I found a nice small Kennedy tool box in a trash dumpster.

There it is, finally. Don't know if I figured it out or just punched enough buttons enough times to luck out. Will try to do it again and post the pick of the outside of the box.

I buy so much stuff even I forget about it.

I forgot I posted this earlier. It's my only excuse. Getting old *****.

I have most of my tools and other stuff in a storage unit in the neighborhood. I've been there many years. Have set a small part of the storage unit up as my shop so I can rebuild a few motorcycle transmissions or such. Every few months the storage company has auctions of units people have not paid rent on. So the buyers take the stuff they want and throw other stuff away. The tool box was thrown away by one of these buyers.

I too thought it unusual to find this nice a tool box in the trash. We find stuff on the roads and highways, we buy junk at flea markets. But how much stuff nicer than this box comes out of a trash dumpster?

I have the same box, it was the same price as yours. However mine looks not quite as nice lol. it still works. Plus I like Ohio brands, even tho in this area were basically saturated w/ Kennedy rollers, and not so much with hand carry boxes.

Ok so mine was a CS-19. It's older cuz square corners, but look how beat up the tray is like it was on purpose lol....
