What tool box are you working out of?

I'm working out of a 4 drawer cart. I've utilized the space so much that I probably have 5x the tools in it than you showed what you put in yours. I'm reduced to using a 4 drawer cart because my actual tool box was stolen.

I have a 5-drawer cart for common tools and a 46" masterforce toolbox for electrical, spares, more spares, big stuff not used as often, spares, spare allen parts, a whole drawer of hose jumpers for greasing to testing, gloves and weld wear. The 5-drawer is decent. Mine is PACKED and the bottom tends to be a point of failure if you're constantly moving it over a less than polished concrete floor. The top of mine also has ALL my sockets (including full sets of short and long and oversize Allen) and it starts to sag (so my 5-row socket holders are bolted down to keep them from sliding around). I keep most of my power tools in the bottom area along with plano boxes of small screws and nuts, and rags. Wish it had the side desk but there's no space on it for that. I do wish it had proper latches like my masterforce box where it locks both sides of the drawers. The lid latch is definitely needed for the full-width drawer or they'll pop open.

​@@larrydudgeon2846 I agree, very poor utilization. I should post photos of my box. It's loaded to bear. Surprisingly not that hard to push around 400# of tools on the unmodified flimsy bottom and legs and cheap wheels. Stiffening up the bottom and welding on (to keep the static wheels from shifting) better wheels and it's absolutely amazing.

Thanks for the time spent creating this video. The information is very much appreciated. I bought the 5 drawer cart in slate gray with optional shelf. Had plenty of room, but felt like I needed to buy more tools just because of the free space. 😂 Now it's almost full and I'm thinking about an add on. Yep, I caught the tool bug flu. I'm just a basement DIY guy that loves small projects, my cart is not for pro use. Anyway, thanks again! ❤

I have the 5 drawer cart. One tip for the assembly is to lay the drawer on its side on the packaging foam and slide the base on. Then block the wheels and tip it up. Did it as a 150 lb 14yo. Also I have the same breaker bar and it fits perfectly in the bottom drawer with the head folded

I started off with a tiny little set of drawers and a tool box so tiny that when I moved up to the five drawer cart I actually had several empty drawers. It was a pain to put together, but worth every penny. Was able to wheel it around anywhere I needed it. Made doing work on another stall a breeze. Recently moved up to the 42 instead of the 56 because the stall at work didn't have space for a 56. Now I've moved to a different stall with more space, but I don't have to trade out my 42. Like you said, and what I love about these, I can just buy more space. Some side cabinets or the 27 inch cab. Then if I get the 27 in cab I could even get a chest to sit on top of that. Meanwhile every few months at the shop we get a new guy who falls in love with a cab off of Matco or Snap On, and learns that those payments add up quickly. It's almost a tradition at this point watching the Matco/Snap On guy show up on a odd day to reclaim a box. I wound up selling my five drawer cart to one of those guys recently.

In southern Illinois about two months ago my local Home Depot had the 42" top & bottom for $498 and the 52" workbench for $398!!! So... I bought both! The metal is a gauge or so thinner than USG boxes. However, the drawers easily hold all my tools when only one layer deep and organized. With the 42" chest and 52" workbench there is plenty of space to grow. I prefer how the drawers move in and out on the Husky. They are really smooth, surprisingly little wobble, little droop when loaded and the soft close actually works great. I thought the thinner metal would bother me. After a couple months I have ZERO regrets. They have held up great. They both sit stationary and if mobile could be seen at a bit flimsy. I've pulled all the drawers out and it's actually built very nice on the inside. The only guy I have to impress is myself and I saved a lot even over Harbor Freight!!! I'm impressed Husky!

I work out of a 52” husky rolling cabinet and top chest in my primary garage. Your assessment is spot on. The US General boxes are heavier with thicker gauge metal but for the vast majority of DIY’ers the Husky boxes would be more than sufficient. 5 years later and I’m still happy with my Husky setup. I went with the new Series 3 boxes so eventually I can add on/customize my setup. Thanks for watching and commenting!

