Ok, guys. Sorry to jump in here, but I've got a husband who just turned half our garage into a workshop.
Some background...
He's got a CNC machine set up, a metal lathe, and a plethora of other things. I asked him how many needle nose pliers he had and his answer was "quite frankly, not enough."
He works on amps and other music paraphernalia and I suspect he's branching out into other areas.
Here's the thing. His birthday is coming up and I love getting him stuff he hasn't gotten his eager hands on yet. It used to be pedals, guitars, and amps...but that's gotten old and the guys at Mesa Boogie are running out of things to suggest since my husband often gets to things before I do.
I need to keep my reputation as best gift-giver of this household.
SO, here is my question.
I would love to get him a beautiful (and obviously functional) machinst toolbox. He has a big roll-around guy, but I'm not spying a smaller, more on-the-go option in his workshop. Pray he's not hiding it somewhere.
I was looking at the Kennedy 8 drawer machinist toolbox (it speaks to my aesthetics), but wanted to see if you guys had any suggestions. Also, should it be the 8 drawer? Maybe the 11 drawer?
Let me put it this way. What machinist item would put you over the moon if you got from you wife.
Man, I really hope he's not part of this forum.
And does anyone have a place they trust to order from for delivery?
Thanks!
And sorry to kinda crash the party.
I DO appreciate the intricacies of what you guys do!
