Hey guys,

A few weeks back I remember a post (in a response) somewhere and someone had responded saying that they modded a LM Micra, and made the scissor into pliers.

The only reason it caught my attetion was that I have a Micra that I have no use for really, not given my EDC, and I remember at the time being very curious as to how they would have possibly modded the scissors into pliers that would work in anyway given how thin the scissor blades were, even if gridning them down?

Not trying to call that person out in anyway, but curious as to how they made it work. I've looked and can't find the post I'm refering to, maybe someone else will remember it.
 
I did one using a small diamond file flat then used a fine triangular on the tip third with fine cross cuts for grip -- It works - sort of - but I would not recommend the final product too highly - a moded Micra becomes more of a heavy duty tweezer - but if you need such a thing - I'd probably look for a Juice series
Leatherman.
Peace

If it's for want of a project, I'd go for it. If I really wanted key chain pliers, the Squirt PS4 is the way to go (or Gerber equivalent).
