found metal cabinets

[Richard Cranium]

I was filling my propane tanks and saw these 3 metal cabinets off to the side of the propane shop, I asked about them and they sold me all three of them for **.**, I got a 4 foot unit, a 3 foot unit and a 2 foot unit. I couldn't get then loaded fast enough. took them home and tore out my old work bench and set these into place, I just sat the old bench top onto the new cabinets just to see what they will look like.

no stamps or names, but all the drawers have ball bearing on the guides.

What a find. I swear the best deals are found by accident. $50. Amazing.

It has been a good year for the garage, I got the steel rackiing at sears tire center for **.00, they had used tires on them, only 18inch deep, then fell into a deal on the ace harware parts cabinets, got them at a ace that was moving they were selling them for x.00 each and they were at least 80 0/0 full, and if you bought enough to fill the metal rack they gave you the rack also, I also get a misc bolt bin for **.00 with 1/4 thru 1/2 bolt, nuts and washers in, spent over ***.00 at ace for good stuff

 

[bobemmerich]

[cowboy73]

Awesome score on the cabinets!!!

 

[fergus]

Nice scores. You sir, you ****.

 

[Bob275]

Now the ACE deal.... I'm jealous of. I always wanted those at my house...

 

[Brad54]

Damn, those cabinets are awesome!

Ball bearing slides too! Damn. That's one hell of a score.

That many drawers, and you could just about get rid of any tool box you might have, freeing up even more room in the shop.

[whelenfan]

Drove by a motel today that was remodeling. Out at the curb were all those typical dressers motels have. Coulda been an instant 30' work surface with drawers. I have no room.

Nice score on the metal cabinets.

Do you have pictures of the rollers? Are there any welded numbers on the top of the frame? They look very similar to some I recently picked up.

Great find!

I hadn't quite made up my mind on your suckability, until......

It has been a good year for the garage, I got the steel rackiing at sears tire center for 10.00, they had used tires on them, only 18inch deep, then fell into a deal on the ace harware parts cabinets, got them at a ace that was moving they were selling them for 5.00 each and they were at least 80 0/0 full, and if you bought enough to fill the metal rack they gave you the rack also, I also get a misc bolt bin for 50.00 with 1/4 thru 1/2 bolt, nuts and washers in, spent over 300.00 at ace for good stuff

All doubt was removed... You Sir, **** BIG

I would love to find the brand of these cabinets. They seem to be built really well.

Nice find at the blood drive too.
