I bought a great stainless steel rolling box from Sam's Club to replace my aging, smaller Craftsman box. The Craftsman was still in great shape after 30 years. I would have kept both, but I don't have enough room.

The Sam's Club box is probably an import, but appears to be very good quality. It came with nice drawer liners as well.

I have a Snap-On, I bought it because of Angelle on it (back in the Winston days when she looked so fine in her leathers) Also have a Craftsman Professional series, both are top quality. Just make sure you buy the roller bearing type, they hold more weight and last for years.

My neighbor got two of these things from Sam's... They are HUGE... Ball Bearings and everything... Nice rigs.

I have the Craftsman two piece set. Both ball bearing. I wish I had gotten the black professional ones with the door handle locking drawers... but the one I have is real nice. Not as big as I would like but I think I paid $250 for the set on sale.

I can't beleive that nobody has already said it, check the pawn shops. A friend of mine got a $1100.00 rolling chest for $650.00.

most of what you will find will be the Mac, Snap-On, Cornwell stuff.......
