Pick up trucks are made for carrying stuff, but if you just throw your tools in the back, you're asking for trouble. They're going to be all over the bed of your truck. They're exposed to the elements, where rain, they're going to rust and so forth. That's why serious DIYers need a truck toolbox. And Owens products makes a cool one. A toolbox is a toolbox. Everybody uses it for tools, but not only is this usable, but it also has style. The Owens Extreme toolbox gets its style from a unique lid design. The oval style lid creates lots of strength. The push button operation allows for secure lockability of all your tools, and you can open it with one hand, keeping the other hand free for putting tools in and out of the toolbox. And it looks good too. It'stylish, even though it's a contractor series. I can still drive this to the grocery store. My wife can take it to the antique store. It looks wonderful. The Owens toolboxes are made to order at the company's manufacturing center in Sturgis, Michigan. It all starts with four by eight sheets of diamond-treaded al Why al Because it's better for the elements. The al Step one is fabrication. The al This is a turret press. Right now it's punching out the body and ends to the extreme toolbox. Once the parts are cut out, it's on to the hemming machine to remove the sharp edges. And what that does, it takes and folds this part completely in half and flattens it back out. That way it has a nice smooth edge and eliminates any sharpness at all to the part. So now the pieces are smooth but flat. They still need to be formed in the hydraulic press. We're using approximately 40 ton of pressure right now to form these parts. There's going to be approximately 14 parts total that will be formed in this press to make all the components to the extreme toolbox. During the welding and assembly process, the toolbox is patented curved lid is formed. It's one of the things that makes the Owens toolbox gr It's very rugged. There's no other lid on the market In fact, there won't be. We're the only makers of that lid. You may have noticed there's a lot of hands-on work that goes into an Owens toolbox. It's not an assembly process. It's an individual that builds this box. That toolbox has my name on it. That's who I am. So we're going to build a good quality toolbox. When it's complete, the Extreme Truck Toolbox is downright cavernous. It's extra wide and deep. It has a lot of storage, Even though it's big, the Owens Extreme Toolbox has a low profile. That's important when you're driving. You can see over the toolbox it doesn't sit too high and allows me to see the product in the back of the truck if necessary and the people and vehicles behind me. The box is coming three sizes to fit different trucks, but they all got plenty of room. I use it from everything from my briefcase to my tool belt to my chainsaws and to my golf clubs.
