Used Tool Box For Sale Portable Tool Chest#

The swinging 'cupboard' doors were not very well liked. The flat top was a well liked feature, as a catch all for paint cans, lubricants, brake kleen etc. I have spoken with a couple of professional mechanics who own or have owned this box.

One mechanic said that there were way too many little compartments in the swinging cabinet doors, to lose small items in. The doors do swing all the way open, flush to the sides of the tool box. What I found is that most simply left them open, all of the time. These doors did not lend themselves to locking up your tool box at night.

However on these vintage boxes, the provision is for the older style two post car radio. The automotive radio is an interesting idea, that is still used, today. They said that they had no use for outlets, on the outside of the box, and tripping over the cumbersome extension cord. Both mechanics I talked to virtually never used the 110 outlets. In addition, there are locking compartments, inside the top right 'cubby area, and all of the lower drawers can be locked, separately.

Clearly this was an old design, as car radios, even the two post style, came with clocks in the digital age, mid 80's! My best guess is that this top of the line MAC tool box, would be great as a stand alone 'island' in your shop or garage. It even ran off of the converter, if you kept your box plugged in. There was actually a separate, digital clock mounted to the side of the radio.

I realized that these top boxes, or any MAC boxes of this vintage were nearly impossible to find. I would offer him cash from time to time, gradually upping my offers. I also kept after the original mechanic that I bought the bottom box from. I searched the internet, Craigslist and eBay for literally years.

You can store your leftover paint in the quality glass bottle, afterwards. Make sure to follow the paints instructions for thinning etc. Just pour your paint into the glass bottle, screw on the charge unit, and you are good to go.

The spray pattern was exceptional and very forgiving. Meaning, you can only go so low, if that makes sense. Also, the bottle can get in the way, especially if you are painting something that is on the ground. Obviously when it gets down towards the bottom, it won't draw if you are holding it on an angle. Couple of things I noticed when the bottle is full it draws very well.

I mounted an outlet strip inside the radio tray to accommodate the wall warts for the rechargable tools inthe door. I also replaced the original radio with a newer (at the time) cassette unit with digital display w/clock so i blocked off the opening that held the digital clock that was redundant and required battery changes. I also mounted the charging bases for my rechargeable ratchet and screwdriver. Myself, I mounted my socket rails into the trays on the left side and fabricated a rack into the right side door to hang my ratchets and extensions.

It's easy to forget they're there when you drop something and bend over to pick it up. Especially if you're not used to being around them. The first is the doors can get in the way. While I've been happy with the setup, I've always had two problems with this box.

Pushing it around can be interesting. It would benefit from spring type casters. The other problem is transportation of the loaded box.
