Some if the reasons, tools are not returned to shadow boards are: 1. Not with in arms reach. 2. Somone else borrowers them. 3. No need for tools after improvements. Taking 5S to the next level is to have no tools during to do a change over. Thank you for sharing! I have seen plenty of shadow boards in my line of work.
