Show me your box!!!
 

Alright guy's, I thought I'd start something new. Since this is an automotive forum and we all work on our vehichles, we must have tools right? I want to see what everyone works out of, post up your toolboxes. Should be interesting to see just like the "post up your room/ house/pets/ naked wife" pics O0.

I just stepped up my old Craftsman box this week and bought this one. It's a hella lot deeper than my old one, more draw's all ball bearing, and it's a Blue Point from Snap-On. Would have gotten better pics and an open shot (things taller than me open), but there was a truck parked right behind me.

Ive got just the essentials realy, 285 piec socket set, compressor with all the air tools, few nice breaker bars and long long socket extensions, specialty 32mm axle nuts, bunch of hammers, engine assembly tools, grinder (electric and air), and a die grinder, huge set of screwdrivers from 3"-2', torx screw set, mallets

---- I dunno how Id ever have a tool box Im so messy

At my work everyone steals eachothers ---- to, I got most of my stuff from the tool crib

Oh ya, Ive got a full set of aerospace quality 0-12" mics and a few bore mics and about 3 torque wrenches

Re: Show me your box!!!

Matco tripple bank, SS top... This picture is old, but I actually have a nicer cart now.

Re: Show me your box!!!
 

Haha, that name plate is awesome. Nice jeff, thanks for posting up. :)

Re: Show me your box!!!
 

wow that is sick jeff :o, how much does something like that run? if you dont mind me asking

Re: Show me your box!!!
 

more than what most of the people on this site drive.

Re: Show me your box!!!
 

Abaz, who makes that stainless steel box that's next to yours? I like that look. I wanted something like that and asked Snap-On if they have anything similar, but the only thing close was Arctic Silver which wasn't even silver. It was more like gray primer with clear coat over it. I like the triple bank you got. Snap-On charges $8100 for a triple bank and that's without SS top.

Re: Show me your box!!!
 

8100? damn im about to start a tool box company O0

Re: Show me your box!!!

Thats all my stuff besides the air compressor im to lazy to go back out there to take another picture

Re: Show me your box!!!
 

I dont know who makes that box, but you can get it from (costco) its a local place that sells massive ---- in super bulk. Great deals too, that stainless box is pretty badass. Our journymen tech bought that as a entry level box. I think he paid 750 bucks!! really good deal, its all ball bearing (includes top and bottom) I'd definatly sport one of those at home.

I dont think Snapon/matco/Mac anyone has a big tripple bank that is fully stainless, my bosses really wanted a fully stainless box, but ended up getting the "titanium" color

Which in real life looks like primar grey, hahah. Its the same as my box, but he has a hutch and top storage. I paid around 7600 for mine, and the cart was 500.

Re: Show me your box!!!

Re: Show me your box!!!
 

That's like the same color Snap-On offered me, but declined it because it looked unfinished. I'm considering Chevelle Orange or Lime Green. If you watch American Hotrod on Discovery Channel, you'll see the colors I'm talking about.

Re: Show me your box!!!
 

Jeff are you happy with that box my friend just ordered the same one. He should be getting it in a week

Re: Show me your box!!!
 

ya I like it, the way I see it, is I will never have to buy another one in my lifetime ;)

Re: Show me your box!!!
 

I need tools of my own other than the plastic case of allied ---- in my trunk.

Re: Show me your box!!!
 

Not like you big ballas...but here's my space and 'box' :)

Re: Show me your box!!!
 

Damn, very organized xenocron. mattneclipse I like that cranberry Craftsman you showed. I've never seen one in that color before.

Re: Show me your box!!!
 

Its ok but it not ---- to the matco one i wanna get. they custom color it for you and i think my tattoo artist will penstripe it for me. yeah kinda corny/stupid but i love old school

Re: Show me your box!!!
 

damn i need to get a cheap ass tool chest

Re: Show me your box!!!
 

Here you go bitches. I'm 5-11 and I cant see in the top drawers ::). Its filled to the tits with snapon crap. Next year I want to get the bigger bottom cuz this bitch is full ;)

Re: Show me your box!!!
 

^^ you wanna donate that to me when you get a new one :P

Re: Show me your box!!!
 

You are a highroller huh? I can't even imagine needing a stepladder to see what's in my toolbox. lol, nice box though.

Re: Show me your box!!!
 

I pull out the bottom drawer 1/2 way and stand on it. Fucker doesn't even flex ;)

Re: Show me your box!!!
 

ha.. thats funny you say that.. before I bought my box I was looking at a similar model snap on, and that is the first test IMO. Open the top drawer and sit in it. Well I did it to the snap on box, the entire drawer was sagging and I think it got ------- bent when I did that? lol... it didnt shut to smoothly after I did that.

Right now my top drawer is completely full and I can sit on the top of it with it all the way out. I've seen some really really nice snap on boxes and some pretty cool mac boxes, but I am so glad I bought a matco box, the quaility is just so much better.

Re: Show me your box!!!
 

I dont get matco here (canada) so I cant say for quality, some of the snapons are cheap there is more than 1 line. Mines the top model, krl I think. I dought your skinny ass could bend my draws but who knows. I like your box jeff, I wish I could get away with a smaller one so I could move it around but I have to take the top off just to get it under the hoist. :-[

Re: Show me your box!!!
 

Re: Show me your box!!!
 

haha, I'm 200lbs now ;)

Dude why dont you just get a really nice cart and keep your box stationary?

Re: Show me your box!!!
 

Do you really think I take my full top off on a regular basis? :-X Of coarse I have a cart. :P

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

https://www.homemadeturbo.com/misc/box1.jpg

And just push those fuckers around the shop... I think thats crazy

Re: Show me your box!!!
 

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
http://www.we-todd-did-racing.com/we...MXk1NDE%3D.jpg

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.

Re: Show me your box!!!
 

^^ damn thats a good deal, hopefully they have a scratch and dent one at sears when im looking to buy one

Re: Show me your box!!!
 

they are always having those sales. just go in there and as someone. -i know its not a just one store thing to, my father-in-law told me about it...its nothing advertised, you just have to ask.

i have wanted some ratchiting wrences for a long time, they had a close out of the 7peice set for $35 (i think they have a 9 peice now) -they had a few on the shelf so i thought i could come back at the weekend (payday) those ------- things were gone...so im gonna go to a different sears this weekend. :P

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 :-X
