@@chris-pm5oymilwaukee is over priced and flimsy. Ridgid's newer drawer system is awesome. But they are insane. They did not make a single drawer box. So everything sucks. The classic sectional steel boxes are still the most sturdy and have the most space. But the modular systems can even be loaded in some cars.
That's pretty slick. Seeing that rolling mitersaw, I pictured that being used by flooring installers - you don't have to get up to cut - just roll the saw along with you.
For the money sure. But just like every other system on the market. It has its flaws. Plus the way they lock together is a massive pain. If your just a diyer sure no biggie but using them every day and getting in and out of the boxes all the time, is a major pain and why I sold mine. When time and money doesn’t count then sure. If it does look else where. You get what you pay for.
I don't use the boxes anymore because of the sheer pain of digging through it to get something. Not to mention putting things away. I only use drawers. I can't find out how to get the larger drawers yet, I have seen them on TH-cam.
I wasn't sure where that was going, but it all came together at the end. You can also put the medium box on the four wheel base and use it as a creeper stool.
I commented on this before. Great hack!!! I'm doing this except I'll retrofitting the Ridgid 4.5 gallon portable vac instead of the miter saw. U need to show some other hacks if u have them. This is by far the best one for the Ridgid mobile tool case stack.
Well done. I like seeing ridgid tools used so much. I have a lot of ridgid including their tool boxes and am very pleased. I hope ridgid comes out with new stuff to compete with Milwaukee packput.
Nice Hack! One has to wonder why Ridgid doesn't have stuff like this already? I think they really missed the boat when it comes to a portable tool storage system. The Milwaukee guys are all over this type of thing.
Wow nice job brother thanks for sharing, been 2 years since you posted this and Ridgid still didn't come out with something like this. Come on Ridgid we want more pack out options
i took a double cup holder and attached it to the bottom box on the front! holds my drink my tape measure and one other drink! it hasn’t been in my way actually works great! never lose my drink tape measure well that grows legs!
Ridgid is the Poor Man's Packout I love the Ridgid crates...they are only $20 each at Home Depot, half the price of the Milwaukee. I bought about 10 of them, everyone in the store, and pushed them out the door all stacked up...and use them for van storage among other things.
I have three crates stacked that I use for van storage in my Transit. The problem I've been trying to solve is a way to secure the bottom crate to the floor. Unfortunately Rigid doesn't make a mounting plate like Milwaukee. I think the dolly in this video (minus the wheels) might be my solution. I can bolt that to the floor and then the crates will look into that. You said you use yours for van storage, do have them secured in the vehicle? if so how did you do it?
I have been thinking about making an adapter for a Milwaukee pack out mounting plate. Don't get me wrong. I think that the Rigid Pro system is pretty darn perfect, but Rigid doesn't seem to be interested in making smaller organizer boxes and that is what I am interested in having.
That was brilliant! I especially like the utility you got out of the bottom of the crate as I also have that cordless miter saw and it would be great to be able to secure it to my stack of Ridgid boxes. I guess I need to buy a crate (the only piece that I don't have) and get to work!
This will work even better with the Ridgid Pro 2.0 with removeable wheels on the Large bottom box. Detach the wheel assembly and the bottom box will fit on the casters.
That was cool and all! And I'll definitely be doing that with my toolbox system! But what was going on with the other toolbox I saw you close up to stack with?!?! Look like it had a drop cord rolled up in it and it might have been modified to?? What did I see??
Ok.. now that was a good one ..I have sat in front of my cases for hours ..just staring at them ..I finally know why ..bro hat off to you ..now how much for the set ..I’m not kidding I’ll pay for it ..hit me up and let me know ..
I have done both of these, but in a less sophisticated way, I just attached the top section of a basket to an existing wheeled dolly I had. I have a larger compound mitre saw, so I made my top a little wider than the base of the basket and then installed packing pieces. Easier but not as neat. I like the way you made the wheeled dolly so I will probably copy that, I could do with another, I have a large collection of these toolboxes now. I wish they would sell the clear top organiser here in the UK it would be really useful. I just read a comment below about using a toolbox on top of the dolly as a wheeled seat. I think I'll use the base to make a comfy cushioned seat that clips onto a toolbox or basket.
@@customdesignnabelsi3613 My current idea is to take the medium sized box, install some small hold open struts to the lid, mount chargers to the lid, and store batteries in it. Basically a fully contained charging station. I saw one made with the Packout system that even had an exterior plug and the charger wires all zip tied and organized together. I think that would really help with my cordless tool management for now.
@@customdesignnabelsi3613 that's a great idea! I'm hoping to do the same but bigger with battery storage and maybe an exterior set of outlets so it acts as a power station for the jobsite.
got to admit, at first I was like what the F is he doing chopping up that crate, but then once I skipped thru the video a little bit I'm like damn that's pretty ingenious
Milwaukee has a pack out work top that I was thinking of using that same idea on the rigid system. I would probably use that more than having a saw on top of the boxes. I have a mitre saw as well but just don’t transport it that much. I do maintenance mostly more than remodeling and would benefit being able to put my tool bag on top of the system or using the top with a vice or something Like that.
Ridgid, Milwaukee, Stanley.......all made in Israel, probably by same company....all good so pick your price, size, flavor and what works for needs......going to get a wheeled lower box and then this crate in the vid..........
Definitely the same company. They're called Keter. Can't say for sure about Stanley, but I know they make the Ridgid Pro Tool Box system, DeWalt ToughSystem, and Milwaukee Packout.

