Wranglerstar, “Drawers are where tools go to die.” Also wranglerstar, “look at my new tool drawers wouldn’t it be nice if I had 6 feet of them.”
Yeah, definitely some confusion on that one...
dude, all professional men are allowed to back up on previous claims on whichever field when the need for cool stuff outweighs the previous claim, it's usually a splitsecond decision which may or may not be thought through, but professional men stand by their dumb choice because COOL STUFF
I was thinking the same thing, but understand that Wranglerstar just took a deep dive on tools. He probably learned a few things himself.
But you cant bring your tool wall to your car. Smart addition, I think.
you seem to forget he is just another man like you and me
For 7 grand, a toolbox better come with an old 3/4 ton ford pickup bolted under it to haul it around.
That's the funniest thing I've heard all day!
Ford's need a big tool box bolted to em anyway. It's a winfall situation.
Ha ha, agree😂
@@1980Baldeagle right, right
What do you mean 7k ??? Its only 20 a week lol
Detailing a tool cart? Definitely a west coast thing. 😁
Is this a tool cart or a shrine?
I'm a west coast guy. I may have detailed my riding mower...more than once, lol.
It’s like buying an expensive car with leather seats and leaving the plastic bags on them. What’s the point. ?
Leave me out of the West Coast slam. This is for YT content to make money. Guys that stay up all night wondering, "what am I going to talk about?"
The Harbor Freight tool cabinets work just fine for me. Snap-On is too boujie for me.
Yeah, my US General rolling cabinet from Harbor Freight has served me well for many years. I'm in & out of that thing almost daily & I've had zero issues with it.
I have a 50 year old bottom box. And a new top box when I bought it 28 years ago. Both are from sears yuk yuk.
They are fine now I have $6.8550.65
For retirement.
I used to think "wow this guy is over the top" but now years later I can appreciate the fact that indeed Cody is definitely over the top.....
I'd have a hard time paying more for a toolbox than I did for my last running/driving truck.
dude, its insane, Europe we get boxes like this with all the tools for 500Euros, are Americans nuts or something? or are they on drugs?
@@V1LKA5LT lol yea we are
I paid under 300 for the Harbor frieghts version. I Love it! Comes in many colors. Save the money and buy the tools.
I’ve got the same HF one. I’ve never understood why people buy these snap on boxes. The name I guess.
@@GiviFaaip bragging
@@GiviFaaip I’ve got a 20 year old snap on top box sitting on a US General bottom right now. Nothing wrong with the US General but there is a noticeable difference in the paint quality and how smooth the drawers slide. Also that snap on box was made in Iowa not China.
The US General boxes are the best value for the money!
Wranglerstar 1 month ago: I only have this old Milwaukee.
Wranglerstar today: Bottom will be all power tools. Bunch of Milwaukee.
I have a few Milwaukee M-12 tools, and for my purposes, they are great. The M-12 Hackzall is pretty awesome.
Builds $1000 tool kit. Puts it in $7000 tool box. 😂🤔
Just because you paid less than the sticker price doesn’t necessarily mean you got a “deal”.
Couldn’t watch all the way through. I really choked on this. How does Mrs W put up with it.
He earns his money. Not saying a bad thing about either of them but Cody earns their money and she supports this. She has the academic chops to name her own salary in a very lucrative line of work but in a traditional house he is the man and she is the wife. I once asked her in person about her giving up her professional life and she didn't bat an eye when she said that their traditional marriage kids and home life etc. were of greater significance and more importance to her than her professional career.
Cody you should make a butcher block top for that Snap-on tool box !!
My thought exactly. I came here to comment this as well lol. It'll save the top of the box also.
some nice hardwood top was first thing i was thinking when he said workstation.
Came here to say this!
I actually did an oak butcher block on my Matco box. Freaking love it.
Butcher block would look nice, but I’d personally put a Delrin top on it. You can get it in a variety of colors, and would be durable for outside with very little maintenance.
