Bremon Posted January 7, 2017 Report Share Posted January 7, 2017 Happy to help! Keep in mind I'm still not 100% happy with my setup, as mentioned the Fuel drill and impact may leave the saw at some point. I'm also looking into kaizen foam for the smaller boxes to further the organization. I plan on leaving room for batteries to be on the tools so if it's a small job I don't need to take a 100 with 9+ batteries (12 is the final goal for m18, 10-11 for Dewalt). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aabee Posted January 7, 2017 Report Share Posted January 7, 2017 Even if, for whatever reason, you change your mind on going with Tough System, buy that radio. It's darn near Bose-quality with a ton of thump. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bremon Posted January 7, 2017 Report Share Posted January 7, 2017 @aabee is right; despite some flaws I wouldn't hesitate to call it the best jobsite radio on the market. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Framer joe Posted January 7, 2017 Report Share Posted January 7, 2017 Can't beat tough system boxes...waterproof,rugged,stackable....for outside use imo they are the best....I also love tstak ,although not as heavy duty,they are durable and have great storage ...

Framer joe Posted January 7, 2017 Report Share Posted January 7, 2017 I would have done the same thing....Dewalt should come out with a storage shed to house all our tools and storage containers....make it like a tough system case with a vent..!

Bremon Posted January 8, 2017 Report Share Posted January 8, 2017 I'm having trouble uploading other pictures but the only clean efficient ones so far are Sawzall and impact wrenches. They are basically grab and go solutions. The rest I'm still deliberating on. Kaizen foam needs to happen soon for me I feel. Also feeling like my big money hand tools like the Knipex collection need a DS100 of their own rather than get tossed into a random hand tool box. The grinder box for instance looks like junk and is only the way it is currently to keep things snug. There are some accessories in the lid but each grinder may end up in a 130 because the lids on the 150 are sort of junk for grinder gear. Undecided as of yet but the lid storage really only lends itself to small amounts of drill bits etc. The 130 lid is similar on one side while the other will basically only hold driver bits unless you do some cutting. The journey towards efficiency and organization continues lol. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jronman Posted January 9, 2017 Report Share Posted January 9, 2017 tough box 150 vs 130? I got a 130 but haven't ever used a 150. The boxes appear to be similar. Could a 20v planer fit in a 130 or 150? Thinking of getting another box to fit a planer and a multitool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could a 20v planer fit in a 130 or 150? Thinking of getting another box to fit a planer and a multitool. The XR planer barely fits in a 300 if you want to keep the tray in, you have to position its handle underneath the handle of the tray very deliberately. The 130 is a low-cost USA assembled version of the 150 that has no top handle, purge vent (which are silly anyway; these don't seal nearly as reliably as a Pelican case), and has different lid storage. I prefer the 130 from initial look but I won't buy any until I see them at non-HD places for non-HD prices. As it stands I can easily find the 150 for 20 CAD less than the 130. HD charges nearly double what the price of the 130 ought to be here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
