b&q tool box for me

Are you sure you haven't got one made of 10mm ply Brian :smilewinkgrin:

I just pile everything in my washboy and a gorilla tub. Saves on trips to the van as you've gotta bring both of them in to the job most the time anyway

Got one of these last month after my old box fell to bits and was running out of space:
Stanley FatMax Cantilever Rolling Workshop | Power Tools Direct

Only downside is that the top tray doesn't detach, but keep trowels, hammers etc in the base, screwdrivers/chisels in the middle and small tools in the top.

Used to have power tools in their individual boxes but most of them fit into a couple of Bosch Sortimo boxes now

Most hand tools in a tool box, trowels in an ex recycling box, occassional hand tools in another ex recycling box, power tools in their cases. I try & keep my van tidy - everything in its place and a place for eveything.

Stanley fat max tote bag for small hand tools and buckets for trowels, floats and sponges

 

[hillhead]

I'v tried various ones over the years, fat max etc boxes, bags and lately totes !!
But i 'v now bought two Dewalt tough boxes, a 400 and a 300 one! they lock together too which is great for stacking etc.
I'm using the 300 box for all my day to day handtools and the 400 is for the heavier stuff.
My power tools are all in their proper boxes.

i used to think that way but i found that i never had the tool i needed even thow i thought i had it.
i then put everything in boxs specific tot he tool or job being done. i now find that i have everything i need or nothing

I'd be a bit of a sucker for having everything organised in it's place and know exactly where something is in my box rather than wondering if it's in the Blue Star bucket or the Eclipse bucket. :lol:

Plus, I can bring in the one box and has more or less every tool I need on the job, trowels, saws, hammers, chisels, marking tools, grips etc. Would bring stuff in in a bucket if it's only a small patching job where I only need a few tools, but nothing worse than running in and out to the van all day if you forgot to put a squarehead screwdriver or spare stanley blade in your bucket.

Dewalt Tough Boxes get my vote for being the best out there at the moment... I've taken mine to the next level and racked my Van with them... Got the trolley system too, so I can remove any of my tool boxes and then clip them to the trolley an lug onto site..

Works for me....
