Major suckage! I've been trying to get that snap ring plier set and wire stripper for over a month now, so guy computer shows currently unavailable for wire strippers and promo only for snap ring pliers :mad:

I've got a five piece green snap ring set I was going to sell on eBay but if you need them let me know.

Thats neat, ive never seen a green mac hard handle before

Most are gator nationals stuff, but for a very limited time they did make them. I have called them, emailed them, talked to the head cheese, offered up trillions of. Pennies, nope, they never are gonna make them again! I am looking for them every waking moment, so if you or anyone sees them, please lemme know, as I want! Thanks.

Sent from Fred's iPad, now whether or not it was Fred is up for debate.

Box has been shown in this thread- but some updated drawer pics added... Plus I moved some small drawers around a bit!

This is a home use tool box, so not too many fancy tools, but have a decent amount to get stuff done with!

1/4, 3/8, and 1/2 sockets on HF racks and the rest foam cut by yours truly!

3/4 drawer. Sockets foamed, wrenches tossed in! Don't use much- but they were a he'll of a deal!

Things that cut- foamed in!

It's a little known secret (unknown to all but extreme green owners) and a guarded secret that even after killing the lights, extreme is SO BRIGHT it glows for a few minutes until it cools off!!! Dont believe me, see the next pic!

All in all, more than I need as a weekend warrior, so still pleased with the classic 96 trio setup!

That foam is rad! Was it hard? What the tips and tricks to pull it off?

Foam is NOT for everyone. The true foam lovers with have their foam cut via CNC, but too pricy for me. As recommended via the forum, I bought large sheets from the foam factory, and cut them myself. First traced tools and cut, then just traced with a blade to speed things up.

The down side is it is kinda a waste of real estate in a sense, and changing of tools can mean recutting new foam. For me, it keeps things in order and from rolling around. As you can see in my box, in the cutters drawer for example, good tools are cut in and junk ones/china **** are just tossed in until I update them with good ones that will get cut in later.

Works well for me since I'm in suburbia, and often have buddy's drop by with projects who are clueless about tools, and this helps them find their correct storeage spot!

Tips and tricks- patience is key, closed cell foam in needed, I heard workout mats can work, keep a sharp long blade for cutting nice, cut a tad "short" for a snug fit, lay everything out way ahead of cutting to ensure you like it, foam factory kicks ***, a few beers help out, too many beers waste foam and cuts fingers, and oh yea, PATIENCE!

With the new addition of the CT661, I finally have enough green to post in here :D

Those Vessel MegaDora's look out of place, but I love them.
