Glad I could help!

Nice, my snap on did well for me also, I don’t move this one as I own my own shop now!

Good move - wish you health and prosperity

Still cheaper and better the strap on

My coworker has one and it’s the worst piece of crap I’ve ever seen, hopefully you got a better model but his is only a year old so idk, if it works for you then that great!!

@@rosinsautofab1956I’m not a husky fan but two guys I work with in diesel fleet maintenance have huskys and they’ve had them for going on 7 years each with no problems.

Ya the older ones are probably built better, I too am a fleet mechanic for a utility company

​@rosinsautofab1956 Husky has a standard duty and a Heavy Duty line. The Heavy Duty line is pretty comparable to Icon, the standard Duty are similar to a US General Series 1 or 2!

Yep!

Yep

Thanks, with all the crazy inflation hf is about all I can afford anymore

Thanks, it gets used daily and is holding up great with zero issues

Well said and I had a snap on and it was worth the transition👌 going in 2 years of every day abuse and zero issues with quality

I’m getting excited! Thank you for making all the videos about your toolbox. If I can find a buyer for mine, I’m going this exact same route with the same set up and same color!

Nuttier than a squirrel turd!

That’s awesome!!

Thanks for sharing!

Crazy I haven’t broke one yet maybe you got a bad batch? I believe you can buy replacement parts for them.

Should be lifetime warranty

Enjoy it

I have a feeling you will get the box you want someday! Thanks for watching

Thanks Ed!!!

I use it everyday from about 9am to 1pm before heading to work. Most weekends as well. Used every day as we are a licensed business and have multiple fleet accounts. Thanks for watching

No mane likes giving up depth😂

I had a few snap on boxes over the years, this icon box is just as good. Lots of betters things to spend money on than a brand name box

@@rosinsautofab1956 Practicality is out the window when something like this is available. So the only thing left is to ask yourself, "do I want to my colleagues to admire me and be broke, or to go to work and make money while being able to afford to get there in style & be admired by the ladies on the way there. The only person who can easily afford to own a snap-on setup this extensive and not even remotely feel the squeeze is the only person who should, & if that's the case, then they still won't be getting one because they're the ones hiring people to turn wrenches 🔧, not the ones who still have to do it for a living!

This one is in my home shop so I’m about the only one that gets to admire it👌

They went in fine but I think the powder coat got in the holes and gauled up the soft grade 5 bolts 🥲

@@rosinsautofab1956 Rated grade 5, but like everything else from China, way overrated. More like grade 2 bolts... Every single thing I have put together from China in the last SEVERAL years the bolts have been complete TRASH. Many times I found myself going to Lowes to buy replacements that were much higher quality. This is why it is "almost" worth it to buy a Snap-On or Matco box. US made, and US Quality. I use HF for one thing and one thing only - I need a particular tool RIGHT NOW and cannot wait - I'll grab it at HF. I will eventually replace it with a Snap-On, Wright, Proto, etc - American Quality replacement.

100% agree, I have a full set of snap/proto/mac…. Etc at work and a mixed bag in my personal shop, I don’t discriminate on any of it, guys that have been doing it long enough know where a guy can get away with chinesium and when he can’t 👌

Ya, that’s why I sold my strap on….

I ended up ordering the triple bank, top, hutch and light for 5K flat! Going to say goodbye to my strap on box when it arrives! Thanks again for your videos got it in the same color

i aswell tossed snapon box over getting a hutch for an icon setup they need more color options tho

Just buy the snapon hutch and light setup. Will match and will last. Do not cheap out and support the Chinese now.

@@stevenjacobson8177will never pay an absurd amount for a hutch and light. I’m going with what’s best bang for buck product and my icon box feels no less sturdier than my snap on box

25”

Interesting, I don’t plan on selling my tools or box but you never know

But why would I pay more for a used item?

Not really shy at all, it’s just weird taking to myself, not really sure where to look or what to say when your taping yourself 🤣

​@@rosinsautofab1956 it takes a while to get used to that. It is awkward at first.

Haha yes, the first video I made was hilarious to go back and watch now, thanks for the support!

A good friend and I decided years ago to start a yt channel. Many of the first videos were awkward as heck but eventually we acted like the camera wasn’t there it became a lot more natural at that point along with ease of editing. Keep on keeping on it gets easier we wound up with right at 300k subs in no time it seemed. Channel has since been dissolved but it was fun at time’s horrible at others lol

Thank you, worked my ass off for it!

