A Leatherman addition I’ve been missing, the wrench! It's actually the second thing I've been missing since I made the Leatherman Horizontal Sheath :-)

I love my Leatherman and have it with me wherever I go, but I’ve missed one tool…
The WRENCH!
So I finally made a wrench that fits onto the Leatherman pliers and when not in use dangles on my keychain. A few instructables a go I made EDC keychain entery, this is a new favorite member in the EDC family.
Pliers VS Wrench

I use the pliers all the time, they have a nice grip.
Still, it happens that they slip and ruin my nuts (&/or bolts).
So coming up with this little addition to my Leatherman made a lot of sense. Why hasn't Leatherman or anyone else done this?
Wrench 1 nill!

I’m not a pro welder, but this task was pretty straightforward. I found a round pipe that would allow for the pliers to be inserted and the wrench inside made a snug fit and something to bite onto. Drilled a hole to attach to the keychain.
Snap to Fit…

You betcha! I've made use of this little nugget several times. Even works for some jobs without the torque of the Leatherman. When this prototype is having its last days I might use a higher quality wrench, but for the types of job, I use this for it's plenty fine.
