Ford Transit Connect set up, its my little tool box truck.

 

ill try to find a pic, but the bed of my truck fits my trim tools if its put in correctly. I have a be cover also so i can leave it loaded overnight. The only issue i have is i can haul too much materials with the tools loaded. Hence why i want a trailer.

 

My everyday tools are in my 6x12 trailer and the non everyday tools are in my basement

 

I have an enclosed utility body truck.

 

We have an enclosed utility box truck too. 16'. Everything from power tool rack to pneumatic tool rack to the nuts, bolts, screws, and nails. Then you have the shovels and post hole diggers, 1 man auger. Theres this top shelf which is where the microwave sits (which we never use) and A-lot of extra jackets, coffee cups, and shirts. Kinda messy with a 5 man crew. We also have a hose reel for air hoses. I used it to put batter boards up for my fence at my house. Stretched 400 ft of hose out and had the compressor still in the truck. Worth it when its gas and weighs a ton. Smells like gas though most of the time from fumes.

 

I'll get some better ones tomorrow

 

 

Wow TNT That nailgun is the only ryobi tool i own. I generally don't buy Ryobi but That tool is really convenient.

 

This is our 7x14 trailer . Yes, its as organized as it looks , and stays this way.

 

That is a great use of a 7x14. Do you find you often need items you can't store in there?
Do you keep a table saw and mitre saw in there also?

 

really nice and smart solutions guys!very useful post..:thumbsup:

 

Thx man.

 

Its in there. The consoles on left set up as a 4x8 work table and have arms that pull out and support table saw. Miter stand slide s in same "garage" just above . its wired with 110 and has compressor built in..(tank drains through floor) .more pics shortly

 

Here are more pics

 

To answer your question...yes and no....we have task specific boxes and all basic material to remodeling and finish carpentry....and room to spare. Its really been a process of finding out what we want (just added 16d hand drive nails in a dedicated bin) and what we don't need ( extra spools etc for shaper/sander going out ). Its organized to the point if I'm missing something it tells me .

 

I'm still in the process of getting organized. I've got a few lboxxes so far. I'd prefer to go the ridgid route like tnt did but I can't get then in canada.

 

The dewalt tough system is similar. I have no complaints so far

 

As soon as I get around to buying a trailer, we'll do the floor like this one. A couple of cabinets and few bins and we'll be completely organized.

Except for the big huge pile of crap in the shop.

 

A little messy right now
It's 7x16
I would like a 7x24!

 

6x12 love having a trailer!

 

Here's my disgrace of a trailer. I was really hoping this was a trailer give away. I could go for a larger one. This 5x8 isn't cutting it.

 

I used a 5x8 for 6months. It was no fun at all. Moved to a 7x16 for a bit and it was massive then got a 7x14 and it's just right.

 

Who put the tools inside of this 5x8 trailer? It's going to be hard to afford a better setup with this kind of thing going on. Nothing like making sure tomorrow get's off to a bad start. Not to mention the treatment of the levels.

 

Yes I am ashamed of the state of my trailer and truck. Hopefully I'll have time to organize the trailer this afternoon, and I'll tell the rookie that I will loose my mind on him if he doesn't put things back where they were grabbed from.

I had the thing in mint condition before I started framing a duplex for this guy. And it stayed pretty clean until we left for the next house. Need to get in the habbit of not just throwing everything in on the last day just to get out and onto the next place.

 

8 x 24 trailer, can only post 1 pic at a time!
