Thread: 30 y/o Sidchrome tool cabinet info?

I sent it back to Sidchrome and they didn’t / wouldn’t sell service parts for it, as they don’t deal with them anymore.

Here its...

Could it be missing Circlip pliers from the top row.

That catalogue list is from a 15 y/o Blackwoods catalogue - if you can find a 30 y/o you are in business. I doubt the spanners etc would change much - it would be the pliers etc that will be different.

The Spanners and Sockets and associated Ratchets etc are of a different design to when they were made in australia.

Here are the photos as promised. They are all over the place also. Well used for the last 30 years

I picked up a tension wrench like that one 20+ years ago for $20 at a garage sale, could not believe my luck at the time as they where worth $180 plus back then.
I still have it and look after it well.
