 Posted: 21:02 - 03 May 2009 Post subject: Work tools an storage? |
 |
|
Age old question really of WHERE to buy not what, i'll use anything to fix a bike the tools do the same job as any other. I just need lockable storage as some of my tools have gone missing along with all my work gear while i've been off recovering from my severe bike crash.
Been looking on halfords and that and been thinking alot about it, i work in the bike industry so i dont need those big cabinets that are the size of a van.
Any input would be great, and examples? if possible, just want to get alot of feedback before buying.
Cheers guys.  ____________________ Haz ER-5, innit! |

Well they are all pretty much of a muchness just decide on how tarty you want it to look and how much cash you want to spend.
They range from the 'top of the range' (read expensive) Snap On ones, down to the cheaper versions like the Halfords branded items and the Clarke ones that you can buy from Machine Mart. There are loads of others out there but I don't think that they vary that much all in all.
Do a search, find the better deals and make your mind up. I have various different tools boxes, top boxes and roller cabinets and in particular I have a Halfords branded 3 drawer portable tool chest which has served me well for years and it does get some hammer. I dare say that if you were to acquire yourself a Halfords Trade Card then you will get a fair discount off one too.  ____________________ Yamaha YZF-R6 |

Only tend to buy Halfords Pro/Halfords Advance - Simple fact is that if it gets broken, it gets replaced free of charge.
The amount that gets damaged/broken would have costed a small fortune, this way it doesn't cost a penny

Weld one up and stick a lock on it. There are cheap cabinets in lidl once in a while, they're crap but you could copy it with heavier material. ____________________ Go back to bed - You have no rights - "Streetfighters ~ Mainstream motorcycling's crackwhore sister." |