This is the definition of disposable income. No hate just being honest. I've got 5 kids and in this economy I can't fathom spending anywhere near 1k even to store tools when I can do the same thing for a hundred bucks.
You have child wealth! You are blessed!
Yeah tired of watching people brag about their expensive toys
@salvagemonster3612 so don't watch
I have never seen anybody wash a toolbox before.... I guess when you're a professional homeowner you have time for stuff like that.
Well i bought two used toolboxes that had been pretty used. So cleaning and serviceing tham before I start using them was a great and worth the save of 5time the money it would have cost new.
The quality of the HF toolboxes have really impressed me lately. No Snap-On boxes for me. The prices are worlds apart, the quality is very close.
Watch out for later iterations, they'll more then likely either increase prices on later versions or cheapen products after a good name is established. I will say instore stage models seem to be really Scookam.
Yea where I lived the HF boxes are cheaper the only used snap off boxes that are cheaper are worn out
When do we get back to modern homesteading
Those days are over, new house, land, trucks, toys, tools and hired help..no need.
As a person gets older, he or she realizes that if you buy quality and take care of it, it will last you a lifetime or at least most of a lifetime. My father always told me since I could remember, “Buy the best quality item you can afford and take extreme care of it”. I’m almost 40 now and even though I’m not old, I laugh too myself when I hear my buddies saying they just paid this much for a new that or a new this when I have had the same quality item for 20 years and have saved countless dollars. Routine maintenance doesn’t pay until you have owned the item for 5-10 plus years. Wisdom always comes with age.
Always lock the box when you move it. The plastic latches will not hold a loaded drawers closed.
Just my experience, but I haven't had this ever happen to me.
One toy begets another begets another, then you have to have the tools to fix the toys, then the tool box to fit the tools, then another shop to store all the toys and the tools and the tool boxes…. It doesn’t end until your entire day is spent just managing your stuff
This is crazy accurate.
Its Biblical.... Not speaking about or for Anyone Here but Jesus spoke of the very real trap that the world is in Luke when this feller decides to build bigger barns. That is good sound thinking to most people but the danger of building bigger barns is that you can get so wrapped up in it that you either forget God or to consult God or to consider why He gave Us such an abundance that We could think We need a bigger barn.
Cody once again proves ... if a man has enough money, he can impress the world.
$7000 for that small tool box you can get a huge husky 10 times as big!!!
I have several for less than 1/5th of that. I just don't understand it.
@@051biohaz Too much money makes people kinda stupid sometimes on how they will throw away money. $7000 is just stupid!! $1700 I guess is forgivable 😆
Crazy price and even after paying he wants to change everything, wheels color lock and the draws fly open if you move it when it’s not locked. Madness.
I'm working on setting up at a new house and my strategy is changed a little.
Workstation in the basement with all of my gun tools and accessories.
Tech cart in the garage with automotive, mower, and tractor tools.
5 gallon buckets with bucket buddies specialized for different jobs. General, electrical, plumbing, etc.
Shelves with clear totes to hold different consumables that I can load into the buckets when I have a specific project.
I even have a box in my office to hold all my tech gear and tools.
So far I love it
Keep your eyes open at the various big box stores - I found a very nice Craftsman toolbox for $150 that had been marked down from $500. Not a scratch on it, soft closing ball bearing drawers too. Not much smaller (if at all) than this Snapon. Would rather spend the extra money on concrete or a pool!
No chance I could justify even 1/7 of that price. I'm gung-ho for made in America products, but not to the point of overpaying several times over.
Customer of mine works in high pressure vacuum systems. Because they own the patent to a particular part integral to the process, they can charge insane prices and justify it by saying it's Made in the USA.
I'll be our products whenever I can justify needing them, but I won't get ripped off for the sake of it.
Quality is paramount.
@@philup6274 quality ends at $1500. $7000 is highway robbery. Snap-On is a scam.
@@philup6274 I bought a craftsman roll around tool box 25 years ago Both top and bottom for under $400. I is still as good as new.. There is quality, then there is getting ripped off.
