Where do you keep your tools.
« on: November 12, 2006, 16:34:18 »
Right Guys and Gals. I have an early 110, and have lots of moneys worth of Expensive tools. I want to get a toolbox that will fit nicely into the footwell on the passenger side. I went to Halfrauds this afternoon, and they have just the ticket. Only thing is its very tinny. I think it will be ok, but wondered where and how you store yours.

Cheers Wayne. :D

In a tool roll under the drivers seat.That box is locked though.

My good tools are in my garage where they are needed most.

I keep my expensive tools in my room under my bed (next to the dirty landrover mags) and the emergency kit is in the lockable box in the boot.

Under drivers seat, jack and handle, under passenger seat, the essentials (Duct tape, WD40, 13MM and 12MM spanner and a screwdriver)

What else does a Zook need?
I must confess the the activities of the UK governments for the past couple of years have been watched with frank admiration and amazement by Lord Vetinari. Outright theft as a policy had never occured to him.
