It now seems to be common to see wheeled tool chests in both pro and private garages usually with a further drawered tool box sitting on top.
Halford have inexpensive sets, their proffesional sets with ballbearing runners, did not look that strong to me and their industrial sets which to be honest did not feel that much heavier on inspection. I did get a Halfords tradecard off then that lowers prices on these items.
MachineMart have their Clarke Mechanic set which is their entry level and their HD set which from a WEB inspection appear to be a bit heavier but as yet I have not seen them in the flesh.
At the local garage today the mechanics all have large SNAPON cabinets at around £2,500.
I have loads of tools and would consider myself a heavy private user, not a proffessional user but having a two post lift as you can guess there are a lot of guest cars turning up and using the tools.
I want something that will last say 15 years and by that time I will let the motor trade take over the car maintenace.
Has anyone purchased this type of kit in the past few years.
