Jarrod you’re always thinking my friend! You just won the internet for today!

Two piece mold?

maybe its because if its facing outward the second stack could fall off when moving the tool box or going up a stair case

The mold can be built with opposing slides or collapsible cores, but the complexity, size, and maintenance of the injection mold (and cost) go waaaaaay up.

It may be for a future box that is the same length but thinner.

The only problem is the seal. You'd either have to have a rib going down the center, this making it two individual bins, or have an overlapping seal. The third option would be to have one smaller lid/opening, similar to some of those coolers you see that have a quick access. The other problem I just thought of is that once you cut into it, you also degrade the ability to hold as much weight, the integrity is degraded.

@Jeremiah McKenna good point(s)

I agree that the long lid should be split into two parts. Maybe a DIY.

If someone really wanted to change the direction of the stacks, they could make a low profile adaptor plate that would change the cleat directions. Wouldn’t add too much height either, maybe 1/2” to 1”. But the plastic locking lever would need some reinforcement or somethin..

Why not have the engineer use it practically first? 😂😂😂 Seriously though... How many meetings were held at Milwaukee headquarters before placing the box into production?

You’re totally right, but will not be buying it, cause I already did. 😂

It's that way because of the molding process. Think about it.

​@raiderc9471 that's what I'm hoping someone does asap lol

Adding a solution to the inside of the lid, for the square, is where my head is at also

Yep... totally agree...

Me too , once I’ve paid for it , Modding’s cool !

great idea however for me drilling small holes means I would then want to seal those holes to prevent rain water from getting in.

@@minimonkeyplay You don't drill through the lid. Just through the rib. Still water tight.

This task was appointed to you, and if you do not find a way, no one will.

@@meme5887 "THIS....IS...THE COOL GANG!!!! 🦵

On my triple stack it completely frustrated me. I now have the 3 drawer and 2 drawer. I made the foolish decision to have the small wheel dolly under it. On yards and fencing sites I can't get the drawers into the site easily with the smaller wheels. Yet the triple stack goes really well. So I just moved my drawer stack onto the big box where I keep my saws all, power saw and stapler. Everything I have is now cordless and this setup works good and my clear top larger organizer holds everything else I need.This seems to work better with the larger wheels. One haul and most of my tools are on site.

You hit on most of the bullet points I thought of too after checking this out at the depot myself. Also: even after you stack your 2 sets of boxes, one set faces in for some strange reason, making it difficult to get to that stack (why Milwaukee did you not design both stacks facing out?????).

I imagine I could fit all my drop cloths in one of the longer boxes. Super weird for you to make excuses for something you think we wouldn’t need.

🤣🤣

Glad you like it Erik!

What if? What if they lock in from the side instead of top to bottom?

There's a smaller version that's slightly cheaper. It's more comparable to the Milwaukee.

Get the cybertruck when it comes out

The newer husky ones have the husky connect system built into them as well. And I forget but I think the husky ones are made here in the United states

The new husky connect is only $69

I have the regular 3 piece packout, im a technician for wood processing machinery, the tool box weights around 200lb. Hurt my back lifting it into my van, now I installed a mobility scooter hoist in the back of my van, and use it to lift the tool box right into my van with a click of a bouton😎

Thanks Bill we appreciate it! 👍🏻

I picked one up for 25 percent off. We'll see how it works out

Husky makes a larger one that's super tough for 40$ I have all milwaukee but I'm not paying 200 for that box. It's just not worth that.

@@onlyicedcrybaby7297I don’t see that anywhere I see one for 80 and one without wheels for 35

I was thinking the same thing. Seems like such a simple idea.

I've used those husky boxes and they're a bit on the flimsy side. There's no way you could fill it to the top with even mediumly heavy items like drop cloths and paint cans. Might make a couple trips but would give out after being thrown in and out of a truck a couple times. The latches, walls, and lid are way better on the Milwaukee. It looks like you could fill it all the way with heavy ish items like tools and it will hold. Carrying it will be a different story

@@MichaelSotoCE yup, mine gave when it was full of tools. it was over limit, but its expected that a large box is going to be super heavy. i have packout and would rather have to carry two different boxes than to go back to husky (or other brands)

Paint cans…. Lol

So $100 for the husky box then $60 for the mounts and you’re not too far off from the Packout. Also the packout is more heavy duty, those husky boxes are ok if you’re never going to move them

Where would you find these?

Where do I find ?

I wouldn’t disagree with you Stephen, I think cost is a big factor!

My trailer is wall stacked with rigid, one strap @ end of day...done...my big tote is stationary in truck. 1 packout 3 fits perfect in my third door, main packout 3 is in back of bed with all my filled/labeled 🪣 s, levels and squares and all that have their spot on the side, and it's funny to me, but the big husky tote handle slides right to the side if the bed, I use it to "jump" and grab...say the radio or whatever on the opposite side lol. Very handy. But Mainly stationary bcuz the one time WE lifted it our to roll on away, husky said "what axle?" 😄

Should see how much this Milwaukee packout costs in Australia, not worth it

My ridged broke after a year of daily use handle snaped right off I would have been right around the weight rating but still if the Milwaukee lasts longer I’d say it may be worth the cost imo

@@beasyphone That's awesome Thank you for sharing !!!!!

