Should have a day at Santa pod for remote controlled jet powered tool boxes with big exhausts and side skirts lmao!

no major mods to mine, just repainted in gulf colours

My cab's modded with scratches, dents, knackered slide rails, and a big snapon sticker under the lid (even though the cabs a cheap jap one).

My carriable toolbox is coverred in Robot Wars stickers and pit passes with a healthy coating of mud over the top of it all.

/\ are you a stack on man?

my tool box in work has centeral locking on it

pain in the arse as the batteries need to be changed shit loads

Mine has a feature to stop me opening more than one draw at a time. I dont know what this feature is called.

Its handy because I'm lazy,and would definately tip it over otherwise.

I've got a red cantilever toolbox from Hellfrauds, just has stickers on it.Although thinking about it, its effing heavy because its got ALL my tools in it, so a skateboard bolted to the bottom wouldn't be a bad idea........ :lol:

my tool box is my german grandads old one, i refurbed it and need to spot weld the lid back on.

/\ are you a stack on man?

:lol: Could be a strap on for all I know. I can't actually remember what it is, but it cost £50 with a load of tools, is bloody heavy and does just as good a job as those silly-priced American things 8-)

Don't get me wrong, the factor isn't that I can't afford to be a tool snob, it's just that until their warranty covers getting lost, nicked or damaged by flagrant abuse, I don't want to be.

this is mine.should ahve never baught the bloody thing.

yes i did work for honda.

Lol, my first roller cab and box was 'stack on' I bought it for the entertainment value. Although 'strap-on' would have been better.

I'm afraid i am

.i paid 1500 quid for mine.:( what a mug.i couldent resist it was all beautiful and shiney.

Gotta hold out for the bargains man! never pay full price for anything!!!

I got my snap on 9 draw box this summer at a swap meet for £50, the looney wanted £60 but I beat him down :D Came with a key as well.

I bought the halfords industrial roller cab that they had on offer not so long back, But will be keeping my eyes peeled for a double width roller cab. To be honest I would rather have MAC or equivalent. I hate the scene points you score with snap on, look at this thread with everyone jizzing over it, Its just jewelry to most people. I dont care if its shiney or if it smells of poo, I want tools that work for their crust.

Did a bit of modding today and went from a top and mid chest to a roll cab

toolbox-1.jpg

Cost so far:

Top and mid box full of tools - £40 (car boot sale)

Bottom cabinet - £10 (YMCA Charity shop)

Dolly - £0 (behind Somerfields)

Lump of wood to mount it on - £0 (next door's skip)

Mini ratchet strap to hold it all together - £1 (pound shop)

Bit of rope to hold it all together - £0 (lying round unit)

Tell me how a grand's worth of snap on cabinet does the job any better?

Sounds like you all have an acute case of Extremis Moditis... :lol:

i use my tool box for work, its got spanners and the usual sparky items, nothing for a car in it really, my mate wired up a building wrong and we spent ages putting it right, so on his day of we decided to go to the local garden centre and bought some fish, red gravel, a neon, and a bridge for the fish to play with! it looked really nice! as u can guess his tool box was a modified fish bowl (does this count?)

no fish were harmed during this exercise, they were later released 3 days after into the wild life (a plumbers pond!) vee and dub are doing fine, vee is expecting, and squeek is adding a conversion to his bridge for his new valver which vee is growing intensley jelous about! They both had food during there brief stay in 'stanleys getaway haven'.

I used to think tools were boring when i was young and dad was browsing about B&Q etc, now i find myself getting hard over the new machine mart catalogue. Is that wrong?

No, but if it's the page with the bloke modelling the overalls, you may need to ask yourself some life questions :-p
