Looks good. I build 2 tandem freight liner plow trucks at the county shop I work for. The welding/fabricating is most enjoyable to me.

Here are the pics…

I can’t get the pics to load right now, sorry.

I’m building this hunting blind from two old IBC totes. I have cut in some windows and an opening for a door. I’m looking for creative ideas on how to frame out the windows and door. I’d prefer not to use any wood for this build and to not spend a lot of money on materials. So far, I’m...

Yeah that’s a good way to look at it. Just didn’t know if the 240 was a big improvement over the 230.

I recently picked up a brand new Hobart IronMan 230 MiG welder. I also purchased the spool gun attachment and the protective cover. All of the items were “clearance” priced, and I got a really good deal. I was just wondering if it’s worth trying to sell this welder and make a little money on...

Okay good to hear. I could buy five used KRL2055’s for what I can buy one new KRL60B for.

I really could use a small road chest for service calls at work. I don’t go on the road on a regular basis, but when I do, I’m cramming all of my stuff in the side cabinet of the service truck. I may throw my hand tools in a 5 gal. bucket, and it’s just a bad setup. My ideal box, would be a...

That’s a nice looking box. Are you saying that the KRA60 isn’t heavy duty enough? I’m afraid that the 62 May be to big.

Thanks for the offer, but I’m in Wisconsin.

I’m looking at buying a new Snap-On KRA60b road chest. Does anyone on hear have one? I can find all kinds of reviews and photos on the larger KRA62 road chest, but not much on the 60.

Well, that sounds like a poor expiriance with your schools boxes. I know when I spend thousands of dollars on something new, I will certainly give it a thorough inspection upon delivery. If there's any question about quality control issues, it will have to be rectified before purchase of that...

My KRL Snap-On seems like a well built unit and is only four years old. I'm considering a new Snap-On EPIQ series box. If you have opinions on those I'd like to hear them.

Recently I upgraded my ten year old Matco 4S triple bay with a four year old Snap-On KRL 1022 I bought off of Craigslist. It's a really nice box that is in immaculate condition. After transferring all of my tools, I don't know if it's really my dream setup. I'm considering finding a Snap-On...
