121GW - Is it worth it with all the problems posted on this forum?

My issue was more with the selector rotation and stiffness but after closer inspection I can see that the stand does not have a sufficiently firm end stop, past that point the holster just begins to pull away from the meter which only adds to the problem.

For Bench use would some sort of bucket or slightly tilted wall mount option be a good idea? I made some modded bucket a while back for my Micsig scope to change the angle and space it took up on the bench. I was going to screw the mounts down but it was fine just sitting on the bench.

Biggest problem with this is the range of meters.

A member has already done a nice stand for the 121GW.

Looks good and nice use of the probe holders on the bumper to hold it. I hadn't seen it before. I just opened up the Fusion file and tweaking the angle was only one angle to get it to 60 degrees from the 40 he had it set to.

Our daily DMM tasks, priorities, desires, budgets, etc. can change.  So even though I liked and used the BM235 for a while after I got it, when I moved into a place where I could set up a decent workbench I suddenly had no real use for it.

I picked up a calibrated 34401A and it handles most of the bench meter tasks these days.

However, today I was working on a 66332A and I ended up using 4 different DMMs.  They all had something useful to contribute to the project.
