Let's see your toolbox.

[mikew13]

42" Craftsman top and bottom with 75 lbs per drawer rating
27" Proto with 100 lbs per drawer rating, bottom is 200 lbs.
I am proud to say no harbor freight junk except for the Taiwanese made balljoint press.
Most of this stuff is USA made Craftsman, some Wright, Some Snap ON, Some S&K

 

[jeffmoss26]

Very nice, Mike!

 

[dililis]

Here's mine
I've had it for 16 years and it's stuffed to the gills.

Finally got everything in my new box.

I only have 2 drawers empty but I'm sure they will fill fast.

First post here guys!! Been lurking here for quite some time. finally got up the nerve to show off my hodge podge tool box. I am 29 years old and have tried to keep a strict tool budget since I started turning wrenches after high school and during college. I bought the main roll around new. Made the red oak top with aluminum insert. Then added the hutch and door. Built the top box. And added the side cabinet and locker second hand.

This is what I have to show for 10 years. Not the prettiest thing, but I am proud of her! Sorry for the crappy cell phone pics. I take these every month or so to update for insurance purposes.

 

[jeffmoss26]

Wow!!

 

[blacK20]

Nice collection fowlwishes. Large variety of quality tools that look well used. That's what I like to see!

 

[bgott]

In your second from last picture, the one with the bottle jacks in front. Does your Snap-on foam pad still have the part number readable? I would like to buy some of these off of Snappy rather than Matco.

I will check when I get to the shop!

Wow!!

I get that alot for my age.

If I dont use it, I wont buy it. No shelf queens for me! I like shiny new tools as much as the next guy. But the beat up ones have more character.

 

[Harvey Melvin Richards]

How do these Snap On wrenches work? Are they a locking pipe wrench?

 

[Lowridermig]

^^^ Yup They are great It's like a pipe wrench and cobra grips in the same tool.
I have all 3 sizes. Money well spent.

 

[Lowridermig]

@Fowlwishes Great set up I really like it. Very well organized. What kind of work do you do? I see a heavy mix of tools from whats seems to me heavy truck/equipment to automotive.

 

[tank4114]

Mine isn't very clean or organized much anymore since I'm barely in at all at this point. I work out of my service truck. But here are a couple pics.
1997:

cool pick very nostalgia

and that's a nice setup foulwishes lots of high end tools in there all look like they seen there fair share of hard work

 

[1stblack97ZJ]

Finally broke away from using my dad's tools and started my own collection. Bought the craftsman 9 drawer at a garage sale for 100 bucks, and then grabbed the husky ball bearing for 50 bucks on ebay about a week ago, so that one isn't quite full yet.

Most of my tools are old craftsman, workmans choice, kmc, a little proto, a little snap on, some old taiwan stuff, crescent, vise grip, etc..

standard:

metric:

then the machinist tool box I was given by my grandfather:

 

[jeffmoss26]

Very nice setup, especially the machinist stuff. I cherish all the tools that my family members have given me over the years!

 

[threeputt]

I use this board to keep some of my tools. They are not all in the correct place but it works. I got this from a Carquest store that was changing over to something else. Tom

 

[JASTECH]

All you on this page have nice setups and tools that get used. I have started cleaning my box's so when finished then they will get loaded and a pic or two. Until then I am truely enjoying the setups from all you members.

Thanks

Mother of God!!!!

This is one of the most well equipped boxes (tool wise) I have seen on this forum! And I have been through every page of this thread twice! hahah

AWESOME

Heres an update on mine. Just got the Matco 6328RX in the new Copperhead color. Old box was 6231RX in black silver vein.

New:

I love that drawer configuration.

How much did that box list for off the truck? If you don't want to post it, please PM me.

Looks like the part number on my mat is MAT38

@Fowlwishes Great set up I really like it. Very well organized. What kind of work do you do? I see a heavy mix of tools from whats seems to me heavy truck/equipment to automotive.

For 8 years I was a ASE master certified light/medium duty automotive tech. But my boss man at the time had a deadly heart attack at an early age. So for the last 3 years I have worked as a John Deere tech.

 

[fowlwishes]

Thanks

I have all three sizes as well (just not in that box). They are PWZ1, PWZ2, and PWZ3 from smallest to largest. I THINK they had a PWZ0 as well, but I am not sure on that one.

You can go to Matco's website and use their toolbox builder to find out in the mean time.

That is a sharp looking box, by the way.

Found them in the catalogue, maybe next time I am on the truck, I will look out for them

[littletoes]

Fowlwishes---Nice set up! Can always tell a working man, how he sets up his box gives it away. Good organization, easy to get too, and "like" stuff all together.

Not much wasted money in that box, and its nice to see tools with a bit of honest wear on them!

 

[purplezr2]

PWZ0-48

Well guys after 8 weeks of waiting it finally arrived today..My new KRL1033. The bottom center drawer was somewhat damaged by the shipping company. And as always just my luck. My dealer dropped by and we got it all taken care of. So here it is.
