Crack vs Cocaine From: Adam Moffett Sent: Monday, August 20, 2018 8:03 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [AFMUG] OT Nice tool boxes
I like harbor freight for consumables. Cutoff wheels, gloves, that kind of thing. Their "Hardy" brand vinyl dipped gloves were on sale for a dollar and I got 6 pairs. They're great until the vinyl wears off. I got a knockout punch for $30. Compare to Greenlee knockout punch for ~$200. I don't care if it doesn't last quite as long because I don't punch that many holes.

There are some of their products which are as good as if not better than the name brand products. They've also recently taken great pains to bring in good quality products. .... but.... lots of it is still cheap chinese crap. The hard part is knowing which is which.

They also are very highly regarded in the online forums, unlike much of the other stuff HF sells.

So looking for a nice used box. Snap On, MAC, Mattco etc. In Utah, we have KSL classifieds. Generally bargains can be found there. So I did some data entry. I also checked Ebay. I found that nice high quality tool boxes run from 2 cents to 12 cents per cubic inch. Ebay is higher than KSL. Matco was about at the top for price, Mac and Cornwall were in the middle, Pro Series (they claim to be a Snap On competitor) were at the bottom. Snap Ons were scattered through the whole spread sheet. I currently have 21 entries. Lowest cost is $990 Highest $8000 I did not include Husky or any of the bargain brands. -- AF mailing list [email protected] http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com -- Forrest Christian CEO, PacketFlux Technologies, Inc.
