    I'm sorting out my garage ;)

    I need to store my tools in a more organised way - at the moment they are all over the place. I used to have about 3 steel boxes and then put everything in a wall mounted storage system, but I can never locate what I need (partly because I put it too high up :-[ )
    Looking at something like this:

    Looks ok to me.
    Halfords Pro are also good.
    Second hand Snap-on good but can be pricey
     
  4. Its mattp in latebay parts , its £175 though but good one on rollers

  6. Just noticed its only the bottom one :(
     
  7. Go for it. No better way to keep things in their place. I've got top drawers (misses) and bottom cabinet on rollers.

    Halfords is fine, machine mart, sealy on ebay (companies sometimes sell off old stock), used snap on.

    Tool chest is a must-have, IMHO.
     
  8. Sealey etc are not great, Clarke pro is ok, Halfords better but if you have not owned snap on or mac you can't appreciate the difference.

    Depends on your use, I like snap on and mac tools and am rapidly running out if storage space hence my upgrade to bigger boxes

    As the old saying goes, buy right and buy once; buy cheap and regret at leisure
