Bro. The way he handled those digital calipers caused me physical pain. Some advice from a machinist to a mechanic. When storing your calipers always make sure they are slightly open. NEVER store them completely closed. Also, those calipers came with a case. Please, please find it and use it. That's a somewhat precision measuring device that you are tossing around like a set of pliers. And since they are digital, always have spare batteries with you. I actually keep a set of dial calipers just in case the battery goes dead and I don't have a replacement.

As a machinist it hurt me. I couldn't believe they weren't in case. I bet they are off.

I don't know where you live, but it's quite common for mechanics/service technician's in the US that they have to buy/bring their own tools and boxes to get the job done. Here in Europe we get everything from clothes to tools for free from the company we work for!

Don, you should make some contacts next time you're in Japan...Become a distributor and with all your contacts in the motorsports industries Japan has some really high quality tools like Kyoto. Most Japanese tools are hard to get in the states as they don't have the business model like Cornwell, Mac, Matco Truck routes. Also, Knipex is a German tool company that actually makes Snap-on's dikes, needle nose, duck bill pliers, snap ring pliers etc. but they are considerably cheaper.
