Pics of my new Toolbox :)
 

Well, last week I got my new toolbox, This is actually my 2nd new toolbox this year, I outgrew my last box fairly quickly. It looks the same, yellow/stainless trim. But is taller/deeper and longer.

PIMP. I dig the name plate. 8)

Tool boxes are expensive, but they do give you a hell of a trade in on your old ones.

Jeff-

Re:Pics of my new Toolbox :)
 

I like craftsmen because I can use my ratchets like hammers without worrying about the consequences. I can only dream of the day when I can justify buying a $6000 tool box. My 2 drawer doesn't hold all my tools, but it holds enough of them for now.

Re:Pics of my new Toolbox :)
 

Me too!!!! ???

Re:Pics of my new Toolbox :)
 

Everybody should have a good set of tools especially if you work on cars. Remember guys he works on cars for a living so $6,000 on a toolbox isn't as much as it may seem.

I think I spent about $1,000 on craftsman tools and a toolbox back when I wanted to be a mechanic. My dad was also a mechanic so I aquired all of his snap on tools and his toolbox as well. I dropped out of auto class after the first quarter though. I remember when the snap on guy came and tried selling tools and toolboxes, now those were expensive. :-X

Re:Pics of my new Toolbox :)
 

Highly unlikely, almost all users are welcome, If I dish some disses, I dont mind receieving them as well. :P

Re:Pics of my new Toolbox :)
 

Did it come with tools? Just curious could a good set of air tools and power tools could justify the 6k

Nick

Re:Pics of my new Toolbox :)
 

Full of tools? lol... no Jesus snap on boxes same size are more money

Re:Pics of my new Toolbox :)
 

Nice man..Now I got the urge to work on my car. ;D

Re:Pics of my new Toolbox :)
 

Very nice Jeff, I love matco as well.

I find it more than funny how some of you guys have no idea how much "good" tools and boxes cost. Craftsman just doesn't cut it in a shop setting to say the least.

I have a matco box as well, I've had it a copule of years now. Its a proformance 56" and I have the top and bottom chest. I only have one pic that I could find. Let me just say the black looks soo sweet, yeah for about 1 day :(

Yours is a lot bigger so it seems...but I bet you didn't get 55% off of yours for being a student either now did you ;) Mine is already full, it certainly doesn't take long to fill these things!

I got a new cart too, (yellow) to match my new box... that thing wasnt cheap either, lol 500 bucks

Re:Pics of my new Toolbox :)
 

77" "drewls" I envy you father of homemade turbo ;

lol

Re:Pics of my new Toolbox :)
 

LOL dayum jeff I thought I was lookin at my toolbox for a minute. :o
Nice box bro!
I have the 7535 series,SAME DAMN color too!
Seems like we have the same tastes in tool boxes.
See you are more like the old man than you think. ;D
Oh and for all you out there,yes those boxes are Uberexpensive!
I had to take out a damn mortguage on mine.

A big tool box like that makes me think of the joker from batman,"Where does he get all of those cool toys!"

Re:Pics of my new Toolbox :)
 

Yea, thats what they all say. You will have the top box before you know it. I figure I could have paid for a college education for what I have in tools. I could have bought a nice new car for what I have in sockets and rachets.

Re:Pics of my new Toolbox :)
 

Nice Ollie! same color and stainless eh? My box sits right next to a decked out 7535, looks just like mine. Snap on came in yesterday with a truck load of boxes, I love just opening the top drawers and sitting in them, The snap on ones bend down like a good 3-4 inchs haha, Neither of my matco boxes would bend at all.

Jeff

Re:Pics of my new Toolbox :)
 

Thanks jeff,but didnt you say that your toolbox was a 85 series?
That box was deeper and taller than my 75 series PLUS,You have the spring loaded casters right?
I couldnt justify 2G's more for that lil extra space,OUCH!
But nice box anyways dude!

Re:Pics of my new Toolbox :)
 

Ya, its a bit deeper and taller than the 75, and its got the razzzu spring loaded 6 casters ;) I love it more than my cars I think, haha

Re:Pics of my new Toolbox :)
 

The coolest shop I have ever been in belonged to the manager of my favorite junkyard. It had a toolbox called the Macsimizer or something. Kinda like if you stacked another half of that yellow box on top of itself. It was all packed with snap on tools that hadn't been opened yet cuz he never works on his cars in the garage. He just uses the other toolbox out in the "real" shop. If he wasn't such a hell of a guy, he would make me sick :)

Re:Pics of my new Toolbox :)
 

check out this sweet ass tool box :-* :

the 'pull a part' special...

Re:Pics of my new Toolbox :)
 

that's better than nothing. i just started my tool collection (use to depend on everyone else because i'm cheap), so what little i do have, is in a paper bag :-[ but i did finally buy a jack and jack stands because i had a little "falling out" with my boy (i use to use all of his stuff), the tools i do have are really nice, and i must say, it is kind of addicting (buying nice tools)

Re:Pics of my new Toolbox :)
 

Yeah one of my mechanics at work just bought a brand new snap on box the size of your old one for 3 grand, and one of the older techs has a snap-on box that's over 8 grand :o

the stuff gets expensive man, to me it's only worth it if you do that kind of thing for a living, then you add the tools too and you're looking at 30-40 grand easy :o :o :o

not my cup of tea, but i know i'll be getting a moderate sized snap-on box sooner or later, just can't justify the price right now.

Re:Pics of my new Toolbox :)
 

i think every tool in my house can fit in 1 of your drawers...thats crazy cuz me and my mother are technicans.
:(

Re:Pics of my new Toolbox :)

Re:Pics of my new Toolbox :)
