Title: Stickers on the toolbox
Post by: wantedabiggergarage on February 21, 2023, 09:13:51 PM
Do you or don't you prefer them?

I debated about this years ago, but one sticker I was given, could have lead to a bunch of legal trouble.  I am not sure if it still could or not, really.

Stickers all the way for me.

When I was MUCH younger I was a no sticker guy. But as I've aged, stickers have adhered themselves on all sides.

Wanted, what sticker could have gotten you in legal trouble?

I have seen some great stickers on tool boxes.  One of my favorites was, Finish your beer, there are sober kids in India :))

On older boxes its great to see stickers from 30 years ago.  Some old brands and old places that evoke good memories.

On newer boxes, I tend to remove them before selling.  Older boxes they stay put.

It's a military sticker, for a device I think we signed a treaty and no longer use, but am unsure of that or the consequences of having it.

It's an official sticker for a device you think maybe you're not supposed to have , or just a sticker referencing the item ?

I never made a strong effort to add stickers to my boxes in the past but that has changed.  Every so often I now go on ebay and buy a few vintage reproduction racing stickers like those found on the 1/4 mile cars back in the day.
Most are smaller than the original decal sizes but the graphic reproductions are spot on. One of these days when I get around to it I am going to go crazy and plaster them on everything out there!  :lol_hitting:

I put stickers on magnetic sheets, so I can take'em off if I get tired of'em.

Hard to resist the urge to stick stickers, they're made for sticking.  I put a lot on my lift.  Easy enough to remove them with heat gun and goo b gone if need be.

That is smart, I do the same thing with labels for my tool displays.  Every time I sell a box, I have to take the tools out and put in another box, pull the mag label off and put on new box.

My FIL actually saved it from the dumpster at his work years ago.
