Something cheap and plastic sounds like the way to go. That rubbermaid above looks like a handy setup. If you've got scrap laying around you could also build something. A couple lengths of 2x4s, some plywood, screws, and 4 casters and you're all set. Just a thought.

That's a great color. Everytime my SO guy has a cranberry box on the truck I have to bite my tongue. Red, I'm happy with red.

That wasn't his question. He was asking about people's preferences and why. I gave my answer.

Ahh, it's an old firefighter's tool.

I've got a couple old chrome 1/2 drive Blackhawk Lock-On sockets. I've never seen impact sockets with the same mechanism. The Snap-on Industrial catalog might have what you're looking for.

My first "professional" grade box was 56" wide roll cab. When I ran out of space I thought about trading up to something even wider and maybe a little deeper, but the way my workplace is laid out it just wouldn't have been practical. So I ended up getting the matching top chest. It nearly...

Probably a toss up between 5 different 1/4 and 3/8 comfort grip ratchets. Close second would be my 1/2 digital torque wrench -every lugnut I encounter gets torqued by hand.

The Mityvac 6830 has always worked well for me. It makes a great fluid catch when compressing calipers and makes quick work of pulling fresh fluid through a system. Follow it up with a gravity bleed and I'm all set. 95% of the time it keeps the job a 1 person affair.

Thanks. Roseburg area.

After years of stumbling across this site on my internet travels I figure it's time I join. I've always been impressed with the quality of information and level of discussion on this board. I'm an ASE certified tech at an independent auto shop here in Oregon and I've been in the busness for...
