For Pros Only. The Organized Truck Is the Organized Professional
0May 7, 2013
It’s 6:00 pm Friday night, the crew is picking up trash and cleaning the site as the last piece of aluminum is bent and installed on the 15 replacement windows we installed today.

Just as these same guys have, in the past, been just so willing to share images of their (tool) storage and transportation solutions - a handful began posting, well, their tool belts. A sort of Parade of Tool Belts if you will.
