Admiring My Tool

Posted by Mark | Filed under Life

I carry a Leather­man Squirt P4 and once in a while, I take out of my pocket and set it on my desk. Either because it’s pok­ing my leg or I’m using it for some rea­son or another. Today I had it sit­ting out and was con­cen­trat­ing on our cur­rent big project, head­phones on and […]
