lujanit Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 I have looked at the usual places (Homepro etc) and online (Lazada etc) yet cannot find this toolbox or similar. Does anyone know where I can buy one in BKK? TIA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yellowtail Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 Most of the tool chests you can buy here are junk. Make sure you check the weight and material thickness. If you have the dough, Snap-On makes a great chest. Mine from the the '70s has been moved from state to state and country to county and is still going strong. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toosetinmyways Posted April 11, 2021 Share Posted April 11, 2021 Central World Bangkok. They had genuine Snap On chests among lots of imported. Shop is located on a high floor number. Bring your gold amex card. Always wondered who they cater for. Can't see a Thai who can afford a 2.5 tonne floor jack for 35000 baht doing there own maintenance.

I did all my own washing, waxing and maintenance until I got a company car. The are expensing, but Snap-On are great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a great find and not too far from home. Looks like they have everything you could want in tools. No prices on the website though. Again this site didn’t come up when I searched. Maybe my VPN is interfering with results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VocalNeal Posted April 11, 2021 Share Posted April 11, 2021 I would pay a visit to Veerasiam Tools on Soi71 (Soi Pridi) at about sub soi 43 opposite the Esso. Not only will they probably have that type of box but having been there you will never have to post a where can I buy tools question again. Except maybe where can i buy cheaper tools! PS they usually have a cheaper option to what they show you. Which may come from their sister shop next door but one. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its best to use as many variables for the item as you can think of to find things. The most obvious does not always work. I used "tool cabinet" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yellowtail Posted April 11, 2021 Share Posted April 11, 2021 If you can wait until November the Metalex show always has a lot of good tool and tool storage suppliers. METALEX | Event on Machine Tools & Metalworking Solution I would not buy a tool chest or roll-cab that I was not able to actually see and touch unless I knew the brand.

Yellowtail Posted April 11, 2021 Share Posted April 11, 2021 They have the same box I have had since the '70s.... Factory Gear They want $3,265 for it, it lists for $1,405 in the US and I bought mine at a pawn shop for $150... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kamalabob2 Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 Yellowtail hit the nail on the head when it comes to SOME imported brands of tools. If money is consideration, check out Pumpkin brand or the house brands at Global and Thaiwatsadu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, I have been using this shop for many years, quality gear and reasonable pricing. Owner is very friendly and knowledgeable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
