Finally got it organized and mounted to the wall so here are some pics. As you can see it is the rebadged snap on that is so popular on this site. I hate it but it was $30 out of pocket, and since the garage got robbed drilling holes to tapcon it to the wall and add locks didnt matter.

Glad you like it. We made it here in Smiths Falls Ontario, Canada. Too bad they are not made here anymore

HF 56", just a few of the drawers. Most of what's in there is courtesy of GJ and the Hot Deals section. I went from that black/red CMAN (most of it is still in the box) set on the right to what you see below. I've got a CMAN 26 inch stack, that I had before this, it now holds doubles and less used stuff like my 3/4" drive sockets and 12 point 1/2" drive sockets.
I really don't like the hammer/pry bar drawer, it just seems like so much wasted space in there.
Don't mind the mess, I really do need to clean up though.

I did a slideshow so I don't upset the masses with a 5 page long post.http://s848.photobucket.com/user/Ruger_556/slideshow/Toolbox
57" x 25" and 625 lbs. An MB1000 is actually a lot smaller box but Proto does have their own version of that too. This one's closest MAC twin is an MB1850.

There is nothing wrong at all with a dresser!! Haha for a couple years I had a tall dresser(wooden chest of drawers). I graduated from that to a craftsman then to a better craftsman...then I bought another matching craftsman and then sold them for a harbor freight 56" then sold that recently for a krl7002

Only had it a few days and got it half full of gear I would like to add a top box but I would lose the steel top in the process

That was my very first toolbox. Bought one brand new back in '89. Gave it way to someone years ago and still regret that. Matter of fact have been watching CL and ebay to get another one

Here's my tool collection I've built up in the past few months. I had just a few Harbor Freight tools which I tried to use to change my brake rotors and pads, but they literally fell apart as I used them. So I've built up a good collection of mostly U.S.A. Made tools. Luckily my local Sears had a lot of NOS U.S.A. Craftsman left, so I bought the last of those and I was able to use the Hot Deals thread to get excellent prices on a lot of it, such as the $40.00 Craftsman bottom chest, used the SYWR FB coupons, etc. Anyway here it is, I think I have the basics down. It's all in a Craftsman 26" top and bottom.
Craftsman claw and ball pein hammers, a few Craftsman levels, and a Stanley tape measure
Craftsman Flare-Nut wrenches and six-point combos
Craftsman adjustable wrenches and some Vise-Grips
Craftsman drivers and Eklind hex key sets
Craftsman Premium, Thin Profile, RP ratchets, and breaker bars in 1/4, 3/8, and 1/2 drive
1/4, 3/8, 1/2 drive sockets and extensions
Craftsman RP twelve-point combos up to 1" and 20mm
Various Channellock and Craftsman pliers
Craftsman prybar set, cotter key puller, multimeter, c-clamp and a pair of Wiss Snips.
Craftsman Evolv 1/2" impact sockets, Gearwrench breaker bars, Craftsman nutdrivers, and some preemptive ratchet repair kits.

That's a classic tool set up. Those tools will out live all of us.
You're a smart cookie buying Craftsman USA!

Interesting specs on your box,looks like you got you're self a nice size box.yea looks like my mb1000 is smaller
What are you're large size sockets? Any large size wrenches?

I've got up to 1 1/2" and 32mm in 3/4 drive. Wrenches go to 1 5/16, our shop wrench set starts at 1 1/2 and goes up which has been annoying on occasion. I've been meaning to pick up the last few sizes to get me up to 1 1/2
Here's the final version of my box.
And it will set ya back @32000 with tax. Before trade in and discounts.

Been there done that. I have 35 pics of drawers in this thread. Look at my previous posts.
Here's my favorite three.
