What is the smallest Snap-On tool box?

[John Timmins]

I am thinking about getting a small bench top tool box. My idea is to keep handy only the most essential tools I use often; that is why the bench top.

Does SO make a 2 drawer or something similiar? I have seen a small drawer tool box at Sears but it was pretty cheap, quality I mean. I want something that the drawers roll smooth etc.

I would like deminsions and maybe a picture...approximate price too. thanks!

I'll just drop what I'm doing and get right on it.

What you need is something from Kennedy.

How about this?

Thank you...that was fast!

I pulled up Snap On but had compatibility problems with my computer.

I am restoring a couple of older Mercury outboards and don't use a lot of my larger tools, only 3-4 sockets and wrenches, screwdrivers, hammers and special Mercury tools. Somehow I have so much stuff all over the work bench I can't find anything.

I'll get organized and pretend that I won't mess up the work bench again!

Did you want a 2-drawer, or would a 3 or 4 drawer be better? Kennedy has them all different ways.

I had one of those Blue-Point hand boxes. Got it for free. Unless you can do the same, do not spend your money on one of those. IMHO it was no smoother or nicer than the Craftsman ones.

I'm happy with my 3 drawer Gray box. The drawers slide smoothly and are much sturdier than the Craftsman boxes I've looked at. It is big enough to be useful, and the handles on the sides really help when moving it from the garage to the car.

I bought a small S-O box with intention of making a small vault to hold one or two 750ml gass bottles and the liquids within and set of glasses in my office. All I've got done so far is to have a bit of decorative work.

If an intermediate box would work, I'll vouch for the 4 drawer Waterloo Traxx series I have incorporated into my tool cart at home. Heavy duty, ball bearing - nice stuff:

The last link ( http://buy1.snapon.com/catalog/item..._id=51&supersede=&store=snapon-store&tool=all) is a SO branded box but at $374 likely not for the faint of heart.
