My New KRL722

[dragr8cer]

Hey guys,

I found this site when I first started researching tool boxes. A lot of good information here, and I have learned a lot just by lurking. I figured this would be a good first post. I picked this up off of craigslist. This is my first Snap On box. I was not planning on getting this much tool box, but I just couldn't resist the chrome drawers!

now you cant go wrong with that box. those look sweet when you walk in a shop. it really catches your eye...

guess what YOU ****...

 

[alex71]

I protest that "you ****" pending the OP posting the price!

Nice box, small for my liking, same size as my classic 78 just about, and i almost got that thing full to the hilt and i don't have a quarter the tools i need.

Are the drawers silky smooooth? Every time you pull open a drawer, you'll smile.

 

[mrshaun]

trust me he gets a you ****...

That chrome sure is pretty but it is a pain to keep clean. Here is my red KRL1022 chrome edition with a stainless steel top. You have a fairly rare box there. Keep it in good condition.

Well I guess in order to put myself into the "you ****" category I will post the price. After all it was other people posting what they paid for their stuff that helped me decide what I could expect to pay. I paid $1800 cash for it today! Be easy on me. I have been lurking here for a while so you guys helped me make the right decision!!

All the drawers are silky smooth. It does have the extra fold up shelf on the other side, and a few of the drop in shelves in the drawers.

I need to clean the box and the area around it before I try and take some good pics.

WOW!!! BIG YOU ****.

I forgot to mention that I won my KRL1022 in a contest that Snap-on had about 4 years ago.

I have the regular version of that box..... only difference i see is that you have a 4" deep drawer in the smaller bank, where i have 2 2" drawers. I'm thinking the single drawer would have worked better for me. Anyone know if this was an option on these boxes? I know Snap on said $200 for the single drawer, so i would rather do some trading if possible... just not sure where to look for the trade. When do we get to see pics of it full?

 

[cokeexpress]

nice box! i'm currently saving up for a krl722 myself.

 

[dragr8cer]

I'll start] transplanting my tools into it today, Will it be full? I'd doubt it, but I will sure try. This is such an upgrade from my non ball bearing 26 inch wide craftsman setup I bought long ago in high school. Now that I have my own place to work in, I got tired of having a lot of tools like my cordless drill just sitting out on my work bench. Thanks for the compliments (and the you ***** !)

 

[RbrtAWhyt]

Thats an awesome looking box.

 

[arkangel06]

$1800

you ****!!!!!

 

[caper150]

Well I just checked the price on a new one that doesn't have chrome door and yes

YOU ****

But Congrats

 

[dragr8cer]

Thanks guys. I got into running a water line to my new building so I didn't get to put any tools in yet. Maybe tomorrow.

 

[arkangel06]

We will need pics of it full of tools.....

I think its a forum rule or something...

I chose krl1022's instead of the desks. I sold one and kept the chrome one.

 

[dragr8cer]

Alright guys, I got some tools in it today. I'm still not sure if I am set on how everything is organized. I have never had to worry about loading a tool box this big. Any Suggestions?\

 

[Stick Figure]

It will constantly be evolving as you get more tools, so i wouldn't worry about it too much right now. I have been meaning to get a couple pics of mine, so i will try and get them tomorrow to show off my collection, i mean give you some ideas.

 

[Mustangmike]

you ****!!

 

[Rocket1]

Really nice box. I've never seen the chrome editions before. I like those a lot

Just my opinion but I think I would put all the wrenches in the same drawer.

 

[9GUY9]

you need to buy more tools, then you will need a bigger box, then you will buy more tools....

 

[Stick Figure]

finally got some pics of my 722 and figured i would just put the link up here .....

Yes i know my camera ***** ... doesn't seem to be able to set the proper automatic shutter time, and way to big of a PITA to set it manually for the shots.

did you get your package in the mail today?

 

[GeorgiaHybrid]

did you get your package in the mail today?

I knew that Snap-on credit was tough but wow....You guys cut a guys package off and keep it until he pays for the box and then you send it back thru the mail?????








Just kidding...

 

[Stick Figure]

did you get your package in the mail today?

Yep i ran over to the post office today and grabbed it. Badge was a newer style than he originally wanted, but he was happy w/ it, and i'm super happy w/ the sockets, and extras. thanks again

[mrshaun]

most guys wives have chopped the thing off long ago along with the other two parts that belong to the set.
