Funny looking little MultiTool
« on: April 13, 2012, 11:16:47 PM »
I don't know how I came to own this. It must have come with some do-it-yourself thing but I sure don't remember what. Someone here may recognize it. Interesting little thing anyway.

With the plus and minus signs on the tips, I may be a battery tool.

I did a poor job of showing how big it is in the photos, but it could be covered completely by a silver dollar.

This tool is very similar to the tool that came with the Hot Wheels die cast model kits, and likely served a similar purpose. You could put on or take off all of the various parts of the model using the phillips and straight screwdriver bits, allen wrench and small socket built into the tool. How do I know this? Kids and now grandkids.

That makes sense I guess. I bought a race track for my grandson a couple of years ago and ended up putting it away for later, as I think he was a bit too young to enjoy it. I could have forgotten to put it in the box. It does look like a tool for toys more than anything more serious. Thanks, I'll check it out.
