file/karabiner holder thing....

[kempo79]

hi all,

i was doing forestry last year and got pissed off with carrying files ect in my pockets, i would end up leaving them in the ground near the fuel and end up losing/leaving them so came up with this..... not sure if it was worth the half hour..

Good idea, but won't the files fall out?

[Swampster]

i agree, good idea but if the files don't fall out and you trip/fall, where might the files go?

Our stihl combi can has spanner and file holders built in.

My old boss had a short piece of plastic BT duct which was made in to a holder it held all the files, spare plug/starter cord, small screw driver and saw spanner/screwdriver. When we did a refresher course it when with us, the examaner could not beleave what we had in it because the other pair on the course had a big plastic box full of allsorts.It was then we said which pair do's forestry. Sorry I have got no pictures of it but I have just found a piece of alley tube I'am planning to make 1 will post pictures soon

its made of about 5mm rubber it grips the files, screwdriver, ect real nice! if in doubt just push them further through the rubber.

made it out of a series 3 land rover mud flap. shhh..

I agree Files with no handle stuck in leg may be he hangs them on his cans?????

[kempo79]

true a file in the leg would not be fun. yeah clipped on the side of my non stihl combi can with a karabiner.

good to haul the odd tool up a tree too!