They're a gauge THINNER? I'm pretty sure the USG 4-drawer is already 18/20 gauge. Don't quote me, but I believe the 5-drawer is also mostly 18 except the exterior of the chest compartment is 16. No way you have a full 52" that's 20 or 22-gauge unless it's double walled. If you had to move a 52" box even close to full and it was that thin it would self-destruct. I just looked. Standard duty is indeed 20/22. Absolutely insane. A 52" box only rated for 1800# (and I'd never trust that). It's gotta be double walled. The heavy duty is 18/19, professional is 16. Rated for 3800# and 6000# I'd be very careful if you ever have to move it when loaded. My biggest complaint with most boxes is that they tend to use shitty slides. And then, they order custom slides from accuride or whoever so you can't just buy the next heavier model and not have floppy drawers. Usually not a huge issue to modify the drawer for the standard slides but annoying. Been awhile since I have investigated boxes but over 10 years ago, Westward's boxes came with all 100# standard slides (so 200-400# per drawer) and 16 gauge from top to bottom. And they were only about $1000 for a 54" box. The best part was they used standard slide models from whoever and if you really needed it, you could call up accuride, buy sets of 150# or 200# slides for about $40-50 at the time, and load your drawers with blocks of lead 🤣 I was really tempted but then HF came out with these 5-drawers and working at a foundry, I decided that would be less painful to replace if damaged and buy a large shop box later. Then Menards had 46" box+chest combos for $600 one after-Father's Day (it was significantly cheaper than the next two SMALLER sizes) and I couldn't pass up such a deal (and the gunmetal color is pretty 😘)

@ObservationofLimits 24 күн бұрын
Soft close is the tits. That is one thing I wish I could mod into my HF carts. I open and close drawers probably 30-100 times a day (depends on the drawer) and after years of being overloaded, dragged over rough concrete (no such luck to have smooth, polished floors), and a couple instances of a drawer missing both latches and sliding open only to whack something while being dragged behind me (often pushing 2 carts at once), the interia of about 500# of tools and carts has eventually made the bottom deep drawer a little floppy (works fine, just noticeably not closed straight mostly because it only latches on one side).

​@@tuckertech check your State laws. Many have consumer protection laws that allow you to claim the savings from an undisclosed sale within a certain period of time. Example: if I buy something and in the next month it goes on ANY sort of sale (including a discontinued item clearance), I can take my receipt in and claim that discount as a refund (although the law does allow them to only give you no-expiration store credit). But it has to be an undisclosed sale. I.e. if they send you a flyer two weeks ahead of time or have a flyer posted at the entrance, that counts as you having notice.

Very well done! Excellent comparison of carts and cabinets especially giving volume per dollar values. Really gave a good visual comparison by packing the same tools in each box and showing the amount of extra room in the next larger box. I was seriously considering purchasing the 56in cabinet, but after viewing your video I'm now thinking more about getting a 42inch and 27inch as you suggested. Makes a lot of sense for flexibility that you could bolt them together or leave apart for ease in moving around. Maybe Harbor Freight will take your suggestion about offering a top option in the future. I think I will be fitting a plywood top and coating it with truck bedliner for protection and easy cleanup. One of the better toolbox comparison videos by far!!!!!!

I agree as far as being patient when buying HF stuff and while I’m not as big a fan as I used to be they do have reasonably priced boxes. What I like most is there’s plenty of accessories and a ton of KZbin videos for mods. The key to assembly that a lot of people somehow overlook…remove the drawers to reduce the weight then put them back afterwards. Oh, and just so you know VGG dropped a video today also and I watched yours first. 😊

So I’ve had the 56x24 box since they were released and I love that people are finally making reviews on the series 3 lineup. Personally my issue with them are the drawers feel a little bit flimsy, but other than that it’s the perfect for entry level-mid level tech in a real world scenario since the 56 comes with the power drawer which is decently good to hold some batteries since my big 8.0 high output doesn’t really fit in the small drawer. And for someone just starting out I would say the 42 box or the 5 drawer cart is the best option to start out on. Great video man hope to see more out in the future

What vertical wrench storage do you have? I have some of the Toolbox Widget (gift) and I like them but would like more vertical wrench storage and a cheaper option. I've always wanted the 5 drawer cart, don't really have room in my garage to add one though. I do have the cheap service cart, I got it basically for free (gift cards) I have the 42" US General series 2 upper/lower toolbox in blue. I love the chrome trim with it and being a Ford guy, I had to have blue. I wish I had bought the next size up (56?) but that really would've been extreme overkill for my garage. I haven't quite completely filled the 42 yet but it's filled a lot faster than I would've ever guessed.

The wrench organizers I have are from Amazon. They aren't the nicest but they get the job done. Instead of using both rails to hold the wrenches, I split mine up and just use one rail to hold the wrench upright. They slide around a bit but for $10 I can't complain. www.amazon.com/dp/B0777KMSDD?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1

Just started out as an apprentice at a dealership and I built myself out a five drawer roll cart. My only complaint about it is I keep my battery chargers in the top of the box because that's the only spot to get the power to. Now the problem is you can't shut the top of the box with any batteries on the chargers aside from the 1.5ah Bauer battery and it's a bummer. I'd like to be able to move my cart over to the wall at the end of the day, plug my power strip into the wall to let everything charge and then lock it up. I understand maybe shutting it might not be a good idea due to no airflow and possibly overheating the charger or battery but Imean cmon... we don't really worry about that.

