GREAT score, I really think that Snap-on really improved the hutch with the nes design.
Also GREAT CHOICE on the color!

Sure are... 14.99 for the set every couple months on sale...
but don't worry boys I'm starting to drink the kool-aid. I just ordered the 3 piece set of 120xp's yesterday (they finally showed up in the system at carquest)

I'll bet your dealer loved delivering that sucker! Looks like anything bigger / longer would have been a huge PITA for him. My guy was happy as could be when I told him to ship my next new one direct to my shop since we have plenty of space and good sized forklift.

Thanks - my new hutch is so much nicer than Masters series hutch my co-worker bought about about a year ago.

The number is MB1098A-LG, I ordered it with the black door to match the side cabs. Here are the only other pictures I have of my old setup, Ill try and get some of the new one tomorrow. I liked it, it gave plenty of storage for big items, or if I wasn't having a good day and just wanted to go home, I could just put them in the hutch and close the door and go home! I also have a laptop I use everyday, so it was nice that I could just leave it in there. And just recently, I put a 32 inch TV (black Friday deal) in it to use as my monitor for my laptop. Then it got kind of small inside with the TV and Snap On had a deal on the epiq I couldn't pass up. I will probably get another hutch eventually for my new epiq.

Here's mine, not as sophisticated as everyone else's but good enough for me. It's a Williams/snap-on industrial. Yes I know I need some drawer pics but these are all I have for now

Picked up a KRL7022CPTN today to replace my KRL722
Definitely love the gun metal color, the carbon fiber drawer trim is pretty cool too

nathan - how much do those williams / SO industrials set you back and whats the depth of the drawers, i like that drawers layout
NathanC
Well-known member
I paid about $1500 the prices vary from about that up to 2200 online depending on what website. the drawer layout isnt bad but definitely not my favorite but i guess everybody likes there drawer layout their own way. the box is getting a bit small now for me being that the drawers are only about 17" deep! I see a nice second hand bigger SO box in the future.

Thanks. I had never seen the carbon fiber drawer trim before but it is definitely cool. The red anodized trim looks great with the gun metal color too. Quite an upgrade from my "old" KRL722. The extra 6" of depth is awesome.

If I sold the 722 I would be all set

Any chance that you could snap us a few pics of the hutch!?
I am at Nissan/Infiniti school this week, but I will take some Hi-Res pics with my camera when I return on Saturday.

Thanks. I think its a fair deal, there's not a scratch on it.

That's the box I've been thinking about getting. Does anyone know the depth of the full width drawer on the cabinet? I want to put all my sockets in there but not sure if the drawer is deep enough with Hansen style organizers. Any help is much appreciated.

Odd, I figured they'd at least rebadge it... it looks like yours still says International on it?
NathanC
Well-known member
well technically it is an international, I just think it sounds better sayin its a SO industrial
. same box and almost same price just a different badge!matt1977

From what you paid, I hope that it isn't this exact box, available at Costco in Canada:

Just measured it today and it is only 3'' so socket trays would be out unless you only have 3/8 and 1/4

Posted a few months ago, but didn't have any drawer pics. Both boxes are stuffed and I'm never done buying tools so I ordered 2 side lockers, a hutch and an end cab about 2 weeks ago for my Epiq and will take my Cornwell box home. I will definitely update when they come in, hopefully in the next week or 2.

I just built my garage last year, was lurking a long time to gather ideas. I started creeping this thread because once the concrete is down I am looking to by my first roll cab base.
While looking through the pages of this thread, someplace in the 340-350 page someone posted the exact same top box I have. Never thought I would see another one. My dad gave it to me when I was a kid and he bought a full SO box and outgrew the Craftsman back in the early 80's. The other guy said he got his in the 70's so I dont even know how old it is.
It is too bad they dont make them like this anymore, the stuff I look at in Sears now just doesn't feel the same as this when i open it.

Not being a **** here but what's with all the plastic cases? Appears there wasting a ton of space and costing you money for a hutch and side locker. I bet you put all them plastic cases in that side locker and you'll find your box is empty.

I wasn't looking at that I was mostly looking a t 10k dollar box full of plastic boxes, ton of pliers and not much of anything else, seems a huge waste of space and money

Each to his own man. Some of the most skilled mechanics I know spend more time making money than they do polishing their tools. . .
Shiny boxes look nice but only in a flat rate shop. . .if I see shiny boxes in an hourly place I KNOW I paid that guy to clean his tools.
