Origin of Blue Point Box

[jeepinerdeep]

Hey Guys,

Anyone know the origin or possible source of this blue point box? I have seen them branded Fluke as well. Interweb research point to Waterloo, and that source dried up with the SBD purchase. I checked plano as well.

I realize its nothing special but I had a few at a previous job, and they were dang handy.

Yeah, Waterloo was OEM. They were rebranded for a handful of companies.

I have one in Craftsman trim.

Thanks fellas. I thought so. I'll keep an eye out on ebay for some of the rebrands too. There's CM on there now, but the price is higher than I want to spend for it.

This is from Waterloo’s 2008-2009 catalog:



Also house branded in black:

Nice post of the brochure. My work was giving away 3 drawer plastic portable chests and I picked it up. Surprisingly large - too big for my car trunk. Gave it to a friend for his RV tool box.

I like the 3 drawer plastic box.... but not in yellow. Craftsman branded one in red is good. Wondering though I've also seen an all black version, but would love to find a blue version.

I have the same box...... It's probably 20+ years old by now.
