THIS IS AN ONGOING ITEM!
Who really wants a big plastic toolbox in the house? Ok, raise your hand. If you did not raise your hand please continue reading. A toolbox not meant for carrying around on the job but very, very, handy to have at home in the closet. Not too big and not too small,no compartments, just a solid open box waiting to hold all your basics in one place. When I used to work as a set designer we all had our "kits". These were the tools and supplies you needed to get by on the job. I started out with a huge kit by my standards, a big plastic toolbox (so ugly) and a big storage bin filled with other goodies. Large but could be transported in a taxi. Other people, generally men, needed vans specifically to hold their kits. Hmmmm, similar to owning a flashy sports car I think. Time went by and I started going on planes to get to jobs and my kit shrunk down quite quickly into a camera-person's bag- a round, soft tub thing with many compartments, as over time, I realized what tools one can do without. When you get down to it I think you need 5 different tools for home repair and then some screws, hooks and what-not. This toolbox is a nod to more "informed" handy-persons, though it comes in a very flashy 1980s automobile blue. I wonder why? Did we come back around to the sports car complex yet again?
