Not sure what to do with an old beater box

[charle10]

An old beat up KR557B came in a package deal with my other box. I've got it listed on craigslist, with no interest at $200 obo. I'm thinking I've got 3 options clean it and fix a few slides and use it as a roll around, or sell it for less than I want to. Lastly I've thought of chopping it down (cutting out the bottom drawer or 2) and turning it into a top box for my Kr555. I'm not sure what I would be getting into if I try this though. Anyone here ever cut up a box to make it into something more useful?

advertise it at the tech schools for future graduates , sell it cheap

fix it up a bit and paint it.

use it as the base for a benchtop power tool

use it for nut and bolt storage

use it as a mobile workcart

remove the wheels and use as a cabinet by a workbench

I would love to have it if you were closer as I have that or a similar model and I could bolt them together and make a larger toolcart/box out of them

Where are you in NJ?

DaMan, A wild guess but I'd say about 800 miles west of NJ. I'm in S.E. Michigan.

After I posted this I was thinking I could slap a 1/4 plate on top and have a Snap-on welding table.

I'd probably give you $125 for it if you can wait until I get up to Michigan again.

I was hoping to get at least $150, when is the next time you'll be up in Michigan Lookin4? If its more than a week or 2, It'll probably be off the market.

Not sure, but probably awhile.
