You better buy a HUGE tool box now...
I was an aerospace machinist just under 15 years. I had a ginormous Kennedy (brown wrinkle finish) roll-around.

I started with a 12 drawer Craftsman tool box and I've been upgrading (getting bigger) ever since. I now have a Snap-on Corvette box (cue the bad jokes) that is 6 foot long, 20+ inches deep and stands about 40" tall. It takes a flat bed tow truck to move it.



Oh.... and it's full.........




Time for a bigger box.......

Dont hold your breath but I might have a picture us hoisting a gigantic snap-on box to the ceiling of the machine shop. It was the new VP's first day and we thought it would be funny. It was a thing of beauty swinging 30ft in the air. We used the 40 ton hoist just in case

You guys make me jealous. I've got a decent size craftsman 3-tier tool box I've filled up since owning the Z. Of course, one of the large drawers in the bottom tier is full of Z parts (both removed OEM parts and to-be-installed mods).

Finally got a tiny air compressor last year also. Hardly use it but I'm slowly building up the tools and got a retractable hose reel

At least you have a dedicated tool box. My tools are in two portable tool boxes that are either in the basement or garage. Always happens that the tool I need is in the other tool box haha. I too have gathered many tools over the years through various house and car projects.

You guys are killing me here... I am full up in my single car garage. Heck, I want to buy a new miter saw I literally had to sell some tools on craigslist this morning to make room before I could get it.
