Love mine. But I found the foam holder to be a PITA and took up needed space. So I bent little holders from coat hanger to keep them shut for storage.

That would be a great restoration project.:rocker:
I agree and may get around to it at some point. But all it really needs right now is a good cleaning and I can go right to using it. The bottom cab is 33.5" W x 18.5" D x 38" H. The top and middle chest are 16" deep and the side can is 20" W x 17" D x 28" H. Overall height is 5'-7.5". This setup has a lot of capacity. All the drawers work good and the handles are tight and in good shape. It was loaded down with tools to the brim when I looked at it, so I know how it handles loaded. I'm happy with it.

Felt this was a fair deal. SVTS262A Kit for $150 via Craigslist. And it's barely been touched. Still has manuals and everything in the box too.

Got these in today

All#2 4" screwdrivers to compare which one I like best to replace my cman pros which I have been breaking tips on and having issues getting the same ones back as they keep discontinuing them. I'll end up just taking them home to use around the house. Should be an easier life. My first impressions are that the Felo Ergonic is comfortable in the hand. The Wera Chiseldriver is nice but I like a big handle all the way through. Due to the way I treat my flatheads I think I am going to get the chiseldrivers for those and the Felo Ergonics for the phillips. The other Felos were about the same feel just not as soft.

Wiha Microfinish

Wera Chiseldriver

Felo Ergonic

Felo 550 series

And some more Knipex pliers

My other flashlight showed up the other day too. Nitecore EC1. Very small, 280 lumens, runs on CR123s. It's nice and small and bright, but the color temp is a little too blue for my likings. Could be because my streamlight is natural and the Zebralight I got is natural as well. It also came in a package deal with an Intellicharger which is able to charge both sizes of batteries independently which is nice.

From tooltopia I got these cool connectors for fuse boxes, no more jamming leads into fuseboxes! And a 22/22.5mm flip socket for those frustrating swelled Chrysler lug nuts. And a 16mm tamper proof xzn socket for German drain plugs.

From eBay I got a BMW timing tool for my new car project I've got going on and a lightly use mg325 3/8 impact to upgrade from my mg31.

Those timing tools are a life saver, For an M50-52 or an S50-52 i presume

Kijiji'd these snappy 3/8 hex bit sockets, metric and standard! A bit rusty but I think their gonna clean up good, bits are in good condition. 50$ for both sets!, good deal being as I just dished out 95$ total to make up a set of metric 4-10 from various sellers on eBay, needless to say ill have a metric set for sale

Bought some Socket Logic trays for my work toolbox, the Craftsman blow-molded case that I had in the drawer was driving me nuts. Some of the sizes I had did not fit in the case, and the layout didn't make any sense either.

So far, I have been extremely happy with these. Now I just need to fill them up the rest of the way, funny how that works.