I never understood why car mechanics pay the high prices for these boxes. Toolboxes make you ZERO money. Put your money into the tools that make you money. Snap on boxes are just like jewelry, used to show off with.
Meh, more like the jewelry box, but anyway.....
My snap on guy had a repo. Guy bought a $10000 box and had 4 tools in it. Our supervisor got it for like 5600. Guy paid half the price to get it taken away!
I totally agree with you ! I worked in a shop many years using a craftsman box ,a socket set from Walmart, some tools from harbor freight and, a few snap off I mean snap on.
The tools make you money the box just stores them while you are away. I wont work at a shop that I have to worry about my tools if I am away but I am out of that field so just my 2 cents
Toolboxes do make you money 💵 time=money and a nice organized toolbox saves you time in the long run of looking around or rummaging through a bunch of tools to find the one you need .
I’ll stick with General from Harbor Freight. They’re good boxes an I’m not a NASCAR mechanic. Lol!
Time for a change. More like talking about an over priced tool box for 20 minutes.
I understand SnapOn quality but I'm always astounded by the prices.
If I sell you a ice cream bar for $10 and tell you it cost $100 from the ice cream truck I don't think that means you got a great deal on a $1 ice cream IMO 😜. But at least you aren't making weekly payments on it for the next 20 years !
Toolbox’s are meant for work and to be used.
If you polish and worry about touch up paint on your box, then you probably don’t need a toolbox/cart.
Wipe it down once a year, (maybe). Use it and abuse it, that’s what they’re meant for.
I'm on a Craftsman budget. I have two craftsman lowers & 2 uppers. One is from the 90s when Sears was still alive. The other is from Lowes bought on clearance. I don't have any complaints for what they costs. Both my upper & lowers cost less than half of your Snap-On lower cabinet & they were made in the USA.
$6500 for that? That's highway robbery, man. I don't care what name is on it. Then again, I'm still thinking in 2019 dollars.
When you buy a used snap-on box you should always check the numbers with snap-on to be sure there's not a lien against it.
Can snapon repo from the secondary-purchaser if so?
@@Joeywh053aw350m3Lee no
@@Joeywh053aw350m3Lee I think they can , lots of videos about this happening.
Someone will run those numbers
The fact that there's liens on toolboxes is just nuts
@@Joeywh053aw350m3Lee yes, they can and will if they find it or know where it is. you can easily spend as much on a box as a brand new car, and theyll get their money.
Snap on's prices are a laughing joke 🤣 What you paid I can see doing it although I still wouldn't
Speaking only of wheels, for me having two wheels turn and two wheels fixed is ideal vs. all four turning. Steering a box like that the thing is like a crazy car with no steering at all. Yeah you can push it all directions, but you cannot push it straight when you absolutely need to.
I thought tool chests are where tools go to die?
Wranglerstar - I just bought a 7k tool box. I think I need another.
My professional home owner tool caddy was my wife’s grandfather’s craftsman 5 drawer with bottom flip up door for storage tool box .
We saved it from the old milking barn where it had been sitting for years and years … once we got it out and opened it was full of 12g reloaded ammo and some very old tools… it now sits in my garage and is an awesome box… oh and some years wend by and we found the key set for it with grandpas key chain… that’s cool to have with it too.
Hey Cody love watching all your videos!!! As a teenager growing up leering how to do these things is absolutely amazing. God bless brother
For 7 grand you should not be able to complain about anything. For that price it’s waaay overpriced I think.
For years you’ve been saying tool boxes are where tools go to die.
- this is a whole stack of boxes, not just one, (WS argues a "set of Drawers" isn't a box, ha ha...) - yes we all call these toolboxes in the workshop.
With the Love and attention to Paint quality demonstrated here, every slot in "this here box" should be well labelled and Identified. lol... (jk)
A box is a dump in spot.
Drawers are organized for ease of use.
This is going to be a "one spot organized toolbox" that he is in most days and tools that he uses often. This is the "exception to the rule" if you will...
Know what I paid for my Craftsman... $300 and I didn't even need someone else to pay for it with ad revenue, donations, or tax write offs. Pretty cool huh?
