sorry Dave - glanced at the avatar and thought it was six feet .. IIRC he's been looking at chests -- will certainly do a job, 'specially with those decent depth drawers :cool:
To be honest it wasn’t far off the price of a new Milwaukee setup.. but tried and tested and can resell at what I paid anytime I want.
Mainly justified by the fact I do all my own servicing/repairs, which saves about 4 k a year alone!

We need US general stuff over here. In fact harbour freight would do well just opening a warehouse and a website here I bet.
yeh i'd love a wander round a Harbour Freight depot :giggle::giggle:

I used to buy loads of Bergen out of a shiny red transit but was a legit fella...😆
yeh used to have a fella called Mike ???? used to call in to us ... legit fella .. still got his card - from Upton on Severn IIRC .. does all the steam rallies and markets round here -- would've had his collar felt in the last 25 years if he wasn't legit :ROFLMAO:

No as far as I gather harbour freight stuff actually works 😜

Yanks will probably laugh at us TBF ...or most deffo would if they saw how small our local MM is
aye ... they don't **** about with their tool shops over there, do they? ... :cool:
if you can think of it, they'll probably have stock - in several different brands/varieties/price ranges :rolleyes::cry: :cry: ...
Watch Ambition Strikes and see just what they can pick up from local I.E.s - steel, cladding, timber of all sorts of weird and wonderful dimensions, etc., etc., etc. - all locally :oops:o_O
