Minor tool truck disaster

[chadster1]

Two sections of my shelves are on wheels so they can be moved around. This is what happens when the strap breaks that holds one of the shelf sections.

 

[Rigmaster]

was that strap made in China????

 

[mkdive]

Were you driving when it happened?

 

[mrshaun]

well chad have a good day picking all that up. atleast your shelves will be straightened out a little better... sorry...
I had a bigger truck and it was blown off the road and I had to come back on at 55 before going into a culvert. my truck had no tools on the right side after that ballet performance.l
only 3 of 6 wheels were on the ground at one time... not fun. didnt have to change my shorts though... that was good.

Looks like the shelves missed the tool box.

1/2 price "scratch and dent" sale?

 

[kartracer55]

If you bought your straps from Matco, this wouldn't have happened...

Mine just did.

I was thinking the same thing.


Sorry it happened Chad. Hopefully it won't take too long to straighten out.

Someone got a workout today.
That ***** to see.

 

[Mickey O]

That *****, but nobody was hurt and that's a good thing. Hopefully not to much damage.

It took about 30 minutes to get the shelf back upright and put stuff away. Several packages will need to be re shrink wrapped. The only real damage that I have found so far is to my knife display case mounted on the back wall. The shelf broke the bottom piece of that display. I will need to order another display case. I have been finding atomic fireballs all over the truck though. My candy bowl was on the top shelf.

Maybe this should have been posted under the Snap ON abuse thread

I wonder if you could modify one of those lock down clamps to secure that rolling rack. Of course it wouldn't hurt to have a backup safety chain or something.

 

[Mr.Nutcase]

Ouch.......

 

[mrshaun]

small metal strap like furniture shops sell. basically plumber strap...
might try that and use a small bolt to remove easy with a cts561.

 

[walrus]

That *****

Happy Mucking Fonday.

It seems obvious that your Snap-on tools attacked the HF stuff in the middle of the night. Makes perfect sense to me.

A 2" strap hooked into the e-track. It is now secured like a toolbox is.

Does this make you guys happy?

How did you get all the stuff from those shelves into that little box?

Its a trade secret.

What's the PN on the wood box? Is it a WR, or WRL?

Need a better pic of the contents of the box.......

I think it would be a WB model.

At least no one got hurt, seem like a pretty easy clean up.

A 2nd vote to see the contents of the discount box.

[bry@n]

wow...bummer. Glad you got squared away quickly.

 

[LGMechanical]

The box! What's in it.?!?

 

[wellstig1]

Thats good that you do that for your guys. My douche of a snap on guy tries to sell the tools that he uses for repairing and rebuilding broken ones as new at full price even when there are dirty and obviously used.

 

[chadster1]

I have a box like that at all times on my truck. The inventory that is in it varies on a weekly basis.

Good thing you don't run the route around here. If everything in the truck rotates though the "little box", I'd wait until it was in the box to buy it.

It dont work that way. Rarely are there sets in there and rarely air tools and never cordless tools. Its mainly singles in screwdrivers, 936 series ratchets, old style prybars, last generation dikes, etc. I dont take orders for the discounted tools and I will not hold anything. Once its gone from the box, I might never have another one like it in there. It is stuff that I get at a discount to begin with because it might be truck worn or discontinued. It is extra work to place the orders for these tools but I sell a lot of tools out of that box. No, I cannot sell anything out of the box to anyone on here. All internet orders have to go thru the website linked in my sig.

Sorry that happened but I'm glad the damage was limited.
