Evening everyone! As I'm now in my new job money is coming in, and since I wont have to spend money on expenses for 3 years yet, It's time to splash out and enjoy myself. So to the chase, I need a roller cab to house my ever expanding tool collection, and on ebay, there are some Hilka Pro and sealey ones, 7 draw, for £170, and the look of fairly reasonable quality, but I've never seen one up close. My dad has an "American Pro" roller cab, that's good quality, which was a bit cheaper, but the bottom has like a pull up draw, which is flimsy.

400455754702 is the one I'm looking at.

I can't afford snap on boxes, but want something reasonable, not shite.

Anyone had experience with these

any reccomendations to an affordable DIY roller cab?

Not bothered about the box on top, got 2 of them now.

thanks

 

This might be out of your price range but the halfords industrial cab is good!
It's on offer atm, buy that and the top chest for £350.

They do have others there as well which could be better suited?

Just see this one, its a web only deal but for £150, can't be bad, considering the cab is £200 itself!

Ye lets see what you have people, been looking at loads myself (but I'm just a window shopper) does anyone have one of these US pro tool chests that are on the bay?? How are they??

 

I've got a fairly big Snap On top and bottom box and I love it!

Could you not get yourself a good used Snap On box?

This is what I have:

 

I've a Clark roll cab cheap and cheerful done me for 13 years! Also have a cupboard type roll cab with two draws

Thinking of getting the large Clarke unit top and bottom, have you been happy with the quality?

 

Yeah it's been fine mate been in a busy workshop used every day rammed full of tools as well

 

Ive the big un at home and the smaller version at work.

just the job far cheaper than snap on. not there no good just too bloody overpriced

This looks a great deal.

 

i have halfords set got all 3 when they was on offer cost was 300
for them all as the roller cab had a chip on the bottom so got that even cheaper

 

grab the halfords industrial kit, much better than the lower spec ones, some of the clark range is good, the cheapest is crap though really. draws don't slide nicely at all on a cheap clarke one i have, same goes for the cheaper halfords ones.
the more expensive clarke ones are pretty good though, wouldn't put me off.

 

My Clark one has double skinned walls and roller bearing draws.
Two guys I work with just signed them selfs up for 3 grand tool boxes at 80 pounds a month! What a total waste in my book lol

 

This does look like a good setup, might keep an eye out and see if they put an offer on it again, looked a few days ago in Halfords and it was 500 all in.

 

The industrial range is listed online at £350 for top box and roller cab. Dirt cheap for what it is

 

I could buy another if not 2 cars for that

 

they got an offer on the roller cab and top box £250

I just collected the 2nd Halfords industrial one for someone in work yesterday.

We also have the cheaper red Halfords one but the industrial one is much better TBH.

Still on offer for £350 when bought together.

Or if you know someone with trade and only want top or bottom part its £179 for top and around £270 for the bottom. Tho for the extra £100 worth getting both.
