Not bad. That Snap On wrench is a *little* older... I would send it in for calibration be fore I used it.

Those are some damn nice shoes. Can I ask where you got them?????

Where exactly do I send it in for calibration, and do I have to pay for that? I probably won't be using it for a little bit so I have some time on my hands...

The shoes I got from a Puma store inside a KC mall. They had a few different Ferrari shoes, and the shoes I had in leather, but they had laces instead of the Velcro. I thought that the suede looked a little racier, so I bought them. The petal feel when wearing them is amazing. They are extremely light and have a carbon fiber sole. Makes driving a breeze.

Damn.... no Puma store near me.

Your local Snap On dealer should be able to send the wrench in for calibration... not sure of the cost though.

Yeah, the Snap On wrench looks like a nice find, if you can get it calibrated.

A quick Google reveals this site:

http://www.teamtorque.com/main.html

Looks like they can do Snap On wrenches... and I'd bet that they charge less than your local Snap On tool guy would.

Here's their price list:

$32? Not bad, assuming it's a click-type wrench (I don't know if it is or not).
