The change is quite drastic with the new top! I love it!!!
My next project is to add LED strips under each drawer handles. I'm between red, orange or white, to create some sort of Tron toolbox. What do you think? Impossible project or not?

This is the coolest toolbox I've ever seen. Your co-workers must be getting angrier and angrier. Do the LED's, they'll get really pissed off.

They are, it just doesn't stop. They keep saying that it will get damaged. I'm thinking about the LED setup in my head. All I need to do is to get the wires down to one big rechargeble battery...which means removing all the drawers...which is quite a PITA. The easier way would be putting LED strips with separate batteries on each drawers. But that would be down right ridiculous.

I assume the more "ridiculous" the better. I'd get it as flashy/expensive-looking as possible, it'll be hilarious.

I just don't want them to start causing damage intentionally. One of the guys threw a heavy bolt near it and kept telling stuff like I could not afford it. He was surprised when I told him that it's costing me 51$ per week only. Some other guy started slamming my drawers saying that snap-on built them to be opened and closed this way for like 20000 times. I'm like "Dude! I don't care stop doing this shit or i'll fuck you up". Seriously getting on my nerves.

Depends on what job that you're doing. A job like mine pays well so I can afford it and I got all the tools I need to fill it. On your case...what were you doing again?

here is an idea. the handles are metal right? rig some form of electrocution (not a fatal one) so that when they start fucking with your shit again, its going to hurt.

It felt more like hard durable plastic than metal.With everything painted there, it gonna be a bit hard to get a shock, except for the working surface.

The nightmare of figuring out how to get the wiring to the handles doesn't sound fun to me. . . But nice looking box. Make sure it is insured with your shops insurance plan and see what they cover. Hopefully the people you work with aren't spiteful assholes that will try to damage your box intentionally.

Some of them are and don't have the balls to say "Sry it was me, i'll pay for the damage." Others report on them instead to the guy who's toolbox got damaged. They tend to be jealous at me for having nice things that looks expensive to theirs eyes but isn't at all when you look at the prices properly. They think I don't deserve it because I don't do stuff like brakes, wheel bearings and such, don't get dirty as much as them or take my time to repair the truck properly. Hell to them, they always come after me when they need help for anything computer related, I shall ignore them. We don't have insurance at work for toolboxes sadly...

That sucks about the insurance. The shop I worked in our tools were covered under the shops insurance plan in case there was ever a fire or theft or what have you. It is kind of weird when you are the young guy working with a bunch of old guys that are set in their ways and don't bother to change with the world. The way vehicles are changing guys need to be more tech savy, it might not be there in the world of heavy duty trucks but it will get there.

It's already there, trust me. With everything we have in the new trucks, you definitely need a computer to check everything and see the problem. At our shop, the issue is that we don't do much that requires work to be precise like for exemple adjusting stuff. This was my forte at school. Tell me to adjust valves, clutches, diffs, brakes and more and I would get it perfectly at the first shot. Rebuilding a engine also...but tell me to do this now and I'd be scared. I got used to the shop's unchallenging slow paced jobs. When I did my internship elsewhere, I found out how good I was. I was solving the issues with my ideas and they loved them, I was brilliant to them. Back at work, my ideas sucks and their ideas are the best, the thing they forget is that everyone has different ways to fix stuff. Ok...i'll stop because I need to leave this job ASAP.
