If you are looking for a new tool box arrangement this looked like quite a good deal to me.

I got this 1, http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stor ... yId_165667

I know is a cheap and cheerful 1, but its got plenty of storage compartments, and build quality is very good in my opinion

great price at £49.99 but had to return 2 of them because of dents, finally got one without dents. brilliant starter box
and my brothers got the halfords top box and role cab for £250, great tool boxs

[SvMinor]

Yea great price I had to get my local store to order it for me because it was out of stock in every halfords over here,but worth the wait!
Up til now all I had was a cantilever toolbox.
The halfords 1 beats bending up and down,and atleast you can see were everything is too.

Well spotted, I was too excited looking at tool boxes

[bmcecosse]

Well - I see a Minor in one picture............... Never understood this business of fancy 'tool boxes' - I keep mine in a bag - in the car! Handy then if the car breaks down..........

[andrew.searston]

ah thats why i have a small tool box in the car a my big one in the shed.
and a big fancy tool box does look good in a garage
theirs a few pics of a green moggy van in the halfords cat

If I had the space & deep enough pockets I would have one of these big drawer & chest tool houses as it would be neat to be able to have everything in order where I can find it. As it is I use a good old cantilever box which I can open and pretty much see everything and pick out what I need. When travelling around I use a small plastic box with only a few tools as I always worry some opportunist thief will steal my car and blag all my tools (none of which are expensive but to replace would cost a fair bit).

Bye the way the cantilever box is also good (not as good a a bag, I will admit) when at the scrappies you can (empty out some tools first) fill the bottom with those elusive screws, clips, bits & bobs that you never really need but is good to have and the scrappy only charges for what you have in your hand. Not that I have done this but someone told me

wee update on mine picked it up today the guy from halfords phoned at 9am
to say it was ready to pick up , went over around 11 to pick it up
took 20mins to get served and then because i hadn't taken the invoice (one off the e mail sent confirming the order )
took the guy a further 5 mins to retrieve the info needed to book it out all in all i was almost 30 mins in the shop
modern technology let down by lack of staff on a saturday .......
