The boxes

Four specimens, described plainly. All are welded, ground and painted in Tilburg, and all take a standard padlock inside a shroud.

1.1

Specimens

Specimen SO-120

The one most people buy. Fits a full set of power tools, a site radio and the extension leads nobody can find.

Specimen SO-160

The long one, for levels, ladders up to 1.5 m and the things that do not fit in the 120.

Specimen V90

Low and narrow, with four bolt holes in the floor so it goes through the van floor and stays with the van.

Specimen G130

Galvanised before it is painted, with vents under the lid, because lawnmowers sweat and bicycles rust.