Those ball bearing draw sliders are great though. I never knew about them until I wanted to build a custom kitchen unit. Amazingly strong
They are great and as you now know they are less than $10 a pair. Times that by how many draws in a steel box. Hardly 7 grands worth.
I gotta love me some Harbor Freight tool boxes. They are the best in the entire world!
The Snap on might be better (I have a Snap on "Spirit of 76" edition top box), I also have 4 or 5 HF bottom boxes, one with a metal lathe mounted on it. The Snap on is a bit heavier, but NOT 12 OR 16 TIMES BETTER!
The best at falling apart
I like to use the 2-bucket method. (1) bucket with the clean soap and water (1) bucket of just water to rinse off the dirty wash mitt
I'm sure those 220 pounds drawers will never see 20. Waste of money even at this "deal". We're just talking about drawers to set your tools. A real homesteader would pick something up for 50 bucks and it'll work just fine for his whole life. Snap on is a great way to make some guys feel cool. just a flex. Not impressed. My grandpa is worth 30 million and would never pay that much for a tool box. You should pride yourself on how old your tools are, not how new.
$1,700! Sooooooo Who makes the second best toolbox 🤣
Cody, I've been with you on the same page with all of your purchases.
This though, this is an extravagance I don't think I could ever justify.
To be fair though, that's over two months of rent for me.
Enjoy, you earned it.
I’d have a hard time spending 700 on that
I paid 600 for a used one much smaller than that in the 70s. Worked flawlessly for decades, then the movers dropped it off the truck, full of tools, onto its castor. It took a whole lotta beating with a small sledge to get it so sit even on the floor again. It needed some weld repairs, but I don't have a welder, so I bolted it back together. It's not pristine any more, but neither am I. The wrinkles and lines on my face tell the story of my life, like the scars on my toolbox.
I like nice things, and one might argue that I pay too much for some of those things, but charging $7000 for $400 worth of sheet metal and drawer slides is criminal… Talk about drinking the cool-aide…
We are detailing toolboxes now? What a joke.
My grandfather would say you got "more money than brains" -- at $8k I could buy 14 US general boxes form Harbor freight ($599) -- or 1 US general box from harbor freight and an old JD400 backhoe or old used dump truck. When I used to watch the Old Yankee Workshop with Norm -- my dad - who actually was an old yankee carpenter used to laugh because no old yankee would ever spend that amount of money Norm did in his workshop.
This is a great channel and I enjoy it very much but hopefully people realize that whats being shown here is at the high end of the spectrum and that a real homesteader is likely have to make due with much less in equipment or money --- in fact we need to come up with a new name to describe Wranglerstar - professional homeowner/homesteader doesn't seem to do it justice -- we used to have a term called Gentlemen farmer back here in the East; maybe wranglerstar should call himself a Gentleman Homesteader
Order touch up paint for a tool box? WHAT? I don’t even touch up my truck.
Who would even spend $1700 on a box like this?
Nice box! FYI: If the only reason for wanting to change the wheels to the ones that come on the Epiq's is for the swivel factor, you can just order two more of those swivel wheels you have on there now and install them where the non-swivel wheels are. I did the same thing on my masters KRL1023, so now all 4 wheels swivel. The part number for your swivel wheels are on a white sticker underneath the box on the wheel bracket. That way you only have to buy 2 more wheels instead of 4. If you just like the Epiq wheels better, then thats a whole diff story, and thats fine too :) Do a video of the wheel swap whichever way you decide to go! It's def a good upgrade to the box! Oh, and the easiest way to install the new wheels is to get a 29" long piece of 2x4 wood and put it across the bottom, front to back, so it sits across the "frame rails" under the box on the side you want to swap the wheels, then get a jack and put it under on the 2x4 and jack it up, and it will lift the box evenly. Thats the only way I could figure to do it, with my box weighing 900 pounds empty.
Have you considered bumper stops on the down the edges of the box, heard that snap on sells them for their boxes and adds extra protection to the box and any vehicle it’s close to.
