Am I the only one that owns a craftsmn tool kit that the "living hinge" on has split? They do not sell replacement cases, which is bull. I dont wanna separae the tools from the case, as it helps ensure that I leave the jobsite wih all of my tools accounted for.
I am hoping to use some plastic hinges and repair the toolcase. Drill and using hardware is not an option, as the case would become too flimsy, and there is no access to the backside of the screw holes to use nuts and washers.
One problem I have is finding an adhesive that bonds to HDPE. The only thing I have found costs an arm and a leg because it is industrial adhesive. I've tried Loctite 401, gorilla glue and a few other various adhesives.
The better toolkits have true hinges and do not suffer from this. Once your tools get thrown into a damn toolbox, they quickly disappear and you are going to buy individual sockets with the new stupid laser etched design, which costs around $1 more per socket, what a RIPOFFF!!
