<p class="MsoNormal" align="left">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...</p>
