#1: New Tool Box. Author: Dimitri,

Been a road tech for a while now. So the big metal automotive boxes had to go.

First picked up the top two, but recently picked up the matching cart and the parts organizer on the bottom.

The drawers in the 2nd from the top, held up well so far using it for the last year, eventhough it's plastic with no slides etc. I have been quite pleased.

But now that I added the parts rack yesterday and filled it with my most common small parts, let's see how easy it is to take this thing out of my van. Laughing

That looks like a great setup 'Mitri. Be interesting to see how the plastic units hold up to the wear and tear.

Out of idle curiosity, what does a "road tech" actually do mate? What industry does the role belong to mate? I'm sorta thinking it's a bit like a automotive mechanic's role.

Is the advantage of that job sector that the forklifts breakdown more often?

I actually took a pay cut to switch fields.

Felt like it was time for something new, and enjoying it rather well surprisingly enough.

Cool chests, D. No dents, or rust, take a beat down too. Nice!
