Husky 52"
Finally got some pictures taken. The top 'hutch' is really just to collect stuff that I don't want to put away. It would be great for battery chargers, but I don't have power on the wall the box is against right now.

After following this thread for quite some time, I've decided I want to upgrade my box at work. Been leaning towards a Proto after seeing Ruger_556's review thread, buuuut being from Canada, I get "special" pricing.. Top picture is American site, bottom is Canadian... Suppose I'll be buying a snap on box now

I don't understand why Canada and the U.S. are not more shipping friendly. I also think Canada should adopt the dollar just to make trade more accessible and easier.

Word to the wise "NEVER BUY ANYTHING FROM GRAINGER"!!!!!!
I have never seen as much markup on a product as what they do. I made the mistake of going to a grainger 15 minutes from my house and buying a jacobs chuck from them for close to $40 only to find the same one at Home Depot for around $10
I guess it's big businesses that keep that place running

Just mention your place of business to get account pricing. If your place of business has no account, mention your buddy's place of business. :lol_hitti

Yeah I work at a gold mine, and they get everything from there, I know they have an account, but even with mentioning I work there, the "discounted" price is still marked up more than anywhere else...

Hey GJ, I am posting for the first time here. Have been reading the boards for months and I really enjoy this forum with all the great content and photos. I sold my big snap on tool box about year ago to buy a house and have been rebuilding a modest setup, including the fake snap on box and all! :lol:

The snap on 5 foot workstation light was suppose to come with it but never showed up . Hoping it will come in later this week. It was either 600 off the riser or the light thrown in .

Picked up this old Kennedy box a few days ago for work. Came with a decent amount of tools as well. Might not be the prettiest box out there, but as my uncle said "it's got soul". :thumbup:

Picture of my little Matco box/cart when I first bought it brand new over a year ago. Wasn't planning on buying it but I was offered a great price. Since then I've added a side shelf and a bunch of tools.
