It looks like that box is doing the job you wanted it for. Nice job on the handle and good work on the paint.
Thank you.
And yes this box is proving to be everything I wanted.

I was servicing an Abu Garcia Ambassadeur 5500 baitcaster yesterday and this box worked out great, the top makes an excellent parts tray for things like this.

Does the box have a part number? That is cool.

I have a KRA-21 hand box and that looks like its baby brother.

I don't believe so but I don't really know where to look.

I will say that the cheesy flimsy decorative top handle that I took off is actually made in Taiwan,
I have no way of knowing if it's just the handle or the whole box though.

Got the SAE's the metric deeps and the spinner handle in.
The SAE's do come with the rail which is cool though I'll have to find another use for 'em, strange that it's never pictured or listed.

I was hoping the spinner handle would have the femal drive in the handle but I can live without it.



Now I'm just waiting for the SAE deeps, 2" extension,  and universal.

My KRA-21 is stamped on the bottom i think.

Okay,  I've looked again and it's not stamped.

Theres not a ton of information to be found about these and certainly no reports of a model number on them.
All I really find is listings and postings on forums from people looking to ID the box, no mention of a model number found on it anywhere.

I have the box as well and can't find a number. Probably because it was never sold as a box it was sold as part of a gaming set and the box was part of the set. I doubt SO even made the box I think it was made by whoever makes the micro tool boxes - the two seem to share some hallmarks especially in the drawers.
People who confuse etymology and entomology bug me in ways I can’t put into words.

That's my suspicion as well, especially after seeing TAIWAN on the bottom of that handle I took off the top.
