    Worked at Ford dealers for 40+ yrs & saw my share of crashes. Nobody would say anything at first but after we helped them get it upright there would be hell to pay. A good laugh for everyone.
     
  3. this might be interesting..I just revamped my enclosed trailer and screwed a lower section to the wall,and fastened the upper & lower togther..Then strapped it to the wall.
    wonder how many miles before it comes loose?

    Good idea to just simply attach a chain or a strong nylon strap from the upper box to the WALL. Might just save this from happening or some one getting seriously hurt or killed. My huge Snap on box at work could do damage if tipped over.Think I will secure it and the one at home after reading this.

    I have a fairly new Snap-On 26" 7-drawer roll cart that I wheel around my shop that I keep my main use tools in. It's ironic that I saw this thread now because two days ago I was putting tools away at the end of the day and I had too many drawers open at the same time. The box came my way and actually pushed me up against the car. I was able to tilt it back and no tools came out. Luckily nothing (including me) was hurt. I know better than this but was just careless. Be careful out there folks.

    Kinda like flying an airplane with retractable landing gear....it's not if your going to land belly up, just a matter of when....:eek:
    Now you are done...good luck, and I agree, it will most likely be better organized as cleaner when you get it all back together...
    Cheers...
