    Where dem dolla bills it at. My matco stuff has lasted forever but I will agree that they are a bit bulkier socket wise.

    Not saying they wont last. I have a few of their tools, but like said if you compare some of their impact sockets to snap-on you definitely notice a size difference. That difference in socket thickness has come in to play more than you would think.

    Is there a difference in terms of the actual tool box brands or are they all pretty much the same?

    If you aren't working on stuff for a living a husky/kobalt, craftsman, or even harbor freight box will be fine. The harbor freight boxes aren't half bad for the hobbyist.

    Did you forget that I worked on German cars for a living? Those fuckers cramed a 4 valve, 6.4 liter V8 in an engine compartment built to hold a damn 2.5 liter 4cyl. And THAT"S WHAT SHE SAID;)
    just depends on what you want it to do. You arent starting your own fab shop so as long as it rolls and has drawers who cares.:cool:

    You get the ratcheting wrenches that ratchet the open end as well? Picked those up on Christmas as well as a swivel 3/8 ratchet. Best 60 bucks ever spent.

    I disagree on a tool box is a tool box. I would never own a tool box that does not have ball bearing slides on the drawers.

    I picked up a used set of 2.0 14's for 150 bucks on the list. Not Beefy like the rads or my buddies 3.0 18's but they wil definitely get the job done being that the sammi is so light.

    Yeah it's gonna be a warm year, which means more riding time, which means I need to finish the bobber. I only need about another 2-3k to finish it. Just need to aquire the damn parts first to get going as my motor is mounted. Since my buddy acquired a tube bender I might redo my bottom chop so it is even stronger than it already is. I am definitely gonna pull another 1" out of the spine and conform it to the motor better so I can build a better air box and use my oil bag better to hide the wiring.

    Here are the two projects at the moment, Plan of attack is finish bobber. Ride her for a couple months sell and drop that into the sammi and pick up a better suited bike for the ol lady to jump on me with.

    Did you buy those with your money or his? And sounds like you needs to do some counseling, gots some daddy issues:(
    I will agree with that, for people such as us as we use ours alot. However, for someone like Jaime, he will be fine with a harbor freight. I will be inheriting a matco box the size of yours Jason when my ol'man decides to let go of it full to the brim with tools. Only reason I have yet to buy more tools or a box. Just picked the craftsman small box as it is perfect for the sammi.
