Ultimate Toolbox Organization and Setup! - Harbor Freight (U.S. General) 5 Drawer Tool Cart

Check out my custom Go Kart designs I have for sale on my Etsy store!

I wanted to put together a quick follow-up video about my Harbor Freight 5 Drawer Tool Cart that goes over how I'm organizing all of the tools in my setup! I love a clean tool setup, and it seems this is a pretty popular item from Harbor Freight so I'm sure there's people out there looking for a cool way to organize their tools in their box! This is definitely a more budget-oriented setup, so it's perfect for the weekend wrenched or anyone on a budget!

Thanks for the tour! I’m just getting started with tools and am not a mechanic just a home owner weekend fixit guy, so I’ve picked up some of the Quinn line and find them to be great so far. I love the 5 drawer cart for $200 I think it’s an awesome product. Harbor Freight is great for the weekend warrior and hobbyist.

I'm a full time mechanic and my tool box looks like this! Love the organization man!

Well done sir! You’ve made me rethink my tool cart purchase. I just preordered a bigger US General tool cart set up from Harbor Freight. I’m going back to cancel that preorder and get the one you have and set it up the same way. You’re garage looks spectacular.

That’s a nice set up. I personally changed my tool boxes into plumbing, electrical, mechanical, and wood working boxes. Had so many tools it really needed the organization.

The magnetic pickup tool is a lifesaver!

I love seeing videos like this of people making the absolute most of what they can with what they have.

Thanks for the tour..I just ordered the Canadian version of this cart. We have Princess Auto the Canadian version of Harbor freight. I have so many tools for different situations..now I will be able to keep my automotive and small engine repair tools separate from my electrical, plumbing and wood working tools.

Cool. I use one dollar entry floor mats from the dollar store to make drawer liners. They work great. I have a ten drawer craftsman top box (c. 1980) that I got for $40 at estate sale. I collect and restore vintage hand tools so my box is a mix of old and new.

Great Toolbox for the money! I tool the wheels and top off mine and made it a custom tool box for my enclosed trailer. Works great for the landscape business and it didn't break the bank!

Drill a hole in those socket organizers and put a scre win the middle to hold them down in the middle.

The days of harbor freight being junk are over and they have been for awhile now. I hate seeing the stigma behind hf

[Mr.Thermistor]

God that craftsman chain wrench brings back terrible memories from the army lol I've torn through many oil filters and have the oil dump all over me with that damn thing lol

Highly recommend adding the fold out shelf, especially if you ever move the box around the shop. I have my 5 drawer cart set up with detailing stuff and tools so I will roll it around our shop which I have found the shelf to be very handy to have. As I get more tools i will probably pick up a smaller cart for my detailing stuff.

I'm stealing this whole setup family.

Looks really good actually. Nice budget box. Has pretty much everything ys need.

[andrewrpena]

Perfect DIY tool box setup. Thanks for sharing! 🙏🏾

[billlaughlin]

Thanks for the tour. I’m going to set mine up like that and buy some more tools

[DylanCyr]

I like the idea of moving the shelf lower on the cart, never thought about that

I just switched from those blue socket organizers to the labeled ones with the poles sticking up. Although they take up more room in the box they make a big difference in quality and feel.

Good job with video.. seems like something every guy should have....I'm a master mechanic and got 100k worth of tools but sure can do 80%of stuff with that and u ready bro
