Anyone have one? Tekton carried them for a while but I don't see them on their website now. Looking for opinions/reviews.


I'm looking at this one. It's a smaller size with some height and a flip top lid. It checks all the boxes for me and I can't find another cart like it. It's also made in Canada!


I was quoted approx 1k Canadian.

I purchased the one from Tekton when they clearnaced them out a few years ago. I have been quite pleased with it. Built like a tank for sure.

Thanks. I'm glad to hear they're built heavy. Could you post a couple of pics?

I‘m a big Rousseau fan. Their local to me distributor (Pedlex.com) has a promotions section. There’s a yellow fully loaded one on there right now.

Personally, i feel like I’d prefer a flat work surface top instead of a hinged cover.

Thanks for the input. I'm using a flat surface cart now along with a Hazet knockoff. I miss the flip top. I always seem to end up with two carts and maybe that's just inevitable...The idea would be to attach a very minimal set of tools via a magnet to the flip top and use the surface area for parts (The mess)

It's here. Initial thoughts is it will last forever. Very high quality! It's small, which I wanted, and I plan on using every square centimetre. It'll take me a bit to set it up the way I want and I'm debating already on getting a third drawer. We'll see.

Looks good, always a fan of simpler carts that are actually carts. Interested to see how you'll kit it out.

I meant to message you...Metric has 30+ pieces including carts from trade shows if anyones got envy.

Poking along here. I've been waiting forever to get the VIM single mag rails so picked up a double instead and got it in a coupe of days. The price is just gross but whatever.

Started screwing around with layout. Did this first, which I liked but want more room.

Then I did this. I hate it lol.

I'm going to move the Mountains to the side with the other long wrenches and butcher the magnetic panels.

I'm really trying the maintain the open horizontal surface so I have somewhere to put **** and ditch a second cart. If I didn't mention it before this whole cart will be JIS standard. Well, 98%

This will be ever evolving I'm sure, but I now have everything I had in my other cart and more. Enough for day to day. I plan on making a shelf and and a tool tray specifically for doing alignments.

Can you post a pic of yours? I'm curious how you have it laid out.
