    Here's my box I put together to keep at school in the metal fab shop. I'm a graduate student in art and I was tired of bringing stuff from home or looking around for tools there either broken or missing.

    Weedwackers!

    I have an echo that I got from home depot about 3 years ago. Takes care of my 12 acres of fence and yards. Works great and haven't had any problems. What ever you get make sure you put it away for the winter properly or you're just asking for trouble.

    Sink in Your Garage?

    I put a slop sink I got from a building salvage place in my old garage. It was easy to plumb in because it back of the sink shared a wall with with the water heater closet. The drain just dumped into the floor drain in the closet. Kind of regret leaving it there because it was a nice stainless...

    I have a master mech 1/4 ratchet that I got a few months to put in a tool roll in one of the motorcycles. It isn't bad, not great but not bad.

    I don't have a picture of my bar in the garage by it's self, just shots of it in the background but you get the idea.

    Who Makes Drill Socket Adapters in the US?

    I have Dewalt ones and have never had a problem. I mostly use the 1/4 with my cordless impact, nothing really bigger.

    Let's see your toolbox.

    Decided to get a HF 44" for all of my jewelry studio hand tools. I'm moving to start graduate school at Texas Tech and was a little apprehensive about leaving all my tools out or in a bench that doesn't lock. You think Snap-on stuff is expensive... (I won't go into it) But so far started putting...
