Duluth tool bags--Arrived !

[David Ilvedson]

Tom,



I've got a lot of tool kits relegated to the back of the shop...I think the Jailhouse is working better than all the others...to this point.   I have the tuning/voicing/flashlights on the black side and all the tools in the side with the decal.   Nothings perfect and it has gotten too heavy, so I carry another doctor's bag for the straight-forward appointments, like the University and commericial accounts.   I can carry them both when I need to...

Now I'm more interested in what should go in the tuning kit...

Dear Newtonville occupants,

            

The Duluth “jailhouse “ tool bag arrived .today.

            

            I think I’m in love—caveat here – You could fill a mini van with the tool cases I’ve loved and tossed in these 30+ years in the trade.

            I spent 30 minutes transferring tools from my old aluminum case and everything seems to have an accessible home in the bag.

            With some refining to do I’m at 20 lbs.

            

            I implemented a suggestion from a fellow tech. Pick up the tool and if you can’t remember the last time you used it, remove it to the backup kit in the car.

            

            Among items removed:  Dale Erwin autographed grand hammer head extractor, small folding hacksaw, a few of my less popular regulating tools .A third combination handle. I’m now a lean mean tuning machine

            

Pics to follow after I have my Captain Crunch while watching the TIVO of the Red Sox clinching game-------AGAIN !
