Harbor Freight 30' 5 Drawer Tool Cart Tour!!

Tools I use:

I am in no way sponsored by Milwaukee, I am just a huge fan of their tools. It really helps this channel by purchasing through the product links I provide, thank you.

In this video I take you on a tour of my Harbor Freight U.S. General 30" 5 Drawer tool cart! I also review some of the tool kits that I use almost every time I'm working on my vehicles or other projects that I have going on. I think that this is a really great setup and it works great for me!

“There’s a few times where you’ll need 12 point... especially for like 12 point bolts” had me rolling 🤣

Dont even think about it, just do it the M12 lineup is incredible the 3/8 stubby and I'd go with the first gen ratchet they have a smaller head, have had mine for years with no issues.nice set up

About a decade ago, Eastwood was clearing out 1/4 and 3/8 Gearwrech 6-point master sets. I bought both along with a 12-point 3/8. Worked out great. Still use them with no plans to change. They were selling 60 tooth ratchets then. I'd picked up a 120XP last year. For the life of me, I can't really tell a difference in practice. Would like to check out their new 90 tooth ratchets. Supposed to be pretty strong, though I've yet to break a GW ratchet. I'm not a heavy duty user, that being said.

1/4 m12 fuel ratchet and a 1/2 m12 stubby impact are probably my most used tools. Can’t recommend them enough

[BigFrogsx]

Take 2 of those magnetic strips you have on the cart lid and bolt them to your fold up tray. You can place your nuts and bolts while taking things apart on the strips. No messing with magnetic trays.

Great setup... you have most everything you'll need for most projects, and the best part is you can roll it right up to what you're working on. Thanks for sharing

Got my first real “mechanic” job so now going through my cheap tool kits makes me realize how much I’m actually missing. First thing I bought off the truck was a 1/2” and 3/8” Milwaukee combo impact set and I can break lug nuts all day long with the 1/2”. Looking forward to using the 3/8 more. I would love to get a smaller handle electric ratchet as well.

Basically going to buy the same cart you have, and I realize I need to basically invest in some decent ratchets since all I have is homeowner grade craftsman kits I keep in my truck. Buying tools is so exciting, yet bittersweet on the wallet, even if you’re taking the budget route!

I ended up keeping my tool cart stationary and also added the side shelf and I store my power tools and extra sockets. I have filled the top with chrome and impact 1/4 to 1/2" complete metric and I am trying now to get a complete SAE set. I only have a complete 1/4's SAE right now. I know I prob do not need that all but like most guys I just want them. LOL Thanks for sharing your setup.
I just started buying Milwaukee power tools this year and I have bought a lot. I really like the M12 line but I do have 2 M18. If you are going to spend the money on a M12 high speed ratchet, check out the M12 insider ratchet. It is not cheap but it comes with a set of metric sockets, 1/4, 3/8, and a hex anvil and you can buy the 1/2" anvil for $10 so you have all 3 sizes in one ratchet and it is 350 RPM which is 50 RMP slower then the high-speed M12 but it has more power. I recently purchased one I am very very happy with it. I would suggest checking it out.

I use the crap out of my Milwaukee tools. I have the 1\4 " drive long neck ratchet, the m12 surge, 3\8 stubby and those are used daily. I do small engine.

[HoosierDaddy_]

Nicely done! For automotive work, I find using the 1/4" baby impact drivers doesn't work in a lot of situations due to their size. The cordless ratchets are much better for most auto/light truck work. The Milwaukee m12 line has some good options, I believe. I have this same cart and have customized it for my needs and couldn't be happier.

[lazerbeam]

I have the same cart with the side tray and my wife liked it so much she had me buy her one as well. Love the cart, unfortunately I'm running out of space and had to shift some of the tools I don't use too often over to my wife's cart.

[tonymaiettasr.]

Nice tour. Bought that exact blue cart for my son-in-law for Christmas. Now we have to fill it up with quality tools to replace the old broken down junk he has. Good ideas. Thanks

[tonybarnhill]

I have the same tekton 1/2 inch drive set with the 90 tooth ratchet .Also have the 3/8 drive set that goes from 6 to 24 mm

[jse]

Thanks, was winder about a box like this and now i see its perfect to move around the garage and definitely hold every. love the ground box idea, I will definitely use one.

[jamescampbell]

Brother I am digging all the Dodges setting in the background. Thanks for the cart tour, I like the setup.

[russellpottenger]

Thanks for sharing your toolbox tour.
Pro tip suggestion is to get the Gearwrench mid length sockets in 1/4 and 3/8.
Super cheap if you keep an eye on Amazon. I’ve gotten them for 40% off.
You’ll find in a lot of cases a mid length will be a good complementary to your socket set.

[Shadowfdath]

You have WAY too many duplicates of stuff, so this kinda versatility could be had so much cheaper too

[doglife]

I like those gearwrench sets! Can still pick them up and take them somewhere if needed!

[jonathanatlas]

Very well thought-out cart. You have what you need and nothing you don't. If you're gonna invest in the M18 impact you might want to look at some impact sockets also. Great idea on the ground box. It is so annoying having to get out from under a vehicle to get a tool. I'm gonna use that idea !!

[coney]

Those tool boxes are now $269.99. I think I paid $199.99 during one of their parking lot sales. That was only last year. Crazy. Great box though.
