Loaded up my SO chest

[Slip_Kid]

I picked up a nice KRA63A chest off CL this weekend.

I will use this box in my basement to help organize some tools. This box replaces a few smaller boxes. It has a flip up pegboard which I have a few items mounted to. The pegboard folds under the top cover. I have some socket sets on the top shelf and others tools in the drawers. I have a new lock on order from SO. I am really happy with this box, it's a keeper.

Looks good, how do you like that xcelite t-handle?

 

[outcast]

turn your screwdrivers. or else they will be rolling around.

also. take the VW tag and set it on the floor.

then use that hammer and beat the **** out of it

nice box! what did you pay for it?

i need a snap on box for inside too. i was actually looking for a middle box or a side box for my radio repair tools

Good point on the screw drivers, will do. But the VW will stay on the box. It's from my first car, a 1967 Bug. I wish my first car was a Mustang, the Bug was all I could afford back then.

The Xcelite T-handles are pretty nice, one of them is a ratcheting handle.

I like the way you laid those out, Slip Kid.

Can you share some info on that impact driver in the blue metal box? I remember my dad having one when I was a kid.

Nice setup!

It's a Ludell model #2500, purchased in the 1980's. I think I used it once, no manufacturing country on the tool. My guess is a Twain tool.............

 

[BuckHenry]

Very nice stuff!! It looks like you have a nice work space there as well.

It was very cruel of you to post that pic of all those beautiful green boxes with their lids closed! Could you post some pics of those socket sets for us SK fans?

I believe you are correct. I have K-Tool in that same blue box that is stamped Taiwan. I have also seen a lot of other impact drivers in that same blue box sold under various names, but all from Taiwan. I don't know who makes them, but they've sold lots of them. I'm happy with mine BTW.

Nothing wrong with Volkswagens, son.

Not if you have enough of them to fill the space...

Nice setup, looks like you do HVAC work?

 

[4x4gearhead]

Isnt that the older version of a KRA6200?

 

[Scuderia-F1]

Thats a GREAT box, I have the very same myself. KRA 63A is AWESOME!

Mine's branded as a Buffalo, and is marked Taiwan. Haven't seen the one in your case but I'd bet they're about identical...

Mine look the same as yours, just a different name on the case. I think it's a quality tool compared to the China stuff made today.

 

[Zrexxer]

I need to find some of those clips. Where'd you get 'em?[/IMG]

Snap On sells them, they're Stock# A278 if I'm not mistaken. They're about $21 for a handful of them, too.

I'm an HVAC Automation Tech, I guess you spotted the duct crimping tool.

 

[jeffmoss26]

And the Malco awls. I need a hobby

not if you mind working on needlessly complicated things, son.

but at least they don't shoot out their spark plugs

 

[outcast]

my dad had those SK socket sets. i still have some of them. the rest grew legs, before i got to them

 

[RC KID]

Great toolbox at an excellent price. I hope to find a deal like this someday. Congrats!

What do you work on that would make you consider a VW bug complex?

Do you know what the hole diameter is on the pegboard? I have the same box but can't find hooks that fit.
