DT Fan Posted September 21 Share Posted September 21 Last fall I lost two pair of knippex pliers, well one pair is side-cutters. About lost my mind looking for them. Broke down and bought new ones because I didn't want to be without them. Today, opened the box to the left of the seat in the combine, lo and behold, there they are! The other thing that I found this week is my magnetic beer-holder that makes mowing more fun. It wasn't gone near as long but mowing without it is a real pain. Between no holder and that lift-link breaking on the 782, Sunday's mowing was a real drag! 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike newman Posted September 21 Share Posted September 21 ...always good to locate lost tools.....especially tools of "Knipex'' quality.... You will never lose some crap Chinese shifter spanner....as are 'provided' in the Excavator that I currently am the Captain of.... but two years ago..prior to the Chinese shifters, I had my own 12 inch American Crescent on board...this for shutting off the remote valves etc...and I managed to lose it...I spent hours walking back and forth looking for it..(I was windrowing forestry slash...)..never did find it........ ...and your ''magnetic beer holder '' DT Fan....is this for Magnetic Beer ...or have I missed something here...??

sandhiller Posted September 21 Share Posted September 21 I think it is a law of nature that once something is lost, it will stay lost until you have replaced it with new. Only then will it turn up in an obvious place It is aruond here anyway😄 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the end I get bragging rights in that I own TWO of whatever tool I temporarily lost. 2 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vtfireman85 Posted September 22 Share Posted September 22 Give up on the Knipex side cutters, get a pair of Klein D2000-28 side cutters, much nicer than the Knipex. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MTB98 Posted September 22 Share Posted September 22 Never a bad thing to have more Knipex tools. Now you have a nice set to just leave in the combine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
