New toolkit...New paint...

What better to do than a detail for the toolkit so the paint lasts eh! Hahaha I'm obsessed. Dan wanted me to post a thread because I was gonna wax the toolbox...so I did!
It arrived about 2pm today (from QLD, for only $35), after I ordered it at closing time two nights before.

(All phone pics cos my folks stole my camera)

Here's my fingerprints smeared all over it with dodo juice hard candy wax:

And after I organised all my tools and put it all in, this is how it looks

Shiny....

Water beads like mad too. Hehehehe.

Instead of polishing your "box" you should use the tools, they're WAY to clean thats disgusting..

lol

HAHAHA you're just jealous. They even came home from work in that condition!!

I want these to last so I'm going to try and take care of it all like I would if it was a car basically...not by polishing the box lol but cleaning and oiling the tools every now and then making sure they all work properly etc. It already holds immense sentimental value for me cos it represents the start of my serious career/hobby life, so naturally I want it to be nice when I first get it.

Oh, and remember this wasn't my idea. I'm blaming this all on you, Dan!
