The Best V8 Stories One Small Block at Time
I love my little Matco box. I'd love to replace all my Crapsman boxes with Matco, but for just a hobbyist, it's too much. But if I turned wrenches for a living, you betcha I'd have a tank of a box.
The Craftsman box there is only 18" deep. That becomes a serious problem when you start trying to pack your large prybars, breaker bars, and bigger torque wrenches in there. They have to sit at an angle in the drawer and make things weird.
His Matco box is 25" deep, but it also has super-wide drawers, so you can indeed hold all the funky tools.Craftsman for the home wrencher is fine, IMO. But if I were a full time tech, you bet I'd have a box built like a tank. Remember also, that techs leave their tools at work, and the box is their "safe". When you have $15k+ in your own tools sitting in your toolbox at work, you don't want it to be easily opened by someone else at night.
