Lets see your tool box setup, Small or Large.
 
Ok everyone, I just recently got a hardon for nice tool boxes, and went out and got a Snapon double bank with a SS top, then got a great deal on a triple bank addon side box.

Show us what you have.

turboman808 08-07-2009 01:02 PM

I am ashamed of my tools and tool set. When I buy my own house I will resolve this.

Color of the box and the car... Coincidence??? I think not! Lol

Erik 08-07-2009 01:49 PM

my ****s too scattered right now to snap pictures of it since im in the process of a move. I have a pegboard with a lot of my tools (chargers, saws, hammers, dremel, lights, ect) then a metal tool box that has my wratches, sockets, wrenches, breaker bars, a few electronics (OBDII scanner, another dremel), then a plastic craftsmen toolbox that has mostly stuff for electrical work like tape, wire, caps, then another tool box that looks somewhat like a briefcase that holds screws, more electrical crap, extra batteries, tapes, adhesives, things like that.

Outlawstar98 08-07-2009 01:58 PM

HAHAH, I have a 50pc carry box kit thing from a no name place, But I just use my dad's tools cause I still live at home haha. Im waiting for my dad to move his crap to the larger garage in the back, and then Im going to redo the small garage with a new coat on the floor, and a nice big toolbox and work center :) haha

CleanNeon98 08-07-2009 02:11 PM

My tools are scattered around my garage floor...no joke :(

russiankid 08-07-2009 02:17 PM

I don't exactly have a tool box. All my tools are hung on the wall. I have some impact gun sockets and adapters on the roll out table.

haha all the tools i own are craftsman. i rather spend my money on toys than tools. they are fine for the weekend mechanic like myself. :mrgreen:

05OCsrt-4 08-07-2009 06:12 PM

i'll have to get a picture of my box when i get back to work in 3 weeks, its a matco triple bay, i think 6 series with a stainless steel top

russiankid 08-07-2009 07:02 PM

I have a trusty Husky socket and ratchet set that is 10+ years old. The rest of my tools are from Harbor Freight, and guess what? I haven't broken anything from Harbor Freight yet.

I used to own a ton of craftsman stuff.....well I still do I just don't use it because I replaced it all with Snap-On and Matco. I find their wrenches to be absolute **** and they spread the jaws all the time and end slipping on everything. But you are right they are ok for the weekend warrior. I used to be a tech and plan to be one again once the auto industry picks up again.

My ratchets probably cost more than your entire tool set.....I have a 42 inch 1/2 drive ratchet I use for busting stubborn nuts and bolts loose that cost me about $150.

than you must be pretty weak :mrgreen:

all i have is a carry tool box (the style that you get in high school tech school)

ive never had my own place to put up a stationary box, so this is all ive ever had. its full of all of my best rusty old tools

I have a nice tool set in my garage, but i have no car to work on because it got stolen 3 weeks ago :cry:

99SL2_Modder 08-07-2009 09:21 PM

I can't post up the amount of pictures I'd need to take.

I have 4 boxes at work, 3 cabinets, and a gangbox. At home, I have an almost empty workbench buried in the corner. I think it's almost empty. I can't get to it to look. It might actually have some good stuff in it.

Probably. I have a 25" 1/2" breaker bar that gets the job done. I also have air tools with a decent impact gun. I couldn't get some axle nuts loose the other day with my weight on them, but the impact gun got them no problem.

Nah, its not that. I've tried breaking loose a crank bolt that an impact gun with 1000 ft/lbs of reverse torque could no break loose and non of my tools broke.

3rdGenMr2Girl 08-08-2009 12:47 AM

i have a decent set of craftsman, all i really need.

sillyeye 08-08-2009 09:38 AM

Craftsman is great for anyone, but if your particular to quality, you gotta go snapon or matco.

I break snapon tools just as much as craftsman, it's really not worth the extra money

sillyeye 08-11-2009 11:40 AM
