Snap-on Custom Tool Storage Skins

Snap-on Custom Tool Storage Skins Via their Facebook page, Snap-on recently discussed how one could skin and customize their Snap-on tool storage. While we understand and can appreciate the desire to customize and personalize a tool box, designs like this seem to be a bit too ostentatious.

Craftsman & Waterloo Ball Bearing Storage QC: 0 for 3

Craftsman & Waterloo Ball Bearing Storage QC: 0 for 3 I recently purchased three Craftsman ball bearing storage products recently, during a decent clearance sale. I’m fairly certain that Waterloo produced these items, but I may be mistaken. Purchased were: two 2-drawer ball bearing intermediate chests, and one 6-drawer Griplatch ball bearing chest. Thus far, I’m less than fully satisfied with all three units.
