Toolboxes - bashbarnard - 02-05-2017

So i have a few toolboxes now. Stack at work Small stack at home and ive just purchased a snap on trolly of which i said id never do but im running out of storage now. In the next few months im thinking about investing in a big box for the first time. Does anyone have any non snap on ideas? 42 inch or bigger preferably with some deep draws as a lot of the cheap models are quite thin. The trolly has an extra 3 draws and a chest bit so that should keep me going for a while but i keep finding the need for more tools

Thing is with a snap on box though is if you can get a 2nd hand 42" for around a grand then aslong as you look after it it'll always be worth about that. Pointless brand new but know loads of lads that haven't lost a penny on buyin snap on 2nd hand

True that, i made money last time i bought a snap-on box second-hand.

As said above really, buy 2nd hand snap on (usually the dealers have boxes they have taken back in part ex for a good deal) and you will have a quality box thats always worth what you have paid aslong as you look after it Smile
