Re: Lets see your Toolbox!
There are a lot of nice set ups with the boxes here, but this one looks totally functional in any garage and it looks custom garage made. I love the color, looks like the old industrial Stanley Vidmar we used for bench stock. that thing is bad ass

Re: Lets see your Toolbox!
I had a medium size snap-on tool box that I got when I was 18. I had the top and bottom box for a long time. Snap on guy came in with a great deal on the larger bottom box so I traded my old one in and got this orange one. Because have always been browsing on craigslist I found my current set up. Traded the guy for my Snap-on and got three Stanley Vidmar tall box's. I kept all my top box's thought. I love these Stanley box's. They are as close to a Lista as you can get. Lista cabinets are my most favorite tool box though. These Stanley box's have way more storage than my snap-on had an the drawer system is great because you can divide your tools into sections. The dividers that come with them are great. I have Two counter height Lista's at work. One day I would like to buy all new Lista's for the home shop, a few of the tall ones like my Stanley's and a few counter height ones.

Re: Lets see your Toolbox!
mw83,
yes you are correct. http://www.harborfreight.com/roller-...ity-68784.html I had just enough room on that wall and needed the tool storage, so I said why the heck not. L8R |

Re: Lets see your Toolbox!
BB/Nathan,
I really like them, and have had them for about 8 months. I'm borderline OCD so all my tools are dress-right-dress in the drawers. All the drawers have liners but the tools still slide/shift which I am forever fixing. FWIW |

Re: Lets see your Toolbox!
grab the old school steel cabinets, anything built pre-WWII is best. I'm thinking anything pre-1990 Gulf War should be golden, after that is maybe at best...
