DarynH Posted April 10, 2015 Report Share Posted April 10, 2015 So this is on Milwaukee Tools Twitter account, it's a conversation they're having about festool systainers and then Milwaukee chimed in. Does this mean new storage options?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben Woodruff Posted April 10, 2015 Report Share Posted April 10, 2015 Something like the tough boxes with drawers would be great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarynH Posted April 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2015 I can't get a timeframe from them, maybe we'll see something at the media even in June Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisK Posted April 10, 2015 Report Share Posted April 10, 2015 It's about time. Seriously! Get on the bandwagon Milwaukee! I wonder if it'll be similar to the Dewalt Toughsystem? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarynH Posted April 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2015 I'm really on the fence about what I hope to see, systainer, tough box....I just hope it's something good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisK Posted April 10, 2015 Report Share Posted April 10, 2015 Yeah and so long as it's modular. They have posted pics of a modular system in Europe, supposedly a third party manufacturer (like Systainer - Tanos and l boxx - Sortimo).

khariV Posted April 10, 2015 Report Share Posted April 10, 2015 I actually really like my job box. I use it to haul around the seemingly endless number of task specific tools and supplies that every project seems to need. I've got my everyday carry tool bag, but it is quite packed and there's no room for caulk, outlets, extra wire, wood putty, sand paper, etc. The odd little job box has saved me from hauling it all around the house in an old cardboard box. Don't get me wrong ... I'll be all over some a red version of the tstak/tough box system too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisK Posted April 11, 2015 Report Share Posted April 11, 2015 That's cool you're using it kdv. I haven't bought one, I'm pretty well immersed in a couple of modular systems in my shop but I've played around with both boxes at HD. My only gripe is modular. For me, I have a small shop and keeping everything stacked is a big deal. I've got a couple of boxes that aren't part of my modular set up and I knock them over, shove them under tables etc to keep them out of the way. I think North Americans want what they have introduced over in Europe.....here! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milwaukeenut Posted April 17, 2015 Report Share Posted April 17, 2015 This I can't wait for. I want the roiling tool box bad and would like to see milwaukee come out with a storage containers like the dewalt boxes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarynH Posted April 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2015 This I can't wait for. I want the roiling tool box bad and would like to see milwaukee come out with a storage containers like the dewalt boxes.I would love to see a rolling box/cart option plus a nesting box system. I was going to buy the tough boxes but I'm going to wait now to see what Milwaukee comes up with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeremyJ Posted April 19, 2015 Report Share Posted April 19, 2015 I'm so glad I just saw this today. I finally saw the Ridgid setup in action yesterday and was sold. I was going to go buy it today....whew. I do like the 26" jobsite box and have bought one, using it everyday. Knowing that they have a modular box system and nailers coming, it's gonna be an expensive year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyB Posted April 19, 2015 Report Share Posted April 19, 2015 Looking forward to see what they come out with, was getting ready to pull the trigger on either Dewalt or the Ridgid... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frankiegarcia19 Posted April 25, 2015 Report Share Posted April 25, 2015 Im still waiting for the mechanica tool storage.. Id like to check it out at HD whrn its out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonathan-m Posted April 26, 2015 Report Share Posted April 26, 2015 Well all they need to do to have a slam dunk is license the gigantic range of tanos systainers. That way their tool storage will be compatible with the majority of the other tool brand out there. Festool, mafell, makita, metabo, mirka, bti, hitachi, triton, lamello,the list goes on.But most likely theyll just try to reinvent the wheel like dewalt did and start from scratch with a completely new and non compatible small range...Its so simple to get this right Milwaukee, but youll probably just shoot yourself in the foot. Dont be stupid and just license the already insanely popular systainers. Especially in Europe many work trucks and vans are specifically designed around the systainer tool box system.

ChrisK Posted April 26, 2015 Report Share Posted April 26, 2015 Welcome to the forum Jonathan-m. Oh, I couldn't agree with you more about that the tool storage. I've got four different modular systems, two Dewalts, a bunch of l boxxes and many systainers. My favorites are my t locs. Not as durable as the Dewalt tough system but it is infinitely useful to have these in my shop. They're the best. That could go with Sortimo too. They are great boxes and have a decent foot print...
