The Matco man really made my day when he showed up with this gem on his truck. A 5 drawer, rolling toolbox thats perfect 1/5 scale size. Not sure why but im super excited to add this to my RC work area. All my tools just kinda lay where they fall, so hopefully this will help sort the chaos a bit. Added the soup can for a size refrence.?20191210_173534.webp

That thing is nice ? how.much did it cost y ?
 
I bought my wife a mini snap on top and bottom box when we were dating, to use as a jewelry box.... she didnt like it lol. So it sits in the man cave full of scale tools. It's a good bit smaller then yours. Very cool indeed ?

I bought them years ago now, don't regret it for a second. The digitals are just too good not to have when your building engines.

Agree, some things are OK for home use but that's about it. And yeaa..... never cheap on torque wrenches, not only have cheap ones been known to fail, but some can be off as far as 15%, and vary with every bolt.

I have access to a torque checker, gets sent out every year to be calibrated. Anything off by more then about a pound gets sent back for service. Tbh Since I got the new digital wrenches I haven't had an issue. They auto calibrate to zero at every turn on. Really sucks when you go into angle mode, have to let them sit flat on the bench so the calibrate. But they are dead on every time, so small price to pay I guess.

I have one digital, and one old school wrench. My digital one is definitely slick and much quicker
