    Love your work! Glad to see some Aussie made products, #AustralianMade.
    They look great! When/where will be the Aussie launch?

    Met these guys yesterday and hung out with them for a while. These cabinets are awesome, my buddy will be ordering some for his garage. Nice people to talk to.

  5. I just saw these cabinets up close at GNRS. They are indeed drop-dead gorgeous.
     
  6. Aaaah! The stuff my lottery dreams are made of!
     
  7. I've got friends that would buy and display them in their shops. My shop is too much of a working, dirty, dusty shop for something anywhere that nice. It would look nice in trophy shops though.

  8. Absolutely beautiful.
    I think anyone who has bought a decent snap-on box will agree that the price is very reasonable.

    Thanks, but built to last and to pound on.
    It’s a fine line to walk, do we make a cheaper item using cheaper materials and unskilled labour, present an inferior product, or make them like we do. As I’ve mentioned before original units go for ridiculous money, I think ours stacks up.

    I agree, totally. And, I think you will find an accepting, although limited market for them. They are absolutely beautiful, but would stick out like a sore thumb in my shop.. I think it would take an exceptionally tolerant and understanding wife who would think that would be a good idea for a bedroom headboard, though.

    Great job Thomo..anything that can break into the US market that doesn't come from China is a great achievement..looks like an exceptional product at a reasonable price....

    Small update fellas, we are going well, been a great response so far and the GNRS was a blast. We’ve been working on a new wall tool chest. Doing pre orders. What’s your thoughts.

    I'm bumping this up. How about an update as to dealers in the US, current pricing (which seems all but a secret), new products...

    Thanks for the bump!! As we all know it’s been a tough time over the last 12 months, this also effected us with manufacturing and supply chain issues. Australia ended up pretty lucky though so everything is back on track and rolling again.
    We are still looking for a dealer(s) stateside with a passion for our cabinets and knowledge of the automotive aftermarket.

    Regarding pricing, our customers are located in North America, Europe and of course Australia, with conversion rates changing all the time and transport costs fluctuating we generally quote on a as required basis. Definitely no secret.

    As guide though we have been able to reduce our cost on the deluxe to $5100 usd plus shipping.

    Hopefully this has answered some questions.

    Yes, indeed it did. There's a little smoke coming out of my ears, a good thing...
