my toolbox finally comes tomorrow :-D. i ordered a MATCO 8525. its a double bay box, about 56" wide. ive been waiting for a month and a half for it to come in. the cool thing about MATCO is that everything is customisable. the color of the box, the color of the handles, the drawer configuration, the casters and the top. i got mine all black withblack handles, a black corian laminate top, and 1500lb capacity casters with a total capacity of 6,000lbs. i got tired of trying to cram everything into my Snap-On cart. whats scary is that ill probably be able to fill this box up completely. and need to order ad-ons.
before i get flamed, i work with my tools everyday. yes i couldve gotten a craftsman for about 1/6th the price of the MATCO, but the quality differential is massive. the equivalant box from craftsman was about $1100. so do some quick math and you know how much ive spent. i looked at Snap-On and MAC boxes, but the MATCO one was a lot cooler, plus the truck driver had the exact same one i wanted on his truck just in a different color. ill post up pics when i get a chance.
think about it this way. the amount ive spent on this box, i couldve built a forged stroker motor with ported heads and big cams. so you can see why im a little excited about finally getting it.
