although it say's trade mark there is no trade mark registered as klamp-klaw. is there a patent? my guess would be for rounded fasteners.
Let's see your toolbox.

I picked this service cart up from Sears for $50, it came with all the tools. They're crappy, but good to loan out to friends/family when they use my garage for repairs

I'll be posting a sunex screwdriver set in classifieds in a few...
@Bchee
Metec is part of GEDORE and they made some nice tool boxes...nothing special...quality is comparable to the cheap craftsman boxes.
@Monte
How have you found that forum? Nice to see a guy outside of the 08/15 sites.
What is your profession?

What's not to like? A well stocked and organized cart containing Facom, Wera, Hazet, Knipex, and even a little Snap on, looks great to me!! Welcome aboard,
@ Hawk321 + bchee:
Metec is specialized in workbenches, lockers and cabinets, they also make some toolboxes. The better ones are Gedore branded or are from Hazet, but for 240 Euros (about 330 $) it was the cheapest german made box I found ;-)
@hawk321: a couple of month ago i found this forum accidentally through a google search. Since then i read here and now decided to join.
I work for a "time-work" (temp-work ?) company, so i work one month here the other month or week there...etc....
@Fedwrench: sharp eye !

and the drawer of my workbench:
a combination wrench set ( 1/4" - 1 1/4" ) and flare nut wrenches from c-man , Hazet open end wrenches and some chinese Facom rip-off locking pliers....

Don't know about nano-coated, but, yes, it's PB Swiss. Couldn't resist since they are really pretty... Work well, too. And you never pull out the pozi drive when you want a phillips...

Did you compare your cornwell with snap on that sit next of your box?
How is deep drawer is
on your cornwell??
I never see one as real that I can see or feel it.. I don't see any cornwell around indianapolis..

that snap on box next to mine is slightly wider and 2" deeper. i like my cornwell box. its done me good so far. and it was way cheaper than a new snap on, matco or mac. i got it for $1200 with the canopy. there is a cover for the top, but i took it off so i could put my monitor up top and not be blocked.

seth_man: i am impressive with cornwell box that you have. i had to bought snap on KRL1203 and KRl1003 as i only can find it cheap and my snap on guy are great and great service from him... i dont see any cornwell dealers around Indianapolis which it prevent me to look at cornwell tools...
also why there is Grace oil pump on your cornwell top box as used to pump the used oil out of oil drain tanks? my work has two grace oil pumps. few times i had to disassembled it to clean and replaced all parts inside because other tech dont keep screened funnel on drain tank which cause dirty stuffs in and Grace oil pump will **** it out but cause a problems inside as punch a little hole inside which cause oil leak out of pump's body...

the graphic is the grill of a chevy chevelle and an tachometer on the right and a partial speedometer on the right bottom. the top cover thats not on the box right now has a pretty cool cornwell logo in flames.
thanks Deafautotech. its an ok box, it does the job for now. i dont have a cornwell dealer around here anymore either. he got out of the business a few months ago becasue nobody was buying cornwell tools. ive since moved all my business over to my snap-on dealer who IMO is a very good dealer, hes all about helping his customers. and the pump is the washer fluid pump for my shop, it just needed a new set of balls.

that Grace pump are same one i use it at work as used engine oil pump.
Nice box.. I've got a 60" cornwell setup like that I picked up locally for close to what you paid for yours. Heck of a box. I dig those graphics. I've been toying with having a friend who owns a decal and wrap company make me up a design for the front.
Same thought crossed my mind! Break out that camera Elroy!
OK, Time for Elroy to come clean on the contents.
There are a few more items but Elroy is attemping to get them all stored away.

Stuart, I am most impressed with the amount of tools you have amassed for your young age! I started in buying my tools at about 15-16 yrs old and it seems as though it took me many years to amass as many tools as you have! You go well armed indeed!

I saw that Altoids box and thought, "Holy **** that's a small drawer, or wow that is a small dial caliper!"
Then I realized it said that it was the BIG box of Altoids and it all made sense. Uncle Buck

Elroy, you are far to modest about your assortment of tools! I saw many good tools in there.
I saw the Greenlee Knock out punch set, very nice indeed. Are some of your body tools those Sears used to offer some years back?
At any rate, thanks for hosting a spin around yer box!
BTW: I use the same cheap label maker for my stuff.
