Go for it! I stole the idea from Pinterest... Does that mean points against my man card? :bounce: You can find everything you need at Home Depot, I cut the shelf from scrap wood, stained with Ebony stain, used 3/4" pipe for the supports.

This looks awesome! My one suggestion would be, even if you don't think you will ever use it, run some cat5, coax, and speaker cable to some strategic locations. Probably less than $100 in cable all in and then your garage doubles as a man cave should you ever want to hook up...

Klipsch.

Decor & tunes... :rocker:

Very nice!

So, it's been a while since I posted this... Since then I have done quite a bit of work including finishing the original Snap-On box, purchasing another, and painting the garage. =) Here are some photos of the finished work.

I've got various Sonos speakers throughout the house with the Sonos Play 1 in the garage. The single speaker is plenty loud for a three car garage and in the driveway. http://www.sonos.com/en-us/shop/play1.html

oh man, that is no good.... I was planning on painting mine with a spray gun and PPG paint (Overkill but I wanted to see what I could do with it). However, after I spoke with an old friend that taught me how to paint and used to do body work, I have decided to get it powder coated. He...

I grabbed these for a steal from Craigslist, my story is similar to yours... I was looking at Harbor Freight and decided I just wouldn't be happy with it in the long run (even though I do believe a HF box would be fine for my needs). I didn't really want to spend the money for a larger box...

Thanks! I will go pick up some after work today. Looks promising, I don't think my slides are as in as bad of shape as some of yours were. :thumbup:

I am working on a similar project, what parts cleaner are you using?

Thanks FJ! As a side note, it looks like you are a Toyota (and Jeep) fan. I just bought my first Toyota ever, a 4Runner TRD Pro in Cement and I absolutely love it! I will definitely post pics of the box along the way, if I go white I'm thinking black accents to give it that Storm Trooper look.

so, I have ran into my first issue... I got all of the friction slides out without much of a problem. However, the bottom slide seems to be ball bearing? Is this common, to have two different slide types? I can't seem to figure out how to get the BB slide to release... any suggestions?

I agree with everything you said here, maybe "worth" was the wrong way to ask that question. If I change the color I am currently leaning towards the Snap-On white or lime green boxes I have seen. I had a buddy that had a large roller cabinet in white and it looked like a work of art! As far...

Hello everyone, new GJ member, I am already loving this site! So, over the past few months I have been obsessing over garage organization and decided I needed more tool storage. I was about to pull the trigger on a Harbor Freight box to go along side my Craftsman, which is creeping up on 20...