Harbor freight, US general boxes are an amazing value. Alot of bang for the buck! I'd put my US general up against that snap on any day!
Definitely a great deal on that box and well worth it for $1700, But personally I could never justify spending that much on tool storage. The toolbox simply holds the tools while your not using them. Why not spend all that money on the tools themselves that are what actually do the job and get things done. Buying a $150 snap on ratchet that you are gonna use all the time and need it to perform when your upside down under your car seems a lot more justifiable than spending thousands on a toolbox that sits against the wall and just holds your tools.
just a fyi, for locks dont use a wet lubricant, the dirt and grime will eventually ruin the tumblers, use a dry graphite lube instead, if its already been gummed up, toss it in some simple green or purple power to dissolve the crud and let dry
As a locksmith I disagree. In my experience graphite causes my more problems than benefit. If it is exposed to any previous lubricant or moisture it cakes and causes friction on the pins and springs. I recommend triflow. It is a light lubricant with Teflon in suspension. When the liquid lube dries the Teflon keeps lubricating.
@@alexanderrankin8365 haven't heard of triflow, i work on automotive locking mechanisms and frequently run into gummed up tumblers from people who use wd or pb as a last resort, moisture is the bigger problem, once moisture interacts with a wet lube its properties change, while graphite lube dries into, well graphite, it seems to last longer imo, if the Teflon is unperturbed after the water dried i could see it working but i would be concerned with grime sticking, but since you've recommended it i will give it a try for the sake of giving it a try.
Be careful buying boxes owned by the big companies. A lot of mechanics sell these when they didn't even make all the payments. Always get the numbers off of it and call snap on to make sure its not still owned by the Franchisee if it is snap on can legally take it from you and your outta money and luck
Oh really? SnapOn has a homing beacons installed in their toolboxes? lmfao
@@dharmapunk777 take a grinder to the serial lol
Beautiful box it's always a joy to find a huge discount deal like this and skip paying 24 dollars a week for 108 years
I really want to like the new content, but i think this has come from professional homeowner into a MTV cribs kind of content lately.
Pretty nice , I bought one of the kirkland ones at Costco which are a great deal also but that deep draw cant be beat . That was a steel of a dea at 1700. If you dont have those dollars though you cant beat the costco one for price and quality either
I almost bought a toolbox once. Then, I decided for 1/4 of the price I bought a 45' shipping container. Now all my tools stay indoors.
My money says that box wasn’t paid for and there’s a Snapon dealer trying to find it. OCD
Hopefully he doesn’t delete it while I watching this time lol
I swear you post a video with this title every 3 months
I've never, ever given any thought to detailing a tool box. LOL Then again, I would not pay $1,700 for a bottom cabinet either.
I was going to go with a red or black box. After seeing a black box in person, I got worried my dark tools would be hard to see in dim light, so I looked at the red box. Then my dad, who was shopping with me, comments "ooooh I like this green one". I got the green one so my dad would have something to look at while he handed me tools.
The fact you where able to buy that box for that amount should give pause to anyone that is thinking of buying one new.
Sorry guys, he meant "What we paid for it".
He will push his 500 lb cart in the the house to fix a leaky pipe.
There are guys who wear Patagonia just for the label. They all show off their label and tell you how much it cost. Snap on guys seem to fit the same mold. Means nothing to me but can see you have something you enjoy-in the end, thats what matters.
You do things the right way. Love all your stuff even me being a mid west guy.
7 grand for a tool cart is absolute decadent.
The US General Box from Harbor Freight they offer a Butcher block top which is the best for working on todays cars with Aluminum everything and the butcher block top is easy on your project’s.
