if it was about £85 I might have a look, but £500 thats rediculous

Its £230 just for a tote bag!!

It’s a ridiculous price. I would want a lifetime warranty. They know they have the market to say our bags are worth this price.
 
Only Artisan electricians could afford those bags!
 
I really can't believe a bag is worth anywhere near that money. Buy cheaper and put the rest towards the MFT.
 
no chance in hell.. Would not let the wife spend that much on a bag . other companies will offer better deals
Aldi has nice bags now and again.

No chance I wound even buy one. It’s tool storage at the end of the day.

Spend on what you need to do your job and worry about luxuries if you ever find money is rolling in faster than you can spend it.
I think even a spark earning a top wage would struggle to justify that price for a bag.
 
That man is a clown with his £30k rewires 😂
Chances are the big Youtubers get so many free gifts ...they have a large income selling them on ebay .I know of a watch review guy who sells every watch sent to him for reviewing .NONE of the companies want them back .he is making £3k a month flogging them !

I was tempted by the tstak trolley as I bring most of my expensive tools in every night but having thought about it I don't think they are practical for domestics.
I used a sgs wheeled toolbox when I was doing industrial and it worked great. I have a tuffbuilt handbag now and that is really useful.

What SGS one have you got?
 
What’s the metal like? As I was looking at a Beta.
It's a bit flimsy but I haven't had any issues. I suppose you get what you pay for at that price point. The beta looks nice.

They also do tool trolleys for just a pound
That was so dry it's taken me nearly 24 hours to understand - it only clicked when I drove past an Aldi an hour ago! Very good....!
As an avid fan of the 'middle of Lidl' I genuinely thought there was some crazy offer on....
 
We used to use a requisitioned supermarket shopping trolley when we used to do rewires in a large shopping centre.
 
Used to be a guy that went to some of the motorbike rallies with a bike trailer made of a supermarket trolley with an axle bolted underneath it. Could fit loads of camping gear in it. And beer. Obviously.

My late grandfather converted a wheelie bin into a mobility scooter trailer and used to roam around collecting broken mechanical objects to fix later.
This isn't him but it was a similar idea:

If you didn't mind 4mph it would hold quite a lot of tools and is perfect for 1000mm drill bits.
But this is getting too far off topic and we need to get back to sensible cost-effective practical advice.
Someone's now proved you can convert a Milliwauke Packout into an e-scooter:

It's clearly the way forwards. (Full story on Cory Mac's youtube channel)
 
I know someone who "found" a CO-OP "dolly" and in 20 mins transformed into a perfect wheeled Dolly for his "festool ' Systainer cases :-)

I’ve seen Veto are now doing wheeled tool bags. What’s everyone’s thoughts? Would anyone buy one:



Yeah, Ive lots of thoughts! Going back a few years ago I Bought their Tech XL Bag, BY FAR the best tool storage solution Ive Ever Used, This thing has no Damage, No Rips, The Zips all work and its been used Most Days. Due to the massive amount of thoughtfully designed pockets, tool access is instant, Ive also lost no tools since buying this bag, due to layout you can see instantly if anything is missing. Shortly After I purchased their XL Power Tool Tote, Their Utility Zipper Bags, Meter case etc. I have now outgrown the Tech XL and this week Just Purchased the Tech XL wheeler from Beesley's which comes with a free Tool Pouch on a promotion. Ive had all the regular bags & boxes from Stanley , CK, Facom, etc - Nothing comes close to Veto. If you enjoy your job, working efficiently and fast, and enjoy using quality tools - treat yourself you won't regret it.
 
Always worth checking Ebay for Veto gear. There is normally 70-80 Veto bags and totes for sale at anyone time in near new or very clean used condition at roughly 1/2 the retail price

There's a guy on ebay in Liverpool who sells this sort of stuff.
