Hi All!

Strange request I know but you never know what people have hiding away.

I am looking for a nice tool cabinet with a few draws I can neatly hide all my spanners etc away in. Pref on wheels but doesn't matter too much.

PM me pictures and descriptions if you do.

Oh! and how much your after of course.

halfwits do a good deal on new

Snap on do some very nice ones, but the HD ones from machine mart are good value for money. don't buy cheap as the drawer runners cannot stand it.

Another vote for the Clarke HD cabinets, clarke cabinets are good aswel.

+2 on the clarke cabs, had mine about 13 years now, still going strong.
I did lay some anti slip matting in mine as well btw, makes a difference, except when you slam the drawers in anger

Have a close look at these, heavy guage material construction and exceedingly good value for money.

I've got a BriTool cabinet and it's pretty good, but I need a bigger one. Too many tools!

I have a 7 drawer roll cab, on which sits a 3 drawer add on the hosts a nine drawer cabinet. Add to that two 8 foot cupboards. I still ask why I have nowhere for my tools. and thus also have a cantilever toolbox I bought back in 1972 (But that contains grave items such as whitworth spanners)

Not a tool cab as such, but a cheap alternative would be a filing cab like this..

Come in all shapes and sizes, and can be bought second hand for cheap.
I think you would get a lot more storage space for your money compared to a dedicated tool cab.

Just wish I'd thought of buying some instead of the tool cabs I bought.

Got some of the large four draw filing cabs for my power tools and stuff, they cost me from £10 to £20 each.

Teng stuff is also good stuff, and not too expensive.
