Here’s my van

That is one sweet set up you have there. Everything nice and neat, I like that. Some very quality gear too.

Have you a transformer mounted into a tough box? Nice set up, more tools than I imagined a locksmith would need.

I use the term locksmith in a lose term , that’s what I served my apprenticeship in , but I do lots of things connected with security , 1 job could be fitting a lock to a aluminium door , next job making a new wooden door on site so it’s quite varied plus I get sent around the country on short notice so I need to have all my tools to hand

The toughbox power box , I used to keep a 110 box and leads etc in a Ds 400 , it was a pain to pack and in pack it , so I put a auto real lead in there , hard wired the 110 transformer , and fitted sockets etc on the out side , I’ll post some mor pics

Thanks for the complement

Welcome to the forum locksmithmatt…..What a nice clean set you have there, very organized and all those Dewalt boxes look cool 🙂

Nice setup you got there. The toughsystem van is becoming a common sight on the UK roads! 🙂

Liking the powerbox. Cool idea!

Thanks Mr Yellow , I drew inspiration from you and Rossi7x

I nicked a bit from each of you

I may change the van next year , but I would like to change WBP to buffalo ply

Im in the middle of changing the festool rack to a draw unit I’ll post more pics on completion

Ideas are to be nicked 😉

I like the buffalo ply. It holds up well, but it’s quite expensive. Another downside, it makes the interior even more dark, so you need some good lighting, but I see you got that covered.

Good one on the draw unit. I should’ve done that too. I only have one drawer, but now kinda miss having more.

Next time I’m gonna do some things differently. Surely more space for Toughboxes! 

Do you have a picture from the inside of the powerbox?

Also, how do you like that Bahco Ergo handsaw? I have the Stanley one, but they stopped selling it over here. Buying the blades from Germany now, but maybe going with Bahco in the end as I can get blades from the local suppliers here.

The bacho saw is fantastic , I won’t use another saw now , so comfy to use and blade change is easy , I’ll get you a pic of inside

Can you take a pic inside the power tough case

Oooooo not sure about that , it’s not very exciting in there ! Are there any electricians on here that might get a bit precious ?

Cheers. Guess I’ll just get one of those Ergo handles and a blade. I’ll get some use out of it 😉

What are the different size red boxes in a sliding drawer case near the desktop vacuum?
