Great advice, it looks really good. Only problem is there is a limit of three per customer! ;-) Do you have a link to the small parts boxes on Amazon that you mentioned? On Fri, Apr 30, 2021 at 7:33 AM Jeff Salzman via vcf-midatlantic < vcf-midatlantic@lists.vcfed.org> wrote:
Someone at the April Workshop asked me about the stackable tool case I bring to the workshops. I forget who it was. It might have been Bill. This message is just an FYI. I realize we all have our personal preferences with these things.
The one I have was a Christmas gift from a few years ago. I was shopping around for an additional stackable box for my "rolling tower" and I came across the item on the Home Depot website. If you are looking for a stackable tool case for hauling your gear around, you can find the entire three box set for only $130 at Home Depot. Weirdly enough, the same set is $170 at Amazon.

I highly recommend it if you are looking for a wheeled means to move your gear around that can also be easily broken down for vehicle transport. In mine, I carry (among other things) a reworking station, parts drawer kit, cleaning supplies, paper towels, screwdriver sets, Rigol oscilloscope, workbench tool supplies (pliers, etc.) cables, adapters, tabletop worklight, spare parts, and more.
For me, I wanted to carry more small parts to the workshop. For that, more of the compartmentalized smaller top boxes would be suitable for that. Those I found on Amazon at 2 for $70, which are stackable on top of my existing set of cases.
Again, this is just an FYI. This set has worked well for me for a long time. When I saw how relatively affordable it was, I just wanted to share the information to those who were looking for a similar solution.
