At the moment got everything slung in a Stanley 26inch toolbox, which is a joke.

I thought that i'd treat myself to a new toolbox or 2 to help keep everything sorted.

Whats the most prefered type. Is it the type of tote trays like the stanley fatmax ones, or the standard plastic jobbies with the locking catches on the front.
 
Toolboxes.......I'm a sucker for tools and toolboxes...:eek:

I've got 2 at the mo......one of those massive B&Q boxes on wheels for all the non everyday kit i.e pyro tools, data gear, stillsons etc etc, and a C.K technicians tool case for all me drivers, cutters, pliers etc etc.

Works well for me.:)
 
Not many people seem to like them now, but I still love my metal cantilever job (the big one, not the lunch box one). I cant get on with plastic toolboxes, I just seem to end up with everything chucked in a big pile, and cant find anything. Also got a Dewalt bag for hand kit, or battery drills and bits.
Also got a stanley tote thing for diy stuff at home, absolute waste of time, cant ever find anything.

Other than robbing one from one of their engineers, where did you gat the British Gas toolbox from.

Been trying to find them for ages with no luck.

£190 for a toolbag,you must be earning too much money.Got mine from Wickes,£17.49,exactly the same as the Stanley Fat Max and it even has a Stanley label inside.Does the job
 
Hi Pennywise, I use the Veto Pro Pac XL zipped:

How do you manage carrying the XXL, you must have arms like Popeye. I managed to get the XL for £106 but they are now £130!

I also use a Stanley Faxmax Lock n' Stock for my drills, bits, holesaws etc a brilliant bit of kit:

I am possibly the saddest person on here as I get more excited about buying new tools. I even want to start a show and tell thread showing your bags/boxes and tools in them, but am worried it will be just me:eek:
