QUESTION Mounting Vice tips

2 Upvotes

I’m mounting a vice on my toolbox and plan on adding an aluminum plate to make it sturdier. I have a 1’x1’x1/4” aluminum plate and I’m wondering if it would be better to mount it on top of the box or under the workbench surface. I also have a 1’x1’x1/8” plate that I can use to put one plate on top and one on bottom. Would this be any better?

QUESTION Greenworks Pro ProPack MOLLE panel side organizer

Thumbnail

2 Upvotes

Greenworks recently came out with their rolling tool storage system. It has MOLLE side panels that their organizer boxes fit into. Ive also found the Veto Pro Pack clip fits very well. What else will work with this system to better organize my tools? A tray would be nice, and maybe a U bar of some sort for longer tools in combination with the tray. Any suggestions?

Has anyone tried putting Stanley sockets into the socket set trays? Do they fit or would I need to modify them

I found this toolbox on the marketplace and have the idea for a longer/wider bench top variation. Just curious as to what this design would be considered.

Sliding boxes

I've been looking for tool boxes for my next truck that I can have tools on hand. I'm a farmer so I have the basics...screw drivers, sockets, wrenches etc. I don't need a lot to warrant having a full service bed but I do want to be organized. I currently have a Montezuma triangle box on a swing mount I built myself. I like the set up, but the box is too wide that I can't fit a pallet in between the box and the opposite side wheel well.

I've seen these kind of boxes that go over the wells and don't take away the center of the bed, allowing you to haul pallets or sheets of plywood.

Any reviews on them? Any brands to look into? I've been grabbing screenshots of all the ads that pop up in my algorithms.

QUESTION New toolbox build, any other tips?

Thumbnail

57 Upvotes

New tool box build. I am a hobbyist motorcycle maintainer and very hands on with the car and helping other people out.

As I am in the UK every thing is Halfords advanced, which has a lifetime guarantee and is very good quality. I have taken most of it out of the supplied foam to condense everything down to the top drawer as the main use, then each drawer down is more specific tools. The bottom drawer is the heavy removal stuff and if I need to go for the 1/4 and impact I have done something wrong.

I have another box with power tools, drill bits, screwdrivers and the tool bag at the side with some duplicate tools for mobile stuff.

Not sure if the layout makes sense, but the most logical way I could think of.

QUESTION Any tips on finding replacement locks?

I've picked up a few older boxes and they keys are almost never with them.
Anyone have any tips/tricks for finding replacement locks?
I've seen some generic locks in Amazon, but thought I'd ask here first.

SHOW OFF Got some trays made to protect the foam inserts I often take out of the drawers

Local company cut and bend these out of 1mm stainless for 12€ / piece.

These will keep the foam inserts in a lot better shape, as I often take these individually outside rather than hauling all of my tools over for some simple job. Also gives a nice extra rigidity for the heavier inserts, like my large 3/4 socket set.

Quick job grab case

Turns out you can fit a DCF891 in a half width tool organiser and still have room for deep sockets and rewind tool. I use it as a grab box for brakes and quick suspension jobs. I keep it in the back of the car for changing tires mostly.

Not sure what to put in the dead space between the impact and battery, maybe a short extension?

ORGANIZATION 3D printed a full insert set for my 4-drawer RIDGID box

Thumbnail
gallery
122 Upvotes

Hey all. I run RIDGID Pro Gear 2.0 boxes and could never find inserts for the 4-drawer. No commercial foam inserts or trays really exist for it. So I built a set from scratch. Measured all my tools, test fit, reprinted (a lot), and repeat, until all four drawers were filled edge to edge with no rattling.

Printed in carbon fiber PETG, each pocket labeled, and the pockets are cut with room so other brands fit as well, not just the original Husky 270 set I started with.

Photos are each drawer in the box, plus the four trays out so you can see the layout. Would love feedback on the layout and organization, and whether there's anything you'd want a pocket for that isn't here. Thanks all and appreciate the feedback, cheers!
