Here are my tool boxes at work. I built the top box about 9 years ago. it's nothing fancy, just plywood with oak fronts and handles. Ball bearing slides and box joints on the drawers.
The front panel locks it up like a kennedy box.

Not really the right thread, but does anyone know where to buy this box? It's a 6-drawer desktop Craftsman box, perfect for electronics and small lathe tooling.
And yes, I know there are misspellings on the drawers, it's not mine (yet).
::EDIT:: Google image search strikes it lucky. I searched by image, plus the terms "6 drawer" and toolbox. It's a Craftsman 965142 tool caddy, no longer available.
So... anyone know where to get one?

I'm not a huge fan of wooden boxes, but that is exceptionally nice. Great job on the build. Kinda funny as Kennedy makes a box just like that, but in metal. What do you typically work on? I spy some nice equipment in the background.

For about two months, my top drawer on my 44" box only opened to a certain point. It seemed to stop on the right side while the left side had more room to pull out. It annoyed me because I couldn't easily grab a socket out of the back, but never looked into it. Last night we were looking at it and I disengaged the top right slide, that was the culprit. The drawer opened all the way. The I engaged it, gave the drawer a gentle but solid pull, and broke the slide in for the rest of its travel. It worked. Then I did it for all my other drawers, Now I have full access to every drawer haha. I just never broke them in right off the bat, they all just needed to be extended a bit.

Ahhhh a Snap-On badged HF44!!!! Holy **** and it's filled with Snap-On tools! What the hell is wrong with you! You should have a legit Snap-On box filled with re-badged HF tools!
Go sell everything, re-mortgage your house and do it right!
In all seriousness though, nice setup! Are those all the green tools you have? More drawer pics please! I just started kinda collecting green (only a mini pick set so far) but I just can't justify repurchasing a bunch of the tools I already own just to have green, but every time I upgrade or warranty I'll take the old red ones home and replace work tools in green!

Might be picking this guy up on Tuesday from the snap on guy. Wants 500 for it. It's from the strictly toolbox line. Goes for 1k he wants 500.

I would jump on it. You can't go wrong for $500. Will he carry it?

What do you mean? Will he carry it. I will get first dibs on it on tuesday.
Is it a cash up front deal or is he doing payments on it? AKA carrying the note or debt,
I'm sure there are shelves in there.Seems like a waste of space to mount it sideways

My Home 56 HF with a mix of everything. Ran out of space, going to either get a 44 or a top. No SAE stuff since I only work on metric things.
Kaane, how do you like the Genius Screwdrivers?
I like them a lot. I bought them because my Wera's are impossible to keep clean when I am working on greasy stuff. So I wanted something easier to clean that won't break the budget. I paid $63 for entire set. It's well finished and comes with all the lengths I would ever need.

Hello Garage Journal!! First post here. This is a 56" combo box from Extreme Tools. My shop has an 8" C-purlin support that runs horizontally around the shop, so I had a buddy build a stand for the top box and slid them both under the purlin. The things a guy has to do due to limited space....
