I am in the Ryobi line. I have the impacts, drill, air pump, saws and my garden tools. No complaints here.

I am wondering if it would be possible to convert the old friction slides on my 1990s Craftsman tool boxes to soft close types? Has anyone converted or modified a tool box like this?

Santa came through this year!

Scoutcrafter is a no miss for me. I look forward to his new content each week and learn something from him all the time. I also like Tom Gunn Tools, Project Farm and 357 Magdad.
