Show off your tool box.

I just did a quick clean out and reorg of my box. I had one deep drawer with a bunch of random parts and car stuff that I have moved to a storage box.

pictures are from my iPhone. I'd break out the DSLR but I think I should get some sleep.


Sockets (I need to get more rails for my Torx and one 3/8th rail is in my tool box to go to the yards tomorrow)



misc tools and etc


this drawer was the misc drawer but now it holds my screw drivers, nut drivers, torx drivers, hex drivers, small pry bar, etc.



my drawer for extensions and ratchets. I can't believe I have 3 1/2", 4 3/8", and only one 1/4"....



wrench drawer. All of my wrenches and sockets are metric. The SAE stuff that came with my tool kit I bought 7 years ago at sears has been in a box since I bought it.



Shelf of chemicals, cleaning stuff, fluids, tools in cases, drop light, car stuff.



my new MAC drop light... Price of freeeee!


anyways, thats an impromptu show off of my box(not all of the drawers). But I do have more tools that need a home and I have been holding off on buying more because I have no where to put them.

Craftsman metric socket set here...


Got a brand new car so I don't really need it, though the EHA is acting up on my 300E

I have over 50 tool boxes of all sizes that I am selling in a swap meet at the end of January along with a very large number of USA made only tools and a seriously good super heavy-duty bullet-proof Fluke 8025B meter.

I also have 100 air tools but will not sell those until I test them all for quality.

Too bad you are so far away

Darn, I'd love a small cantilever box.
Have any pics or a list of what you have for boxes and tools?

My score for the day

Found this craftsman middle drawer on CL two days ago and emailed about it.



$50. Not bad I suppose, especially since the seller held it for me and had others emailing about it. For the normal person it would be fine but there is some surface rust from the FL humidity I'm going to take care of. It's friction slide. I mainly bought it to see if it will suffice for me. I may look into a taller top box or just save up for something else.




Then, after stopping by the shipping store I popped into the pawn shop next to it and spotted this in the case


$12 out the door. I asked her it I could look at it since I could not see the make of it laying down. As soon as I saw the SK it was sold. It's as big as my breaker bar(sad). So now I need a bigger breaker bar!

I think I did pretty good on the ratchet
