Toolbox for DCD470

[ferg]

I have a Dewalt 54v angle drill, the DCD470.
It's a bit on the big side and I'm wondering if anyone else has one and if so what do you use to store it.
It won't fit in the t-stak boxes and the only tough system box I have is the small one and it definitely won't fit in that either.
I think it might fit in one of the bigger ones at an angle but TBH I don't want to buy one just to find out.

Thats a beast of a drill! What are you drilling through with that?
I have the 18v dewalt angle drill and that will go through some pretty hefty stuff!
Sorry can't help with storage much, buy it a armour draw all of its own.

Packout provides all my tool storage solutions. While they mightn't be up to much where tool manufacture is concerned, Milwaukee certainly know how to make a good box

I bought it as a replacement diamond core drill as my old one is ancient, no safety clutch and hard on my body when using for any length of time.
Since I bought it I have cored out approximately zero holes with it.
I have used it as a stud / joist drill almost daily though and it's heavy but munches through timber like it isn't there and is surprisingly less tiring to use than a normal drill.

I'll have a look see if they do anything suitable.

Ah, so its basically a hole hawk? I keep mine in a Festool box - either a size 4 or 5, I think. Plenty of space for drill bits and the like.

Good shout on the Festool boxes. It looks like an XXL will do the job nicely.

If you'd prefer a Milwaukee box I can see which one will work for ya?

I think the Festool one will be perfect but thanks.
Besides it would be a bit like having a Ferarri engine in a Fiat 500.
