There like $30 each I started with a kit that had a 3/8, 1/4, 1/2 2 wrench racks and the bit rail and added on to it but it helped declutter a lot. Thanks man they were a limited release a little over a year ago there's 3 in my area I saw it and had to have it. They did another ratfink cart this year reversed the green and black and was full drawer cart. Thinking about getting a buddy to stripe it.

I've got a ton of Ernst, but still need some for my hex, torx, etc so I think these will be it. Striping would compliment that cart greatly, be very cool.

This is my new box, Matco 4s in palehorse white with black trim. And also my Cornwell cart that I spend most of my time in. There is also a 72" red HF box next to my white one that I have for misc things for now until I have somewhere at home to put it.

And my main box matco 6s triple bay with hutch. Bought used for 5k was only a 3 years old at the time and some drawers never had tools in them

I love the variety of wrenches in your drawers!

Need more lol. I have some sacrificial wrenches for cutting grinding bending so if need arises it then gets mixed into that drawer. Never know when they will come in handy. Also in random stuff I got from my grandpa I have a Williams 31/32 wrench kinda cool never will find a nut that size but one day a rustynone will need it haha

Hey man that's still a great box to start out of. I started out of a carry box and at 18 got a small 26 in 2 drawer chest with an 18 3 drawer open top box on top for Christmas a year later my step dad gave me a 5 drawer 26 chest and I worked out of those for 10 years got a hf cart then 6 months later the 6s and 2 years later the matco cart. I did body work for 10 years so the small boxes were fine but when I swapped to mechanic side of things I ran out of room real quick. So take pride in your "small box" your still looking mighty fine

Are you for real? The box the other guy is talking about can barely fit 1/4" hex bits in the bottom drawer. It's a mini SO box. The upper drawers might fit a business card or two.

The pic has a 6 ton jack stands sitting beside it looks pretty legit sized to me

Or is that a 3bton and playing mind tricks?

Of course not, he just has a giant jack stand set.

Everyone’s got to start somewhere!

I really love my (I think) 1950's Rem Line tool box stack. Got it at Brimfield Fleas for 175. I have cleaned it up a little and making drawer liners for it. A person could spend many hours cleaning this. I am only doing kind of a light cleaning because I don't have more time. Maybe someday. And someday my shop will be organized!

 

[guppymech]

I love this tool box.

 

[ku17]

My Proto 550 box, it's a little over a year old and I love the thing. It's completely changed my shop organization.

 

[Revere Cycles]

Nice box, ku17! I love Proto stuff, but it's so hard come by where I live. I have one Proto dealer, but everything would be special order, nothing is stocked locally or on display.

 

[ku17]

Thanks! There’s no local availability of Proto for me either so I do my Proto shopping through Zoro. It’s one of the most affordable ways to get good USA made tools. With the proliferation of 2 day shipping, I rarely wait long for tools. It did take forever for the box to drop ship from the factory and that was a pain. Worth the wait, though.

Moving tools in! I'm having a hard time taking the sets out of the small cases they came in. I have some kind of disorder I guess.

 

[DSLTECHMEDIC360]

Been almost a year since I got out of the service truck and moved into this box. Just bought the HF roll cart a couple weeks ago.

You have the exact box I want assuming that is the 72” model. How would you rate it?

Yup! 72”x30” so far I like it 8.5 out of 10. The few things I wish the drawer would open the full length, get better liners as my tools tend to slide in the stock ones and now they also have the latch lock for the drawers. Mine are detents. I would definitely buy another one. I saw they have an 80”x30” [emoji16]

Doesn’t come close to fittting everything, so I’ve got more stuff in the basement workshop and in another box in my breezeway. Yes I’m a cheapskate so this is the lowest grade toolbox Sears carried so I am gentle with it. I usually don’t have all the stuff on top of the box but I have my garage arranged in snowblower mode this time of year, otherwise they go on a shelf.

If you decide to take any snap on sets out of they're cases I'd be more than glad to take the cases off your hands!!

I have been working out of a single drawer HF service cart for years and got by but very crowded. Then I upgraded to the Series 2 cart and quickly outgrew that and added the 26” chest. Now everything is overflowing again. Think I am going to pick up a 44” next lol.

Wow, the blue looks really sharp in these photos!

[beelsr]

skip the 44, go right to 56. or 72...

I really like the 56. If I ever wind up in a shop I would get the 72”

Agree...I have 3/ 44" and the drawers are just 2 small in depth and width for my liking. But I do plan on changing that when I put an addition on the back of the garage.

Do you have an FCF72 in a tray on the left? I use mine almost every day and love it.

I'm also pretty sure I have the same desk drawer organizer

? IDK my payments to my dealer for my entire bill are 20 a week I don't buy much from matco. I've had this cart over a year.

Mmmm not sure which one I have the small 3/8 it's a fcf936. My new favorite is this thllf72 small head since 1/4 drive but long handle has helped a lot. Those desk organizers are awesome lol
