Heres's a pic of my cheap boxes. Kinda hard to see with all the other junk. One day I will step up to a real box but these have been ok so far.

clinebarger · 08-23-2009, 09:46 PM

If i need valve covers, scoops, & tunnel ram parts i know were to go

nice set up.

nds1968 · 08-23-2009, 10:03 PM

Only pic I have on my computer. I have a ton on film for insurance. Matco with hutch and side locker with drawers. I also made a pry bar, large screwdriver attachment that hangs on the side. I'll look for better pics later.

Longhorn Man · 08-23-2009, 09:41 PM

nothing at all wrong with a couple craftsman boxes... thats what i was expecting to have to use in my garage untill i scored on the purple thing

shifty · 08-23-2009, 10:27 PM

if i had the kind of money it required to buy toolboxes like that, I woulda paid someone to finish my truck for me

67ChevyRedneck · 08-23-2009, 10:42 PM

I'll probably be spending a few hundred on a Craftsman one as well. It's all I'll need for what I have. Now if I could get my garage cleaned out....

shifty · 08-23-2009, 11:00 PM

that's what i've got. a ball bearing craftsman unit simiar to what RatRod has above on the right a few posts up.

Worth every dollar, and pretty much all the space i need. I built in shelving throughout the garage to put the big stuff, power tools, etc.

funny part is, even with that toolbox, the stuff I use 99% of the time is in a custom-molded Crescent brand toolkit (Costco, $35) that's like this, but with 5x as much stuff (mostly sockets and wrenches) http://i.ehow.com/images/GlobalPhoto...olkit_Full.jpg

Man, that drawer set up is sweet! You'll know right away if your missing a socket, instead of months after you actually lost it when you really need it!

bobbo · 08-24-2009, 06:40 AM

Here is mine and my cart. A little messy from doing the motor in the truck. The most recent I have. Sorry the pics aren't better.

big_al_71 · 08-24-2009, 08:52 AM

here is the one I have in my garage at home....you can see it in there and it is full of all the necessary tools including impacts and all.

panhandler62 · 08-24-2009, 09:16 AM

Those drawer insets are nice.. I just shove stuff around until it lies flat enough for the drawers to close! lol

Z-71 · 08-24-2009, 09:52 AM

work

BarryB · 08-24-2009, 09:25 AM

Here's mine, I could use another one about the same size. I still have tools piled on my work bench that I couldn't fit in there.

prostreetC-10 · 08-24-2009, 09:46 AM

I really take time to clean it after each use. I have built some serious horsepower with this baby......usually while wearing my flip-flops!!!!!

I know why that pencil is in there. To write a letter to his manhood that ran away. I sent a post card. It's having a wonderful time.

I buy the Craftsman boxes at the Sears outlet.
Usually scratch and dent
Usually 40-50% off
I watch for yard sale stuff too.