🤡

Only guys that would disagree don’t own one…. Yet

@@rosinsautofab1956 It's a relatively new product and reputations take time to build. I've got to imagine their share of the market is growing. I think the resale value will get stronger too once people really start to understand what this thing is.

They dropped the price dramatically. I basically got 2 for 1. Honestly they’re more of a luxury but I’m glad I got em. I installed shop lights on the doors. It’s nice.

Prob 6-8 weeks for everything

@@rosinsautofab1956 I just ordered the 73in box July 29th and they said it won’t be here till this December🙄

2 week for my 73" blue box

1 month for mine, but they called a week before delivery and kept in contact all the way until it arrived, can’t complain

Got mine 7-8 weeks after ordering

Post your pricing and let’s check it out

No problem, better quality than my 10 year old snap on

Just under 4 years and happy with mine. Heavy daily shop use and no real issues. I twisted out the internal stop on one of my six locks. It do es180 now instead of 90 but still locks fine. Slammed a service cart into a drawer tensioner and broke the tab. My heaviest single rail drawer will brush the drawer below if they’re both open. I’m at $9k for 72” box,stainless top, hutch, 2 lockers, 72” top cab and 56” top cab. Yes it’s a lot of money for a box but it’s also a lot of box for the money.

No dents but I don’t beat on it, seems to be pretty heavy gauge and it’s has plywood base under it

@rosinsautofab1956 oh okay, I'll be throwing dirtbike/ATV engines on it. I expect it to get a little beat up but want it to atleast last.

I think you will be fine, my side box gets lots of heavy parts tossed on it

Thanks man, you can purchase drawers for the icon box if you want more of one size, I run a home business out of my shop and it gets used everyday, been holding up great so far and I feel like it will last a lifetime, I agree on the selective tool purchasing from hf, guys like us know what’s good and where to spend the money on tools for sure!

How can you buy the drawers

100% 👌😂

Box as it sits with 8.7 tax was 13k

So compared to a snap on or Mac cornwell, or Matco how much money do you think you say if you would’ve gotten the same thing for them?

​@@rosinsautofab1956holy crap that a lot of tax

@@terrellscaife2411you could buy a Toyota Corolla for what a tool truck brand box would cost in the same size

40-50k if I had to guess but don’t quote me lol

I hope some day you find happiness, or not

Ya no shit! The family was already evacuated, we had plenty of time 🤦‍♂️

I agree that Snap On and other tool truck boxes are out of hand expensive. But teaching the upcoming generations to buy cheap is teaching them to support China. We need to instill in the young kids that buying American is a win/win deal. When you buy American, you’re supporting American jobs and companies. And 9 times out of 10, you’re getting a much better product. I buy simple stuff from HF when I need it: consumables, such as sandpaper or little $20 tools that I might only use once a year. But when I’m making a major purchase on a machine or tools, welding equipment, etc, I try my best to buy American, or German or Italian or even Taiwanese made equipment. Anything is better than China. I realize not everybody can afford American made tools and equipment. But I believe we should teach our youth that spending more money now will save you money in the long run. You’re better off buying used American made equipment than buying brand new Chinese equipment. And, if you’re going to buy Chinese tools, better off buying them used. That way, you’re getting a cheap price, but you’re not supporting China (as much). Also: the resale value on Chinese toolboxes and other tools isn’t near as good, percentage wise, as American stuff.

@@zenlandzipline i agree - but charity starts at home first. I’m not gonna support someone spending (MUCH) more money just to make a point, when doing that involves putting yourself into debt or not getting extra value for the dollar you spent. Support for American jobs, American companies, and American made products needs to start in Washington DC FIRST. “If you (let them) build it, they will come”. Todays reality is a person can earn themselves and their family the same income with buying gearwrench compared to Snap On. For American companies to succeed Washington needs to make them a priority before the consumer does, and if Channellock can still make and sell American made pliers at an affordable and competitive price point, theres no reason why Snap On couldn’t either. IF they wanted to. Snap On has gotten too big for its own good, which is why their products needs to sell for 5-10x price. Theres no reason why a person should have to pay crazy margins when buying the same tool online, to support the tool trucks and warranty services that will never be made available to them. Likewise - there’s NO reason why a person should need to spend double the price on a hammer, simply because Snap On took someone else’s hammer and slapped their logo on it.

