im sorry but, i cant bring myself in to debt over a tool box. i dont need a 5k tool box, im happy with my craftsman box!

It is time to upgrade tho, need something bigger!!!

Fuckin matco box is more than i bought my damn truck for!!



If it was my money goin to a tool box, I would go to sears and get a craftsman ball bearing one....those are nice!

yea i agree im not aprofessional mechanic dont need some fancy smancy shit like that

i used to say the same thing. and one of those boxes will work good, my dad has a husky from homedepot and its worked just as good as my snap on, but hey when u only pay the man 25 bux a week and not all at one time then to me its worth it.

i have the matco pro. double bay and i love it

I have a matco pro-formance series triple bay box in my shop at the house. I have a smaller Cornwell box for work.

Had a MAC sold it to a friend and got a Snap-on.

i have 2 craftsmans & a snap-on (only cause it was used & my driver damn near gave it away to me) & i'd say they're about the same as long as it's the craftsman professional series with the drawer locks & ball bearings. at work we use matco boxes & there's really no difference except the price.

THE MAIN THING TO REMEMBER IS THAT THE BOX WILL NEVER MAKE YOU MONEY, IT'S THE TOOLS INSIDE THAT DO!!!!!

with that said, i'd suggest go cheaper so you'll have more money for tools!!

good luck...

righteous... i got the one from lowes... kobalt. its nice...... whenever i start to try and make money by using my tools... then maybe ill sell this one but for the small jobs i do for myself this is good. thanks alot guys.
