Morning fellas! Midweek already, going quick.

In other news, wife had planned to get me a new tool chest prior to the whole garage wall collapse, and now that the garage is rebuilt, it's finally here!

When she ordered it, she had it sent to the home depot in Delaware both as a surprise, and because Delaware doesn't have sales tax. She asked her parents to pick it up. What she didn't realize is that the chest weighs ~700 lbs, 480ish for the bottom unit and a bit over 220 for the top. Home Depot was kind enough to load it up, but I arrived home and discovered I somehow had to get the chest out of their truck with the help of Megan and my 2 frail in-laws.

Grabbed ramps I use to load my mower into the truck, used packing straps and slid the bottom unit down the ramps onto a dolly. It turned out to be pretty easy, but I realize how much I'm used to just brute forcing crap with my brothers as opposed to needing communication and leverage... my knuckle dragging impulses are pretty strong.

tl;dr - I have a new tool chest and it's a big upgrade. I also didn't kill my in-laws or spouse. Good day.

I think it's that guy right there. It's not Snap-On, but a hell of a lot better than my flimsy-*** Craftsman stuff. The drawers are really well made and slide nicely, with thick rails. It's certainly heavy. I'll get actual pictures when I've got the old ones unloaded and the new one set in place.

And the fun begins. Moving tools from one box to another.

Anyone interested in hearing about my tupperware & cardboard box tool storage "system"? Been working somewhat ok for years.
