$200 BUCKS? ARE YOU JOKING?
I just picked up a parts tractor with one of them on the back seat. I new it was rare but not that rare.

good job rob. again this is why i miss being in the big shops, you have all the tools at your disposal. enjoy it while your there, make as much as you can. thats why i'am looking for a pressbrake. i can make anything if i have one of those. i have the rest of the tools minus that one,  |

| you are right as always kingfriday lol freddie it is crs i can make it in ss but that would be costly i contemplating weather to use ebay and let them ride or put a price on them and just fill orders as needed got four wants already |

Looks like some fine work. I have no need for a tool box on my tractors. But,,,, make up a couple pair of B-112 grille trim in shiny stainless, then I might let go of a bit of green! |

| i would put one on ebay to see what you can get for them. i know you said one went for $200 but that was an origanal allis box. remades can bring 1/2 to 3/4 that i would think, go for it. i'am sure mine is already in the mail for x-mas l.o.l geeeez i miss working in the shop, no fare |

| Nice work! I too think you should put a few on ebay. Do a limited production run and see what you get. Probably not worth the time, but only you can figure that. |

| would you mount that box with 1/4" spacers to keep the hinge off the seat frame? |

The pictures I seen on the "other" site it looks to me the hinge is formed so as to clear the back of the tool box. It looks to me the the knuckles of the hinge are flush with the back. Great looking tool box.
