So me mum bought me a tool chest

[l_bilyk]

Thin guage steel, 9 drawers that dont fit half of my tools, friction slides.

When I saw it, I wanted to cry.

Re-gift it.

 

[SANDOVAL]

That is your excuse. The box is too small and with your limited foot print you would like something larger instead of buying a second matching box in order to house all of your tools.

Re-gift it.

Anyone want the worlds smallest tool chest? It's good for storing nuts and bolts

I kid I kid... It breaks my heart to tell her it's a piece of **** and I dont want it.

 

[Luckydevil]

Take a plasma cutter to it and then tell her you accidentally broke it and need a bigger/beefier toolbox.

Whatever it takes to keep your Mom happy. I would use it to keep my Mom happy. Adam

Find something to use it for. She meant well and she's you mother. Now, go out and buy the one you wanted.

I had a roll around like that at first, now I welded up a little frame for it and turned into a very nice welding cart.

 

[JayB]

I'll give you $40 (Can) for it.

 

[mikeyr]

its the thought that counts

you will find a use for it and as your garage tools grow, will laugh about this one and use it a lot for something.

 

[REFLEXX]

that's like the Poodle of the tool cart world!

2x Re-GIft to a yuppy or Mig cart it like above!

Store your cleaning stuff in it....the toxic stuff

 

[Coach James]

My wife bought me a two piece Craftsman set similiar to that right after we got married. It wasn't exactly what I wanted, but it was more than I had. Plus she was trying to do something nice for me so I wouldn't have even considered giving it away. I filled it with tools then just added more cabinets later.

Always be appreciative when someone gives you a gift, especially when it's your mom. Use it, make her feel good and add another cabinet when you can.

similar box

I have one like that, I keep what I call "Implements of Distruction" in it

Also welding supplies, grinding disc, etc... stuff that'll bang up a good box and eventually distroy a cheap box. Notice the crow bar hanging on the side. I did lay carpet in the draws so I can drop stuff in without worry, the drawers are so thin they dent real easy.

I keep the good stuff in the Craftsman.

Excuse the mess, re-arranging at the moment.

I hear all the time that BB is so much better. Personally I don't mind the friction slides on my Snap on box. I would almost go as far as to say I liked them better.

On topic: If it makes you feel better, my mom got me a bird feeder and a bird watching book. I don't watch birds.

I haven't lived with my parents in 16 years but they know the rules. You don't have to buy me a gift but if you do it should say Craftsman on it some where.

Her heart was in the right spot...... I'd cherrish it.

Keep a Hot Wheels collection in there...
