  • In my quest to "Stop The Struggle" I decided to take one of my toolbox systems and put it to work. We use this for templates & those small 1 or 2 day installs with minimal cutting. Quite often the small projects don't allow for on-site tool storage, so this is a quick and easy method of loading & un-loading.

    As a low voltage technician, I'm going to use this method but with the basket box instead, that way I have a portable desk/work bench for notes and prints and smaller tasks. Thank you for this video! 👍

    Great idea. I have a small painting and light carpentry business. I have purchased the rigid system over the course of this summer. This system is fantastic! These hack tip videos are great and really get my creative juice's flowing. I guess I'll have to make a video soon. Thanks

    Thanks Brian, I have the Ridgid Boxes and this will work Great!!
    I already made one and it saves me from getting another stand out on small jobs
    Thanks!

    RIDGID makes a basket for this system that is a lot cheaper to whack off the bottom of.
    I use my two RIDGID toolbox stacks to hold my video, sound and grip gear.

    Love the idea. I'd only add that if you chop the milk crate add-ons for this system it's about half the price of the small tool case

    • @brianway
      @brianway  6 років тому +5

      your totally right, I had 3 boxes hanging around, so i just used one, but that is definitely a more cost effective method

      just mount the board to the top of the crate and then you can toss scrapps into that.

      Even better yet, one builder ran the milk crate add-on through his table saw several times (much easier than the jig saw)
      and ended up with a Ridgid flat cart on wheels as well as the chop saw mount. The name of the video is: "RIDGID PRO TOOL BOX IDEA" and his channel is called: Custom Design Nabelsi...

    Saw this video about a year ago excellent idea. I wanted to use it for my new Ridgid wet saw that doesn’t fit on the stand that my old Ridgid wet saw fit on. Another youtuber made a video cutting the bottom out the Ridgid egg crate container a lot more economical

  • @lukek6827

    looks like a great way to cut up £40 worth of useable box. could of just just made a plywood cover (upside down draw) that fits snug over the original box. that way it costs much less and doesnt destroy anything.

  • @ufvj217
    @ufvj217 4 роки тому +4

    Awesome, I love this!! I have plenty of extra boxes myself (a few that are broken actually so I can use the bottom of those) to make setups like this. Question, what are those adjustable stands you are using to hold up what you cut with the saw? I'm sure there's plenty options out there but those look like they work nice and have a large surface area on the top to hold larger pieces of wood and stuff. Thanks!
    PS now you have ideas running through my mind to mount various tools, radios etc to make things attachable to my Ridgid carts. I'm gonna end up finding things to mount to them just to do it...LOL

    Kewl Tool mod !!
    This video was uploaded in 2018 ......I was wondering how this Tool modification is doing today in 2021 ?
    This would be a great mod for a budget toolbox like the 3piece Husky for $98 (cad).
    3 piece Rigid toolbox ,around my parts is a bit expensive at 270$ (cad)
