You're a brave man if you carry a $25k total station in a truck toolbox.

It's insured and when you consider that I also have the pieces for the machine control on the equipment you can bump that number up quite a bit. Of course this isn't your run of the mill toolbox

I'd recommend making it much more secure before putting anything in it. They aren't that robust.

Oh gosh so much stuff, and no matter how big my toolbox gets I'll never have enough room for everything I want to put in there

Pretty much any of this is required assuming you have room, I have most of it

Also, ear muffs for hearing protection while shooting (I shoot a lot), various hammers, folding chair, box of fuses, gloves, foldout light for tire change at night, never enough duct tape and WD-40, and shite paper. I think most ppl overlook shite paper but if you gotta use it once it's worth it


I'm sure there's more that I can't even think of

ETA: oh and PB blaster, if you do any amount of mechanical work the shite is more clutch than Michael Jordan
