Nice Setup love ❤️ the boxes I have a similar set up smaller scale but definitely growing my tools as my knowledge Grows

J.T... never get tired of seeing your tours. thanks for another great one. I will say though.. I am NOT envious (okay.. I'm a liar too.. lol)

I'm just getting started out building out my Garage chest and it's only a 44" so I can only imagine how much you have in tools here but this is amazing and makes me want to get to this level one day.

Hey, thank you! It takes time, but a keen eye for detail and good prices is the key to growth. That said, while I’m not sure where you’re located, access to online auctions, estate sales and pawnshops are a great way to located deals. Another method I use is Facebook marketplace

This would be a great set up for any professional too! Good stuff!

Enjoyed the tour. I hope the top drawer shows up. I don't have much faith in this company from past dealings. Good luck.

Great job James!

I love how cheap you got into that much storage space. Super cool setup

It’s been a great box for sure. I’ve seen several on KZread, but not as loaded down as mines. That said, they can hold a lot and I’ve not experienced any issues with the slides, bearings, etc. The only issue I have is the price. When I bought mine, I only paid $1200. Now their up to $1698… that’s a lot, and a major reason why I elected to buy something cheaper

Really Nice video! , I really like your collection, I was wondering if you could tell me where you bought your ratchet organizers for your ratchets, they are simple and great, I really like those! Thank you in advance.

I bought them from a guy that ran an online business called Apex Organizers. They are 3D printed, and I believe the designs are on a open-source server, so anyone can print their own. There are a number of other individuals that also make a similar holder

So they make a universal damaged/broken spark plug removal kit? I tried looking on Amazon but all I found was one for a Ford. Do you know of any places I may be able to look? Oh and by the way, great freaking tool box man, EPIC!

That’s cool but I couldn’t handle having all these options. Less is more in my opinion. That setup and all you have is a massive asset in case you need to free up some cash fast.

@MidwestToolReview

It’s annoying sometimes and you find yourself using the same sets repeatedly. Nonetheless, if I had to liquidate tools to free up cash, the ROR would be higher based on the brands I have, versus owning cheaper brands.

Quality set up 👌

Hi Merrick, cool name by the way! I only spent $3k on my tools because I purchased nearly everything from a Snap-on dealer who’d just retired. In 2019-2021, I was selling thousands of dollars in tools to my audience to help my retired dealer liquidate his inventory. Snap-on Corporate bought a ton back from him, but he also sold a lot to the general public before they came calling. Now, nearly everything I purchased for myself was warrantied if it was damaged or broken. Because of my professional and personal affiliation with Snap-on, I was able to get things taken care of. Results may vary for others…nonetheless, that’s my total investment, and to be really honest, I rounded up to $3k…I’m probably more like $2.0k-$2.5k all in…

All that for 3k🤨

Yessir.. I met a retiring Snap-on dealer and over time, we became friends. He sold me thousands but I only paid pennies on the dollar. That said, I built my setup from the ground up.
