My New War Wagon (Toolbox)

admin

I got sick of always going to the truck, or not having what I needed so I am making the soloution, a hold everything I need in one box toolbox.I got the big green box for $100 on Craigslist,Added the Craftsman top box for another $30.Made nice custom grinding wheel holders, next week some wrench hangers, and cord hooks. Kinda makes my old black toolbox look small.The other plus is I can drop the Green Monster on a job and it will be locked up tight. Mor pix as progress continues.

Reply:Those boxes are great.  I have a smaller Greenlee box with a regular flat lid that fits everything I need for the job I'm doing at the moment, so that's what's in the back of the truck for now.  The big body is off, for gas saving.   Those big boxes like you have there are all over the jobsite, used as mobile offices for the foremen.   You got a smokin deal on it for sure!  Just make sure you lock that sucker up with a big boat anchor chain to something very sturdy.   Last weekend one of the other companies on the job site got cleaned out, theives made off with all their boxes of tools.   I take mine home every nite.MM350P/Python/Q300MM175/Q300DialarcHFHTP MIG200PowCon300SMHypertherm380ThermalArc185Purox oaF350CrewCab4x4LoadNGo utilitybedBobcat250XMT304/Optima/SpoolmaticSuitcase12RC/Q300Suitcase8RC/Q400Passport/Q300Smith op
Reply:Good score!  I have one half the height of that one and I painted the outside black.  Those boxes are the best thing since sliced bread!

Reply:I guess my coffee habit isn't as bad, One cup in the morning, another mid morning.  Anything more, I drive people up the wall as I get super hyper and run a mile a minute.  But Great production rates btw.Lincoln 300 Vantage 2008300 Commander 1999SA250 1999SA200 1968Miller Syncrowave 200XMT350MPA/S-52E/xr-15Xtreme 12vs Millermatic 251 w/30A  Millermatic 251 Dialarc 250 Hypertherm 1250 GEKA & Bantom Ironwokers
Reply:Originally Posted by partagasGlad to know I am not alone.  I have a cup ( holds four cups from the pot) in the morning.  Then I bring a thermos which is another 12 cups ( full pot) and then a lunch I have a soda or two.  Then around 2 in the afternoon I have either a Redbull or a Monster  for the ride home.  And if I am lucky the better half has another pot waiting for me when I walk in the door.
