    pneumatic casters on toolbox?

    cool, thank yall. I've seen the pit boxes before, My idea is similar, but I also was thinking of have the tires mounted wider then the box, not just longer so that way it's not as tippy. Maybe some of the no flat tires on casters?

And they are a high quality box compared to others in the same price range. Much better than the current craftsman and husky boxes. I've read they are even...
