I've had my GP magnetic sockets for over 10 years with dailyuse, never broke one or lost the magnet. Occasionally have to blow out the socket to get rid of metal bits but that's it as far as upkeep.

I have never actually seen one of these in the wild, guess there's a reason they discontinued them after a few years.

Looks like a waterloo. Could be badged as something else but they made a lot of boxes for a lot of companies back then.

Here's the screwdriver page from the 1995 catalog. There's been several new colors added since then.

1998-2001 Krl773, wasn't made very long. That appears to be in great shape.

Ive already got the gearwrench frex wrench set, but the reversible icon set is my go to wrench set, I've had them for a year plus and no complaints from daily abuse. As far as icon wrenches go I wouldn't flinch at buying more or worrying about the warranty.

Only 21" deep, what a missed opportunity. I feel 24" is the minimum for a "pro line" toolbox.

I bought this mac tool set that goes up to 24mm and didn't think the price was too bad for usa made https://www.mactools.com/products/sxipm176tr

I have a set of 3/8 swivel socket from them that go up to like 24mm that are deep and I love them. They have a lot of random stuff that I like but I've also bought a ton of non cornwell from him.

Looks like it's inhreat shape for being over 30 hears old. Price really depends on location, time of year and just how bad someone wants it. I'd say around me that bring $1500-3000.

Bump still looking.

Gotta say I bought a set of the metric 15° offset ratcheting wrench set on a discount and they have been my go to wrenches since. No chrome peeling, switch works fine, they just feel very comfortable. Their 3/8 impact extension set has held up fine, even gets along with my cornwell and snap on...

That's an odd one never seen a cornwell box in that color. Looks to be an 80s to mid 90s MBC box. Don't have that box in any of my cornwell catalogs but could be in one I don't have, But definitely looks like the mac/matco boxes that were being made around the same time.

Looking for older snap on side box for my main box, krl1011, krl711,krl291, kr290 must be ball bearing, condition is not an issue. Looking for it either in ohio, Indiana, Kentucky or Michigan will drive for the right box. I've attached pictures of the style box I'm looking for. Thanks

It's literally the same latch system SO has used on their boxes for the 25 years. Lock and roll is what they call it.
