Which tool case?

Yes comparing the most expensive, but thats still twice a much and a little bit more.

The most expensive is more than twice the size of the magma and the open tote is 240 while the one with zips is 180?

But you have to turn sideways walkinh through doors with them, there that big

I use a roll along Peli case, extendable handle like a flight case, just been to Paris with it on a job and went via Eurostar and metro performed great and it's totally waterproof and can be put straight into hold luggage if need be.

I was just thinking exactly the same, 150 quid for the TechXL Veto and 36 quid for the CK Magma. That's a substantial difference, I'd need a lot of convincing to spend over a hundred quid more.....

The small bags are massively overpriced for what you get (I got mine really cause it was the biggest bag with a shoulder strap I could get from a shop)

Its full by the way and I didnt want a toolbox

I use Vet Pro Pacs I have got two OT-XL bags, they do the job perfectly.

My ones were £185 each, until you have owned one you will always wonder whta the fuss is about.

Heres a ebay link to the one you currently have

C.K HARD BASE PLUS TOOL BAG FOR LAPTOP/TOOLS- T1632 | eBay

Hmm, I think I got wrong info, I was told it had been discontinued but I see it's changed colour, mine is navy blue. Did they change anything else or just the colour?

I know the one you have navy and yellow trim thing,these are a new colour, more or less the same bag bar the colour. Im using one at the minute and its great, organised and theres a space for everything. Seems to be wearing well too. Had a stanley fatmax before it and it was really poor IMO.

I get the impression they're better for someone carrying bigger heavier tools like drills, hammers, chisels etc. Do you think they be suitable for my more lightweight tool selection and my notebook (laptop)?

I've also been combing the internet, I see nobodies mentioned the fatmax range, I'm guessing there might be a reason?

 

[uksparks]

I'll if i get a min post a pic of both my bags showing what's in them and you will see how much you can fit.

 

[Marvo]

Maybe I should post a couple of pics of mine. I'll take a few tomorrow.

I have got a fatmax tote but it rays in the van with the heavy stuff in like hammers and chisels etc.

The beauty of the Veto range is that they are perfectly designed to carry hand tools.

Would suit both needs, i can fit a hacksaw, spare blades, dymo label printer, socket tester, multimeter 16oz claw hammer and big lump hammer ( and perhaos other bits) in the centre compartment, but if you dont need to carry those everyday, it would make a great laptop bag, then you have your other two sides for screwdeivers, pliers etc etc. Would be well suited i think. Take a look at the pics on ebay Marvo.
