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.


Have you tried checking at the DRMO auctions at your base? You can usually pick up ---- cheap at DRMO. It probably wont look nice but it will be functional. ANG units usually get new tools every couple of years and they aren't as hard on their stuff as the active duty units. My workbench top used to be a big maple conference table in our Ops building. I snagged it out of the crap we were sending to DRMO. It didnt cost me a dime except for the 12-pack of beer I had to give my buddy to haul it home in his truck.

You probably wont find any tools. You can find air compressors, tool boxes, and other miscellaneous shop equipment for cheap.

This is the box I have at work, yea, it's no snap-on or mac, but it gets the job done. I have a couple of other Craftsman boxes, one at home and my another one at work that my biz partner uses. It's a smaller one, but has a side locker on it. Anyway, that is my box and part of my bench :P

Yes, I know I'm bringing back a year old post.

How is the Costco box holding up after a year of daily use?
It sells for $650

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.

my little $60 jobby. gets the job done for the time being. seeing as i have like no tools right now. but a 52% discount from matco and i think 50% from snap-on will do me right in the next 1 1/2 years. and Mr. HomeMadeTurbo, that ---- is sick!!
