Default Post up your tool collection

The tool thread seemed pretty popular so I thought I would start another one. Post pictures of your toolboxes, work area, and best of all, tools. I don't have time right now but I'll post mine up later. So, got a lot of tools? Lets see 'em.

OK, I finally got some time to post my tools. I started the collection just before I got the box which was 2.5 years ago on my 16th birthday. It has since turned into this. Alot of the tools are focused on metalwork and bodywork. I figure I have approx. 3g wrapped up in tools, with most of it being in the welding rig(1g).

Reason for the tools:

Workbench is dismantled right now for garage stereo install.

Workbench contents: two Makita grinders and some assorted body tools:


My 50'* SnapOn box I'm restoring:

Starting from the bottom of the box and going up, Facom body tools:

Sockets & Rachets:

Cman Pro Pry Bars and some cheap hammers:

Welding clamps:

Gearwrenches(reversible&stubby, flex-head coming soon):

Regular Cman combo wrenches:

Cheap Screwdrivers, Cman Pros coming soon:

Plier/Cutter drawer:

Thats all for now.
