    Show me your HF toolbox!

    Had it close to a year, plan on adding the side boxes for more storage when money permits. A few pics of the drawers, I know the foam shadowing takes up room but I love neat drawers. Besides, Ill just add on to store more tools! I have more drawers filled just as neat but only loaded these up.

    Let's see your toolbox.

    Harbor freight box, mostly Craftsman tools minus the dewalt stuff and a few sheet metal tools. Not bad for a home box, I get a lot done with it. Have a lot more drawers full but could only upload a certain number of pics.
