There's a half decent stainless steel roll cab and top box set down Costco btw.
the mac name isn't worth a toss at the end of the day, owned by stanley, now sell facom and britool and whatever other tat mac dealers can find from consolidated tool warehouses etc... to flog off cheap on the van to people the be able to provide no or little back up on the stuff they've sold.
to your average joe or average petrolhead, stereotypically a toolbox is a toolbox big square metal red thing in most cases.
i dont care if your using stuff at home, in work everyday, jsut for hobbies etc.....
you wouldent pay a good few garnd for a leather re-trim for a car then put it in a 50 quid lada would you? same thing with tools, why keep your investment of decent quality snap on tools in a poor quality box?
get something thats gonna stand the test of time!! properley designed, properley put together, go to a market leader!! not a company thats following and copying ideas of somebody who has OWNED the tool maket for 90 years!
the stuff speaks for itself, really does!
