So...... YOU ****!

I didn't take a picture but the front cabinet handles actually came out like new money with some vinegar and a wire brush, I suppose cause they were originally chrome.

I don't have a sandblaster but this worked though. Apple cider vinegar and a little light wire brushing and they look pretty damn good. thanks!

Your Imgur links aren't working, here they are though. try to attach to the forum via "manage attachments" EDIT: after visiting the links manually i see them in your post. Imgur is funky, attach directly to forum if you can.

Greased the slide and put the drawers back in the old snapon top box I got from my grandfather. Just need to figure out how to clean up the handles, if you have ideas please advise here CLICK.

So I got the top snap-on box refinished, looks pretty good IMO. I need to clean up the handles though, the side handles and the front lid handles are rusted and pitted, how would you guys advise I attack this? Thank in advance!

That is the stack I saw pretty sure, the sticker IIRC said "Assembled in the USA from globally source parts".

I am bad with receipts but do have an excel file with tabs for the vehicles. Every service, place, part, price, date, etc is logged in there.

I know guys, we all know and have known. My point wasn't to let everyone know that they are selling Craftsman boxes at Lowes, it was more to ask what everyone thought of the price and value of said boxes. As much as we talk about toolboxes here, it seemed after diligently searching the forum...

Not positive but Lowes states.... From what I can find online (links point here to various threads lol) the HF is also 18 or there abouts.

Was at Lowes for the first time in a long while, I am more an HD guy. I walk in and right in the front they have these 52" top and bottom craftsman boxes, red, easy close drawers, etc. The set was priced at like $798 if I am not mistaken. That seems like a really great deal, or am I wrong? I...

Yeah logout, then login and click the "remember me" button before you do. If it happens still it may be an issue with your browser, clear your cookies. As someone else said, just in case, after you type your posts copy it. You can do that easy by hitting ctrl+a then ctrl+c on your keyboard...

Unloaded the little grill, canopy, chairs, fishing poles, and other stuff back into the garage from our vacation last week. Emptied the cooler and stocked the fridge with some good beer, not much else.

pull the drawers out a few inches so you can get the tools in but the extensions are still inside the cabinet. hold the tools in place there, close to the cabinet face as you pull the drawer out, the rails will start to slide out, at that point just pull the drawer straight out. maybe that...

Yeah, I think Jack Olson's (Olsen?) 12 Gauge garage uses this method.

The one advantage to big pictures is they are easier to interact with on my phone, I do not use tapatalk so I don't need to click to enlarge, then find the tiny X, etc.

I can go either way really, there are mods for this platform to prevent people from quoting pictures but I think the team here is planning to move to a new platform soon so that isn't really a need.

Go advanced Attach large image using the "manage attachments" form, close form Right-click and "copy link address" on the uploaded attachment like this Click the "insert image" button here paste that link in there should look like this in your post body text Click OK Submit reply...

We work to the 1/8" mainly in engineering, 1/16" sometimes on plant sites. We use tape measures, levels, pogo sticks, ladders, etc. When working in the field I did as-built's for piping systems so it was pretty straight forward. Get some good large prints of how it is SUPPOSED to be built and...

I usually break them cause I am a big dummy and will put a 1/2 x 3/8 on a breaker bar with a big stupid socket to break something loose knowing it's gonna break the adapter but I like the pain.
