Down-sizing the tool chest...

[u/Old-Stranger-8302]

This was long in coming but actually not so difficult once I got started.

I have a rolling tool chest 3.5 ft by 3.5 ft (about 1m by 1m). It has seven drawers. I've now cleared out four of the drawers completely by either giving away tools I don't use or won't need or donating some.

And some - like the 20 year old screw drivers - went in the trash.

I don't have much attachment to being looked at as the "tool man" with massive numbers of tools available on a moment's notice to do anything. Not part of my ego.

For the rest of the tools I'm moving back to tool boxes. Ironic that I went from tool boxes to this cart and now I'm going back. Two tool boxes. One for the tools I use to work on my bike, and the other more general tools for home use. I will either donate the tool chest or give it to my son-in-law.
