For a DIY project that’s gonna pay dividends in saved time and steps not running to a battery bank 10-25 feet away for a fresh pack, you certainly had a reasonable incentive to do this mod. This is the more reasonable alternative than outright purchase of a new box, and you did an excellent job in getting it all square and cut. Forgive me for saying so, but your drawer inserts are divine!~

I'm over in the UK. We don't get the power drawers or the power tops over here due to being 240v and our CE Standards not signing off on it. So we are already on the back foot! I've got around it by utilising one of the holes that are in the underneath of the toolbox and running the power lead up and securing it to the back of the box with millions of sticky pads and zip ties through them. This makes sure the power lead doesn't come away from the back of the box and catch on the drawers. It's a pretty clean install and means I don't have to cut into my 84". You're a brave man for cutting into yours!! You not thought of adding a touch of paint to the freshly cut edges to stop them from rusting!?
@robertl6064 жыл бұрын
I installed a power draw in my 84" Epic Yesterday. I used your parts list and it went well. I must say that first cut is stressful. Its a matter of getting the courage to take a cut off wheel to your tool box. But as you say this is not a hard project. Just take your time and its fine. Its very simple metal work. Something I did that I did not see in your video (but I am sure you did and I may have missed) was to buy a bottle of color matched touch up paint from my Snap-on dealer to paint the exposed metal before finally assembly. I wanted to stop future rust and it makes the cuts look factory. I wish I could post a picture of how mine came out. Like you I am glad I did it. Thanks very much for making this video.

He can order them. I gave the list to my snapon dealer and he order them through the Rock and Roll cab truck. I had them shipped to my snapon dealer and paid for them in the truck. I don't see why he won't order them. Its money in his pocket. It did take 4 months to get the parts. Like everything for snapon tool boxes. I would try a different dealer or reach out to the Corporate Rocking Roll Cab truck yourself. Tell them to order them as replacement parts. It's not cheap like all things snapon.

Nice job but is another way with no need of snapon power drawer parts. I done a few power drawer style mods on snapon and matco boxes, parts and material around $100 to $150 pending exactly what want in terms of sockets surge protection usb outlets etc You even don't need cut side of the drawer just hole in the back. Basically use likes of igus cable link track and make guide trough U piece from alloy or stainless, I used brushed alloy, either tig mounting points on or plan bend formed tabs at ends when doing template cut and brake forming it (can also buy guide troughs if want) Ones I done had cable exit back and top side as sent into a socket strip side mounted with usb ports as most want that feature added plus made easy hookup/hide cable exit point . Works as good as snappy one, only advantage with cutting side of drawer is better space usage but it minimal . I actually don't like power drawers as prefer batteries charging in open environment for better cooling so I have a charge shelf on end, adding fan with some sensor control could be an idea in warmer climates. security factor of all in drawer is good though and can see why guys as employees in a shop like it as save batteries going for a walk or an exchange lol. Sweet job and the 68 epic is a damn nice box .

Great job, it came out looking like factory installed but a Toolbox is for tool storage. Snap-On is nice but way over priced for the quality. You paid $15 k for that Epic roll cab but then had to spend more money to install a power draw. I sold my KR 555 & KR 550 Toolbox that was in New condition and bought a Husky HD rollcab with a butcher block top, a bottle opener, soft closing drawers (N/A on Epic) and a power strip w / USB to charge all my power tools for under a $1,000 and put money in my pocket from the Snap-On sale.

Paint on bare metal will eventually lift,flake,peel and moisture will also get through the paint...but NOT if you put EPOXY down first. Epoxy primer bonds to steel and aluminum and paint bonds to EPOXY primer. Just a tip for ya bro,...lots of money we have invested...definately want to protect it. Russ

Hello Joel, Thank you for sharing your power drawer conversation with us. Looks very professionally done. Excellent job! Some people are bitching about you paying a little over $500 for all the right parts when you could have found someone to make your bent metal parts for you. But why. There just looking for a reason to heat on Snap-on. For the total cost of the parts from Snap-on, the knowledge that they will all fit & work properly & the convenience, why not buy them from Snap-on. Maybe if you were a metal fabricator then build it yourself. I know the slightly sick feeling when you start making that first cut. LOL Thanks for sharing your power drawer conversation with us.

I also have the matching 65" 13 drawer workstation and it also came with a big, deep power drawer with 4 plugs and 2 USB ports in the drawer and a second power strip on the side of the box at the top with four outlets and 2 USB ports.
