I was using them to take apart monitor arms, cut boxes, etc.

... disassemble the corporate helicopter fleet, clean the salmon & beef steaks for the team's BBQ lunch, tighten the bolts on the hatchway to the HVAC-access roof, recalibrate our GPS markers for the DST changeover... just the usual.

    Yeah, when I carried it all the time I was fixing shit left and right.

    What it's really good for is all the little annoyances you notice day to day that aren't worth a trip to the garage in the moment.

    Door knob slightly loose in the back bedroom? Fixed next time you walk in. Drawer sticking? Take care of it now instead of forcing it and forgetting about it later. You don't even realize how much of that stuff there is until you have the multitool handy at all times.

    And the bit driver really is a game changer. You can get a ratcheting version now too.
