    Tube Notcher and Tube Bender

    i have some 1 1/2" OD 3/16th thick DOM tubing i'm needing to notch. i have a notcher set up in my drill press and the regular old bi metal hole saws are taking a dump before it even really starts to get into it. any other kind of hole saws out there that would work better for this application?

    advice on large box

    I have a matco box like 2 bay you are talking about except mine is the 17 drawer 3 bay 4735 and I love it. It's a great box, you won't be dissappointed with a Matco rollaway.

    Tool Boxes, Plain Or Stickered

    apparently those stickers on that matco box add value as well since you can buy a brand new pro-formance box like that for a few hundred less. but to answer the question, i have a few stickers on mine, but it certainly isn't cluttered like that one is.

    Tool Inventory

    Suppose I wanted to inventory everything I have in my boxes to figure out about how much I've got invested in my tools and equipment, would you go ahead and figure out the worth by using the manufacturers list price, or what you actually paid for the tools?

    I like Cornwell Tool trucks

    I have two matco rollcabs at work and i decided that i don't need them both there so i decided to take one to my garage at my house. my cornwell man was nice enough to stop by the shop after his route and pick up my box and bring it to my house for free rather than me having to pay someone to...
