An Aircraft Mechanics tool box
#23
I worked in cessna's experimental flight dept for a few years and we had snap-on boxes that had magnetic badge readers on them. You had to scan your badge to get the box open. They were pretty much the fanciest boxes i've seen with an actual usb port to hook a laptop up to it.We had about 25 of these things and I think they were about 30k fully loaded!!!!.....Yeah, WWAAAYYY TOO MUCH MONEY...........

just looking at your pic's and thinking, WOW!!! I just swapped the engines from a scrapped volvo truck to my volvo out in the yard at my shop(more room outside to move around),all my tools were on a little yard cart in a pile, trying to find stuff at the end of the swap was getting frustrating, but it got done in 3 days start to finish

AAAH!! How I miss the blue Foam, Over 20 years working on Air force and Navy jets on active duty, also Army Helicopters for Lear Siegler for a while as a Civilian. Just before I retired for the AF we were ordering tools from Mac and Snap on and they would laser cut the foam for us (yellow as base layer then blue on the top) it looked very nice, and laser etch the tools also.
I still have my Box, but most of the foam is long gone.
Nice set up, jet a fuel.

Kevin, smoking box!
I work at Boeing in Everett, WA, I see boxes like this and have one similar myself on a three wheeled bike as I am mobile all over the plant and Flightline. The blue foam comes in two densities, the type you have and a stiffer type. It resists grease, will in fact wash off like a counter top. I don't know where to tell you to get it as we reclaim it from shipping fixtures into the plant and reuse it.
Go Navy, Dad was an SB2C pilot, and we in the Marine corp appreciate the transportation you provide when we need to go deal with a situation that needs our special touch.
ooh ah Richard
