    I hope they don't fall in the same trap as Makita OPE.  Any of those bare tools you can get the EGO equivalent with a battery for the same price and open up a well established and more complete OPE line.

     

    Edit: I misread prices so the hedge trimmers are the same price but I think the point stands.

    I'm with you on that Jeff, I'm already invested in the Makita 18V/36V line, but have not made the jump to their 5ah/6ah batteries yet. The Ego line looks like a good product and to be honest I wouldn't mind jumping into that battery platform to save some money.

    I did not buy it for all of those same reasons. Not to mention it doesn't stack with or fit in any other stackable storage. It isn't worth the money. Take it back.

    I am currently using a husky cantilever tool box made by Keter. They're the same company that made the original Kreg cantilever tool box.

    I have a couple of those Husky Canteliever boxes. I use them for wire nuts, hardware. Etc.

    Home Depot has them for $20.00 again, down from $29.99

    Great job Mikey, I likey!!!

     

    Also, the through metal on the top is that iron?

    Thanks Chris. It's actually 1/2" threaded rod spray painted black. The landscaping timbers were a little racked so I needed something to help square them up a little more on the top.

  4. Worked on this yesterday, picked up  some cinder blocks, patio block, 4X4X8' PT posts, some 8' landscaping timbers, pea gravel and some hardware  and put it together.

    its very solid, will probably build another one to store some more lumber when I have one of my trees cut down.
