Post up your toolboxes/tools

I have a roll around "Mac Tool 3 Drawer" that I use for all my daily items. Then I have a 19 Drawer Roll Cab for all my less frequently used/Larger stuff. At the shop the Lista Boxes we use for stuff are atleaset 30ft long and 6ft tall.

My Daily Roll Around.
Top Drawer with Screwdrivers and Metic Wrenches, I have about 8 sets of wrenches but keep most in my big box (Note, I keep no standard tools in my Roll Around)

2nd Drawer is all misc sidecutters/pliers/vicegrips/etc.

Currently Re-doing my top that holds sockets/ratchets/pribars/etc. (what got me started on my toolbox kick today.. lol) will take photos when done.

Bottom Drawer is all Air-tools/Hammers

Nice tool box, Fishey. I'd have a hard time keeping things that organized (although I can be quite anal about how stuff is put away)!

I have never worked as a full-time tech, so the need for more portable storage has been my route - mostly in this form...

Posted Image

Most of my rachets, sockets, etc are Snap-On or Matco that I bought back in 81-82, when I did work in a repair shop. Shows how well they hold up :D

I have several portable deep tool boxes for specialized Volvo tools, and tubes I used to carry prybars/long screwdrivers - like the one in this pic -

... which is also my typical workspace.

I'm fortunate that I do also have access to a full repair facility with lifts, air tools, etc when I really need it. I like to work outside as much as possible, though.

I bought this box 26 years ago and it was as old as dinosaur shit then :lol:

I would guess this box is older than most on this site!

I wonder if I should have posted this on show me your stickers thread :lol:

Timing belt sucks tho - they should warn you that you'll think you have a coolant leak when you slack off the tensioner :rolleyes:

We can't post anything after a tool box like that, I could find a nice picture on the net but it won't be mine.
