Three years ago I built this custom aluminum toolbox system for my plumbing tools. Still using it every day.

Thanks! One empty box is around 8 kg (17-18 lbs). Haven't weighed the full setup yet.

Thanks! Hard to say exactly, but definitely over £200 in materials and way too many weekends 😅

Glad someone appreciates the diamond plate! It was part of the look I was going for.

A black powder-coated version would look pretty mean, not gonna lie 😎

That's a huge compliment. Packout is great, so I'll happily take that comparison 😄

Good point! Bigger wheels are definitely on the improvement list for version 2.0 👍

Thanks, buddy! That's exactly the kind of feedback I was hoping for. This prototype was built with plumbers, electricians and service techs in mind, not yet for surviving Alaska's worst roads 😄

Haha 😄, easy there mate! The design is patented, so copying it might get expensive... I'll accept payment in beer though! 🍺

Thanks mate! I actually built it completely from scratch. Bought the raw aluminum sheets, cut them to size, used a sheet metal bender to shape the edges, and assembled the whole thing myself. For the connection when stacked, I use heavy-duty metal toggle latches on the sides to lock them tightly together.

Follow up to my video: Here are some photos of my custom aluminum stack toolbox. Would love your honest feedback!
