Can ridgid just come out with drawers already
So glad you took the time to put this here. This fixes the only problem I had with this system. I use the organizer boxes elsewhere and was really frustrated with the lack of top handle. Perfect fix - You *are* the man!
Great idea, thanks! I did this today without drilling the inside ends of the dowel housing. [I used a small sharp chisel to move the dowels out far enough to be able to grab them with pliers]. 5 minutes start to finish.
I'm happy with mine the way they come because i use the stacked boxes as a mobile camp kitchen system, but i applaud your creativity in making it work better for you.
Thanks!
An unintended but frankly valid design feature: The ability to swap out the box tops. In fact, doing this should not void any warranties.
About half way through your video is when I realized that I was actually watching a genius at work and not a mad scientist :) Awesome job !!! I'm definitely going to subscribe !!!
I thought he was going to pull out a few little people or something , but this was a GREAT idea though ..
Agree!
Great job! I am taking it a step further, and trying to figure out a way to hold some often used tools under the lid as well (like the yellow box)
Yes, i was thinking about it too, there is a enough space for some bit, drills, scissors, pliers, etc.
At first, I wasn't sure where you were going with this project, it seemed strange, but that turned out great, I'm glad I kept watching. I just bought the 22" case and some custom fitted Kaizen foam for it, I'm making a travel case for all my GoPro cameras and cable cam equipment, If I ever buy the other RIDGID cases, I'm going to change my lid too. Thanks for the idea and good luck with your RIDGID case system.
Thank you!
Awesome!!!.. makes much more sense this way. Since the smaller one is gonna be moved more than the bigger one
If only Ridgid had the sense to design it like this in the first place!
AWESOME!!!! Well done!! You'd think the manufacturer would know we can't lift a great big case with a single handle, but definitely can lift a smaller case with a handle!!! DUH!!! Thanks for making the video!!!
Exactly!
LOL!! Friggin' genius. On other similar sets I've always use the larger box as large tool storage or as a make shift work bench. No need to make my work any harder.
You totally right - I am a genius :-) and I am a FIX IT ALL, so I need a comfortable grip to my tool box.
It's easier to Carrry the smaller box like a suitcase though. And the handle on the front let's.you open the box with other boxes locked In place.
Yes but doing it that way would make his choice of tools all in there with none of the organization bins would make them spill every which way and commit incest with each other resulting in having to spank each tool after each trip even though it was your fault to begin with!!!
I own several sets of these. I use two of the medium size as saddlebags on my motorcycle. I hated the handle on the top. Thanks, I didn’t think to replace lids.
I like your idea and will change the lids on my boxes like you did. Thanks for the idea of putting the milk crate on the bottom of the tool box.
I wish ridgid would make the smaller case with wheels on one end and a pull out handle like the smaller Pelican case, or sell a wire dolly that could latch into the bottom of the case to make any ridgid case function that way.
Packing a box like that would drive me nuts 🙃 🤪
thank you. Was the first thing i didn't like about the system. I caught this before i loaded them. I bought two whole sets(on sale, home despot)because i like the system so much. I'll 'fix' both tops.
Glad I help you!
I did two boxes last night, worked perfect. One of them is not as tight as usual, but still locks firmly. Not sure why it is loose, but again, not planning on leaving them out in the rain. Doesn't make sense (to me) to have the handle briefcase style anyway. Plus, there ARE handles on the larger box, just use the hold down clips. All tools loaded, and will make their way to job site today, two trips, not the usual 6 or 7, workshop-van, van-workshop.
I invested in Dewalt before the Ridgid came out. I love my DeWalts except for the plastic tab on the sides. If they are loaded i don't believe they can hold the weight. This leads into my comment about the Ridgid. When they first came out I looked at them and loved the hinge system on the sides to lock the boxes together. But it was too late. So now I used the plastic tabs just to hold the boxes together when on a dolly or in the vehicle transporting from one place to another. ( I think that is what they are for and not carrying another box unless the box is smaller on the bottom.)
Looks worth getting! At first by the sound of the music I was slipping into the twighlight zone😊
at first I had no idea what you were doing, then I realized I will be doing this on both of mine I have tomorrow. you are awesome! I wish I still had my 2 "tube" tool boxes ridgid made for a short period of time. I had returned them thinking I wouldn't like them. so mad I did and now I can't get them anymore!
