Here is my road box as of now. I bought it used off the Snapon truck. He got it in from warranty for the paint coming off all over it. Took the box completely apart and sanded/sandblasted it. Had it bed lined with xtreme liner. Had the front panel Camo dipped by Duckvilleimaging.com the slapped on a new orange Snapon sticker. Had some stainless side cabinets made and built some wrench racks to hang all my wrenches up. Built a frame under it and put tubes on it so I can load and unload with a fork lift. Still working on a cart for it for when I am not in a service truck.

My at work box on left. Older KRL series 72" wide. Was purchased in the late 90's, back when they were somewhat affordable, haha. The riser is the half riser deal, it was the first one that they came out with. I'd like to get a full riser for it, but my "at work" stuff is not as important anymore, as I'm a fleet mechanic, and the job doesn't require a lot of tools.

Just recently purchased the red 68" Epiq for my "hobby shop". It's my first red toolbox, and I'm still not sure if I like red tool boxes, haha. Buying stuff twice sure does ****, but it's nice to not have to bring stuff from work!

I've owned a cornwell, multiple snap on boxes, and a matco, but haven't owned a MAC.

Looks like a '73 next to the red box. Bought that car new when I graduated from high school. Ran like a scalded dog; but was a real rattle trap.

I had run out of room in my 40" wide griplatch top & bottom chest so I bought the full drawer mid chest. I ran out of room with that so I bought the side cabinet. I ran out of room again and don't have room to add a cabinet or locker to the other side so I bought another full width drawer mid chest. I wouldn't suggest this if you aren't 6' 10" tall or you won't be able to see in the top.

why not add another side box on top of the one you already have?

Here's some of my stuff. I do have a lot more sockets and wrenches in the top drawer that are stacked and can't be seen. By the way, all of this is just for hobbies, I'm a 19 year-old student studying Electrical Engineering. Also, these pictures are a couple months old, there are more tools added since.

I've posted a pic of both my cart and my box in the past, but figured I'd update with a quick shot of my tool storage corner in my garage.

The Husky top box and the Gladiator intermediate box are relatively new additions and so everything's in disarray as I figure out what's going where.

To supplement both my cart and my boxes, I have a very heavy duty 5 drawer lateral filing cabinet and another more conventional filing cabinet. Tucked away in the back corner is a kitchen-style pantry cupboard that I've repurposed and unfortunately didn't snap a full-on picture of it today.

Anyway, just wanted to update the thread w/some of my "newest" additions & show my assortment. At some point, I'll actually get around to getting pictures of the drawers.

Hmm...not letting me post the pic of my lateral filing cabinet & cart. I'll come back to this later, for now, off to work.

Haha, nice! Yes that one is a '73, good eye! There are two more (dusters) in there also. A '74, and a '71.

Matco makes some sick *** boxes! I love them! I wish my matco dealer was a bit more reliable, hes almost on his last leg as a dealer so I don't want to load up on too much matco in fear of losing access to my dealer!
