Grey Pneumatic is my choice. Cheap, good quality and complete sets. not made in USA tho.

I knew it was gonna be rough, but it works.

Nope. Its an old non-roller bearing slide box. It was hanging off the side of my first tool box I bought off an old guy that was retiring when I got into the trade. Its been bumming around the shop since I took that box home years ago. I'm moving on to another shop and didnt want to leave it but...

I have a set of polished angle wrenches from Northern, besides them being a little short they are great. I use them everyday without a hitch

Color came out pretty close. textures a bit rough but by the end of the day it had settled a bit more. For the $20 it cost me it looks %1000 better

I have the paint code on the back of my box supra. thanks though, I ended up at sherwin williams and having them color match my drawer insert. Got a quart of their oil base enamel and used a short nap roller to apply it. I had decent results in the past doing truck frames and industrial bodies...

I know snap-on sells the cans for touch up but that route is a bit expensive. I'm gonna try my luck at the store I'm not gonna be terribly picky just wanted to see if anyone had any luck before. Will post my results.

Anyone ever paint something to match Snap-on PPg ditzler royal blue with an off the shelf spray can. haven't headed to the store yet to look but I thought I'd ask here first. I know I could go get it color matched but I'm not looking to go thru that much trouble to try and fix up an old side...

Depends on the shop. I have a big Snap-on box. but my tools vary I have Harbor frieght, Northern tool, Craftsman, Snap on, Matco, armstrong, ect for me it comes down to whatever works. My Road service tools aside from my cordless Snap on Impacts are all cheaper tier tools incase I leave them...

Well I guess it was only "out of stock" for a few days. thanks a lot guys gonna grab the one with the extensions I think.

Sorry for your loss. Diesel guy here, will be glad to identify tools for ya.

Alright guys, lurking here for awhile. I'm in the market for a large Chrome socket set for my work chest so I can retire some Misc. sets. I found the craftsman 35299 set and it's exactly what I'm looking for, but to my dismay its "out of stock" anyone have any insight if its discontinued or...

Nice haul!
