Is that the Matco Proformance series double bay rollaway with the top cabinet behind you? :-) I have the same box, except mine is yellow :-)

Figured I'd throw that in.

I acutally just got the triple bay last week. 72" of bright yellow glory. I love this frickin thing. The $37 weekly payments suck, but that's how I got my Mig welder, too :-)

I feel your love for you box man....

Mine is smaller but it sounds more like your a technician which I'm not. I'm lucky because I got it and almost any other tools I need/needed for 50 - 55% off for being a student.

I want the side cabinets but they do not give discounts on those I'll have to buy them another time.

i see you got a heat lamp on the paint. is that an acceptable alternative for curing in the sun? the bay where ill be painting is surrounded by a dirt road.

Actually thats not a heat lamp its just a two 500w lamps on a tripod. When painting the more light you have the better. Its still not enough I usually end up holding a hand like 500w in one hand and the spray gun in the other when possible.

Using a heat lamp would help cure time but they are expensive...very expensive.

lol lighting is a must when painting. And a heat lamp would work nice to bake the finish, but don't over heat or else your nice new paint job, will be a bubbling mess