Open one of the drawers and then stand on it
Wrangler star,you are a hypocrite, you said toolboxes is where tools go to die
Who hurt you
My cousin has one of those single Bay roll cabs. It is not a cart. It's a Snap-On box. You don't have to explain nothing to me Cody I totally get it. I'll never forget the day I settled up with the snap-on guy for good. Now granted I have a totally different attitude towards debt in general, I avoid it. But my snap-on box and everything in it are bought and paid for. I have many financial regrets I'm only 30. That box and everything in it are nowhere near that list of regrets
I use an old 7 drawer file cabinet from the 60's, I think it was $20
I look at them often but but I really really don't want to accidentally buy a stolen one.
buying a used box is the way to go for these high-end types. I wouldn't be caught dead paying the snap on guy a cool 7 grand for that
That's a beauty! I'm looking for storage/organization solutions for my home, and am discovering that finding good quality storage of any kind is hard these days. There's a lot of cheap particle board junk out there. As for the great deal that you got goes, I can relate. Some people just have to haggle, and I do, but when the price is right, I just pay up and go like you did. I bought a 20 year-old Pink Paisley Fender Telecaster a few years ago that I found on Craigslist. When the guy pulled it out of the case and handed it to me I was stunned at how mint it was. I played it, and when it came time to make the deal I said, "Your asking price is more than fair for a guitar in this condition" and handed over the money. It's great to get a great deal on a great item.
the "brand new" price is INSANE.
As I've gotten older I found the easiest way for me to cut down on clutter in my box drawers (and make it easier to find what I need) is to use Kaizen foam and give each tool its designated spot. Its not cheap, but it really works great.
Pro tip, pull the drawers out and stick some dynamat on the interior walls and it gets rid of 80% of the rumbling while you roll it
Presumably you can put
it on the exterior instead?
@@miff227 only if you want an ugly looking tool box
@@EPA3 use Noico and it will look chrome plated 🙂
I'm sorry but there's no way I would spend that kind of money on a box that small unless I was a billionaire and then I probably still wouldn't I'll take the cheap Craftsman box that's three times that size for 800 bucks just saying God bless
I’ve had good luck with the husky boxes from Home Depot. $1000 will buy a 52” rolling cart with the top and bottom
Snapon boxes are way over priced and are not something a home owner will need. Go with US General and you will be completely happy as a home owner. Wasted his money in my opinion. However it is his money!
I was a career master auto tech and I can tell you almost no one pays MSRP on those even brand new. I believe it’s a marketing thing they do and they almost always have room to make a “deal”. I bought a Epiq 68 inch box with a classic 78 trade in and for it for $4500 out the door. Not too bad considering I paid $1800 for the classic with a student discount. You did good I believe in snap on tool boxes and also a big fan of matco tools as well! I miss being a mechanic but the headache was not worth the income.
7k for a toolbox, the world's gone made. You could pay someone to hold your tools on a velvet cushion or that!
Got a Kirkland toolbox, brand new for around 700$. Bigger, drawers are more numerous, more organized and built in a very intelligent manner with thick metal, definitely not cheaply made. I honestly don't see what's so special with Snap-On.
Maybe for tools I would understand... but when all you would need, in theory, is a bunch of drawers on wheels with a tough surface and handles to hold your stuff, that's overkill and money that could definitely be spent more wisely elsewhere.
Even if I was a millionaire, no way in hell would I spend $7k on a toolbox on wheels. I mean seriously.. 🤣
What's with all the butthurt comments over toolbox
Here is a tip for lubricating your locks use graphite solution. It goes on wet but dries fast and nothing sticks. Its especially helpful on locks because they are a pain to take apart and clean if someone has used oil in the past. Only down side is it makes a mess and looks bad so use it on things you cant see.
Life’s been a bit too busy for me to go all out on something like this. So it’s very satisfying to watch!
You complain about diesel pickup trucks being too pricey. I see why you can't afford a diesel truck now.
Touch up paint for a toolbox 😂😂 seems ridiculous in retrospect
The box is not worth 7 grand you got a decent deal they say something is only worth Wagtail people will pay for it anyone who pays 7 grand for that box would need to see a shrink because they would be nuts
Toolbox Gucci gang.
I can’t even afford Harbor Freight, Craftsman or Husky 🤣
The sad part is the guy you bought that from is probably still paying for that box
