Couple draws weren’t fully closed and locked in. I asked someone to grab something for me. He left the top draw open which has ratchets sets in. As it leaned forward all the draws opened and it went with a bang.What caused the box to topple?
Horrible feeling isn’t it Mine fell through a pallet. Worked like the worlds biggest slide hammer. Not a straight drawer on it I ignored it in the corner for months as I was so annoyed.Couple draws weren’t fully closed and locked in. I asked someone to grab something for me.

Areived, the strip led is extremely bright, very flexible so it should easily stick onto a welding lid. For my lid the only suitable place is below the screen.Also ordered one of these, think it'll be good for attaching on welding lid.
New to me tool box. Unfortunately two weeks ago my Halfords box went over destroying the top box and damaging the two others, broke a few draws and runners. It was absolutely immaculate.
To stop it happening again I made two steel wire loops up and bolted the handles over them. No chance of it falling over now!

Sorry to hear about your misfortune here. Great idea in restraining the cabs. I'll do the same when I am able to establish some space along a wall for mine.New to me tool box.

I've had one for a while - one of the LEDs in the strip has failed, not that you'd notice the rest are so bright.Areived, the strip led is extremely bright, very flexible so it should easily stick onto a welding lid. For my lid the only suitable place is below the screen.
The spot light part, I can think of a few uses with the strip removed, so might get some more.
Really is. I was so upset. I really looked after it. I managed to make the new one nice by swapping bits around thankfully. Not quite the same as your first toolbox haha.

More ****** off about a snap on box getting destroyed than anything else that’s happened in a long time!
The top box especially was pretty well broken to be fair. I am going to scrap it. I managed to raid bits to fix the other two. They only have a couple dents thankfully now.Can you get runner kits from halfrauds?
You might get lucky and find a knackered box with a good drawer or two?
Too late now but this is why i always have the heavy stuff in the bottom draws and set my boxes up so they are biased leaning back by a few degrees by packers under front castorsCouple draws weren’t fully closed and locked in.

That’s a good idea but It should all be good now to be fair. There’s no way it can lean now.Too late now but this is why i always have the heavy stuff in the bottom draws and set my boxes up so they are biased leaning back by a few degrees by packers under front castors
I’d go out and grab yourself a lottery ticket prontoNot one, but two wins with the easy outs. British BSF bolt grabbed easily, chinese m8 deformed and I was worried I was going to fail, but eventually it came.
