Author: Mark Andy <mark@sccaprepared.com>

A while back, I asked about inexpensive versions of pro toolboxes... I.e. chinese versions that had a good strong design, but where the QC might be a little more hit and miss. I didn't buy the full

Yeah, TP Tools had what sounds to be a similar three pack w/batteries for $7 at their thanksgiving thing. My dad bought a set. They're very similar (and good enough, for the goal), but not quite the

I think like with most home inspections, it really depends on the inspector you get. Personally, I've got about a 50/50 ratio on "snake charmer" to "ok" the two times I've used them... Make sure you

I don't have a brand recommendation, but rather a "Doesn't this exist?" recommendation. Aren't there battery powered versions of these? That seems like it'd be super handy. Mark ____________________

If you're using it primarily for something pretty tolerant like wheel torque, I'd just replace it with the chinese version and call it a day. Then when you leave it at an autox, you won't be particu
