  • What's inside a factory-level mechanic's toolbox? We had Olly Stone give us a tour of his spot in the Monster Energy/Pro Circuit/Kawasaki pit, which includes a custom-fabricated cart/work bench. Stone has an affinity for Snap-On wrenches, titanium T-handles, carbon fiber trays, Japanese measurement tools, and even a few handmade items that are just as trick as anything on Austin Forkner's KX250.

    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.

      When I was an apprentice mechy at Scunthorpe steelworks in the 80's we were all issued with Starrett squares and rule's. All the mic's in the stores were Moore & Wright.... I actually still have all my gear from back then - not much need for a 2" BSW Snail Brand open ended spanner at home though :D

      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.

    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.
