Let's see your toolbox.

[cburnscrx]

ill post more pics when all my tool orders come in. ive got stuff from ebay, amazon, tooltopia and HF coming within the next week..should be fun.

Very nice box. I think the 26" boxes are one of the overlooked hidden gems out there. Now...filler her up!

keep it,
you'll probably need/want/miss/use it in the near future.

i'll never sell another toolbox, most of the one's ive sold, i regreted it later.

 

[98sierra]

Ill second that. I've sold some and suuuuuuuper regret it

i'm still kicking myself in the *** for selling a KR655 and the matching side box i had.
but they did get put to good use by a young mechanic that was working for me at the time....

i wish i still had my kennedy machinist boxes i sold dirt cheap back in the mid 80's.

the 3 or 4 SO & matco 26" mid boxes i traded in on my kr550/555b

:tard:

I just picked up the 26" roller for my mid and top box I've had the last few years. I felt like I needed to get it soon as I feel like they are going to discontinue the GRIPLATCH line.
Will try and post pics of the drawers in a few days.

 

[kool_BOY8323]

just got my HF order and half my tooltopia order in today...fillin 'er up!

HF boxes simply cannot be beat at their price point. ive got my cart, a side cab for the cart, and the 26" and im into all of them around 750 bucks. the majority of my drawers are full of at least something.

my buddy at work with the 6000 dollar matco, his drawers are empty...

 

[NJHandyGuy]

that is one seriously tall box

 

[amber lamps]

Guys, here is the source of my drawer slides. I used the 24"

Nice pair of mistress'...I have that disease as well with a 72 911E

Something tells me you will know what I'm about to do:

 

[jusridin]

My boxes, most are vintage, all of them are full and I aint takin pictures of all my drawers.

I also have a 3-piece stack Cman box setup. One thing I did that GREATLY helped being able to see in the top box was removing the wheels. I put the unit on some 2x6 lumber cut full length on each end. If you don't need to move it this is a good solution.

Nice stuff.
What is the blue bottom box on the end ?
What is the top and bottom box third from the right ?

 

[zkling]

This is my old box that I'm trying to get rid of with no luck of course lol

That is a nice setup(s). How many drawers does the side cabinet have? I agree with Crew, if you have the space and don't need the $. I would hang onto it. Maybe take off the top box, use it as a portable box. Then put a solid piece of wood to cover the bottom and side box. Use it as a cart/portable work station.

O... That is a very nice setup. I really like that stainless top box. I don't see a single scratch or dent on those boxes. Nice welder too.

 

[jusridin]

Third from the right are 50-60s craftsman boxes, the blue one is actually a purple her brand bottom box, it needs the top one day

 

[930dreamer]

This set was gifted to me today.
top- KRA-59A?
bottom- KRA-377A?

I'll double check after I unload them

 

[Kent_B]

^ I love it! (well of course, I would.) Nice score.

 

[zkling]

GIFTED? You must have done something right for someone else recently. Really nice boxes

Top is a KRA-59, but not a -A, not sure exactly what letter designation it is, but the A was much different. That looks like a mid to late 70's so C or D most likely. They look to be in really good condition, especially for FREE The bottom is super clean and is that a side shelf I spy in the bottom compartment? Yep, you ****.

Moved across the country to take a job so my tools have been concentrated greatly lol









Last one is a shot of it at work lol. Lots of tools to add so I'm adding a snap on toolcart to the mix.

Looks like a cool job, nice bench too.

Side cabinet has 7 small drawers. It was all the wiring tools and tools I don't use on a daily basis at work. Ill give it another month being on Craigslist and if it doesn't sell I'll keep it and figure out what to do with it

 

[Zeroek]

I always dreamed of someday working on airplanes. But for now it's cars and trucks only.

How do you like those Dewalt wrenches?

Everytime I feel down on work I just look around and slap myself back into how cool a job it is.

The bench is actually for dope and fabric repairs but the cj6's console took it over before I got here, so I'm working as quick as possible to get the electronics done so we can have a clean bench for doing fabric again.

How do you like those Dewalt wrenches?

They turn stuff and they are slightly longer than snap on. Lol I grab for my snap on's first but if I need a large wrench (rare on airplanes) or I need length the dewalts do great, if I hadn't have got such a good deal on the snappy's I could almost solely live with the dewalt's but sometimes working in a confined area the length can play against them.

 

[Extreme-Green-Boz]

Quick shot at work.

Cool job. My dream was always to become an aircraft mechanic. Maybe someday. Is that a T-28 Trojan I spy there. Those things are sweet!

edit: I see now that it is CJ6. Never seen one before.

 

[ecksman]

Just upgraded! I know, white but I like it and I don't really do too much dirty work, more diag than anything. Ordered the carbon fiber drawer guards. Tried on a few pieces just to get an idea. Gonna get the rhino work top soon.

The more I see white toolboxes, the more I like them.

 

[ianguilly]

Bought a Kr1000 & 1100 two weeks ago, not crazy about how high it sat so I Just stuck the 1100 on my 96 and called it a day. Very happy with the set up and how low the whole thing sits.



Crappy cell pic FTW

 

[zkling]

Wait, so you got rid your dream KR1000?

One of these things is not like the other. One of these things just doesn't belong....

The water bottle? or the blue oil bottle?

Some nice looking setups in the last few pages, I'm really digging that white box with the carbon fiber trim

No, no, it's clearly the Ohio tag on the wall!! I'll get a few more pics of the rest of my boxes, thinking about having all my cranberry powder coated to extreme green.

 

[alpinewhite]

It would be easier to paint all the green boxes red.

 

[turdferguson13]

I like your green cart ianguilly. Do you know the model number of it? Thanks.

 

[ianguilly]

Wait, so you got rid your dream KR1000?

Nope, I just split them up. The kr1000 is waiting for my snap on guy to move it home and replace my kr660.


As for my cart it is a blue point, not a snap on.

 

[Dieselholic24v]

Here's my new snappy and my old Mac it's replacing. No pics of my older matco at the moment.
