Re: Show me your box!!!
well I wasnt sure what you were saying... I think a big box stationary is good to go and a huge cart for mobile. We have guys with boxes like my old one
And just push those ******* around the shop... I think thats crazy

That's my dad's (basically mine now) old school snap on box on the left and my craftsman box on the right. I was actually in the auto class at the community college here in longview for about a quarter, but I ended up dropping out. I still got a pretty sweet deal on a bunch of tools and a tool box though.

Re: Show me your box!!!
Heres what I work with. 99% of the time that I do anything to any of my vehicles, or my friends...I go to the hobby shop on base. its a garage that has every tool you can think of for free that you can use. So I really have no reason to buy tools. I have mentioned a few times, i have colleceted most of my tools from swap meets and hand me down ----, and I have even come across decent sets of tools at garage sales. Like I said, I dont really have much tools, but I have what I need to get things done at home. sockets, wrenches, screwdrivers, pliers, that kind of thing. 99% craftsman 1% snap-on.
I picked this box up at the scratch and dent sale at sears, ball bearing, heavy duty casters, it locks, with a nice key, has the latching type drawers, pretty nice for $200, what was wrong with it, the key was missing, which they replaced for free. $460 box, I paid $200 for it. Its full now, with tools, but im gonna fill it up some more, hopefully shortly. -before i go to japan. :P
I also have another set as my "junkyard kit" its one of those carry case kits, 120 piece or someshit, i have a few cheap screw drivers and a pair of pliers, its perfect for when i go to the junkyards.

Cadracer (ted's) Matco Tripple bank box..
Mines just a tad taller and a tad deeper (had to get a bigger box than ted!) However he has probably about 3 times as many tools and a sidelocker..
And his is paid off
