Thanks man. It is really crazy..it has ball bearing drawers and has one big drawer that the tank goes in. It is built to the same quality that the tool boxes are. I need to buy some more cooking utinsils so my drawers are not so empty in the grill. I have one utinsil in every drawer to make it look like I have something. It also has a rotissery.

Here is a shot of my roll cab with the top locker that I have all of my manuals in. I went with a smaller locker so that I would still have some workspace. It has worked out really well. The 30" deep box is the bomb.

In the last 30 years of twisting hand tools I have never used a roller bearing drawer to loosin a single thing lol.

the craftsmen box holds them snap on tools just fine

I would rather put the extra cash in the part that saves my knuckles.....2c

after turning wrences for the past 13 years for a living my thoughts on tool choices has changed over the years at first it was all name brand and got to meet ( MANY ) new tool men. now i find myself always thinking how hard is it going to be to get the tool warrantied. tool trucks stop coming buy if you dont continuously buy from them. i have latly been buying the gearwrench ( kd ) brand and otc as gearwrench has expanded into other areas than just the original gearwrench ( wow how did i live without those awsome gearwrenches ) there quality and price are awsome and can be replaced at any napa, car quest, or bumper to bumper in days rather than weeks waiting on the next tool man to show up and order it in! just my 2 cents tho

For some people fine, but I would need 4 of crapsmans biggest boxes to hold my tools. Another plus with the box I have now top left big drawer is all sockets right under that all air & batt. tools then on the right bank I have 3 big drawers that are all pliers, then screwdrivers then wrenches. So for most of what I need no more bending over all the time. My last box I had to use more than one drawer for the same type tool and all those aside from the screwdrivers are so packed and heavy I wouldn't want a non roller drawer. I had the crapsman pro box at home and got it mid 90's, I got my krl 1000 work box in 91, it's now my home box because the crapsman was falling apart, now I can blame my kids for a lot of that but still they don't hold up near as well.
