Nice review. Not too long, not too short, and to the point. Well done!
Thanks its my first of many
Good job! Check out the Bosch l-boxx too! Phenomenal boxes, the guys here did a great review. I’ve got four of them now!
Thanks
I wonder when Milwaukee will come out with a box system.

I’ve been wondering the same thing. Bosch and Dewalt have both stepped up their game on the storage front.
Yeah storage and organization is becoming a big thing now
Just an observation would’nt you be better off taking the dividers off and putting the batteries on the tools? Could you try that and let me know if they fit because I just got them and don’t like having them in the bag so I am considering buying that tool box. Thank You.
No problem. When I get home I will do that.
It’s funny but I really liked tool baga but I bought a Bosch PS31 drill with the l-boxx on special at Amazon. It came with 2 l-boxx’. Now…I love the hard line boxes. My Wife bought me an awesome Husky folding tool tote that I have converted completely for carrying all of my Kregg Jig components and screws. Awesome storage box.
Yeah I like the soft sided tool storage for my hand tools instead of digging through a box

I could not get my video to upload of it but, the tools easily fit with the batteries on and the dividers taken out. They also fit perfectly with 3.0 batteries on them. I hoped this helped.
I always hated the blow molded cases and only use them with tools I don’t use as often like my corded recip saw and D-Handle SDS. They offer good protection, but they take up a lot of space and if you don’t use them you hate to throw them away, but they’re a bitch to store. I have 2 Milwaukee contractor bags and when going out on a project I can typically fit everything in them. These new storage systems solve a lot of problems the blow molds presented. In my opinion this was one of the longest overdue updates in tools. They took something barely useful and made it something utilitarian and desirable. I really hope Milwaukee follows suit.
Yeah my whole shelf under my workbench is all of the blow molded boxes. I do like the new storage systems and im surprised Milwaukee hasn’t come out with anything yet.
I would love a Milwaukee version! someone needs to talk to them about this haha
yes you would think they would come out with something to compete with the Boscsh I-Box and DeWalt tough box

I’m still trying to get an M12 pop rivet gun out of them, lol.
I like the bags when I have to carry a couple of things aound but they dont fit in my truck tool box that great and makes it really hard to organize it. But I guess its just my personal preference. For my circular saw and recip I love the bag but just for that. Does anybody know if they make a hard case for the 20v hammerdrill n impact kit?
I like bags for when I bring my hand tools to a job.

The kit I bought my dad came with one.
I did see kits at lowes that had bags.

Here is you go. Sorry it took so long
I also use bags for all of my tools but I would love a tote to keep everything really safe during my travels
yeah the boxes do a good job when you drop your tools.
Thanks for the vid. Chase.
No Problem
Well Done Chase 🙂
