2. You just discovered that the screw on your camera tri-pod is loose and it will not hold constant. Your options would be to quit taking pictures for the day or walk back to the car and hope to find a Phillips screw driver in the trunk or whip out your Leatherman Sideclip and tighten down the pesky loose screw.

Third. You are in the middle of nowhere and you got short in a wire to the car battery so the car won’t start. The only way to resolve this problem is to cut out the shorted portion and splice the wire collectively. Did you bring your tool box out of the garage? No, but you do have your trusty Leatherman Sideclip with the wire cutter and pliers. Cut the short out, strip the ends of the wires and splice them collectively. Now you are on your way.
