Thanks for the kind words all. I quite love the utilitarian versatility of 
the Clementine. 

I found a full sized silky biking and was convinced of their excellence. 
The Pocket boy is just as good! If you want another fun pocket-sized saw 
that is even smaller check out. It'd be great for cutting small kindling.

 Another install I like is a Crane E-ne mounted to the downtube shifter

Re: [RBW] Most Discreet Bell Placement

2023-07-12 Thread Mackenzy Albright 
Eric - I am a museum technician. I use my clementine to bring tools do the 
different gallery spaces I work in. The bag is a aerial tote with an 
assortment of tools I use for exhibition installations. Furthest left to 
right  is a Silky Pocket Boy saw, Snap-on Ratcheting screw driver, Svord 
pocket knife, occidental pouch with a flush cut pliers, small klien 
scissors, higonokami knife, pica pencil, and spot for the ratcheting screw 
driver. 

I have a bunch of other things in the bag like a 12v milwaukee drill, 
hammer, tape measure, pliers, various scrapers, square, etc etc etc. 

I've thought about building a bike with a Clydesdale and attaching a 
milwaukee packout kit to it.

I’m intrigued by the assortment of items in your handlebar bag. Mobile 
hairdresser? Dog groomer? Other? Inquiring minds want to know ...
