So I've decided to start another world-class thread, this time showing off your toolbox.

 

This thread would also be great to discuss what specialty tools you have that are used for certain jobs, like a ball joint seperator for example.

 

Here's mine:

My most recent aquisition for the toolbox was a set of metric ratchet spanners made by Toolex (supposedly made in same factory as Sidchrome). Mmm, ratchety goodness, makes tearing things apart really quick.

Are your ratchet spanners reversible as well?

Ratchet spanners are great !

I also have a set of metric ratchet-ring and open end spanners, they are really handy.

Yep they sure are reversable! lefty loosey 1 way, flip spanner over and righty tighty. Cunning, hey? The spanners have floppy ratchet ends which is great for really tight spots. They don't have a ratchet open end though, which can come in handy where you can only access one side of a bolt.

Which is all good until you undo a bolt and find you can't get the spanner off, and can't do it back up because you can't get the spanner off, which is stuck on the bolt because you can't do it back up again, because you can't get the spanner off because it's stuck on the bolt..........

yep mine have this little flicky lever thingo that makes it go the other way internally.

 

Id post up picks of my tool kit or umm say kit's,box's,wall arrangement's but don't know where to start so many but my basic traveling kit is very much like ravens.

 

My latest addition to my tool kit is a shed, 12.2m X 6.2m, 2.7m opening height. 125mm thickness floor from 2m starting at the back of the shed and 135mm for the rest.

 

All my crap is still inside the house,garden shed and under the carport but i need time to sort some decent shelving.

Woot! your 2 axles stands and a crane up on me hahahaha.

 

I guess my next big tool will be welder so i can make a frame in the roof of the shed to mount a block and tackle on the end of a rail running the width of the shed

 

I definately need a few more jack stands.

Also forgot to mention my trolley jack haha :y:

 

My old man has a 30yo Cigweld ARC Welder, which does a good job :lolcry:

 

If you want a welder, come see/talk/call me at work. We sell those too and I'll do you a good price :lolcry:

Toolbags are good to have in you car.

 

I used to have a steel toolbox in my ke15, but once I upgraded the suspension and put decent tyres on it, I had to remove it from the car. It kept wanting to flip over during hard cornering, so I went to a toolbag.
