If you think veto's are expensive try this one on for size lol.

Pelican cases are ridiculous, you can get a rolling tool chest with straps to put it on your back.

I've got the magma and they are great but just make sure you get the hard bottomed one and not the soft bottomed as the hard is a lot sturdier and bigger

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?

that's the magma version. it's similar but more robust, better quality. got the same one myself. only gripe i have is that my irazola drivers are too long to fit.

Hmm 4 times the cost, think I will stick to the Magma ones for now. Thats a massive outlay for something to carry tools in lol

Yes they are put I have had a few CK / magma one and generally fall to pieces by there second birthday. Last one one lasted me a year. That's why I have gone for the veto range with a 5 year back up. Mine are just a year old and still look brand new.

I use this one and have found it very good.....

I really like my facom bag as well, bright red and can spot it a mile away

You should see the price Tidyboiler pays for bags to carry her war paint, filofax, I-pad jemmy and all her other junk around in - it's eye watering!!!

A guy I work with has the same one I believe. Seems to be good quality and definitely something I might invest in.

Ive got one in the garage, still in good nick.

I swapped it for a veto when I got tired of doing that woman thing off shaking it upside down to grab a tool that had become burried.

would definately recommend ( the red cover folds into a hidden pocket if you want an open bag)

Well they need to be sturdy enough to carry the copper, cutlery from the balti house, glasses from the pub and latte mugs from the café!!

Anything over a couple of £100 seems to be the norm these days!! If youre daft enough that is!! lol!!

I suppose if your on the tools it might well be lol

What about a case on wheels? Had mine for 7 years and it's still going strong.

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 don't think a wheel along tool case will work, I do a lot of walking off-road to remote pump installations etc.

I don't think a 'tote' type bag will work either, my laptop and testers will be bouncing around with my handtools.

WOW £239.95!!!! If I win the lottery it might be an option. Until then unfortunately not I'm afraid.

go for the magma. it's similar in storage to what you already have but a bit better build.
