36140, The Tool Box thread
Posted by eclipse982nrRST, Oct-09-08 08:02 AM
Terry and myself were talking about tool boxes the other night in chat, so here it is, if you own a box, post up some pics.

Here is mine. Matco tripple bank with matching hutch. Silver with anodized blue handles. Also upgraded to the full stainless steel top. I also have a fold cover that covers the entire box, but its folder back and up for now.

How often do you repaint that thing? Looks like the lower drawers are a bit crooked, too. :rolleyes showoff.

My toolbox is a used Air Force standard issue from back in the Desert Storm era. I've also got an old Craftsman "rolly" from my FITL. It's full of odds and ends that I rarely use.

If you can't carry it with you in the car, it's practically useless, imo.

Never been painted, ROFL.

Also, maybe your the one with the lazy eye, and not me. No drawers are crooked :)

Nice Mike. What's funny is before I got to this thread I caught a glimpse of your box in your other thread and was wondering what it was because it looked nice :)

My GF and her dad got me this -
a couple years ago, it was the coolest gift ever.

:shrug I normally just use a hollowed-out plastic case that a saw came in.

Don't worry, we all got the reference.

I don't think I got a pic of my 40 (?) year old Snap-on top half box. I bought it used and it has lasted me for ever. But it looks like it too.
