OCD funny how that thing kind a happen's around here. My tool set Quality and Quantity has grown by leap's and bounds in the last few years.

This is one of my favorite websites!! I have learned a lot since joining!!

Tool collecting is a fun but expensive hobby, but I spend most of my free time in the garage using them...

It need not be expensive if you go the used route for a lot of them. My cost of all my tools is around 9-1/2% of the replacement value, and yes they are covered by my insurance at full replacement.

Ya a lot to learn from a great bunch of folk's that's for sure. I have always been a tool nut but I know when i bought my first house in 08' i had a double stack craftsman set up and Man have i come along way from then. Tool's, shop equipment and a whole lot more. I have learned so much already just hope i can pass it down to my son's. So many new brands and different tool's that i had to have some job's are just so much easier NOW.

I was just browsing through my photos and came across some from the beginning of the year, right before buying a new box.

I was tired of dealing with the replacement cman sockets so I bought 3/8 SO sockets. That started the madness. Only posting 1 drawer, the rest grew at about the same rate :eyecrazy:

Here's my two main boxes. Just got the Mac Tools today and will start refurbing it tomorrow. Bought the HF 44" when I moved to my new garage. You can also see my little Kennedy on top of the HF. Now I need more tools to fill the drawers!:willy_nil

Here's my take on a toolbox. Couldn't afford a big one, so I crammed exactly the things I need into one small box. She's an USAG 530, bought empty and filled up with extras, like the plier mount (made to go on a pegboard), a MotionPro T-handle rack and a home made rack on the left. Very happy with it, I use it every day and rarely reach into the cabinet below it!

For those of us who would like to know, but are almost scared to ask, what is a ballpark price on something like those Epiq all decked out??

Wow! I've been selling parts and tools for 26 years, most expensive box I've ever sold was $1900.... That being said, that Epiq sure is a nice box, if I turned wrenches for a living I would have to figure out a way to get one

Nice, sir! For my uses, I could never see a use for a locker, but with the power drawer....

Awesome! I don't have anything against the lockers, but for me, in a home garage, they lack some utility.

I'm the same way...in my home garage my double bank toolbox is all I want from snap on for storage. I have tons of kitchen cabinets and storage cabinets that will have supersede any cost effectiveness of any locker going on the side of my box.

I like that setup!

I've watched this thread for years and figured it was time to post at least one drawer.

I don't have many tool box pics on my tablet but this is the top Drawer of my Snap On, former work, now home, tool box.

image.jpg

I've left this drawer pretty much as I used it in the Dept. I was assigned to fir the last 6 years. Some of my larger sockets and deep wells are located in a separate drawer. I'll try to get the pics moved over to my iPad and post the whole box ASAP.

I also need to figure out how to post larger pics
