Can you guys recommend a multi tool to work with dynafit screws? I just installed quiver killers so a #2 phillips is required, plus a flat head and the torx 10 for the top plate. I would also like it to have a pozi 3 since that is what a lot of people I ski with have for mount screws. I am kind of disappointed looking through the options on line. I was thinking of the dakine nano and supplementing the bits. any thoughts?

thanks!

Mike

While searching around I stumbled across this site which has a ton of options but not really anything for someone who just wants one.
http://www.pocketscrewdrivers.com/6_Pie ... 0-6800.htm

Looks they do custom mini screw diver sets as well

You guys should should print up some ones with your logo and all the dynafit bits in it.

cheers

Mike

one of our employees did a bunch of research and found a multi-tool he thinks is the best. I can't remember which, I'll check it out at the store today. We got in some of the Brooks Range multi tools which are lightweight and not too expensive.

On long backcountry missions I try to fix or tighten everything before leaving, but have made some creative repairs at times. Mostly with duct tape and bailing wire. The screwdriver issue is tough because many bindings require a longer reaching driver shaft. And the multi drivers like this I've found are heavier than I want to bring along.

Which model of brooks range tool have you got? The models I have seen online, I was not impressed with their weight. I am looking for something under 3oz if not under 2.

Thanks for the heads up on the length, I had forgotten to consider that.

I ended up going with this:
https://www.swisstechstore.com/product. ... =86&page=1

and to get a little more leverage I added a magnetic 2" extension and a couple other bits with this:
http://www.acefactorystore.com/proddeta ... d=2294858#

Now I carry, T10, POZI3, Phillips and flat head and it even has an emergency light, which I did not really want in fairness all for 1 3/4 ounces!

Hope it helps others.
