New Craftsman Pro series (52" and 26") tool boxes - this thing is gigantic!

[meade916]

for years i have had two small tool boxes and a roll away cart that held all my tools. Everything i own including power tools. I obviously outgrew them a long time ago but i am a simple man. The roll away cart with all my sockets and regular tools is really what i love to use. I think i just got fed up one day and decided it was time to get more organized. I walked into sears and saw this gigantic 52” pro series box on sale and i knew right now is the time. The deal seemed so good i decided to get the matching 26" box next to it too. All for about $3,000.

sorry i didn't choose the (insert favorite brand) but like i said, i am a simple man. I don't need a $25,000+ box. I will buy me another CNC machine before ill do that. I got a LOT of box for 3k! everything i own is in it with lots of room to spare!

Those are some nice looking boxes.

Fuck paying for expensive ass snapon and matco toolboxes, I'd rather put my money into tools instead of an overpriced tool box.

i mean i totally get that those brands are much better quality. But my box just sits in the corner like my other ones did. The old ones are both almost 20 years old and are still in great shape.  So no complaints about this brand. I don't really like to use the word "expensive" or "overpriced" because those words are in the wallet of the beholder LOL.  I prefer to use the term "out of my league" or maybe just a simple, "i didn't want to pay that much for a box".  If i was a millionaire, and had "fuck-you money", of course i would have the best brands money could buy ?. But those brands are out of my league at this point.  And for me personally, i don't see the point.  I could get something a lot more useful and FUN than a tool box for that same 25-gerrr ?

I'm in the same boat..... I have a box the size of your new one I have outgrown. I have a bad habbit of buying my own tool instead of borrowing. Even if I only use it once. I also have a Smaller box for my electronics tools, o-scope, bench dmm, ESR meter,  powerr supply etc. As my wife says I have too much useful junk. Lol!

Good buy on the box! Enjoy it.

Its only overpriced when its outside of your budget or price range. Those of us who use tools and boxes everyday to make a living know that all to well. I only buy snapon/matco hand tools but i wont say fuck the lower priced stuff or try to shame those that do....

That being said very nice looking setup beige, im sure you will love it!
