Title: Wanted : Old style Halfords 150 piece - BOX ONLY
Post by: Jimbob on 15 July 2014, 16:54:46

After a small accident, I could do with a replacement empty Halfords 150 piece box as mine is in 2 halves.

Anyone bought one and decanted tools to somewhere else etc?

There are 3 variants of the 150pc set. The current one, the old one, and the really old one.

Sure I saw a brand new really old one being sold somewhere. Might have been egay?

And buy the bits to fill it up (though remember that the 200pc one is only £120 on trade)

Ive got the older type, can take a photo of it tomorrow if that helps, but will be full tools though. Think the main difference will be where that little red box of bits live, which is absent in mine. ;)

looking at it again, I may be able to replace the hinge with some piano hinge, glued and self tapped..

Anyone tried?
