Toolbox It looks like the Pats have got it sewed up and I'm bored. So -- Got a good looking C4-related toolbox? If you show me yours, then I will show you mine (that is after I get out of work soon). I'll bet there are some real beauties out there!

Well, I don't have any C4 related stuff on it, but I pretend it's Admiral Blue. Still has the stickers covering the handles in this pic. Tools are all nice and shiny. The pics are from when I started school in Automotive Technology so I got a student discount (spent more on tools than tuition the first semester)

Half of my tools ary lying around on the floor of the garage or other places I was last using them. A bunch more are strewn over various shelves and cabinets, tossed into closets, etc. My new floor jack is sitting in the middle of the kitchen floor.

Oh wait, I do have some of my tools in cardboard boxes. Hold on I'll get pix.

I wouldn't. I bought a toolbox from Home Depot several years ago. Biggest piece of crap ever made. Cheaply put together. This time around I got a Craftsman upper and lower roll chest and I'm very happy with it. Of course, we'd all love a Snap-On set, but who can afford it? IMHO Craftsman has the best tools for the money and the best warranty.

I LOVE Home Depot, but dealing with them is frustrating because it seems they change their products every 6 months. I go in to buy something in plumbing and it's like "oh, sorry, we don't carry those anymore. Try this one." Of course, it doesn't fit quite right. Seems like the manufacturer who plays the best golf game gets to stock Home Depot's shelves.

They're just mats under the tires. I slid some cardboard into a white trash bag. Keeps the rubber from getting the salty snow off my wife's car. I know they probably don't do much, but they make me feel better.

The humidity here causes non chrome tools to rust but here is mine...

Keep the Ford blue oval comments to yourself... they made me a lot of money over the years.
