Came across this mini tool box brand P.I.T. master on Amazon and they looked really similar to Snap on‘s mini tool box. Snap on lists as made in china and minus snap on badge looks identical to ones on Amazon. My guess is P.I.T. Master is the china OEM for snap on and they are selling direct on Amazon; $122 vs $46. Obviously this is a novelty type item but put on a workbench top for storing rulers/markers/pencils I think it’s pretty cool. For $46 I figured what the heck and ordered a green one, will report how it is when Amazon delivers.

I think I got my 95th anniversary for free, but my dealer is getting too flaky. So no more free stuff. Thanks for the heads up.

Could be the same supplier, or could just be renders that look better in pics than in person.

Looking forward to your results.

Would love a couple of these but the prices DO NOT transfer well to GBP!

Read reviews on Amazon and for the most part the negatives were all centered around people not realizing how small it is, even though dimensions are stated. Knock on wood as long shipping box doesn’t get torn up it should be a neat little box. Just need to find a vinyl cutout Snap on stick on ebay/Etsy now :LOL:

Cheers, thank you. After I posted, I went back to Amazon to forward the link to a mate, and if you go direct to Amazon.co.uk they come up around £44 or something anyway. Not sure why they come up so expensive by following the link?

You can also get them loaded with tools for another $20-30. They are the same as sold by Snap on. If you notice on Amazon a lot of people are buying the snap on badge to add, lol.

Quality is pretty crappy to be honest, on par with other cheap Chinese boxes I've seen and probably worth about $20.

I got one for my son for his birthday. He uses it to keep things organized on his desk. I think it was $36 when I bought. It was exactly what I expected it to be. It’s a cool little box but I agree, $20-$25 would be a more appropriate price.

My green box came today, sheet metal, drawer and top lid open/close are all perfect, paint is even a match for Snap on Extreme green. The only negative is two spot on the paint job, inside top tray corner missed spray and lid hinges. But overall I’m really happy with it and it even comes with drawer liners :)

I have a red set and pink set of the Snap-on boxes. Both are missing paint in the same places. They obviously spray them with the lid closed.

Purchased the blue Kobalt box today and received $2.00 veteran discount. The key was finding someone that knew the location.
Thank you Nuttsgt for posting the link!

I forget where I found this one. it's 6in tall & 10.25in x 6.25 in. (UMD for scale) I think it came with some real cheap tools in it which didn't past muster, & I just picked it up for the box alone.

OK so I have actual snap on green top box, and I ordered the pit master green bottom, it's a bit off but only cause I have extreme ocd. But can some one tell me where to find the actual snap on badge? as I'd love to switch. I am pretty crafty and did make one but I'm picky not really liking the one I made. However I love mine. Enough my daughter wants one and I was not forking out the money for another snap on one. Mine was a Christmas gift. But her red pit master one is due to arrive this week. Here is my green one and now contemplating a pink one for my craft room. Sigh. My husband paid over 200 cdn for my top box1000001667.jpg