This is a great video that is packed with information. Subscribed! Several years ago I upgraded from my old and way too small Craftsman box to a Performax 40" wide and 24" deep combo box for the deep drawers. It's a great box with a built-in surge strip and even an LED light in the lid. The drawer slides are nice and smooth, too. Menards must have been clearing them out, because they changed manufacturers and based on my last visit to Menards, the new Performax boxes are junk. My current box is an awkward height and it's not compatible with most of the side cabinets I've seen (including Performax) and I'd have to cut some metal to modify it to fit a locker. The Masterforce boxes did seem nice, but will they change manufacturer's, too? I wish I'd gone with US General instead, because they are great at interchangeability, as you mentioned. Why didn't I? I pass 3 Menards, 2 Lowes and a Home Depot on my way to Harbor Freight...
@CodyBuilds

Thanks for sharing. My dad is a Menards guy so he has several iterations of Menards boxes, Masterforce and Montezuma I believe. It seems like Menards has gone through a number of different suppliers and redesigns on their boxes. I know the older Masterforce box my Dad has is the equivalent of a current Craftsman box. It's fine, but definitely on the lighter duty side. The Montezuma boxes are fantastic quality but no longer available at Menards. The current Masterforce box is much higher quality than previous iterations. The thing I like most about the US General line is the interchangeability of components AND it's a new line released within the last year so should have a decent shelf life moving forward. If you buy now there should be plenty of time moving forward to buy expansion pieces before the next line of boxes is released and these are retired.

I have to roll my cart all over the plant (corrugate plant). The lid lock is actually a godsend. I would delete it if the USG cart had proper double latches on the drawers rather than the dinky side latch. Only downside I would say to the USG is that the legs don't sit INSIDE the bottom tray but rather outside and the seams aren't welded on the bottom tray. I have probably 400# of tools in my 6-drawer cart and after a few years of dragging it around the bottom starts to fail. I have modified mine to stiffen it up, secure the edges, corners, and seams, and reinforced the legs. Ironically, it's been shitty forklift operators destroying my USG cart more than anything. I've gone through SIX since 2020 because operators drive blind.

I haven't owned a craftsman box for about 15 years so I don't have much experience with the newer boxes. However, what I've seen in the store from Craftsman was not very impressive. I thought they were very cheaply made boxes even compared to the Husky boxes at Home Depot. I will say that Craftsman has started putting out a premium line of boxes and tools, the V-series, that look to be of a much higher quality, but with that comes a higher price tag as well.

I haven’t personally owned one so I hesitate to give too much advice. They seem to be of high quality from what I’ve seen in the store. It has more storage than the 42” rolling cabinet at the same price so that’s a plus. I would say it’s a good option if you don’t have plans for expanding your storage in the future and you like the option of the open storage on top. My experience with the carts was that the lids were always open so I rarely ever used the top as a work space.

I appreciate you doing this great comparison video, I did notice few benefits to the 4 draw over the 5 drawer. The 4 drawer has big draws actually open flush with the front of the cabinet. Which can make the difference of getting that tool on the back out depending on your set up. Alot of high end carts have that feature.Also the 4 drawer had holes in the lower cross member where you can store all kinds of stuff like those screw driver that are too tall for the top; where the 5 drawer does not have that feature. Just some cool little features that Along with the increase in width to store larger tool with out cutting across drawers. I personally think make the 4 drawer superior to the 5 drawer. I've been living with the 5 drawer for 4 years now and I'm seriously think of switching to the 4 drawer. But thanks again for the video helps me make a educated decision.

The 4-drawer is worse in so many ways if you actually have to move the box often. And trust me, the first time a drawer slides open on you and hits something will be the last time because the drawer will never close right again.

Your 5-drawer has so much wasted space.

So does your head. The whole point of this video was kitting out the 4 drawer and moving up with same amount of tools to SHOW how much extra space you get moving up.

The video creator may be talking about USG boxes which is a popular topic. However, his multiple box at a time comparison and things like tool moving provide new insight. Seeing a HF fanboy gush over one singe box at a time makes comparing actual facts harder. Also, products change and get updated. It's always nice to have fresh videos on a topic. You are a tiny minority by the way. Go back and read ALL the other comments. People, like myself, are thankful for the video and are liking and subscribing.
