Our Ltd edition im led to believe Waterloo

 

Not the best pic as i only had my phone with me but you get the gist



The KRA on the right is a bit tall, Shorty can`t even see into the top

 

Sell me the KRA centre section!

 

I only got it a month ago

Took me two years to find one in good nick to match the boxes....

 

Doh, i've been on the look out for ages too, i priced one up with snap on, Ł670 PLUS vat For 2 drawers !!!

 

mine getting it on ebay tonight as its not big enough any more

 

Few pic's of my box, Snap-On KRL

John

 

my new roll cab, started filling it last night, but its full already! just waiting for the top box to come on offer next month now

 

after looking through this thread i thought i would give mine a sort out.

 

The only pics I have of mine

 

love the box big ern

 

What number is yours? i have the same one, will get some photos in the next few days

 

number 63 i think, will have to check though

 

I've heard that size doesn't matter it's what you do with it that counts but looking at some of the kit here i feel rather inadequate

 

Thats mine, could do with a bigger one!!!!

 

I see you have a nice power craft compressor is it any good what do you use it for?

 

Here is a couple of pictures of my first tool chest made by sealey saved up for ages think it was Ł89 i got it in 1988 .It was red but one day i just mixed up alot of left over 2k that we had in the garage and we came up with this colour bluie/purply mix and i gave it a respray .The box is up for sale in the section for Ł40 .NEIL....

 

Jus getting started really but most important stuff for me is the stuff in the carry case.













And my favorite bit

New torque wrench

 

Is that torque wrench one thats been on special.

 

Yes, Ł120 something

And ball hex keys were Ł40

 

the red box above went back today as the lock started playing up after about 4 days, the Beta rep came out and looked at it on tuesday and told us to exchange it, so he ordered us a replacement and did us a good deal on the top box
Got this one in orange too, red just looks like its trying to be snapon.

 

Fuck me, that Beta rig looks pretty hardcore!!!

I only have a little box cos mine lives in my van, and I'm proper pissed today as I had to remove the lid and front "flap" from it as there's nowhere in the van to put it where the lid can open

It's one of these;



Hopefully I'll get a Transit soon and I hope to god it's better racked so I can fit it in!

 

Love the beta boxes

 

I like the beta boxes too, and that one you've got Thrush.

Next door to us uses all Beta stuff, seems pretty decent stuff to be honest!

 

I love my tool box! Yes it wasn't cheap, but fuck me, it's properly built to last! I'ts been on 4 vans, over nearly 7 years (and it's second hand, so it's probably 10 years old?) and thrown about everywhere over speed bumps, cornering, things falling on it, using it as a hammering bench when needed etc etc and it's survived with just a bit of paint fade and a couple small dents!

Gutted I've had to remove the lid and front flap from it to get it in this current van



But with it on I wouldn't be able to open it! I wanna put one of these under it now to fill the gap;

 

 

thats the bottom box i want!!!!

 

fraser how much was the bottom and top boxes combined from beta?

 

My humble little Snap On box - gutted I had to remove the lid and front flap, but I'd never have got it open again if I'd left it on

Had it for years, maybe 6?, and bought it second hand and it's still good as new save a few scratches and faded paint! Seriously best box I ever bought - the Clarke and Halfords boxes I've also had could not stand up to life on the road like this has! It's still straight and true, drawers all run smooth and no problems, other than the lock sticks (which isn't there now the front flap is off)

Few Snap On tools in there, most of it is Halfords Pro, Facom, and other mixed stuff; just can't warrent the money on Snap On stuff, and I rarely break a tool anyway. Swear by my Snap On ratchet screwdriver tho - could NOT live without that!!!! Worth it's weight in gold!

 

great thread this,,,I have a bit of a fetish for my snap on gear,,,,,,



















been building it all up over last 4 years

sorry about poor pics,,,,

 

I feel embarassed!!!

 

I need one of them pink tape measures!!

Hows business mate??

got some wheels for you to do here

andy- scoobyteknix-

 

Fella where did you get that ballend hook tool .

Cheers
Brad

 

Treated myself in the last few weeks

53" snap on roll cab



nice new mac tools tote bag

 

Like the tote bag was it expensive

 

Ł49 on special next week

 

Full price is Ł1353.60
Ł904.75 for the roll cab and Ł448.85 for the top box.
I didnt pay anything like that though, think i paid Ł550, Ł280 for the roll cab and Ł270 for the top box as i get on very well with my local beta dealers
there are some cracking deals on at the moment in their current promotions catalogue, but i dont think many places stock it.

 

That tote bag is very nice, i could do with getting a tool bag, the main problem with big toolboxes is if you want to do a job away from the workshop etc. when i just had a small box you could just chuck it in the back of the van.

 

Which one? I haven't got a ball end hook tool....?

 

the bruvs box,a long trek to mansfield to pick it up.
