New toolbag suggestions?

[D00DY_T00DY]

Hello all,

Looking at a new tool bag/tote.
Had my eye on a facom 20" tote with the hacksaw pocket and weatherproof cover, any good?

Anyone have any other suggestions for a new bag/tote (not a box please they're clunky and awkward)
Don't be throwing out ideas of a £200 bag not feeling that flush
Cheers

That's the bag I have now
But in grey. My second one but it's starting to fall apart
Looking for a rigid tote so my tools don't just get thrown in like I do now, just gave my bag a clear out and a clean; tried using the pockets but it just falls in on itself.

Getting to a job and throwing all my tools out to look for a chisel then throwing them back in after isn't my idea of fun lol

I had one of these before upgrading to a Veto.

Very good bag and would go back to it if I ever had an issue with the Veto that made it unusable.

Been trying to figure out if the front fits most hacksaws and not only a facom one?
I have an erwin and it's constantly on the top of all my tools and in the way

Just realised it was a link and not you saying you had a facom

Sorry, sneaky link! You can put stuff like hacksaws on the top of the lid of the Stanley one, the adjustable elasticated part is fairly universal.

Yeah, I was looking at a MOLLE bag to add bits on like armies use. Couldn't really find a nice sized duffle bag only backpacks.

Nice suggestion

I suppose the answer is don't throw your tools out, treat them with respect they are your livelyhood.

Why I want a new bag to keep them all nice and organised!

Only downside for me was due to the size if you aren't careful you'll overfill it and kill yourself trying to carry it! Handy for throwing a drill in or even an MFT on certain jobs. Can't remember if it came with a shoulder strap but fairly certain in could accommodate one.

Tend to leave my drills in their box and don't have an MFT

Reviews on that site mentioned a lack of a shoulder strap. Could always Macgyver one on I suppose
