    I just need a solution for tool storage. Nothing massive like a proper master tech would have, just something with wheels and some drawers. I have a decent tool set and would probably stick with a smaller/medium size box w wheels.

    The 30" five drawers will be on sale for $200 the first week of June. Those are solid. Otherwise they have plenty of sizes to pick from that are all basically the same quality just different layouts, pick what'll work for you and wait for it to go on sale :thumbsup: I'd avoid the yukon and stick with us general, but that's just me.

    I have one too. Made refinishing my popcorn ceilings so much easier, plus I did a few walls.
    I don't think I'll ever go back to hand sanding, it's way too messy.

    If you can wait a bit, there will likely be Father's Day sales coming up at multiple retailers.

    I have that box you posted & the matching top chest. Bought em at 2 different times, waiting for a sale. The drawers are nicely deep compared to other boxes in that price range.

    Good to know. Wife is offering to buy me a box to get my stuff out of 5 gallon buckets. Hate to spend the $$$ right now but fathers day will be good to do it. Or Christmas - have entire family go in on one for me.

    After passing up the last sale, I jumped on the Hercules buy a battery and get a tool deal.
    Did I need it, not really but it will make maintenance on the tractor and mower easier.

    Picked up a US general toolbox.

    It was too small, doesn't hold all my tools.

    Returned, got the bigger one

    Some good sales this weekend, anyone getting a icon tool?

    i picked up the bauer version when it was buy battery and charger deal and get tool free. Id pay full price though. Worth every penny to not deal with the hassle of a manual one.

    Got this bag for my electrical stuff. I got tired of carrying around everything loosely piled in a plastic bin. Works well, feels solid and well made.

    I've done small jobs for him and really wanted to repay me after I kept refusing any cash from him (and told him I was doing it as a friend)

    Positive experiences on either of the Bauer electric pressure washers?

    Or should I opt for something like a Ryobi from Home Depot for $200-250?

    Main reason is for just hitting the dirt and build-up off the side of the house and cleaning up the driveway from oil spills (with use of detergents of course).

    I have the Ryobi one from HD and love it for small jobs like my truck and stuck one stuff. I have a 3000 psi gas one I use for heavier jobs though. Depends on what you plan on using it for.
