Where do you buy Tool carts

Every weekend on every car show on TV... I see them using what looks like a garage guys version of a side table.
They have some that look like a converted engine stand and some have the shape of the dentist chair carts. I cant seem to find them (or at least Im not searching for the correct term).
"Power Nation" and the old versions of these shows have them at every segment.
I'd appreciate a tool aficionado's assistance if anyone has any info...

V/R,
Mike

Have you checked Harbor Freight? They have several styles to choose from.

Re: Where do you buy Tool carts

Yes sir!
They just dont have the ones I see on these shows. It looks like a tray and has a single support coming up from the floor with wheels. I have a makeshift one but nothing as professional looking as theirs. (cause I only do professional work) lol
Id just like to find a supplier. Ill look for a picture.

I know which one you are looking for now. Three guys at work have one. I just talked to one of them and he said he got his at Pep Boys for $30. He said you'll want to upgrade the casters on it though.

BMERDOC;
Most of those (I posted from on line) got poor reviews due to construction and or shipping damage. Its a start though. I appreciate the quick assistance.

I have one like that but with a cabinet. I paid $3.00 for it brand new in the box. I bought it at Schucks. At checkout I tried to convince the cashier at least three times that they did not charge me enough. He pointed to the barcode and scanned it several times and insisted that it was $3.00 and not the $69.99 that the sign said on the shelf. I suppose I got a good deal although I have never really cared for the over sized tray. The over hanging corners have always been a concern of mine when maneuvering it near my vehicles.

I should be doing it myself but Im intimidated by welding still.
Dare I say it on here... I havent tried to weld anything yet between work and parting trucks. I have had it since Xmas and got the bottles filled 2 months ago.

I think this embarasement will push me to do it now. Thanks for the nudge...