Thank you! Some times yo can find a RIDGIT Tool Box Pro Tube 25" at eBay. But price more than original store price.
I dig them the way they are most of the bulk of our tool's go in the midsize box's and having the carrying handle makes life easy. I had hoped this was DIY inserts or something
That was pretty cool its how they should have done it in the first place
I just bought premade Kaizen foam from Kaizen Foam Inserts website and cut my tools in. You can order the top lid foam as well and my tools stay in place...
I have this set and I think it is awesome. Watching this video I was like why is he drilling into this great set up? Then I saw what he did. This is how Ridgid should have done it. I use this set as a mobile box for auto mechanic jobs. The top box having to be carried side ways can be a pain with sockets going everywhere. Then the way they can be carried with the first and second boxes connected, just like a normal carry box. Also, I always have to take the set apart to go up and down stairs, this will make the transitions easier.Great idea, I will do this to mine.
Thank you for watching my channel.
I bought the DeWalt toolbox that looks like that Rigid one. It comes with super good fold out handles on each end and on top in the middle. Same price range and they all lock together for carrying and putting on a cart.
Yes. Thank you. Exactly the problem I had with this tool box. Thank you for a solution.
Glad it helped!
Wouldn't work for me, I use the parts bins in my pro organizer and the lid from the Ridgid pro toolbox does not have the indents in it that seal up the pro organizer parts bins and keep the parts in them from falling out and getting all over and the center of the pro organizer box lid is taller so you would lose space with the pro toolbox lid and I would rather have the top handle on my pro toolbox, because I pack it by that handle when I carry it, than have 2 handles on my smaller pro organizer. Also I only carry my Ridgid boxes if it's just one I don't pack my Ridgid toolboxes around hooked together cuz I load them with so many tools and they get so heavy that it would be very hard to pack more that one around at a time, I have and use the pro gear cart that has wheels and the telescoping handle and I put my pro toolbox the medium size box and the pro organizer the small box on top of my pro gear cart so I can roll them all around. Very inventive to change the lids around like you did though. It would be cool to have a handle on top of the pro organizer, but I can see why Ridgid didn't design it with a top handle it's because it's already a shallow box and if they were to put a handle in the lid it would become even shallower since the handle would be recessed into the lid and then you would lose space inside the box. Here is the way I go about loading things up and this is just works for me personally everyone has they way they like to load things. ua-cam.com/video/k3J_6_m9QcQ/v-deo.html
Have you tried swapping the inner liner sides of the smaller accessory box case lid? you may have to cut and seal/glue but then you could still use one or both orange side trys. I set my tools up snug, safe and weight distributed towards the vertical hinge bottom so they are fine for me in stock configuration.
That’s fn genius!!!!!! Awesome idea! I just got this set up and that was one of my concerns. Thank you
You welcome!
Brilliant! And excellently communicated by mime-accessible to speakers of any language! You may have talked me into buying Rigid over DeWalt.
Thank you.
He "talked" you into it. That's clever!
The only good thing Dewalt has going for their boxes is that you don't have to unpack the stack to get to a middle box, they just slide out. Water resistant system is garbage on Dewalt also.
Молодец мужик! Голова!
Genius. Well done. With flair. Very nice.
Thank you!
I own two complete sets of these boxes and have yet to find the lid design to be a problem.
No problem at all if you use it like organizer.
Fix it All that's so right but I'm using multiples of these as "task boxes". I'll definitely have to try this!! Thank you
+Fix it All in which country
USA
I assume you put the lid to the Pro Organizer to the Pro Tool Box. Now, how are you going to carry the Pro Tool Box? You could have just attached the Pro Organizer under the Pro Tool Box. They lock together.
EXACTLY , WHY WOULD YOU WANT TO SWAP THEM UMMM
I'm digging the little yellow tool box!
Im wondering which 1 you would think for the following application:
Small floor Jack, 2-3ton
12V Air compressor (150psi)
3/8 drive air gun.
Car trunk..
maybe try to install wheels on the bottom or something on there and make a portable system just an idea in my opinion it probably look good I might try it
I purchased the bottom piece of this set. The part that has the wheels and the telescoping handle.
But I do like what you did though.
