It's mostly chaos in there, but with just enough order so I don't have to dump the whole contents to find something. I've got several other toolboxes. This one seemed most visually intriguing.
My latest Craig's list find. Just needed something for the basement to keep everything organized. Paid 60$ did i get hosed? It's got ball bearing slides and was made in the USA. meh
The top two pulls in the state I recieved them. The bottom three in the process of being cleaned up.
We finally raffled off this toolbox. It had been on Adam's truck for awhile! The winner only bought ONE ticket so that was pretty neat!
my actual real toolbox...not the cool retro craftsman that I like to stare at and take pictures of. No that ones too small for all of my essentials...that one holds only my dremel supplies...
This one...this is my lil'baby! Combine this with my ratchet set and paint bucket toolbox and I realize that I'm a total dyke. Ha! But I can do just about anything.
A MAC tool chest with hutch, and a Cornwell side cabinet. Mounted on a custom fabricated steel angle and channel frame.
An automotive AM/FM/CD unit with bookshelf speakers was added in the hutch, powered by a small sealed 12 volt batter. A battery maintainer is connected, and plugged into a power strip, and a retractable power cord mounted on the back of the hutch. Roll into a service bay, plug in, and get to it.
The casters in this photo have been replaced with a set that have coil spring suspension. That makes the box ride over the expansion joints in the floor quite smoothly.

An easy Chalkboard Toolbox DIY.. More on my site: www.thriftcore.com/2012/01/chalkboard-toolbox-diy-for-you...
The drawers have been rebuilt and refinished and new green felt liners were installed.
Every drawer is different and the drawer guides are made to match. It can only be assembled with the drawers in a certain position. I laid out the drawer positions with ,050 thousands clearance (less than 1/16 per side) on each drawer.
. The old screw holes for the pulls were filled and finished.
.Some drawer pulls-knobs were missing, and none of the remaining pulls matched. New pulls-knobs were purchased and installed Pulls are of brass w/ an 8/32 screw from behind.
1/8" Red Oak ply has been added to the top of a box made of scrap plywood. The drawer guides are made from clear pine that I cut out of new door frame molding.
The top trim is Oak molding and the bottom trim was cut from Oak Lattice.
The sides are made from pine. Dark Oak Stain and Maple Stain have been used in different area because of the different absorption rates of Oak and Pine.
Carpenters glue, brass screws and finishing nails were used in the box's assembly.
Finish is three coats of Semi-Gloss Varnish, sanded in between coats w/ 220 grit paper,
Final finish is a light rub of 0000# steel wool and a final coat of wiping varnish applied. ( regular varnish thinned 50% w/ spirits )
