 Tool cabinet on castors - legacylad
A major garage sort out is imminent...I’ve a number of metal tool boxes, lots of containers such as plastic boxes, tins etc etc....a large 8 drawer, or similar, on castors, would solve storage problems for all manner of tools scattered around both the house and garage.
I don’t need a huge SnapOn type which is 5’ tall, but I need to be able to see the wood for the trees when I’m opening drawers.
I assume the £99 variety (SGS Mechanic 8 drawer) aren’t particularly strong, but it won’t be used on a professional basis.
Any recommendations please...second hand is fine so I’ll trawl EBay once I hear from those more knowledgeable.

Try Halfords, they've always got loads of choice.

SGS are a good make, I've bought various bits and bobs from them over the years, not had any problems with them that I can remember.

If its not going to be in use 8 hours a day for 6 days a week in a garage, then cheap is fine.

Eggsacktly. So long as it doesn’t fall apart and the drawers open that will do me.

Tools in drawers doesn't really work for me. I use this sort of thing and have done for years;

Not necessarily exactly those, mine are a nice sensible blue colour. But that sort of thing.
