    I just bought a toolbox like this for $2 at an auction last week. I like that it fits under the backseat of my truck and holds all the tools that I had jammed in the door pockets.

      That’s a great deal, I think I paid around $5 for mine, but hey you can’t beat $2! and it will last forever!

    The lid looks like you've done very well at matching out all your angles and taking your dents out of it dude Very impressive

    Looks good. I grabbed a small Stevens Walden a bit ago I am working on. Had to hammer it quite a bit to get the caved in lid to sit right. Glad I am not the only one doing that. Molded cases are space hogs.

      I like the vintage look, I have one that I have been putting off working on!

    Great video. You are as bad as I am. I love build up sets in original metal boxes. I have an extensive set behind the seat on my truck. The rattle just reminds me of a quality box.

    I would buy the box also. I spray it with anti-rust primer and then use toolbox red spray paint.

      I almost repainted it, then changed my mind and left old school!

    DJ back in the day We used to use phone books cause phone books you could turn around and set them up to any angle you needed on and then turn around and impact real hard on your surface from the inside like you're doing and it would help a little lot Such as a flat bar Such as a flat bar Or the top of 1 of your anvils that you have That I've seen in That I've seen in other pictures My reason I would recommend that Is that where you could put the angles in at a longer draw Than what you're working on right now

    Still a lot of life left in that old box.

    When I saw the video pop up before I watched it, thought you may have a Craftsman carpenter toolbox, but it isn't. Never seen that design before. But looking at the socket holders, they're big so this was probably a 3/4 or 1 inch drive set. The logo is from the 1950s. I have a Craftsman carpenters toolbox from the 1950s, in excellent shape.

      I am looking for a carpenters toolbox now, but they are always damaged, I like the metal socket holders they hold a lot and not a waste of space like the molded cases!

      @@djstoolrestorations Mine is undamaged, paint is good, looks like it wasn't really used. Now I have to find the grey mechanics toolbox from this era. It'll go with my 1950s Craftsman vise and I can store my Craftsman = V = tools in it.
