How do you guys store your multitools?
on: April 24, 2009, 07:17:13 PM
My first Tool, The Wave, wasn't a problem to store in a drawer, but now the collection is expanding I need some good ideas..
I've found this "suitcase" from a powertool which I'm using at the moment, but soon they wont fit there anymore.. :)

I'm loving the Snap on lookee likee chests, really nice set up for them.

As my collection/budget is (currently) far more modest I just use some cheap wooden drawers from (dare I say it?!) Ikea. They are the ones that take about an A4 size for filing and come in 3 layers. They serve as my bedside EDC receptacle  :D

Found the link

£7.99 not bad really and they can be painted/varnished up nicely.

I have one stored in the little compartment under the seat of my riding lawn mower, I have another one stored where I work, I have another one stored in my truck.

Do you like the boxes or what's in them??

The silver boxes did I buy from Clas Ohlson. It's a shame that you don't have Clas Ohlson in Denmark. We got them in Norway, Sweden, Finland and UK.
