Milwaukee Tools

Option C? The 26" rolling tool cart. This is what I used with my Tonneau Cover (before I went full Packout Cart with the removable handle mod).

Stackable.

 

I still suggest to my local Milwaukee rep that they make a similar sized packout cart with the horizontal handle.

 

100000% my first choice. Home Depot does not seem to be carrying it anymore. Where I am it is listed as $59 but not in stock within 100 miles. My wife is out of town and within 12 miles of a HD that has one (and everywhere else I look) has it at $48!!!

My wife doesn’t want to go an hour out of her way on a whim tomorrow.

 

If it's gonna work for you a road trip may be in order.

i had one for 2 days. way too large, barely fit on the work van. we keep some of the slightly shorter husky boxes like the one above at work for some job-specific materials. hinge broke a year ago, plastic plumbing pipe strapping has taken it's place, still going strong.

 

Agree. I've seen that coffin in person. Way too big. Would need a ramp to get a fully loaded one into a vehicle.

 

There are 4 HD within a 40 minute drive of me, one said limited quantities but I couldn’t buy online and no ship to home.

I headed over there this morning, lo and behold there it was in all its glory the last one on the top of the racks ready to be cherry picked.

I scooped it up, it rung up at $59.98 and I was like whoa! Wait. It says $47.98 on my phone app, and on the website through my browser it said $49.98. I went to customer service they checked me out at $47.98 with no fussing! Great experience. I also grabbed another connect tool box that fits speed clamps and tape measurers great.



Great day of reinvesting into HD.


With my luck in one month I’ll find out they have a new rolling tote that is $79 that doubles as a project table. With collapsable legs.

 

@Sig45 As requested..

I probably had room for a few more though but this should be good for now.

 

BOOM!!!

 

Are you hiring

 

This looks like one of those theft ring bust photos. Where all the products are on display.

Ive got the invoice and paper trail of like sixteen emails from my ten bosses to order it though so Im good.
(That and Im not a thieving piece of shit..)

 

Been using that installation driver on a current kitchen cabinet installation. I'm loving the ergonomics of it. It's been effortlessly removing & driving all the various cabinet related screws.

 

lol, i half expected you got the tundra for free after that order!

the trim carpenters on the job the other day:

 

Yeah, when you buy $6k worth of Milwaukee gear you get a $33k Tundra for the discount price of $33k.

 

The representatives have F150s.
My wife wants the Milwaukee truck bad. It’s so odd to me, I mean I like my Milwaukee tools but why would I want Milwaukee in big white letters on the side of my shiny red truck?

 

Tool update. So after some contemplation and some trial & error, I've sold the Metabo (same price as I paid, $300). The whole saw/stand assembly was just too big/bulky for me to get into and out of my truck solo. Probably a better setup for someone with a trailer where it can simply be rolled out.

And I was able to sell that 25+ yeal old Delta for $50.

And I found a gently used (1 time) Bosch jobsite table saw and stand for $200. So much easier to move around and into my truck bed. Made a few test cuts and it works great and so much better that old Delta.

Live & Learn!

 

Figure you got your truck park right next to the pile. Easy loading.

 

my dewalt 745 table saw died a few weeks ago. I could probably fix it, but my wife insisted that I get a newer one. It’s pretty much the same thing, except the table is actually perfectly flat and the miter slots to the blade were actually square. Measured with a dial mic.