The bottom part has some great potential!
I was waiting for a magic trick like a rabbit to appear in case. lol
At first, I thought you were over thinking it. But for one of my Organizers, I don't use the cups. Actually, I only use the cups in one of them. That could be brilliant, particuarly since one of my toolboxes is used for a car organizer- I might have to do some surgery.
These make amazing laptop cases, by the way. 90% of a Pelican, for a tenth the cost.
Thank you !
These tool boxes are fine until you work with it everyday...high prices for plastic, I've made a wooden one by myself and it's 10 times tougher.
Have this exact Ridgid toolbox setup and use it everyday for work. The bottom of the large wheeled box blew out about a year after I bought it. Other smaller parts like the box connector handles have broken, and the plastic wheels have disintegrated. I've debated buying the Milwaukee tool Box system but it's overly expensive! Like you mentioned, it may be a good idea to just build my own.
I’ve got an old 20 inch Samsonite briefcase I am repurposing as a tool carrier. I’ve gutted the inside and I’m fabricating holders and cutouts.
going strong for 3 years straight everyday usage. Don't over fill the bottom box is the key. Use the mid sized box and opt for 28 in rolling modular box
I love the music, the boxes are awesome.
You're gesticulating like a magician over those boxes.
:-)))
Excellent
Thank you! Cheers!
Mystical futuristic music … for a tote.
That's very clever!!! Thanks for sharing.#PEACE✌🏾
Thanks for watching!
Great idea. I wish I could buy the "pro box" here in canada. Would be a great additional to the organizer and middle piece. Can't seem to find it anywhere :(
Awesome. Thanks for the hack. Could you do a trolley wheel hack with the crate?
Thanks for the idea!
or just buy a dewalt TSTAK box which has the top and side handles already there and it wont cost you the price of two rigid boxes and wont leave you with a bigger box that now has no handle...
Another selling point for Ridgid is that they are a little less expensive. And I do like the size.
Why not just buy the whole setup from Harbor Freight? Theirs has that handle on the small box and is a lot cheaper.
It would be very easy. Well, then that box does not fit with these latches in one piece. And there will be no video. 😉
Маленький ящик не имеет сверху ручки, чтобы не уменьшать обьем ящика.
В его верхней крышке сьемная пластиковая плита, оеа вынемается путем поддевания отверткой , таким образом увеличивая полещный обьем ящика на 4- 5 см по высоте.
А у ящика с ручкой крышка полезного обьемамне имеет , т.к она стоит на и так глубоком ящике
Да, панель убирается. Но без ручки верхней при боковом переносе, в чемодане получается полный бардак с массой мелких инструментов и запчастей.
Great idea for people that prefer that option but personally it's not my cup of tea I'd be constantly hitting my legs while carrying the box from place to place BTW I do have the same tool boxes
I have tool box about the size of the smaller one shown in the video full of common hand tools. It weighs about 40 pounds. No way would be able to lift two more attached and loaded box.
Muito boa essa caixa de ferramenta show mesmo
Essa músic também e boa manda ela pra gente kk
Obrigado por assistir meu canal.
Infelizmente eu não me lembro de ud eu baixei essa música.
Great job!!!
Thanks for watching!
Wonderful idea!
previously you had a central handle for lifting the larger case cause carrying in in two hands by the side handles and in front of you loads the spine too much. Now you have the handle for carrying a case you can't load as much as the bigger one. Where's the logic???
it is in a big case and it stays in my garage all the time. I never take it to work.
well, in that case it's hard to argue. Anyway, as long as you managed to maintain the durability the idea was as goog.
Hi body. Excellent work.very veey good and intelligent. I wish you must fixate the mini wheels.
But you still keep the labels on them...?
:-)
more importantly anyone wondering why rigid wasn't bright enough to do this?
They're trying to be cost competitive vs the Rough Box
They were... attach them together with the handle on top. Ez.
That box is the organizer. The inner liner on the lid is meant to stop all your screws and small items from mixing together. It's not meant to have the handle on top. This is just another demonstration of how customizable these boxes are.
Freaking genius idea!!!
So 9 frickn’ minutes to say “the lids are interchangeable”.... are you serious?
That's why I show to the world how to to it.
Now show us how to make drawers.
