The dart board I got is legit. Comes with 3 threaded holes in the back including rubber stoppers to level the face and stabilize the board. Extremely well designed. My old one was basically the next best dart board out there, and this one is clearly on another level

Oh, Madwi, I think you were talking about the Harbor Freight tool cabinets? The gf wanted to go there the other day to pick up a saw, and I was looking at them. The legs are kinda wobbly on them.

I wouldnt expect anything less from a HF employee. I kid I kid.

One of the reasons I haven't purchased any of the Harbor Freight tool chests is because I know the quality is lacking and I'm not sold on the value of them. Rather spend a bit more and get something I know is built better.

I have a smaller 2 drawer version of a similiar style with the craftsman name on it and it is OK. Its not terrible but not great.

The HF legs are thin aluminum. I had the two shelf push cart and no matter how much you tighten the bolt/nut, its wobbly. That said, Im still thinking of getting their tool chest...lol
I had a craftsman chest. It wasnt too bad because the drawers went all the way down to the wheels. it got stolen, with all my tools in it.

Craftsman makes a good chest. I had the 6 drawer roll away and 12 drawer top chest before I bought a bigger one from the crack dealer. I should have skipped the one I got and just went straight to the 3 bank roll cab I've got now.
But it would have been the 3 bank lower and the 3 bank top... and daf if I'd know how to move that. The 3 bank I've got now has to be moved by flat bed tow truck.....

At this point, I just need a chest..lol I have big tool bag I have my tools in, and even then I still have tools here and there, not to mention power tools laying around everywhere as well. I have to dump the bag every time I need a certain socket and its heavy AF.

I've started to buy smaller tool bags for things that are getting removed from the tool chest as I acquire more tools. I am trying to keep the bags organized, like for clamps or specialty tools or whatever. I highly recommend socket storage with visible sizes when you get your chest. Nothing like knowing you're pulling the socket size you're looking for the first time, every time
