Have you ever thought about how much your tools are really costing you?

What you pay for the initial purchase of your tools is usually only the beginning as the total cost of ownership comes with many direct and indirect fees. Think about repair and maintenance, calibration and batteries, the time it takes to organize tools, the time it takes to process repairs.

To calculate the true cost of your tools, you’ll then need to consider both direct and indirect costs. The purchase price is often only the tip of the iceberg.
