To be honest, and as someone who has been "on the spanners" for many years, I would not touch a cantilever box! They never shut first time, the tool you want is always hidden at the bottom, and some times they can self empty, if only one side is extended! The modern chests with shallow drawers are a great improvement.
Fair points but modern chests aren't without their disadvantages. Chests are great in the workshop or doorway of a van, but I still use a cantilever box for the mobile set of tools which get carried round the yard, chucked in any truck or at this moment fitted neatly in the combines tool locker.To be honest, and as someone who has been "on the spanners" for many years, I would not touch a cantilever box!

I need a good quality cantilever tool box,can anyone suggest a good make. Quality of build and durability more important than price ,as long as I am not just paying for the name
