Looks neat! 48 drawers...

If they were $50, I'd be hard pressed not to buy one...

Be careful. Short drawers made of plastic, will not support much weight, but great for small items (nuts, bolt, washers, etc).

Oh, I fully agree. If they were cheap and I had room,
I'm pretty sure I could find not too heavy junk to
fill it up with...

I call the one with the little white pills in the drawers.

 

[bchee]

yeah, looks good for fastener storage, but not for $300

 

[alkemyst]

on a side note, first aid cabinets are great storage....esp for small paints and bottles.

Steer clear of the Suppository Drawer.

I had to take my daughter in a couple weeks ago to get her wisdom teeth pulled . They had me go back to the recovery room while the DRRUGS wore off and there between the beds was a Kobalt Ball Bearing Bottom Box being used to hold medical stuff .

Are those drawers plastic? They look like painted steel from where I'm standing.

I've got two tool cabinets that started off in hospitals. A Waterloo 3 drawer box with storage compartment in the bottom, and a small, stand alone toolbox that looks like a sidebox. It's not that heavy duty so I don't use it for real heavy stuff. Both are all metal.

Back in the late 60's/early 70's I worked at Duke U. Med. Ctr. We used Craftsman rolling cabinets for crash carts.

I was gonna mention this too.


My Father-in-law's ex wife was head of nursing at a local hospital, and they used Cman tool carts for their crash carts as well......probably still do.

If the drawers were metal, and it wasn't so dang far away I would go look at it and try to knock them down a buck and a half.
Plastic drawers I wouldn't go 100.

I was researching casters for some carts I was going to make and some of the really high-end 2" casters made for medical/hospital use are pretty impressive. Expensive, but really nice.
