As the title says, I bit the bullet and ordered a 72" toolbox from HF.com today......I figured if/when I get my NYS taxes back, I can always buy the additional side boxes, but in the mean time, this is a start. Got to fondle it last night in the store, and the quality was certainly surprising.

I had it shipped to my work, so I 'll be sure to take a bunch of pics when it arrives. Anyone know if there's a hutch that fits this thing?

You did the same thing I did; I made my 8 year old daughter stand in the top drawer while I slid it back and forth. Got a funny look from an employee but he didn't object. I didn't stand in any drawers though, I'd probably tip it over...

No hutch yet, but I think some have been made. Spend some time here and you'll get plenty of ideas.

There's a member that has a video on YouTube about his. Little more than just a hutch but it's pretty cool.

That is something a guy could make and add to. I wouldn't have a problem with the HF sides either and all the drawer and shelf stuff so hard to fabricate.

Just went from 2 44s to a 72 and love it. May end up getting a 44 or 56 top to put on it if one pops up for sale on Craigslist.

Cool picture man! I just bought my 72 at the Harbor Freight in Fairview Heights IL last night. I'm very impressed with the heft of it. Looks good too. I was a little concerned about such a heavy box on only 4 wheels/casters, but it looks like they've got it built heavy enough underneath and throughout to be good. The bracing used is .110" , way heavier than anything else I looked at. All of the "comparable" boxes clearly NEEDED their center pair of wheels just to hold them up. If these other 6 wheel boxes get loaded up heavy and rolled around on uneven floors they will be trashed in short order. To boot HF's version of spring loaded wheels seem pretty decent, which for $1099. nobody else has. (That I saw)

So awesome! Your going to love that box, beats the prices of the tool trucks boxes for sure. I got mine about 6 months ago and it is great!

Just an update fellas....she finally showed up today at my shop. After inflated NYS taxes and a $96 shipping charge, it totalled just a C-hair over $1,400.

I'm quickly running out of room, and will definately have to buy at least one add-on box, if not 2.....

I'm jealous of all that drawer space. I'll be looking at one of those 72" cabinets soon

I am looking to get one in a couple years. I have the 44" top and bottom box.

Every now and then HF really comes out with a gem

Also that is an awesome pic
