What kind of tool box do you have at home??

[circuitguy]

The bad part is that I have over $80k in Snapon tools and I still dont have all that I need!

I can believe that just by looking at your pics of your toolboxes and your garage. If I had to make a living with my tools you can bet I would have Snap On or Mac.

I have a coupe of Snap-Ons.

I just picked this up had to order it online. Good home tool box and pretty reasonable price for how big it is. I like it so far but now need more tools to fill it up..

anyone use the harbor freight boxes? I am getting my first house soon and want to get a box finally for my garage but I don't have a ton of money so I was checking theirs out....

I have all Craftsman tool boxes. A nice tower box and 2 smaller rolling boxes. I also have a rolling cart from Husky that I use almost everyday. Tool wize I have mainly Craftsman but I have tools from a lot of different manufacturers. Been collecting tools for years and usually have what I need or I'll buy it if it's feasible!

My brother picked up one of their roll cabs a couple yearys ago. Think he got it for around $700ish with the super coupon. I remember he said it's pretty good for a home box. Feels solid for the lower price.

Check it over carefully before purchasing. The quality was good until about a year ago.

I buy mostly craftsmen. Built a lot of **** in my time and broke some tools but cant beat the price for the wuality. I had buddies that had the snap on truck stop by monthly but they were always in debt to him. Like a car note. I don't understand why some one would pay for tools like that. Specialty stuff I get. But regular hand tools? You're wasting hard earned money that could be put elsewhere. And mechanics dont Make all that good of money to justify it

here's what I work out of. The little Craftsman boxes just out of frame to the left are what I started with out of high school. The stainless Steel Glide I picked up about ten years ago from Sam's Club. It's held up ok for a China special, eight years of daily use at the dealership, the last year and a half at home. the drawer glides are starting to wear out though.

This is about what I have as well, except my very bottom drawer is in 3rds. Held up to commercial use for the last 16 years. got it from sams also. It does not fit everything, the shop has cabinets and drawers all over. just my goto tools are in there.

I started out with Craftsman too, but once I started doing it for a living you notice a difference pretty quick. The trick to not being in constant debt to the tool dealer is to buy what you need to work certain models, instead of complete sets of stuff. The only drawback is that only works if you're at a dealer where you know what you're working on day in and day out. Just adding a little at a time over the years gets you a pretty decent collection. And the tool dealer you have makes a huge difference too. Some aren't worth a ****, and you play hell trying to get stuff warrantied. I quit wrenching professionally 2 years ago, and I still call my Snap-On dealer when I need something. Sears pissed me off years ago with their hit and miss warranty BS. I know if I break something with a Snap-On logo, it gets replaced. No questions asked.

And I still have a LOT of craftsman stuff that gets used regularly, just haven't gotten around to replacing it yet.
