Tool boxes - which one?
After breaking my cheap tool box, I thought it was time to consolidate my various toolboxes into one unit.

It needs to be small enough to transport around for the DD milarkey, but large enough to hold a decent amount of tools ( 3 toolboxes worth ).

Any suggestions or better still - recommendations?

I know Snapon - but mucho expenso!!! Others?

Ta
Tim

Clarke from Machine Mart. Don't bother with the cheapest ones, you want the HD plus range, they use ball bearings on the drawer slides, they're much better quality and not much more expensive.