Couple of things. Your shop.....way to organized. Oh, and the saw mount. Brilliant!
Thanks, but it's several years of installation, to get to that, and then we have new tools and the setup changes loll
These ideas are pure genius! I've never seen so much orange in one shop. I have some orange, some yellow, some green, some red, some other green....
Me too, if something is on a great sale I buy it as long as it is a decent brand. I got Red, Blue, Green and Orange.
Love the bottle opener. And comes with a drill!
i thought he was gonna just put a bottle opener on the box and call it done. LOL
I loved the dolly idea and then my mind was blown when the top turned into a miter saw stand. Amazing and I’m doing this for sure.
Further proving the point that all these stacks need to come with drawers, not chests.
Milwaukee has drawer boxes
They finally did 😅

HAHAHAHA🍻👍🏾

I just got my 22" ridgid system, All great ideas ! I wish they would just put out the 2 or 3 drawer box already ?
Man at first I was like what the hell??? Best idea ever tho. 💪
hahaha yes i know thank you very much👍🏾
haha, like others I was skeptical at first (and second) look - but you turned out two really solid ideas here, top to bottom!
Thank you very much my friend 👍🏾
Gotta admit I'm pleased by the result. Looks super clean and sharp, When you started cutting that box I was telling myself I hope he has a plan. lol
The Rigid System already outstanding and you basically Grand Slam with your modifications.

Love the originality.
A+
Very ingenious..now of course having ALL the proper tools helps
thank you, yes it helps
Buying a setup today, . . . and it looks like I'm buying the, not useless, basket, to make a dolly. Sweet build.

Wow nice job brother thanks for sharing, been 2 years since you posted this and Ridgid still didn't come out with something like this. Come on Ridgid we want more pack out options
Thanks, yes I know RIDGID lags a bit on the storage system
Found this video on accident but wow!! Nice work!!
Very Nice! Great ideas!
Merci 👍🏾
Two thumbs up. Very cool. Excellent job. 👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you very much!👍🏾👍🏾
You must have every rigid tool known to mankind awesome
Hahaha
Yes I think so, thank you
I’d consider back when the crates $20. Now they cost $35-40
Inspiring! Want to further organize my tools and mod their packouts.
nice idea! I just hope Ridgid starts making new addons to compete with Milwaukee.
Nice work. Would love to see a modification for the roller base as a 2 drawer unit.
i took a double cup holder and attached it to the bottom box on the front! holds my drink my tape measure and one other drink! it hasn’t been in my way actually works great! never lose my drink tape measure well that grows legs!
it's a very good idea
Using the same principle, you could make a decent work top table?
yes, indeed that would be an advantage
Innovative - love it.
Thank you! Cheers!

Ridgid needs to make that cordless 7 1/4 miter saw again... I should have picked one up before they discontinued it!

