    Let's see your toolbox.

    Snap on krsc43 and a International 56" Bottom box. I mainly work out of the snap on all day and keep all the special tools and seldom used stuff in the international.

    Looking for a good radiator hose puller/pick set

    http://www.tooltopia.com/lisle-80380.aspx I picked these up and they are working great. I'm a marine mechanic so always have to get hoses off of Inboard and I/O engines and these have been holding up awesome. And for the price I can't complain a bit.

    Needing new screwdrivers. Help with selection.

    I bought the Proto Duratek a few weeks ago. Havn't had a ton of use yet but so far they are great. They seem to grip some really old stubborn vintage outboard fasteners really well. And they also come in a pretty wide variety of different styles. They are pretty much the same as the Mac macgrip...

    Tool truck brands in the future.

    I wish there was a sk truck around me. I was kinda curious to see what the new gearwrench trucks would be like. It really wouldnt surprise me if HF started a truck. They have quite the following even in some professional shops.

    Tool truck brands in the future.

    As more and more tools are being made overseas what will the back of the tool trucks look like in 5 or 10 years? I'm basically asking as I am trying to decide on what tool truck to buy from. It's buying into a long term investment and I'm curious if they will all be tawain or chinese tools in...

    snap on flank drive plus vs mac precision torque

    I have been really debating on these precision torque wrenches lately. Was hoping more people had some expierence with them. I may just have to buy me a set. I know their not USA but they are a hell of alot cheaper than the fd+

    Modifications to the HF 4 and 5 drawer service carts - what changes have you made?

    The yellow part is a lower unit stand for when I'm servicing smaller outboard lower units. It's removable and I have other ones that I use for larger lower units. I also made one to that allows me to set small outboards on it. I thought about making a attachment for it that'll make a tall work...

    56" toolbox shootout - HF vs Menards?

    I havn't actually measured it but the drawers definitely feel and look alot heavier. No flexing or sagging and very minimal slop on the international. The international drawer detents are alot firmer than the harbor freight but no matter what the drawers are I would always just lock it before...

    56" toolbox shootout - HF vs Menards?

    I took the leap and just purchased it. I have the 44" harbor freight box still too and I think about 8 drawer slides need replaced in it so far. Open the drawers and they just fall out. The international box has detent drawer slides but if your putting it in your trailer it's as simple as just...

    56" toolbox shootout - HF vs Menards?

    I just bought the International 56" 10 drawer and I love it. full 24" deep drawers and 6 casters. It is a pretty heavy duty box. I got it on sale at sears online for 799 shipped to my door. I've had many other brands before including the harbor freight ones and this thing is way heavier duty.
