Good thing I but the 3m cleaner wax and wax and everything else from my uncle. Checked out prices if I ordered it on line and that stuff was a fortune. Between me getting the car care goods from him and my Mom shipping it to me through Fed EX (where she works) It is pretty damn cheap concedering. Plus I get everything by the gallon from him as far as waxes and such.

Just in case you guys were wondering, a 5'2 120 lb person DOES fit in the bottom drawer of a Matco toolbox

Almost

Gotta replace the piston and sleeve. The old one is in such a good shape that there's a flatspot on the exaust port side of the piston. Ain't good a'tall. Got the radio out and the steering wheel was broken, currently epoxying it back together. One of my air filter elements (foam) has disintegrated, the other was dirty so I cleaned it with gas, it immediately expanded to about 3x its normal size and ripped in the middle. The pre-filter should hold it together enough for me to get the piston and sleeve broke-in (if i cant get the new filter soon enough). It has sat so long that the receiver 6v battery pack has gone kaput, wont hold any charge at all. I have a 4.8v pack that I can use temporarily, but it won't last long running 2 servos with regular batteries. Oh well, such is life.

haha nah, theres this entry level tech, he's really little and the kids a real piece of work. Another new guy just bought a brand new matco box and its pretty damn big. I was like Dave I bet you can fit in his bottom drawer. Son of a bitch, kid fit right in there.

Was TSS in town?

this kid is probably his height, and a good 20-40lbs lighter. I lifted him up over my head with one arm by his chin, thats how light he is. Hes really funny, talks a mile a minute and basically the class clown. Oddly enough though he has the potential to be a pretty good tech lol

[310stanger]

I was more surprised a matco box had a drawer strong enough to hold him lmao

Who makes matco boxes anyway? I know snap on makes their own, or at least did. Crapsman is made by waterloo. but Mac and Matco I have no clue.

The Mac box that one of the techs had back at the dealer in Va I worked at he stored shine in the bottom when he had it lol

Laugh it up, I am going to kidnap you buy a toolbox locker and only let you out to help me OH and to witness the beatings of the assholes in the shop.

snappy makes their own, mac makes their own in Ohio, Matco makes their own in upstate NY.

I prefer MAC. I love the quality, fit and finish etc I have a tech 1000 in black.


The matco's look like nice and come in great colors, but the inner construction IE the quality of the welds, the strength of the drawer slides etc are not good enough for the money. My mid level MAC drawers handle 250 lbs on the big drawers, matco's highest end boxes stop at 232.

Mac actually paints their boxes like you would paint a car. The paint takes a beating and still looks new, at least on mine it does. A lil wet rag with a lil soap and it looks brand new.
