Thanks Guys, it hangs on the box and then I screwed it to the side also.
And the name well that's me. Richard Douglas Cranium.... Just got to have a sense of humor. At least they didn't spell Douglas with two s's and make it douglass. lol

Very nice. What is the other epiq?
So what does a 68" epiq run these days after they cut you a "deal"? Just curious. There is a nice one on Craigslist r now for $3500 or best offer in my area

The other Epiq is a 60". I realized I needed the extra length and 2 deeper (4") drawers opposed to the 4 shallow (2") drawers.

$3,500 is a great deal depending on the size and top.

Just grabbed this today from my dealer as its hard for him to sell this style setup and this is what I've been after for a while. We worked out a deal we both can be happy with. I wanted this because I dont have room for my old 55" plus a work bench and I dont want to use my tool box as my work bench. More cubic inches than my 55" Matco 4S. Pictured next to my first Snapon box from back in the day. The little Snapon is a KRA2007 with a top I can't even find anymore on their website and the new is a KRL1056 with KRL1251 top.

Really loving the extra drawer depth. Here's one of two drawers used for sockets.

My tool chest and cabinets. U.S. General 44 inch is my new setup. Much much better than my craftsman setup.

It was a long 5 months but the 68" Epiq finally showed up:




I recognize that place! I just finished pilot training with SkyWest and spent most of my summer in SLC. I always thought the mechanics probably laughed at us trainees walking by the windows above and peering down on the airplanes, engines and tools below. Like a kid looking in a candy store window.:p Nice box!:beer: My class got a chance to go downstairs and check out the engine shop. It was fun talking to some of you guys down there and checking out the goods you work on first hand.

This is my 1st post with pictures and my favorite thread. This thread influenced and inspired my enjoyment for organized tool layout; a big thank you to all who have posted. Here are some photos of one of my tool boxes and tools.

I got the Stainless Steel top for the first box today, now they really look like twins....

Which then helped me to figure out where bolt went in 2nd box to hold top.

Very nice! What's it like yanking open up a full width drawer filled with tools on a triple bank? Not much different than a double?

Do not own a double.
I can stand on one side of big top drawer loaded with sockets and open it with one hand. Everything will open with one finger, push off the lock and pull.
Where the problem I was having with my husky toolbench unless you opened drawer in middle and straight out it bent and twisted. My c-clamps are heavy and were difficult to keep happy in light drawers, they are happy in the krl1033.

Twin KRA4710's, I picked up the left one late last year, I really liked the box, far more storage than a typical 40" roll cab, but not quite enough to store everything I have, I ended up seeing another one advertised a few days ago and figured a matching pair or fairly rare boxes would be nice to have..