Don Wallace yes a case or a suitcase
great job Sir!
Great ideas and implementation!
Wow you got a lot of functionality out of that crate
im impressed. Two amazing ideas!
THE BELT CLIP IS A BOTTLE OPENER!!!
Also, I'm doing this tomorrow.
I literally just saw that part, right before I read this comment. Funny. And I gotta try that
Yea same here
Video idea: show how you organize your tools in the boxes.
Fade sound as the video ends.
Very good idea, nice to watch you work
thank you very much my friend 👍🏾
Mad Genius at work! That's just amazing!
Wow, thanks!👍🏾
You really should give Ridgid brand tools a fair chance, they are pretty good stuff.
Mount the saw to the dolly and you can skate the floor doing base board miters practically in place.
U rock! U got 2 very useful items from 1 crate. I have this system and will definitely be doing this!
Take my money right now 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thanks for sharing these great ideas!
That's a cool sanding machine
Bro u r AWESOME 💯👍
I GOING TO BUY ONE JUST FOR THIS 💯
Awesome but I’m not cutting my new Rigid boxes lol
Very cool! Thank you for sharing!
Ценная идея , возьму на заметку !👍
Awesome, when are you going to sell these. I'm a big ridgid fan and that would be good to have and I already have the storage boxes.
Nice. Pretty ingenious.
what were the measurements for the two cuts u ripped on the table saw??
Can you do a video on your charging box looks pretty interesting
Thats awesome. Now make a drawer unit please ;)
thank you , yes it's a good idea i thought about it and i'm working on something 👍🏾
This will work even better with the Ridgid Pro 2.0 with removeable wheels on the Large bottom box. Detach the wheel assembly and the bottom box will fit on the casters.
I can't wait to see the new ones in Canada
I don't think you can attach stuff to the bottom of the 25in main box... but I'm going to find out!
You got me inspired..im using Harbor tools to to Frankenstein my Rigid crate thx for the idea! 😂
Go for it!👍🏾
Excellent
Love this. Does anybody know if Ridgid has seen this? Yes I can build it but they should also add it to their product line
I second that. Milwaukee and Dewalt have optional casters available. I think Rigid should as well.
Shit milwaukee caster is 90 bucks
Harbor Freight Haul Master 10x12, throwing that out there. Working for me so far.
That was cool and all! And I'll definitely be doing that with my toolbox system! But what was going on with the other toolbox I saw you close up to stack with?!?! Look like it had a drop cord rolled up in it and it might have been modified to?? What did I see??
Whats in the box at 14:38 ? Did you mod the box for battery chargers built in???
Awesome idea!! great work!
Tell me again why Ridgid doesn't make bases like Milwaukee does?
🤷🏽♂️
great job!
thank you 😊
Supper cool ideas.
This guy is a Genius, you should be a Ridgid Engineer because some of their designs are not Par 4 the course!⛳
Merci beaucoup 👍🏾
SUPER USER!!
Ok.. now that was a good one ..I have sat in front of my cases for hours ..just staring at them ..I finally know why ..bro hat off to you ..now how much for the set ..I’m not kidding I’ll pay for it ..hit me up and let me know ..
Fantastic.
Given me a few ideas
Go for it!👍🏾
GREAT JOB I LOVE IT , SHOULD BE SELLING THAT...

Way cool!

Jeremy, look for the Magnusson brand in UK. In Russia, EU and Israel they go by Kenet or something similar.
@@w426a is keter the brand you are referring to? They manufacture the ridgid pro gear boxes.
very cool
Nice job guy
Great view. Do you happen to have any plans or build list?
No, sorry
Great job
If you have more ideas for these boxed, could you make videos? I'm invested in the system and now I want to get the most out of them.
of course ,thank you 😊

You got my sub just off the bottle opener! - top knotch!
Why don’t you just add a piece of 3/4” plywood on the bottom of a full crate box instead of destroying it? Same for the mitre saw base?
good idea
good one
Very nice!!! Good idea man!

where did you get that saw..... dammit Rigid!
Cool idea!
Thanks!👍🏾

😮 spectacular!
Did you make the round sanding block that holds da paper
Yes I made the wood washer with an old RIDGID sandblaster pad
Totally cool!
Awesome but dayum it took too long to get to the point!
