Talking of tool box/bag, I've been looking for a cantilever /metal/ tool

I've a strong dilike of plastic boxes, especially with one catch, plastic
'hinges' and the handle on the lid - just asking for trouble. I don't want
to carry the lid-box or have the box flap down.
I had one box where the catch failed after just a few operations - that
DeWalt one that SF gave away a while ago.


My electrical toolbox is over 30 years old, has six trays as well as the
large bottom compartment yet is only 13 inches long. Its full, Ive sat
on it, I've stood on it and I've carried it around with its one lid top
handle, Ive even dropped it a couple of times yet its still as good as
the day I was given it, that includes the single plastic catch.

Its plastic! Branded "Art Bin"

Trouble is, it was good 30 years ago; now it's been 'value engineered' down
to a profit margin.
