Harold Wray Posted September 14, 2013 Report Share Posted September 14, 2013 Stop The Presses!!!! Important news flash!!! Did you guys hear on today's show Dan talked about a Milwaukee's tool box. He said in 6 months or something. Mmmmm. Does he know something we don't. I personally would love a Milwaukee toolbox. Do you guys think they will make one. Let the conspiracy theories begin.

DR99 Posted September 14, 2013 Report Share Posted September 14, 2013 I would expect to see a storage solution from them. People don't seem to like the tool bags or hard sided tool cases. The problem is access to the tool and the amount of space taken up. Also the had sided cases never had room for bits and stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harold Wray Posted September 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2013 I like the hard boxes but like you said you can't fit anything else in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DR99 Posted September 14, 2013 Report Share Posted September 14, 2013 You have got to love spammers with their paragraphs full of gibberish just to cheat the anti spam controls. I'm curious to see if Milwaukee goes the toughbox route, or more the more interchangeable customizable tstak, systainer, lboxx route.

firefighter4187 Posted September 14, 2013 Report Share Posted September 14, 2013 I think Milwaukee is going to take the tool box, and put innovation in it like they do all there other tools, i believe when its all said and done, Milwaukee's tool storage will be on top.

DR99 Posted September 15, 2013 Report Share Posted September 15, 2013 Just worked on organizing my garage today it's such a mess at the moment. My biggest mistake was buying a craftsmen tool chest that's way too small for all the things I have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric - TIA Posted September 15, 2013 Report Share Posted September 15, 2013 I heard you. My box is too small. I just built a shed and now that is too small. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DR99 Posted September 15, 2013 Report Share Posted September 15, 2013 You need to swap houses with Dan he has a nice chunk of property. You could build another garage/workshop on it. My dream one day is a nice ranch done up really nice I don't need a shit load of square footage eating up energy costs. What I do want is a massive pole barn that could be divided into a workshop/mancave/storage area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric - TIA Posted September 18, 2013 Report Share Posted September 18, 2013 Man that sounds like my dream. I would love to have something like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DR99 Posted September 18, 2013 Report Share Posted September 18, 2013 Heck if the pole barn was big enough I would make it really tall and have a bad ass second story area too live in. The only problem most women wouldn't take well to living in a pole barn like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Javier Posted September 18, 2013 Report Share Posted September 18, 2013 It would be interesting to see Milwaukee's take on tool boxes. Probably take Dan's idea and incorporate a charger. I think they should start with tool bags. I like their kit tool bags but they are very basic. I also like their power tool hard cases but they lack accessory storage.

Conductor562 Posted September 21, 2013 Report Share Posted September 21, 2013 I guess I'm old fashioned, but I liked the metal kit boxes too. It really hasn't been all that long ago that they phased them out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeremyJ Posted April 7, 2014 Report Share Posted April 7, 2014 Is there any word on this. I would really be interested in something waterproof but not as heavy as a DewaltTough Box. Something to be used as a work station/tool box.1.Battery Charger outlets or powerstrip, place for rolled up extension cord2.Hooks or shelves for chargers, m12 radio, m12 stick light or m18 flood light etc3. Attachment points for clamps and hanging your drill/impact4. An "appliance style" hand truck that has big enough wheels to go up stairs and across lawns/rocksThere is European woodworker using Festool that has a folding table attached to a 2 wheel custom dolly with systainers boxes, maybe talk to this guy.

cwebby Posted April 7, 2014 Report Share Posted April 7, 2014 it would be awsome for them to come out with a mechanics tool box and tool box for the construction trades. also why hasnt anyone come out with a truck accessory like something that can be mounted into a pickup or van or something i know there are boxes and caps etc i just think a tool company would make something with better ergonomics and accessibility and any advertisement in good advertisement soo having a milwaukee name on a tool chest mounted in my truck lots of people would see that but we can all wait and see whats happening next Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DPSElias Posted April 8, 2014 Report Share Posted April 8, 2014 I need a better storage unit for all my cordless tool....if Milwaukee made a tool box with deep draws so you can store all your power tools in them and a draw with a power, or power on a top shelf, that would be nifty. My current boxes are getting full....I need more box! a nice Tool shed for all my tools would be nice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeremyJ Posted May 3, 2014 Report Share Posted May 3, 2014 I'm not sure how to repost from the main page news article, but the new tool box is pretty close to what I was looking for. Here's my post from the main page... I love the corner tool pockets and the connections for the battery charger. I bought one of those 28″ dewalt/bostitch waterproof boxes (very similar in design). I even cut slots in the lid ribbing to tie up my hand saw and 2 foot level in the lid with hook/loop tape. They sure do get heavy when filled. I was kinda hoping for a 22-24 inch toolbox that will fit through doorways/hallways more easily. Something easily tied to a hand truck.I am still looking for a box for my tool only Fuel Circ and it’s awkward dimensions. What are the dimensions of the inside of the box? Are they coming out with more options?I understand there are no stackable latches, but how about little feet/notches so they can stack without falling over?

JeremyJ Posted May 25, 2014 Report Share Posted May 25, 2014 I found something interesting while searching for a video review of the new Work Box, the M Box 100 PD Hammer Drill kit. The review is from a few months back and from an European website. The kit includes a tool box, 18v hammer drill, two 4 ah batt, one 2 ah batt, dual charger and a 100pc drill set. The tool box has foam inserts, ball bearing lower drawer and metal/plastic construction. Does not seem to have any stackable latches/connections. Is this an old design I missed?

DR99 Posted May 25, 2014 Report Share Posted May 25, 2014 It might have been a one off kit that they made for other markets, but nothing like this even made it to North America from all the tool news sites I visit, or tool review sites. The box is built to look similar to their jobsite radios in appearance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
