Let's see your toolbox.

[Matt018]

An item i got for free, They were my gramps, i have the space for them in the tool box so i threw em in, Rarely have a need for them and will probably take them out when i need the space.

Do they have any value?

 

[jeffmoss26]

We need some pics of the SO box on the right

 

[NMIwrench]

got this one on monday(box on right). got one hell of a deal on it, used, off the mac truck. In like new condition. lightly used bernstein family tradition mac tool box with side locker and brand new side shelf.

Bought a small craftsman roll around today. It's an addition to other small boxes I have. I may take the casters off and stick it under my workbench. This is the roller bearing, self closing drawers. Was ~$150 picked up, and pretty decent for that price. I'll probably change the drawers a bit and post later.

I figured I should post my new box now that I had a chance to transfer from the cart I was using as my main box. I picked it up off CL, cleaned all the overspray off it, bought a sheet of decent wood and layered on some poly, and have started painting the drawer trim as you can see in the pictures. Going from a HF 4 drawer cart to this really was a big difference

Update to my tool set up. Updated photos for inventory/insurance purposes.

Not quite as big as some of yours but it does the job.

 

[jeffmoss26]

Very nice setup. I dig the cranberry color, something different!

What I use

Ok, now most times a cell phone pic is good enough for me, but this box is just too pretty to be satisfied with the pic you supplied!

MORE PIC'S PLEASE!
Love that color scheme.

 

[lajota]

Thank u guys .....I just starting to filling up the box so if I remember on monday I get a few more pics

 

[Monte]

[redwrench60]

Hey 86k10.....you ever use that eyewash station as a water fountain? Be honest

 

[hsracer]

Here is my SO 1022. I bought the box for a steal in 2005. I was collecting tools till I went to work on professional drag race teams. I mostly have SO and Matco with some Craftsman I'm slowly replacing. Just got back into a shop at the beginning of this year. I build race engines and high end street motors.

 

[JASTECH]

I like that cranberry colour too, have ever sence the first time.

The HASMAT locker is nice too and needed/code in most shops.

 

[86k10]

Hey 86k10.....you ever use that eyewash station as a water fountain? Be honest

No because it just drains on the floor and the actual water fountain is nice and cold.

 

[jeffmoss26]

Nice setup hsracer! Who makes the orange diagonal cutters in your plier pic?

 

[hsracer]

Cutters are Matco

You're well versed in Harbor Freight equipment... you are correct.

Cool, thanks!

 

[xurusaibobx]

What I use

same as my box except i didnt bother with the carbon fiber and top plate

 

[bart1]

Here are a few pictures of that Craftsman box I bought and some inital drawer setups. Not blown over by it, but it's a decent small rollaround for the money.

 

[ATC]

I spent last weekend re-arranging my garage. It's still not finished yet...

 

[allinon72]

 

[jeffmoss26]

Very nice! What brand is the toolbox?

 

[allinon72]

It's a Masterforce from Menards.

 

[bobcatdan]

You did a nice job on painting, even the inside of the drawers, nice,

 

[twincam00]

my HF box at school

I made the wood top as cheaply as possible out of 2x4's because I only plan on keeping the box til I graduate, then I'm buying a KRA2422 with my discount

 

[FlatHeads_Suck]

That top looks great. Are the 2x4s bonded or just held by the lip?

 

[twincam00]

theyre all bonded together, I made it just like you would make a cutting board or butcher block top, 2x4's were cut in thin strips

 

[O_M_Jeep]

So I gave in and re-badged my US General box and cart.
