General Field Box

[bigone5500]

It may have been posted here before but I am looking for some ideas for a field box for my trucks. Currently I am using a box from harbor freight and it is ok but the storage is not really that great. The removable organizers are nice but the divider customization is lacking. I can't set it up as I want to.

What have/do you guys use to haul your gear in?

A very large tackle box that I have been using for years lol.

I've thought about getting a big tackle box but those are so expensive. Maybe I'll see what academy or bass pro has.

Take a picture of yours so I can get a general idea of what to look for. I have kinda an idea but

I tried to find a picture of it, but can't. And it's just too friggin hot to go outside right now. It has a large top with 4 drawers behind a brownish door. It's mainly green with I think a brownish lid. Yea, that should be all the info you need.

Here is my tool box. It`s a technician`s tool box from Home Depot. I got it for $40, a few years ago.

Okay Geena, I'm going to need some closer pictures of that setup. I like that.

I`ll make a video of the contents tomorrow after work.

I just read that is a technicians field box. Do all of the holders come with it?

Yes. all the holders are molded right into the lid liner. It also comes with that black box on the left side.

Nice. I may have to see if they still sell those.

You know, they have boxes similar to that at harbor freight. The boxes I'm talking about are silver and come with removable tool holders. I have a three of them. Two of which hold small helis and the other holds tools and parts. I totally forgot about them. Thanks for reminding me Geena! Are those Pelican cases?

No, the one I have is Husky branded, from Home Depot. But a company called Keeter, actually makes it.

I'll check them out next time I'm there.

Yeah, my husband has one of these. It`s a cool tool box, but I like the Keeter one more.

 

[bigone5500]

FYI, the boxes come with one tool holder each. I stole one from another box and put it in the other.

The only thing I don't like about the HF boxes is those tool holders are vinyl. The ones that Geena posted are hard plastic. I have already ripped the tool holder that I have for my box and I don't even use it lol. The box is my charging case lmao.
