OR THIS ONE FOR $1000

SnapOn Box

A bit high. I sold 3 of these last year. I would offer $700 if you like it. Do not pay more than $800....they can be had for that amount or less on eBay. This style box is pretty common.

FWIW, I love the Kennedy #520s and have six of them for organizing all my small tools. I use one each for drills, taps and dies, woodworking bits and hole saws, reamers, mills, punches and chisels. The numerous small drawers are great to keep all the little stuff where it is visible.

i got a craftsman kennedy box just like that for $20 and it was like new. but i would still buy that one for $25

The box is in pretty nice shape. The felts in the drawers are all intact and pretty clean. The slides on the drawers are smooth as new.

Since I'm not a collector of vintage so to speak, I'll chemically clean up/neutralize any rust and get a nice hammered finish paint and make it look like new.

It is missing the lock an has 4 small holes drilled in the top and front where a hasp and lock must have been after the lock was removed. I'll fill the holes with some pop rivets and paint over them. A lock should be easily had from Rockler or Woodcraft or even Sears for that matter.

I'll keep all my smaller and precision tools in it. Beats having them in the Mayline drafting/art drawer cabinet they are in now.

the locks are also available directly from Kennedy.
