Cars look better without badges 99% of the time. That's my personal opinion, you don't have to agree. I can do what I want with my cars, resale value be damned.

Ironically the post you accidentally replied to was ALSO me.

A lot of capacity and organization for the overall cart size, they wouldn't replace a big box but they'd be a good mobile option, especially for stuff like industrial maintenance or aviation where you need to roll the cart all over a large area. I'd personally consider one as a machinist box since they've got a lot of shallow drawers as well, and I could also see them being good hardware or small parts boxes.

Technically it kinda is. It's a 1 car garage under the house, the basement is on the other side of the wall.

>>29011158
That makes sense. Mine(>>29006367) is sorta like that too, the ground at the back of the house is about 10-12' higher than the front, which is why the rear half of the garage is cinder block instead of drywall. They went for higher ceilings and a more finished look on mine though, and there's no actual basement. (There's a second garage on the other side of the house though with the foyer in between them.)

I wouldnt say theyre playschool shit. I've used a lot of different brands including crap on, milwakee, propoint, mac tools, dewalt, gearwrench, starrett, mitutoyo, mastercraft etc. I've even used wrenches from Yugoslavia older than my dad.

Admittedly, ive only got a few of their products, and Wera has some really gimmicky shit out there, but every single one ive used are quality tools. The joker wrenches i have are some of my favorite ratcheting wrenches i've ever used.

I wouldnt ever pay full price for them, but if you can find a crackhead that stole them to buy them from for cheap, theyre great tools.

Ok if you find them at a pawn shop for less than the price of Husky, go for it and try the Made In Vietnam Fisher Price tools with an edgy social media compaign.

Meanwhile I got a few of their drivers and the grips are terrible, especially if you have man sized hands. I got the Tool-Chek for somebody and the quality of everything is basically Gearwrench tier for a higher price, and the retention for a bunch of the tools was fucked within a year of mild use. The compact smart packaging was the main selling point of those like $100 kits and it’s useless if the tools are constantly falling out.

Thanks. That reminds me I need to actually finish the AdMech thing, it's a clock dial and the other set I made is complete and hanging up in my college's metalworking building but I haven't gotten around to ordering a movement and hands to put this one together properly.

I just have a shed and it's time consuming running back and forth to the work area every time I need a new tool. So I've been min/maxing on a toolbox that can do like 90% of the jobs. Motorcycle, quick maintenance, etc.
