1. Make it a light box, like plastic (Rubbermaid makes good ones). You'll hate yourself if you have to lug a 24" 3-drawer Craftsman box full of tools up and down four flights of stairs (ask me how I know). My trick is to have several small boxes, each with any specialized tools for particular jobs in it. For example, one box has "cooling system tools"
and one has "body tools" instead of having all my screwdrivers in one box, ratchets in another, wrenches in another...
2. Don't try to duplicate that set of Snap-On tools you're leaving behind. Tools will walk away occasionally (I don't know how; if I knew that, I'd still have all my tools!!) so Craftsman are more than adequate. Don't go super-sh!++y cheap, either. Quality is still worth something.
3. Swap meets are great places to get used tools, or new tools that you expect to use only once. Chicago & Milwaukee have lots of swaps coming up, but realize that the new tools sold there are mostly GARBAGE.
Sorry if you already know most of this, but ya never know!!
