Wall cabinets
Time to get organized. I can no longer find the tops of my benches for all the crap I have piled on them. Anyone have a favorite wall cabinet? I have been searching Lowes and Home Depot so far. Expect to invest a pretty good bit as I want to do it right.

Are you looking for or at those "systems" designed more for the casual garage instead of the professional level stuff?
Always on the look out for Snap On, Matco, Cornwell or older Mac side boxes and tend to notice a lot of the 12-14" deep wall cabs. Some with solid doors, some with view able openings covered with Lexan---most not too crazy priced and in good condition too.
If you have crazy money look at the Lista brand----they're top quality and priced that way too.

I hate to say pawn shops after participating in the tool branding thread.
But people are desperate and will sell off anything that isn't making them money.
Myself, I'm a finish carpenter/installer/millworker.
I took a set of quality kitchen cabinets that were being ripped out and removed the raised panels from the back, painted them and then replaced the panels with Lexan.
The price was right!
Maybe you have a Habitat for Humanity ReStore near you?
