Jdtech, what brand is your work toolbox?

That's a Lista Technician Series Box. Certainly better value and more overall cubic inches of space compared to the Truck-Brands... Not to mention 440 lbs per drawer.

Never had a bad experience with a Lista, and this box gets worked hard all year.

I guess I don't have a life...just spent way too long looking at about a hundred pages on this thread. I am pretty sure I did not see one claw hammer in these tool boxes. My guess is if someone on this thread needed to pull a nail out of a board they would use some overly priced and ugly colored vise grips to latch onto it and then hit the vise grips with a ball peen hammer. LOL
ya one guy on page 6 had a claw hammer in his box

Oops, had a little short circuit in my brain there.

Per Lista website:

"All Single Bank drawers are full extension with a 440 lb. capacity"

I don't think 'mad' is the correct word in this case. More like temerity.

However; I suppose I would need a double walled SO if I were changing jobs every few years. Say, 10 or more times in the last 27 years.

You know, to handle all those moves between all the different shops.

I figured I'd add mine to the list. These are at the house. I thought I had some pics of what I've got at work, but I can't seem to find them. But I've got a half-height Vidmar, a full Vidmar 10-drawer, a full Vidmar 8-drawer with top cabinet, and a Mac 3-drawer/slide-top cart.

Well I found some of the at work stuff. I guess I was a little off on the drawer count.

only have an outside pic for now. gotta put some stuff put away and reorganize a few drawers before I'd show the contents. Been needing/wanting to do that anyway for insurance purposes.

You know, if you put double slides on a KRL, the drawer weight rating goes to 450 lbs. I'm a proud SO owner, but I am not knocking Lista, I would rather see guys excited about USA made Lista, then import boxes. ( Lista is made in USA right?)
