Toolboxes

[Upstate]

Been watching Craigslist for the last year I am at the point I have to buy a new box. I have tools everywhere. I really need a 72" box and because I have wall cabinets lining the walls of my garage I can't use a top box.

The toolbox will be stationary because I have a couple good carts. Anyone familiar with Montezuma boxes? The local Harbor Freight has the 72" box, but I like the drawer layout of the Montezuma better.

I would love to buy a Snap On or Matco but my budget with $13k in medical bills and still adding up doesn't permit a $3k used box.

There are some other companies that are on par with the Harbor Freight quality and cost a little bit more. Perhaps they've got some different drawer layouts. I've had Hfreight boxes for years and they're in great shape and packed with **** so don't shy away from them if your concerned about quality.

I just recently bought a Montezuma box (It's actually a relabeled box with the Tool Vault name from http://www.strictlytoolboxes.com/to...ol-vault-elite-72-17-drawer-tool-cabinet.html ) The quality so far is excellent and I would buy another when needed. If you scroll down to the reviews, my review is the third one down.

That is what I am looking at but by a local dealer that is a little less money.

End up buying a 72" Montezuma

Nice box, I see you ended up with the 15 drawer box though. I find that having more of the shallower drawers is best but your needs might be different than mine.

I agree, but I paid $1399 for it, because of that I could deal with set up. I went back and forth on which one to get but in the end my motorcycle, K5 and handguns won over the more expensive box.

How did you pull that off?

I would have done the same thing i'm sure as you can order new drawers and replace a deep for two shallow instead.

Local store called Runnings sells them for that.
