Locked storage.

[Benner]

Now that the kids are getting a little older and more and more interested in Daddy's "toys" I am needing a more secure way of storing my tools.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks

Ben

Roll away top section. Very secure and can even be bolted down if needed.

How about a nice safe? Even something like this would work: http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=882239&sourceid=1500000000000003260410&ci_src=14110944&ci_sku=882239

Dude, you've seen my collection right? 

[hawkchucker]

i use 6 drawer toolbox from mac tools,it can be locked too,and has ball bearings in drawers so it opens up nicely too.

[Leatherman123]

Yeah, it's not that big!   I would go for a Craftsman toolbox. Like the one hawk posted about!

[hawkchucker]

I use mine at home also. I line the drawers with a wool blanket cut up and sprayed with silicone lube.

[Freudian Frog]

How about sending half of your tools away?

Eh? Eh? Then there wouldn't be a problem!

I volunteer.

DaveK had a similar thing and I do like that idea.

[hawkchucker]

Well nice thing is you can bolt it down, and I do.

[Tarrodemierda]

from harbour freight,i think you can get a cheap one.

[hawkchucker]

Big time!! You get Harbor Freight over there?

We just got a store in Andover. Only about 45 mins from me.

Well it's larger than that tiny petty cash tin.    My EDC would fill that!

ATM, yes.  It is looking pretty bad.

I remember when I was a kid, I would go into all my fathers "hiding places" it wasn't secure!
a bolt down tool box with a lock (theirs or yours) sounds like a good idea.

how about you guys? did you all get into things and "Play!"

[hawkchucker]

Yes I played in my dads shop one day and fooled around with his torches. I did not have eyebrows for a month.

no we dont

we dont have anything here


but ive received stuff from there with a help of this partially finnish biker i know from Delaware,who i met at jockeyjournal.com.

[Leatherman123]

LOL!  

[Tarrodemierda]

I find it works really well for me - and it does have a lock, so might do you Ben. They come in lots of different drawer configurations too. All the stuff you can see in this pic fits in there comfortably with enough space for at least another 10 full size MTs.



I paid about £40 for that one, and stuck to a name that's well known, so if/when I want to add to it, I'll be able to find what I need.

I got it from these guys (collected from local branch). Have a surf around here http://www.machinemart.co.uk/shop/product/details/ctc103-3-draw-step-up-chest/path/clarke-professional-tool-chest-range .

I sure didn't! Never had a chance to! My dad was the type to leave tools and nails and other hardware lying around... or in a bucket... or in several buckets, lying around... or any mixture! Just general tool neglect.

I remember everytime I needed a tool I was scared to put my hand in that bucket because of the number of screws and nails and rusty sharp objects at the bottom of it...

I use a top Cabinet, and the top flip part has all my stones, and oils and greese for the lights.
