Posted the box but not the drawer contents. The tools I use 95% of the time are in the cart. Im a fleet bus mechanic:

Heck yea, rocking the old Fluke 27 :rocker:

yes Im obsessive about cleaning tools, Nothing is put back in before it wiped off, Yes my snap on guy loves me, I no longer turn wrenches for a living so its a home box, that why I got white

Man that is so nice, clean, well organized, not cramped. :drool:

Added on to my home box. Will be nice to have some extra space. :thumbup:

Now that is my kind of setup. Nothing matches. :thumbup:

Yeah... The krl7022 is an odd ball (but cool) color. The kr1201 was cheap and the side cab was very cheap. Ideally I'd upgrade to a krl1023 and have enough room plus some bench space, but I haven't found the right deal yet

Warmpancakes you have a really nice tool collection, everything looks practically new.

Im slightly OCD, when the hansen racks get dirty I buy new, everything is wiped of after use, I replace the ratchet handles yearly, also not working on dirty greasy stuff helps, alot of the sockets are new, Until last year I didnt have impacts so those are new but I take care of my stuff, Also thanks to having a great SO driver Ive been able to grab the deals and replace some older stuff with new for zero/little money out of pocket. Now the cart with the more used items is a mess

Im the same way, but i only buy metal handled ratchets right now so they clean better, and i tend to keep my SO stuff in there storage cases lol. Everytime i use a tool it doesnt go back into the box, it gets set on the bottom box until im done, then i go back and wipe them down and put them back in the box. My tools look like there brand new and i use them everyday.

Thanks guys, some of you, I'm not quite sure what you're going to do with those pics lmao.

Carsten, it wasn't cheap lol. As for facom boxes, I've seen several posted here from the u.s., but I believe the majority are from our overseas friends.

GTA Matt, okey.. I see, i tried to look in older posts, but it's over 584 pages, so it's a big job to search all those pages!;)
And i can confirm that the majority is in europe!:)

Yea I don't think they are extremely popular in the states. What made you decide on that box out of curiosity over the other offerings? It is a very neat box indeed.

Yeah... The krl7022 is an odd ball (but cool) color. The kr1201 was cheap and the side cab was very cheap. Ideally I'd upgrade to a krl1023 and have enough room plus some bench space, but I haven't found the right deal yet

I was being serious, I really like it. Adds character. :beer:

Have really enjoyed this thread, finally finished all of it. I bought this box locally on ebay after selling my 41 inch craftsman tool box on craigslist. Was an even swap all said and done. I was pretty happy.

Do a google image search for "white snap on tool box", then "white snap on tool box site:garagejournal.com" without the quotes.
