I have almost every 12 volt Milwaukee tool in their line. Love it!

Have some of the Dewalt carrier/toolboxes. They are ok but, that new Milwaukee line is gonna pop my wallet out yet again!!!

We have a couple of these boxes. They are parts organizer style with a bunch of 4” square containers that can be removed. They aren’t bad.

Ditto on DeWalt! I got this DeWalt backpack tool carrier thing a while back that has been awesome. I just looked it up and I think it's a DG5503. It was only like $40. Absolutely love it.

According to the M's video, you don't want to be in cinder-block business if you own DeWalt.
I think it's funny how some companies pick irrelevant things to make themselves look better.

Well, it wasn't the rti rep, or even a rep in our industry so I believed him. He sounded convincing, lol.
Must have been a bad day, good thing I didnt run into the white van guys or I may have bought something.

Yeah, I did not need to see that.
Was just thinking about redoing my storage/organization system in my truck.
This is gonna get expensive.

Edit: the only downside to systems like this is no way would I ever feel comfortable wheeling something, anything into a client's house.

Risking damage on their wood/marble/leather/whale penis floor is just too much. Having to hand carry all my crap in sucks but....
I am a trained professional..... Do not attempt this stunt at home.

I thought about that too and maybe adding some fine floor casters to the bottom of the wheeled box. Tilt it back and the large wheels touch.

My though is to only use it for large "rough-in" tools like circular saw, SDS Hammer drill, Jigsaw, Sawzall, Larger Drills, Impact, ect. and keep all the associated bits, blades and chargers in the smaller units on top.

I wouldn't keep trim-out tools or supplies in it and would never roll soemthing like this into a finished house.

I would roll it into the garage and then have much quicker access to what I need then running out to a vehicle.
Do any of the systems have Wheels you would take onto a clients finished floor? Maybee festool? The Rigid and DeWalt look like a no go to me as well

Of course Im usually trimming out while there is still ramboard down so not much of an issue
