[Closed] show me your tool boxes!

My garage may not be the tidiest but i do believe in keeping my toolbox and tools in order as it greately decreases the time spent looking for tools doesnt it rustymac 😉 a little time spent at the end of a job sticking everything back in its propper place saves time in the long run - my first boss taught me that.

First job this year is reorganising my workshop to fit in yet another bike!!!

No more ? Was some awesome stacks last time we did this !

*unfriends ratty for his organised tool kits*

Mine is pathetic and all fits into this.

No photo, but I use an old metal ammo case.
Less organised than the one further up but it holds everything easily enough

My current set up

Although when I [url= http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/today-i-bagged-a-proper-bagain ]put it to the forum[/url] It didn't go that well 🙁

Cheers.

Whats your bottom unit ? That 56s or 72s ?

Looking at a 72 homak or american pro like that to build into my workbench

No Idea, the bottom unit came from Costco, about £400 IIRC, do you want measurements?

Its a homak then - thats the same as im looking at - how is it ? Quality as good as your red case ? Im sure its nothing like the blue one 🙂

Costco are doin a nice bottom one at min think it was 275 bit wider than that one

I have a nice chest and board but it's still total chaos so not showing you my shame!

Can't bet a good snap on tool box, but then I might be a little biased

even the old red one that I got 2nd hand is still going strong, draws still slide nice.

have a (non snap on) small 5 top box in the corner.
And one of these on top of the black box 😈

trail_rat, badged as CSPS, quality is good enough for home use, so are the runners but flex is evident & they are certainly not up to Snap-on standard, but the locks on the drawers are shite, I might just smash them off 😕
One of the guys at work regularly pulls out the bottom draw of his Snap-On KRL box & uses it as a seat (make of that as you will), but he must be 15st & the draw is already laden 😯

Just can't spend lots on a box no matter how nice or wide
The tools inside on the other hand.
Think the whole stack of used boxes I have cost me less than just one of the spanner sets

not enough 'persuaders' chaps!

I've been sorting my garage as santa gave me new shelving, spent 9 hours on it an its still not finished an have 2 full tool boxes to sort one I use for bike stuff one for car tools its mad how much you buy or keep cant wait till its finished

I also have something my Man shed as my first job for this year! At this point I can open the door and that's a bout as far as I can get in, with all the crap I've had to "store" in it!

I can only dream and drool over some of the pics in this thread. Probably would help if i also knew how to use half of the tools too! 😉

MTB ROB

With all that security straps across all of the openings how do you open the door, looks like there fastened to the door frame

no wonder it looks tidy if you cant get in 😆

Got full on tool envy in this thread! I need to sort mine out this year.

Ruffride - 375 for the big 72 homak in my local - you got my hopes up 🙁 had a good route about it also, didnt like the fact it only has 4 wheels - a unit of that size should have 6 - that said i was going to mount it on a wooden plinth a little higher than it stands and fix it well to the floor/wall