I hope you know you have voided your warranty!...LOL Awesome job making that thing work the way it should!
You made it harder to lift a bigger box and made it easier to lift a smaller box and if it locks together like that then why do all this.
Actually I never take a big box from my van. Only small box came to a houses with me :-)
Like a magic trick for simpletons.
I’ve got a great idea, since there is no organization why not put your tools into a bucket that only cost $ 2.50 ( and it has a top handle) unless your skills and abilities are so poor that you need smoke, mirrors and a modified tool box to make it look like you know. In that case you nailed it ( but you bent the nail half way they driving it. )
😂 you beat me to it. That was my first thought once I realized what was happening. Homer bucket works just as good for all that crap he piled into that box
You right guys, bucket would work fine ... But, it's not a good idea when i have a 9 month rain season in here - Seattle area.
Молодец
while it is an OK modification It is completely Useless when you buy the bottom with wheels if you load the basket,and the larger tools box with tools you wont be able to carry it with one hand...
I newer used big boxes.
good hack boss , but the original was more covert. like it better that way.remove the rigid I d and makes a great weapons locker.
Отлично, Василий!
Спасибо !
I don't think the box is designed to carry it that way. The plastic clips will eventually brake.
I remove the top handled lead from twice bigger box. So it's no problem with small box.
@@FixitAll I think you misunderstood me. You demonstrated carrying it with the larger boxes attached to the smaller one. Over time the clips will break and that isn't possible anyway if they were full of tools. I bought the rigid boxes for 150$ but gave them to a friend. I think they are too bulky. Good boxes nonetheless. I have DeWalt boxes now and love them.
Depending on your need's ,
This is a great Hot tip !
Хаха, это гениально! 😀👍🏻
Для моей работы супер удобный чемодан получился. Теперь всё лежит так, как в него и положил, а не переворачивается кверх тормашками если бы я носил за боковую ручку.
Top cover have a removable plate , to make more volume.
Can't do with the new 2.0 lids are different sizes.
They watched my hack, and changed the size? 😅
Very cool
You sir are a genius
Thanks man !!!
cool music choice bro...
When you Finally got to work I was impressed. Good idea...
Thank you.
If I lived in a city...... That would be my briefcase. And I would take that to my office job everyday.
Very nice
Thanks
Good idea thanks
cool idea. I have those same tool boxes.
They should just offer the organizer box in the buyer's choice of either front- or top-handle options.
Omg I love mine, the 3 piece set👍🏻
I must be missing something here. Why not just transfer the tools from the smaller box to the bigger box with the top handle.
Mostly I walk to my customers with one tool box. So no reason to take a bigger all time.
you can do all that but you chose to switch the lids. You could've just make a handle with 2 screws at minimum for that lid. People who praise you don't seem to really think.
Yes, handle works too, but its not looks professional.
whats the point, just so the small ones on top?
I'm getting one for my dad for Christmas
Clarence from RoboCop Knows how to modify the tool boxes!
Jk great video, thanks :-)
;-))))
They made the RIDGID tool boxes to roll for a reason why would you wanna carry pointless.
In my type of work i never ever caring other tool boxes from this set.
Just this one for small hand tools. And i don't like to flip it over all the time with noise inside of mixing tools and other staff.
if the lids are the same could you have just popped out the logo on one and swapped the handle
No, construction of the lid completely different inside. There is no space for handle.
Great job !
Huh. 😮 I like it.
Thanks!
Now you have two handles on the small toolbox and no handles on the big toolbox. Seems to me if you wanted a top handle to carry everything around you just put the big toolbox on the top and carry it. I looked at the Ridgid pro tool box, the small one, and decided against it. All that space in the top is wasted. They could’ve use that for storage bins but chose not to. Anyway, interesting approach if you have the time and desire to do what you did. Good luck!
All depend on your work. Big box newer get from my van. Only with my new top handle important to my work.
I installed top handle since i have many small hand tools and parts in my box and every time when i lift box by the side handle all my tools fly and flip like in a mixer. So never organised and all time croupy mess.
perfect idea! your a genius!
Thanks !
You do realize that on the smaller box you can pop the interior lid insert out with a screwdriver, creating more interior space for use as a regular toolbox, right? DERP!!!!!
Yes I know it, was done this in the store before buy.
