I've been using an old Kennedy fishign tackle box for my locksmith
work. But, it's kinda heavy. I've been getting more business at the
malls. Have to park outside, and walk past ten or so stores, to get
to the job.
So I made a six or seven pound "jump kit" basic hand tools, and that
does most of what I need for jobs in shopping malls. Most of the time
I can wrap up the job. Sometimes have to go back out for more tools.
Friend of mine I know through email, has a rolling tool box from
Stanley, carries locks, tools, drill, and so on.
You had any experience with rolling tool boxes? Worth the trouble?
At a recent trade show I noticed many of the union guys using
roll-arounds. The most common was an ordinary tool box strapped to a
fold-up (high-quality) dolly. I suspect the wheeled tool-boxes had
inferior wheels.
Many of them have polyurethane wheels, which are probably fine once on the
mall floors. I doubt they'd take much mileage on asphalt or rough finish
concrete.
