Affordable Storage off the Tool Truck
« on: January 25, 2015, 02:30:52 PM »
Handy for hanging off the side of the tool cart I am looking for. It's just one of those things you can add to the pile at the pawn shop without changing the price total. My pile would have been $5 with or without this in it.

Id like to fill mine as well, any idea of what the Mac socket #s would have been to fill this?
Always looking for what interests me, anything early Dodge Brothers/Graham Brothers trucks ( pre 1932 or so ) and slant six / Super six parts.

I have several of those i guy at work gave me. He gave them to me because tool theft was a real problem at my last job. You could not leave your tools alone, or they would vanish. Even if you found your tools in someones tool box the company would do nothing about it saying they probably just borrowed it and forgot to return it. I can't believe i put up with that poop for 32 years.

That makes me think of an old carpenter who worked in the early days of WWII.  He had a saw that he had dropped and broken off one of the horns some time in the '20s.  Put the broken piece in his tool box to put back on when he got around to it.   It was, of course, still in his tool box. One morning his saw came up missing on the job.  He put the piece in his pocket and waited until lunch time.  At lunch time, he walked over to where a bunch of carpenters were sitting.  He saw his tool, pulled the piece out of his pocket and in front of everybody walked over, picked up his saw and put the missing piece to the broken handle.  No words -- he just looked at the fellow who had it and walked away.
