Anybody familiar with the Kennedy machinist tool box??? Since the
gunsmithing shop closed few years ago I am getting rid of about everything. Planning on putting two of these on the for sale forum..
But where would I list them??? Under Cabinets???or everything else??

    Kennedy's are like an investment, they're made well and keep going up in price.

    How about under the 1911 section![;)]

    I've got three. They have been in use since 1974.

    I will watch and see how it does. Sold my roll around and stacker years ago. Still have the large top box and some mics, gages, and other goodies. Sitting dormant haven't been inside it for years. Brings back a lot of memories. No clue what it is worth.

    I have some also one day I am going to need to sell Lots of things I have 5 STAR reloaders for pistol ammo and most likely 40 or more powder bars to fit these machines i have some hand tools as well as power tools that have never been used but I purchased in the mid 1960's all my IBM tools ETC used on Key punch machines and all kinds of mechanical IBM machines even a 2 station offset printing press. It is just my nature growing up working on stuff and not having all the tools needed to do the repair.

    I use my kennedy tool boxes every day. I will be watching for your auction. Start them at a penny and you will not be disappointed . Take lots of pictures and list the model numbers if you can find them.

    I have 3 which are the top tray style. Store primarily big, heavy wrench sets in them and only pull them out when needed. Almost like new.
