if you just want something cheap that will work for now, check out some of these boxes. they have friction slides, but offer tons of drawers at a cheap price.

i use a cheap ass setup from walmart.

it was 35 dollars with a 6 drawer sliding chest, and a 5 drawer chest that sits on it. ive loaded it with 500 pounds of **** before and its holding up fine.

works just fine for an average person and ive done some big projects with it. i dont really see the point of the 600+ dollar chests for the average person?

thankfully my house alarm is tied into my garage, even the windows. as soon as one is triggered it gets really loud in my yard and the cops will be there shortly (i'm 3 mins from a police station, i've had them there that quick after a false alarm) and if they make off with everyhting we have replacement cost insurance so everything will be replaced with new

i'm the same way too, i shopped around for the cheapest one i could find and they worked just fine for my motor swaps and my turbo build. tools on the other hand i am a little more picky on for certain things
