Default RE: Question about a field box

I bought big plastic tool box from Wallmart for $10.00. I mounted in a 12 volt 7 AH gell cell battery, a 40 oz. fuel tank and an electric fuel pump. I mounted the control panel in the front of the box and cut out notches in the removable top shelf so that my starter would sit in there nicely until needed. The outer top section has its own clear lid with various sizes shallow square shaped compartments that I use for spare glow plugs, wheel collars ect. If I was to do it again I would probably put in a larger fuel tank. Other than that the box is fuel proof and is still working well after 5 years. For $10.00 I can't complain. Its sturdy, still looks like new, never cracks or needs painting.[8D]
