How to Find Toolbox Saloon Simulator
Written by Andrew Hammel
To get the toolbox in Saloon Simulator, speak with Earl during a regular shift, then search the upstairs hayloft in the stable. The toolbox is required to unlock new upgrades, and the quest becomes active after serving Earl a drink.
Here’s how to find the toolbox, when it appears, and how to trigger the follow-up event.
Step 1: Talk to Earl
Earl will visit your bar and request a drink. After serving him, he’ll mention needing a toolbox to build something important. This automatically starts the objective to find it.
Make sure you complete his order first. If he walks away, you won’t get the prompt.
Step 2: Accept the Objective
Once Earl brings up the toolbox, your active quest will update to search for it. You don’t need to craft or buy anything. Just exit the saloon once your customers are cleared.
Check your task log if unsure. The quest will appear as “Find the Toolbox.”
Step 3: Go to the Stable Area
Head outside and walk toward the barn or stable with the hay piles and horses nearby. This area is accessible during open hours. No map is needed.
Enter the building through the main stable door. You’re looking for stairs or a ladder.
Step 4: Climb to the Upper Loft
Climb up into the hayloft or upper stable platform. You’ll find some old tools, crates, and dust-covered junk. Look carefully around the rafters and wood beams.
The toolbox is sitting near a pile of clutter on the second floor. It does not glow or highlight.
Step 5: Pick Up the Toolbox
Walk close and interact with the toolbox. Your character will pick it up and comment on it. This completes the objective.
From there, return to Earl when prompted. He’ll continue the story and unlock the next upgrade path.
Final Blurb
The toolbox is part of a key story quest in Saloon Simulator and unlocks new mechanics tied to Earl’s upgrades. You don’t need to spend money or search shops for it. Just follow the quest, explore the barn, and pick it up directly from the hayloft. It’s one of the few things in the game that hides in plain sight without a flashy marker.
