Damn box is so big it needs and engine. 325 HP, Allison auto, weighs in at 26,000 lbs. Comes complete with a 10,000 lb crane, welded and even a microwave. Doubles as an office and breakroom.

Also pictured for no extra charge is one of the most expensive things I have driven as well. CAT D11 $1.5 M +

I grew up on Cats. From the time I could remember (and pics before) I was riding an old D6 with Dad or my Great Grandpa. Still miss the ROAR coming from that strait piped Cat. More than anything....I miss the smell of fresh dirt and diesel smoke.

Give anything to plant my ass in the seat of that D11 for a day. drool

Sorry for the derail....Memories....Wife prolly wants to tell me to STFU every time I see a dozer. ;D
 
Dude I get it. I'm n the grading business.
The smell of fresh dirt is almost like sex ....
Almost. I can watch dirt bn moved all day long.
 
Ran a 950g laying stone and road grading for 8 years, sometimes I do miss the simplicity of that job.

Bought the bottom box at the end of last year and added the top hutch a month ago. I don't know how I ever got along in the small box I used to have. Expensive, but worth every penny when you use one everyday. I've known my Mac guy for a decade and he has always treated me right. :dblthumb:

Sweet ass box man, who is your Macman? I have been in the business for 16 years. Maybe I know them.

Thanks, I been trying to get the wife to pose in the hutch in a bikini, she's not buying into it though... laughing1

My Mac man is Craig Giattina in Birmingham.

I have no dog in this hunt because I have a cheap Waterloo, but I am pretty tight with my Mac Man, him and I go back about 25 years, ever here of Ken Pankopp, Atlanta Ga. ?

Hell I had a stainless Waterloo before all the cheap shitty Sams and Lowes stainless boxes came out, I bought it in 2001? It was the first stainless box I had ever seen and still looked decent after years of wrenching out of it. That box was awesome and worth twice what I paid for it, I traded it in on the Mac box and got twice what I paid for it. thumb.gif Waterloo used to make boxes for Matco and Snap on, or so I was told...
 
I searched for a used high-end box for a while, but everyone around here selling Snap-on or similar was looking for near new prices. Picked this up instead and I'm very pleased with it so far

Being that I survived for 8 years with this box, the HF 44" was a big step up. I also managed to sell this Craftsman box for not much less than it cost all those years ago.
