This is what I use at home. It has become my welding cart. I just longer hose off the regulator to the welder. A work in progress as always as I only have a one car shop at home...

You have 4 swivel casters on your cart.. Mine only has 2 swivel casters. Do you have a link or part number for the other 2 swivel casters?

What kind of cart is that? Been looking for something with a slide top versus one that lifts up.

It is this one

It's ok. I don't think I would go out of my way to buy one. I bought this because i could piggy back it with free shipping with my sunex full drawer cart from them.

Mach158: I have the Mac MB199UC with the sliding tops that lift up ( not to the sides like the new ones) and absolutely LOVE it. I post a pic a page or two back

I have this one from Sunex. It's not bad but it rolls pretty rough if not on a flat surface but keeps my other one from getting beat up.

The Mac mentioned above me is really nice. I don't see a Mac guy or I would've bought over my Snap On. The Sunex one was actually cheaper on the National Tool truck then Amazon. I paid $200 new.

That's my setup for installing backup cameras. On a good summer day doing retail I might do 5 installs and drive 50 miles.

I got this cart a couple weeks ago, minus the side tray.

I strongly suspected it was made by Homak, and sure enough, the warranty registration got sent to homak.com.

Aircraft Catering Trolley as Tool Carts or Service Carts ...

I can get two Aircraft Catering Trolley. Anyone here who use Aircraft Catering Trolley in the garage for storage of tools, measuring instruments, etc. ?

I googled and found that they can be used for much :)

So far I like it very well. My previous cart is this one, and it is alright, just not enough room. It is now a teardown parts and fastener cart.

My turn!

Here is my daily driver, a Blue-Point 2 tier service trolley and KRSC33 cart. I can do 95% of the work out of these two and I have parked my KRA2422 roller at the end of the shop which gets a visit once or twice a week.

I like how orderly everything is, do you lock the top down at night? And does everything stay where it is on the lid?

Thanks!

I dont remember the last time the cart was moved or the lid was down lol. Small three tech indy shop, the only things that gets locked at night are the bay doors, office doors and the gate.

Nice setup man! I don't know about you but I'm all about efficiency! I like everything of one category to be together, sockets and ratchets are together and ALL my wrenches are together! This is how I did it! Those big socket holders I actually got at Lowes for $25 a piece! Pretty good if you ask me! I have other drawer pics of your interested!

I have a few of the socket racks that have the sizes printed on them but they take up a lot of space in my service cart. I have been thinking about changing to the smaller plastic ones like Nick is using.

Will I miss the printed sizes on the rack?

I've thought about those trays at lowes. I like being able to see the sizes. I might grab one for specialty stuff & see how I like it. I've done a few things to de clutter. Did the wire hanger wrench holders & got all my combinations in the lower thin drawer. Xl ratcheting in the top. Put some less used screwdrivers & pliers in my big box so I could put the rest of the small pliers & some extensions in the screwdriver holes. Also mounted the magnet rail inside the lid with all the **** that was laying in the front of the top compartment. Feel like I have a ton more space.

I really like this setup you have with the Snap-On cart. It has given me some organization ideas; I especially like the magnets in the lid. Did you just glue those on the inside of the lid, or did you use screws? Also, how big is this box? I have the Mac box with the top that slides and opens upward; I really like it but it is really too big for the narrow halls and cramped spaces in the hospital. I find myself using it as a home base and then loading an electrical cart with what I need for individual jobs.

3M heavy duty picture frame hangers that works like Velcro, I'm not drilling holes into my $1000 cart :shock:

Its 43" tall, 20" deep and 32" wide, not exactly a small cart.

I wish I had a garage to put a tool cart in. All of my at home work takes place in the driveway, and my tools stay in my spare room. Every repair job that needs more than a few tools includes a trip up and down a short flight of stairs. Still worth it! ad4044cda5b76e93790872f485660217.jpg

Nice cart! :thumbup:

I've got a similar Matco cart and always struggle with what to put on the bottom tray and usually is just a store all area. i like the idea of finding another small top to put in there for proper storage.
i like seeing a lot of the set ups you guys have.
