I get the purpose of the box. It's built well , it has a few good built in features and is easy to use. I've tried to get it into my van space and used it a few times but for me personally, it doesn't have a permanent home in van.

On first appearances, you ask your self the question 'Plastic Box with a blow torch' But be reassured the box is made from Polypropylene with a fire retardant compound.. I t easily hold both 15mm and 22mm pipe to enable soldering without the need for improvised and often unstable securing of pipe. The box has plenty of space to hold a blow torch in the the upright position, when not using the torch. There is also room to store solder, fluxes and fittings that you may be preparing to solder. It is bright Yellow and stands out, preventing bot losing it nd also tripping over it..
My first thoughts was its a lot of money for plastic box. But having used it and seen that its is not just standard plastic, but infact made from Fire retardant Polypropylene, i think that helps to justify the price..
I think it will enable safer and more stable soldering in the future, and looks far more professional than a make do method of holding the copper pipe. With the pipe held securely you can happily leave it yo cool without any fear of it falling over.
Overall an excellent product, as you would expect from Monument.

Hi, this is Andy Bennett from Bennett Safe Gas. And this is going to be a Tool Talk review of a new Monument tool. And it is. This is the sweat box by Monument designed by Monument Masters. And if you see inside there, it does say Made in Britain, which is what I like. A silly thing, the bottom here, little rubbers, nice little edition. I wasn't expecting that. I've seen others with it. But that's kitchen work top, which I've got here, stick it down and it's that little rubber is just going to protect those horrible, shiny surfaces that we come across. Obviously, you'll put your gas in there. This little thing here, it's only short, so that's where your flux brush goes. You can keep some fixings, tools, whatever, fittings, your solder in the bottom. It's a nice light, comfortable top to carry around. Okay. Here it is. Brilliant little design this. That clip there is to hold pipe. This here, heat-resistant rubber protects the case. I'm going to struggle here. What you do is you lift this up. I've only got short pieces. Rest your copper in there. And there you go, it's holding. Obviously, you wouldn't do it as close as that. You'd have it a bit longer. But there you go. You can show where it's rotating around and it's just holding it. Here is it at silly angle. Yeah. Pretty good. I'll just show you that it is capable. 28 ml pipe. There you go. It will hold 28. Obviously it will hold 22 as well, which I do have here. There you go. And just do a bit of soldering. Brilliant. Obviously, in here keep your fittings, whatever. The best bit, that there. This is for your gas bottle. It's sitting in there. Work around. That's going nowhere. I have had something like this for quite some years now and it's a cleaning tray. And it's similar to this, but everything just flies around. This holds it in place. Brilliant design.

Morning Tool Talk. It's Chris from Minty Property Developments. Today we're reviewing the Monument Sweatbox. Now I've never had a tool box or anything. I've normally used a bag. But this seems like a decent bit of kit, somewhere to store your gas, flux solder, plenty of room, various... It's a kit, nice big pockets. Fairly solid as well. It can take a bit of a batch. Flux's brush holder there, which is quite handy because I'm normally losing them. It's got this little clamp height as well. So this little clamp, you get a bit of copper. Handy. These are heatproof. So we can stick our copper in there, clamps it down. If we're doing a small bit of soldering, it's not going to move anywhere. It is fairly solid. I'm quite impressed with that.
Got a little bit of 28 mm copper. Will it fit? Will it fit? 28 mm copper as well. So that's very handy. Overall, it's decent bit of kit. The only issue I've found with it is probably user error, is I'll fill it and it'll get so heavy. But that's my fault, carrying all stuff around site. But no, other than that, no fear that it's going to break or snap or anything like that. So solidly built, lots of storage in it. It's a decent buy.

Hi, this is DC Plumbing and Heating, doing a review on the Monument Masters Sweatbox, kindly sent to me by Tool Talk. First impressions, pretty good. Pretty robust. Non-slip, stickers on the bottom you get with it. There's a nifty pipe clip, a 15mm and 22mm. It clicks in there, so you can do your soldering out of position and stuff off the floor.
Yeah, I quite like it. Got plenty of stuff in there. Not sure it's worth £50, but yeah, pretty good. I like it. Thank-you very much, Tool Talk.
