[QUOTE="RedVenom48, post: 16350373, member: 166576"] According to the article, they use US steel rolls, stamp and poweder coat all in house. At least, as of 2018. Still have all my Snap On, Matco tools and Dewalt power tools. I certainly remember Sear's heady days with Made in USA Craftsman hand tools. If Stanley's new tool factory brings that back, Craftsman is back on the list. They are a well constructed box, no doubt. Plans changed for me when I talked to my new supervisor. Going to be doing mostly electronic installation, no heavy repair so I need a box to keep (store) my non-used tools in. Ive got a line on a Matco Deluxe cart that will store all my soon to be "daily use" tools. Since the main box wont be accessed near as often as my cart, I dont need heavy duty. USA craftsman fits the bill. I suppose in time I might save for a used Snap-On KRL or Matco 4 series, but Ive got nothing against the Series 2 US Generals. For a home garage, they are good for the money. Depending on how much space you have in your garage, they have a sweet Tool Cabinet/Hutch/Locker combo: [URL='https://www.homedepot.com/p/Husky-Heavy-Duty-80-in-W-10-Drawer-Deep-Combination-Tool-Chest-and-Rolling-Cabinet-Set-in-Matte-Black-3-Piece-HOTC8010BB1S/304589169']Husky Heavy-Duty 80 in.