@@kctyphoon I agree with everything you said. Snap On is out of hand. And if they don’t correct themselves with their pricing, it’s going to hurt them bad. I think there is something we need to consider though: Buying Snap On or Mac or Matco is an investment. Yes, the toolbox will depreciate, but you can still put a used Snap On box up for sale and get more than half of what you paid for it, even if it’s 10-15 years old. So, think of it like this: you pay $10,000 for a Snap On box (I know, it’s frickin ridiculous) and you use it to make a living for 8-10 years. Then you decide to get out of the mechanic business. You can sell that box for $5000-$6000 (if you didn’t totally abuse it). So, really, you paid $5000 and had a nice box with all of the prestige and respect that comes with it, for 10 years. Even if you only get $4000 for it, it’s still not $10,000. FWIW, I’m not a mechanic, and I’ve never bought a Snap On box. I’m a welder. I do own a Matco rolling cart/box that I paid $150 for. Sometimes you find great deals. I just don’t believe the resale value on that Icon box is going to be very high, unless he sells it before it starts breaking down and getting beat up. But his box is a a home box, probably won’t get beat up like it would at a real garage. Either way…we should buy American whenever we can afford it. And contrary to what you said about “it all starts in DC”, I think it starts with the consumer and the overall mentality of the citizens of the country. (Yes, I know, DC has a large bearing on the psyche of the country, but we citizens can take it upon ourselves to do what is right.)

Buy American keep chinese $hit on the docks piling up in their country and ours usa japan European for tools some Taiwan stuff is descent but still fails enough

I mean i spent 1300 on a 40 inch full bank matco roll cart decent deal i hate the cheaper tool box slides (professional mechanic so i use the piss out of it) however icon and homestly us general has gotten pretty damned good

Yes sir 38k on the snap on website for the closets model after 8% tax in my state, hopefully the dealer will get it to you for free and he doesn’t mark it up. I guess I was off by a bit but not bad shooting from the hip

I watch his videos, but that's it.

@@rosinsautofab1956 No Snap-On box sells for list price!!! 🤣😂🤣😂 That was the point of my comment. I’ve got a bigger Snap-on Epiq double stack, bought new off the truck for $16k. 150”

Strap on fan boy I guess then, have a good one, thanks for the comment

@@rosinsautofab1956he said he got a double bank for $16k lol now add the price of the work center, two side lockers and top lockers 😂

Thanks, glad you like it

Which one of your dads hurt you?

Jealousy is a one hell of a drug friend

Thanks Karen

yeah Karen no one cares about your opinion . leave this to man !!

​@@williamjovel8106 don't feed the trolls 😅

​@@williamjovel8106 Kyle I appreciate you stepping in to defend your lover but honestly people do care it's called being honest you can't go around in life saying things like I have 4 inches when you only have a millimeter.

Now here’s a guy just trying to justify blowing a ton of money on a toolbox - to himself. Tell us - how much did they get ya for?? Lol

Must have been a defect, my top drawer is loaded and no issues, they “feel better with weight in them, your certainly entitled to your opinion👌

All box drawers wiggle when empty

A lot of snap on tools are rebranded built in Chinese and other countries factories, blue point is even worse, haven’t you herd the story about the hf and snap on floor jacks😂, there boxes and most hand tools are made in the us still

I definitely will avoid harbor freight you get what you pay for 👎👎👎👎

@@ryang1589 what ever pay thousands then for me single woman hf fine

@@ryang1589 you should stop in some time, it’s not like it used to be…

@@rosinsautofab1956 have I like hf

@@ryang1589 Yeah, if you're a moron who buys their cheese grade $3 wrench set and think that's representative of the entire store. What do you get when you pay $800 on SnapOn's mid-torque impact wrench? A piece of shit that can't outperform an M12 stubby that weighs half as much and costs under a 1/3. Throwing a ton of money at something isn't actually a guarantee you get a good product either. There's a balancing act. But you need to be an actual informed consumer to understand this concept. Mindlessly buying stuff just because you were sold on logos isn't any smarter than the guy who thinks buying $3 wrenches gets them a product on par with higher end hand tools.

Always was all these bafoons are doing is supporting commies

You prob haven’t been there in a while, sorry you can’t afford it

Hf employees more us citizens than snap on

They don’t make them like they use to 😂

@@rosinsautofab1956 I'm afraid not lol
