Akro-Mils 09514 CFT 14-Inch Plastic Art Supply Craft Storage Tool Box, Semi-Clear

I bought this to hold scalpels, tweezers and small model making tools. It's robust for its size but you have to bear this in mind - heavy, bulky items would be better in a larger tool box.

cool box, its just the right size to store my smaller sized buffing pads and a few other detailing items, Im happy with it and the price was right, no big deal for me, but the clasp lock was loose in the box, I just had to snap it into place, not sure of theyre shipped like that or it slipped out during transport, no big deal as its so easy to put back it comes with a lift out tray, I wont use it for my items, but it will come in handy for organizing smaller items , it feels more sturdy once its locked , good job on this buy!

Sturdy and good quality. The handle is a good size and comfortable. Great stuff.

Love it! This case fits all my sewing notions and has room for more. The top tray fits my threads, and the bottom area fits everything else. It has a good quality latch to close it, the plastic doesn't feel cheep or flimsy, and the handle feels nice when carried. Lovely product!

Bought as a toolbox to house a bunch of extra drill bits, drivers, socket bits and so on. Essentially, a bunch of extra stuff that aren’t part of my usual daily bag . As such it’s a garage box that’s still mobile and see-through, not a “get-beat-up-everyday” box. Pros Very good hinges (can never say enough about this with plastic boxes) Durable (within reason) Somewhat see-through Cons None for me Inner dimensions below. (variances are accounting for inner molding as seen in pics): Length at bottom: 12.5 - 12.75” Length at top: 12.75 - 13.75” If specifics are a concern, assume 12.5” for entire inner lower-box. Depth at bottom: 5.5-6.25” If specifics are a concern, assume 5.5” for entire inner lower-box. Height (Not exactly straight forward when getting to the lid area as this is where there would be uneven “mushing” space) Inner Lower-box: 5 11/16” or 5.6875” Inner Lid: 1 - 1 11/16 or 1.6875” Effectively, inner height is anywhere from 6.6875 - 7.366” Weight tolerances - It’s currently holding 14 lbs of tools very comfortably and without concern. - 25 lb dumbbell: it held, but lid very visibly strained. Would not move it around this way, probably not even store this weight. - 20 lb dumbbell: holds decently, but would not subject to a lot of wild movement or banging around. - Anything sub 18 lbs should not be of any concern at all, even if moved aggressively. (This is not to say being tossed over a tailgate into a truck.) As a lightweight, see-through (sort of), fast-grab box, this works well for what I needed. Great hinges. Hope the measurements help.

This 'craft' box from Akro-Mils is a quality product. It has a nice heavy plastic that seems to be durable and is well formed with clean edges. It has a large and comfortable handle, and unlike some other similar cases, it has a heavy duty metal latch. The case itself has a deep profile, and the insert tray rests on a ledge above the case's main contents. I use it to keep the power cord and speed pedal of my sewing machine (in the bottom of the case), with the other odds and ends (scissors, thread, needles, tape measure, etc) in the compartments of the insert tray. I plan to get a couple more for keeping other related items together in my shop. One should do nicely for the bits and pieces of my torch and MIG welder, another for some lathe tools, bits, etc. Many folks would use a 'tackle box' for similar purposes, but those tend to have too many little compartments and not enough larger open space. This case would be a good alternative to tackle boxes for many applications. This case would also work well as a small tool box for the trunk of a car, or any other set of tools kept apart from your normal workspace.
