Parce que quand tu commences a avoir vraiment beaucoup d'outils et que tes tiroires sont vraiment lourd, c'est la que la difference ce fait!

Un coffre snap-on etc, tu peux t'assire dans le tirroire et les track glisse toujours bien. Been there done that :p

Well while the boxes are overpriced hardcore(dealers make about 40%) on them. The boxes are well constructed and wont fall apart when you load it up with 1500lbs of tools.

Now I am expecting the typical come back about CT boxes or Craftsman. I would agree with craftsmans back about 5-6 years ago but now it's a complete joke. When I bought my box I nego hard with my dealer!

The stuff from strictly toolboxes.com seems to be good quality for excellent prices.

The benefit of Snap On is ease of financing options. 25$ a week for 4 years at 7% open line of credit. It's not a horrible idea for most .
 
Yep, lister a 7 900 $ sur le site de snap on + 750 $ le top en stainless... bien sur j'ai pas payer ca par contre !

Did you get the stainless top for free? Thats what most dealers do plus an extra 10- 15% off. My dealer took 20% off because he already had it at his house. I also got a "credit" from snap on for 450$ that I could buy tools with.

As I mentioned the mark up on boxes is insane. There are dealers in the USA that ONLY sell tool storage. The same is starting here. The margins on hand tools etc isn't as great. I know some mechanics that change their box every 3-5 years. They trade in their old one and get a new one. I'm not too sure why but there was a story in GJ about a member getting a 12k box for 3k although his previous was only a few years old.

I don't like massive boxes that take up an entire wall and ones you can't move around.

Can't complain about my collection. It works

Vraiment puissant!
J'hésitais entre in IR2115timax ou bien le SO.
Mon dealer avait un bon prix.

Très satisfait.

Sinon quelqu'un a déjà essayé les clef flank drive plus? Est-ce que ca vaut vraiment l'extra versus les flank drive.

Snap On has decide to make the classic hard handles again for a limited time.. I had to buy the green handles and a set of orange to resell. The greens will go nice with my black set
