MAC Utility Cart.....

[mn_commander]

Looking at getting a MAC cart and I have it narrowed down to a MB1305UC, or a MB403UC. The MB1305UC is about twice the cost of the other. Anyone own either or? Likes or dislikes? Thanks!

They are great had one a short while and I use it more than my old snap on one. Highly rate it although I got it at a great price as a ex-demo after a big show.

oh i thought that model number was for the cart with the sliding top. Either way, no thanks. I 'm buliding a cart out of a cman open cart.

Thanks for the replies guys. Its funny you mention buying the MAC cart so you can buy a HF box. Im selling my HF 41" top and bottom to but a utility cart. Do you guys know if the HF cart has prybar storage?

Yes it has prybar/ratchet storage. I went to the stores and measured up the top tills and drawers of both the Harbor Freight 5 drawer and Sears Craftsman(Waterloo) 4 drawer carts. I then drew them up in AutoCAD and then made PDF's of them, but I am having some trouble posting PDF's to my Photobucket account.

Scratch that I figured it out to uploading to GJ, so here is the link to the thread if you guys are interested.

The main reason I'm going with MAC is that their carts can hold a 42" prybar, and our MAC dealer is great. But this HF tool cart has me kinda wondering. Will they hold a 42" prybar? Anyone have pics of their HF cart?

I have the mb1300. The only 42" prybar that it will hold is the mac branded one that has an extra long handle.
