Taparia Tool Box

Star keys and a black tape

The 16 inch box

Today I received the Taparia tool box from Amazon. Costs Rs 750 for size 16 inches. There are other smaller and larger options. But I guessed this would serve my purpose. And it does serve my purpose quite well. I managed to fit all my essential tools and some of the infrequently used ones as well. 

There are four chambers on the top for very small items. They recommend keeping nails and screws and other such small hardware. The main box has two chambers. Shallow on top like a tray and a deep one below. I have kept the bare essentials on the tray. The heavier tools are in the main compartment.

That's the shallow tray on top of the box under the main lid. It sits above the deeper chamber. It is more or less adequate for the most frequently used kind of tools and accessories. But it has a problem. There is a handle in the middle that you can hold to pull it out. When you do that, the back of the fingers rub against the slit plastic, which is very sharp. It really hurts and if one is not careful  enough, one might end up with a few bruised fingers.
