    I had the same experience with the clip tech cord wrap. I didn't have issues sometimes after purchasing it i was missing a screw right out of the box. I thought it would be the same experience I had with kreg rip cut but with that I had a piece break months after purchase. So I contacted them and they sent replacement parts. With toughbuilt I expected replacement screws but they sent me a new cord wrap set.

    This is inssne to have to mod something so much that costs so much money. I think I'd rather deal with doing what I have to in order to just store in one of their top opening boxes. Even if it required stacking the whole thing on a flat/long folding dolly or another set of wheels.

      ‘Til you on a jobsite with 100 other people and you’re trying to get tools, put them up, change bits, get anchors, and yourco-worker needs the tool on the bottom of the stack, not worrying that some is going to walk off with a tool you left open or sitting out because it goes in the box on the bottom of the stack… everybody’s needs are different. That’s why there are so many brands of tools and storage systems. That situation, I just described, was the tipping point for me, for changing to a drawer system.

  • @miguelquazar883
    @miguelquazar883 Місяць тому

    Why not just put a hinged box on the top with power tools? It couldn't be too top heavy by the time the others are fully loaded. IDK, I just bought a set of wheels, 2- 3 drawer boxes, an organizer and I already had a gen 1 hinged box which is made to work with Gen 2 pefectly. I think it is insane Ridgid did not think of making a large 1 drawer box. I hope they release it soon. So how did your mod workout?! Would like to know. This are a bit pricey, but nothing like Milwaukee's prices. The Ridgid stuff seems to always be sturdier than the Milwaukee pack-out and cost much less per item.

    This is clean. I'm working on building out something like this for my Rigid system since Rigid doesn't have anything like that on the horizon. But part of me also might just retire the Rigid, repurpose it for camping gear and go tough built.

    I only see a 3-drawer box in HD. And the drawer box should have wheels. It's pointless for Rigid to keep the big base box with wheels when it doesn't have any drawers.

      Yes larger box. But, I changed my bit storage cases to make my drill setup work. For the vacuum to fit, i ended up cutting an inch off the vacuum wand and it fit.

    Thank You for following up on updates like this. Can you go to places with casters and find the size to? i have no packout myself . Someone else also suggested plates and wheels. If t hey are comming with mounting plate probably you could built your own too. Cheers!

    • @donniestoolthoughts9209
      @donniestoolthoughts9209 Місяць тому

      The casters are weird with two different sizes of shafts. I mean they can’t deny they are copying packout. Imitation is the best form of flattery, as long as they don’t get sued…

    • @donniestoolthoughts9209
      @donniestoolthoughts9209 2 місяці тому

      one drawer box. It is so handy and speeds up our installs / service calls to be able to grab the tools we need and throw them in the stack. Easy access without having to move boxes back and forth. The drop and lock stacking feature is also nice. For the money, you can’t beat the ridgid /AEG boxes for amount of space to money ratio. I still have a warehouse full of ridgid boxes with tools in them. Toughbuilt looks like they’re in financial trouble… may not be around much longer. If they go away, I’ll come up with a custom ridigid one drawer box.

    You're stronger than me. You make it look so easy. lol... Thank you for the video, I would have given up if I hadn't seen you do it. It took me forever to get the two rails out, a bit of blood and not quitting. I was having to put so much more everything into it that the wall was bending on the box, I was afraid I was going to break something. I wonder if that tab on mine is thicker or something as it took vice grips to pull that tab and a lot of shaking on the rails to get them out. Thank goodness it was only two rails that needed to be removed. lol... Thanks again for the video!