Sometimes the second kinda cool is all it needs to be!

Framing squares are made of aluminum.

Denis: Magnets, that is a great idea. My framing squares are steel , I went and checked with a magnet, maybe it is because they are 40 years old. They are still good and I use them all the time.

I think they do it that way so if you’re working out of your truck you can access them both from the front or you would have to pull the whole chest out to disconnect the back one

Its to stuff crap in between like coat or a thermos.

Its to make sure your packout doesn't go sliding off the top of it isn't locked all the way.

@@ThunderCat19D Was coming down to say that. If your stack isn't latched in, or a latch fails, gravity will hold your boxes on. If you had some facing down instead of up, those could fall off. It's less visually appealing and a bit less usable as is, but more safe.

@@25Nightops right on the money

My ultimate favorite was last year at $109, I don’t ever think we’ll see that again! Thanks Aepek!

That would be super functional but it would allow all the weight to go to one side which increases the likelihood of tipping.

Nope little guy

I think they are just well looked after

They are $199 at ACE and HD right now for black friday

It’s 320 now and only that price on Black Friday. Inflations a bitch

Wow you got a lot in that middle box!

@@VCGConstruction So my grinder is in my middle box, not my bottom. Had to correct myself.

Probably put lockout legs on the Milwaukee to hold a miter saw you'd sell a million.

I'm planning to buy the Husky. The 2x4 sized slots on the lid are brilliant.

@@hughbrackett343 I use it on vacations to hold wife's luggage. That angled area for round takes a strap perfect through the bullrings.

@@Kothas01 Judging from the reviews, the Horsey crowd are nuts for it. Folks also like the Dewalt for their gear but too many people mentioned the latches breaking vs. no durability issues for the Husky.

@@hughbrackett343 the husky was like 79 bucks pre covid. A pos cubby container is 49 in a comparable size. No brainer.

🤣🤣 the struggle is real cuz!

Or when you have the helper run ahead and prop the door open with a fire extinguisher

Wow that’s an awesome idea!

Hi!

@@joeywilliams6516 nice

We appreciate your feedback Michael! 👍🏻

Not to be mean but they should go get ther own tools that's what makes you worth more money in the first place when a man has the tools he has better knolage of the trade and more respect because he earned it and is more independent bottom line don't pamper your employees recognize the ones set out to buy the tools to do the trade and reward them!!! For hard work!!!

$230. For a plastic box

Spray it red, get a Milwaukee decal, and screw 2 packout mounting plates onto it!

Amen... to hell with the entire packout price! I've had 2 and regretted both times that's why I sold all my Milwaukee and went to DeWalt and Hart

@@dragonsofthunder I can understand selling your packout system/boxes if they weren’t working for you, nothing is more irritating than having boxes that don’t work for you personally due to size, depth, quality, etc., but what I don’t understand is why You chose to go from a quality tool line to an inferior tool line? I used to be a diehard, loyal as hell, team yellow fan also but then it would have been around 2000 or so +/- when their quality did a nose dive off a 14k foot mountain side and I had several new tools failing within months of purchase and warranty repairs were taking months due to parts on back order etc and I looked over and had 4 cordless red drills at the time that were 10+ years old and still using the original batteries but one and I already had the original sawzall ad some other misc red tools that were holding up extremely well for the abuse I was throwing at them. I replaced everything that was yellow/black with the comparable red tool and I have never been happier ! Especially with the last several years of new tool development they have come out with. I know how we use them affects how we view them to some degree and each one of us are different, but I just don’t think I will ever be able to go back to yellow ever again after all of the good experiences I’ve had with my red and all of the new tools they have been pumping out the past several years. It really doesn’t matter tho as long as your happy with your line, I’m happy with my line, and everyone else is happy with their ryobi’s! 😬 Take care man and be safe out there wherever your at

@@1982MCI I'm doing home remodeling and building lizard terrariums bro so I don't need Milwaukee and it's a waste of money. If I was doing heavy duty stuff I'd still be with Milwaukee. I was tired of the prices and fan boys

🤣🤣👍🏻

Milwaukee and Ryobi are both divisions of TTI.

Maybe they’ll do a larger version?

@@VCGConstruction Vince I was up in in Milwaukee yesterday at the Corp headquarters and told them about this. BTY They liked my Red and white Very cool gang hat. Hopefully they will fix the way that the boxes attached to the top like you showed. I didn't catch that when I look at that thank you for pointing that out. Have a wonderful day and enjoy the weekend.

I hope that they do make a box for the Miter and/or Table Saws. It only makes sense.

@@VCGConstruction If they do a deep version, (24-28inches maybe) I'll be the first to buy it.

Yeah, they'll have to make one as large as the Husky box Vince has in this video. However, you CAN buy the cleats and receivers and attach them to the top of the Husky box, and then attach the other Packout boxes to the top of that one.

It does have slots on the inside for you to slide organizers in there

Or a cooler…..

I have the husky box and a lot of pack outs. Wouldn’t be hard to put a pack out mounting plate on the husky

My large husky boxes don’t owe me a dime.

You have my admiration Andrew!
