I remember back when I started in this trade 35 years ago when a machinist had to have all his own tools. Everybody had to prove they were not a fly by night and they were serious about being a skilled tradesman they had to have the best tools like starrett and if you had high dollar tools you had to have a high dollar tool box Gerstner was what everyone had to have. Usually when an old timer retired you buy the box used, I do not ever remember anyone buying one new. And used people wanted 3 times what a new kennedy cost. I have a friend that has his father's tool box and I have never seen one in like new condition like this one So I thought posting some pictures may interest
some people
