Where can I buy quality portable tool boxes? Hd, Lowe's, and hf all sell crap. Please help!
Don't get hung up on just 1 system... I've got 3 (kind of 4). I've got systainers, sortimo (bosch lboxx), and dewalt tstak (and the dewalt 12 bin containers that only mate with themselves).I use festool systainers because that's the system I'm investing in. They will hold up great the way I treat them. If you have employees who do t care about your stuff and throw it around I'm not sure how they would take it.
I like how incredibly easy the are to move around, re stack, open, etc.
Could you possibly show how you are using them?
If all of my tools were lost or whatever, I think I would go Bosch for my new ones.I like Bosch tools, so I've adopted the LBoxx system. Seems to stand up pretty well to abuse, and if you're creative can be customized inside to suit multiple tools, consumables etc. A little pricey, but they work nicely with my OCD. :thumbup:
That would take a long time but I'll break it down. For example I put my mini portable band saw in one of the large ones, I have 2 grinders and wheels in a small one, I have my fien in a small, I have my concrete tools in a large, etc. Sure there is wasted space inside many of the boxes but the overall organization more than makes up for it.Could you possibly show how you are using them?
What's in each box maybe?
So... Excuse my ignorance. What does a portable band saw get used for?RobertCDF said:That would take a long time but I'll break it down.

Cutting metal.So... Excuse my ignorance. What does a portable band saw get used for?
I almost said I was think of it as a power hacksaw but the. I figured I would look like an idiot. Lol.RobertCDF said:
I usually use a worm drive with a Diablo steel cutting blade for most of our cuts, but there are some things that band saw works good for. It's actually pretty durable, I kicked the crap out of it and threw it across the patio a couple times today... still works great.That compact port-a-band is cute. But that is all it has going for it. :laughing:
