and are super versatile. They are space great for Brooks style saddle loops but will strap on any saddle, handlebars, racks, toptubes, pretty much any where you wanna stick it. And, they come stocked with Full Size tools!! From the tiniest Park allen wrench up to 8mm, 8-11 mm box style Park wrenches, Topeak full sized chain tool, two Tire levers, a green spoke wrench and even that chainring bolt tool no one ever has around! Also has little bungees for keepin a tube of your choice in the roll. I couldn't be more excited on how these came out, Elias at Lemolo is amazing and really nailed this. They are $120 fully loaded with tools and ready to ship.
Tool - Schism
I know the pieces fit cause I watched them fall away
Mildewed and smoldering, fundamental differing,
Pure intention juxtaposed will set two lovers souls in motion
Disintegrating as it goes testing our communication
The light that fueled our fire then has burned a hole between us so
We cannot see to reach an end crippling our communication.
I know the pieces fit cause I watched them tumble down
No fault, none to blame it doesn't mean I don't desire to
Point the finger, blame the other, watch the temple topple over
To bring the pieces back together, rediscover communication
The poetry that comes from the squaring off between,
And the circling is worth it
Finding beauty in the dissonance
There was a time that the pieces fit, but I watched them fall away
Mildewed and smoldering, strangled by our coveting
I've done the math enough to know the dangers of our second guessing
Doomed to crumble unless we grow, and strengthen our communication
Cold silence has a tendency to atrophy any sense of compassion
Between supposed lovers
Between supposed lovers
And I know the pieces fit
Tool is one of my favourites. Schism is one of their radio-friendly songs that has become quite popular with even non-Tool fans.

What does the word photography literally mean?
The word photography derives from the Greek photos ("light") and graphe ("drawing"). The term was coined by Hercules Florence, a French painter and inventor, who used it in his diary to describe the process. Photos is also the root of words such as photon or photophobia (fear of light).
My latest Craig's list find. Just needed something for the basement to keep everything organized. Paid 60$ did i get hosed? It's got ball bearing slides and was made in the USA. meh
Out with the old.
I got this a few years ago at costco for probably about 30 bucks. When I showed it to my neighbor he said, Yeah, my wife bought me that same pussy set for christmas last year.
Well...some parts of it are cool...the hole saw, for example, has worked quite well over the years.
But mostly it really sucks. Almost every time I have used one of the smaller drill bits I have broken it (probably why they give you ten of each) and unless I’m drilling into soft wood they break before they even make the hole. Don’t even think about drilling into metal with them.
The screw tips (screwdriver bits for screwguns) have all broken the first time out of the box as well.
So...this was a good lesson on you get what you pay for when it comes to tools and stuff. Yes it was cheap...but for the most part, it’s cheap crap. I’m sure that an a few more years the case will be in the trash and the few surviving bits and stuff will just be in my toolbox.
In my defense...I bought this when I was a rookie carpenter having just recently started working for Dan and at that time when I bought stuff like this or circular saw blades or whatever I was working with the idea that I would buy the cheaper stuff in more varieties as I learned what I like I would replace those tools with the good stuff. Seemed like a good idea at the time. Like, for example my ten dollar pack of circular saw blades that I bought back then too. It has about half a dozen high speed steel blades in various tooth patterns for different purposes. “Great” I thought...”I’ll use these and decide which one I like and then buy that one in a good carbide tipped blade.” Well...I tried a couple of them out. The cheap crap blades tended to get hot and the teeth dulled making the blade hotter and so on. I don’t even think I got 5 or 10 cuts out of them before they were so dull I was afraid they would set the wood on fire rather than cut it. So I finally switched (on this project actually) to the multi-purpose carbide tipped blade that game with the darn saw in the first place and I haven’t looked back since. It’ll probably be years before I even have to get that blade sharpened...or just get a new one for ten bucks.
So what’s the lesson here?
Avoid cheap tools.
They break. They wear out. And they make the job harder to do before they go.
That’s why my tools now tend to be Yellow and Black :o)

New tests/research using 'Tool Hide,' the CNC surfacing technique developed by Associated Fabrication that can respond to an infinite variety of surface curvatures.
This is a set of tools to adjust valve clearances on Honda Magna motorcycles. It consists of an unusual looking clamp that pulls the camshaft up tight on one end, and a very elongated 10mm box wrench.
Aperture Wrench Shows What Happens When Photographer Designs Tools
What happens when a photographer designs a tool? The Aperture Wrench is what happens.
“Inspired by the apertures in cameras, the idea was formed to create a wrench to fit any size nut,” photographer and designer Jordan Steranka ...
Just a few of my multi tools...

Tool steel cut with a jeweler's saw (patience... patience...) from larger stock, then ground on a bench grinder. The one on the far left was forged by heating with a torch and hitting with a hammer. Then they were annealed by heating to a dull red with the torch and air cooled. Next step will be to file them to refine shapes and buff.
My favorite one is the half-round third from the right. Actually, all of the small stock worked out well. Especially since it was the first time I ever used a bench grinder.
