Interesting... When those give me trouble I have to go search for pliers on the tool bag. Yours is small so it can be left on the glove box or some other quick access spot.

The goal was to be able to fit my very first tool box given to me by my old man when I was around 15 y.o., maybe less.

The only new material in this are the 16ga carbon steel trays that I had cut and bent from the steel market.

After some filing, the trays felt properly through the frame.

Now I need to get myself some socket holders/organizers and make some pliers and screwdriver hangers out of angle steel.
Nice work! Im more amazed that you have tiles in your garage! Unheard of here in OZ.

Haha! You´d be more amazed to see it having double duty as birthday party saloon when my kids were younger! The garage has seen its share of Little Mermaid, Princess, Pirates and Dog Patrol decorations!

Yeah Id be worried about using a trolley jack on them and cracking a tile. Unless they are not normal tiles and are more robust than the usual tile.

Tiles are heavy duty type, meant for severe usage like public spaces where a lot of people would go over them daily. But not HD such that I can drop a brake caliper without crackng it (didn´t pass that quality control test when I dropped one). But as for the trolley jack, I have replaced the solid steel wheels for poly wheels the day I got it, so I could be more comfortable dragging it over the tiles.
