Rolling tool box seat.....

[Ji m]

I didn't want to start yet another thread with Harbor Freight or Pittsburgh in the title,
but that's what this one is about:

Mine doesn't have the obnoxious Pittsburgh wording on the seat,
but wow I love this little rolling box-seat already.
Great for putting the bare necessity stuff even closer at hand than a rolling tool cart.

Mine was a Christmas present,

Anyone else got one yet?

How is yours loaded up?


All 3 drawers are 7 3/4" ft to rear, 12 5/8" wide 2 1/4" deep interior measurements


Mine:
Bottom drawer
3/8" sockets 9mm to 19mm, & 3/8" to 13/16" & ratchet handle,
1/4" drive sockets & ratchet

& a telescoping 1/2" drive with a 19mm socket for wheels on it

Middle drawer:
dozen stubby wrenches, 5 metric S-wrenches, and 17mm, 19mm & 3/4" full size wrenches.

Top drawer:
Tape measure, allen keys, flashlight, pliers, knife & little 1/4" T-wrench.

Screwdrivers go in a holder on the back side of the box.

I can't be the only one who got one of these and loves it

I'll be honest,
nothing in this box is anything I'd get mad if it disappeared,
It's just the first line of tools for a quick grab, and hit the better stuff if the job gets more involved.

I wouldn't want to put anything in there that I'd need when I'm not sitting on the seat,
it's really too low to the ground to use as a normal tool box.

That said,
it's unbelievably handy!

Fold out side trays are magnetic too!
(cheap magnet backing, but it works).

so who else has one?

I've got the round one that raises and lowers.

I like to just grab exactly the tools needed for a job.

I don't need something that lets me take way more tools than I need.

And for working on the vehicle in the street or drive, some of them are too long for that box. Although my round one is no better for that.

And sometimes it's easier to work sitting right on the ground, like it was the other day doing ball joints and tie rod end. Old clothes and a piece of cardboard.

Farm & Fleet has a variation on sale for like $60, seemed neat but kinda unlikely to use unless you're doing the same stuff on a stool all the time.

I use an old office chair for under my lift.
I took off the armrests and back
I found this far more comfy and use a cart for tools instead of bending over to reach my tools
