Vintage toolbox id

[ianguilly]

I'm usually able to I'd any box pretty quick, but this one has me stumped. My uncle has had this box forever and most of the tools are vintage. No markings that I can see but he says he had it when he started at an industrial job. Any help would be appreciated.

That's the first one I've ever seen with a lock cylinder on the side.

I'm wondering if the top chest and roller are the same make. Home made. Can you get some more pictures of the handles (if there are any) and the drawer slides?

Thanks for the additional pictures. I'm still stumped and can't rule out home made but if it is, who ever did it was pretty good.

I think the cage/shell is homemade or s shop project...jmho

If it helps the story is it's from a shoe factory that closed down awhile ago. So maybe an industrial company??

Never seen one of those before but it looks hell for stout!
