Been sitting outside for a couple of years. It's an older unit and fairly heavy duty. Double friction slides on the larger drawers and a pull down door. Even has an electrical outlet plumbed into it. It's a little larger than most too at 34" W x 20" D x 33" H. A bonus is it's Made in USA! I'll probably use it to hold metal working tools and supplies. At my job, the powers that be told me to dump it. So, I did............right into the bed of my truck! Anyone seen one of these before?









They tossed this too. Nothing special but my stepson has no toolbox at all. I'll give it to him. Hey, it's a start!

Wow, great boxes at a great price. Why can I never find those toss it specials?

The top box is an MBC box. They made really good boxes and even made quite a few boxes for snap on. That looks like a MBC version of a snap on "roll a bench KR-300"

Bottom box looks like a stack on, or other snap on knock off that I can't remember at this time. Congrats :beer:

MBC made boxes for SO before they did. That looks to be basically the same as a kr 300 " rollabench". Very good box, to give you an idea, the same basic box was made from the early 40's to 95.

Wow, an SO knockoff! Haha. Cool! Any idea of the age? I'm thinkin' late 60's/early 70's.

I think it's a lot older than that.

Here's my late-40s/early-50s Snap-On KR-300 for comparison:

Has the optional 3 bottom drawer section, otherwise the drawer layout would be exactly the same as yours.
