    Homak RS-Pro 72" Tool Box

    Took a trip to a nearby NAPA last week to check out the RS Pro in person. They had a 72" and 41" stack in stock. I was informed that the 41" has had some sort of minor change and the previous version, which was what my NAPA had in stock, was now reduced to $944.44 from $1099. He checked the...

    Calculating Tool Box Capacity

    I think there's a lot of truth in that statement. It's not possible to haul tools in and try out a box before buying so I'm just looking for a decent way to compare old to new. It does seem that square inches is a more reasonable standard to use vs cubic inches simply to avoid having to stack...

    Calculating Tool Box Capacity

    Measured my current setup and I have 4,345 square inches of drawer space over 16 drawers if you count the open space under the lid of the top box as a drawer. I would sure think the HF 44 cabinet would have way more than that. Hopefully I'll be able to get those dimensions in the next couple...

    Calculating Tool Box Capacity

    Interesting, it wouldn’t be too tough to figure out the square inches of drawer space I currently have. I know the HF drawers are about 19 1/2 inches deep but I’ll have to see if I can find the width online. Most of my stuff is mechanic’s tools so I don’t have a huge need for deep drawers. The...

    Calculating Tool Box Capacity

    Looking to change out my 30 year old Craftsman stack with a new HF 44 bottom chest this Friday. Mrs. Misfire claims there's no way all the tools in my current boxes will fit in a single HF 44. I no longer have any of the information that came with my old Craftsman boxes stating the capacity and...

    Plier Recommendations?

    So are all USA made Tekton pliers made by Wilde? There’s a couple pair of USA made Tekton 8 inch linesman pliers hanging on the rack at Meijer for only $10 and I’m going to grab one if they’re decent quality. I like the smaller size and the 8 inch are no longer listed on the website. Looks like...

    Us General Toolboxes now in color!

    Website now says your choice of color, red, black or blue on the 44” cabinet. Glad I waited, I’ll be grabbing a blue one when I get the chance. Haven’t seen the 44” in blue yet if someone could post a picture that would be great. https://www.harborfreight.com/

    Harbor Freight Coupon Thread

    I’ve looked at that box at a couple different locations and none have had the Series 2 emblem just the new US General badge. I think the Series 2 emblem only exists in their advertising materials which is fine with me. I do like the new US General badge. In both boxes I looked at there was a...

    Harbor Freight Motorcycle Lift

    I was not familiar with that lift. Looks pretty nice and still not crazy money.

    Harbor Freight Motorcycle Lift

    Also don't have room to store a lift but have been on plenty of forums with guys that have the HF lift and have a good friend that is a Ducati/BMW guy who has one and I've never heard of a problem. The front wheel vise needs to be replaced as soon as it comes out of the box but otherwise it's...

    Good gutter protection?

    Huge maple overhanging the front and massive ash tree overhanging the back. Installed Leaf Solutions guards when we moved in three years ago and haven’t touched the gutters since. Not cheap but worth it. http://www.leafsolution.com
