Fantastic job

[@cabinetshopchronicles4198]

Thank you!

[@harrisonknott85]

Nice job guys.

[@cabinetshopchronicles4198]

Thank you!

[@sidrodriguez5550]

I like it good job. I have been wanting to do that for a long time. you gave me some good ideas.

[@cabinetshopchronicles4198]

Cool. Steal any ideas you want. 😁

[@ThePohto]

Nice im going to do that to mine..Thanks

[@cabinetshopchronicles4198]

@@ThePohto I’ve been super happy that I don’t have to tear the whole stack down to get a little piece out of the bottom. 😁

[@ThePohto]

@cabinetshopchronicles4198 Yea im getting tired of that to..I know they are making one with a drawer now..But it's like 250 from what I hear..This will be my next project

[@electrified7309]

Very good idea. I've been complaining for a long time about the fact that you have to take everything off to get to the base box so I don't use it much so it's really useless. I was thinking about cutting a hole in the back of it but I like your idea better. 💡

[@cabinetshopchronicles4198]

We have used it a lot. No problems.

[@Tektonbc]

Way better this way, unstacking is a pain.

[@cabinetshopchronicles4198]

For sure

[@Joshuaellis420]

Nice

[@cabinetshopchronicles4198]

Thanks

Nice job Guys, very impressive your Engineering Skills at a young age. I’ll be doing some of what you did to mine. Stubborn Milwaukee still won’t figure out all of us builders are asking for a door Or preferably drawers in the bottom box. Wake up Milwaukee! The only correction I would make is to not cut into the side corner supports just make the door a little narrower. You also could have made the bottom of the door cut straight we’re you cut above the lifting handle. You really gain enough by cutting around the lift handle all the way to the bottom. Still a great effort and job you did in fabricating a door. I’ve worked on 4-Hollywood Movies in Special Effects and what you did is what we do daily, all day, trying new things. “Most Impressive” as Star Wars Darth Vader would say. 💪🙏

[@cabinetshopchronicles4198]

Thanks. It has been incredibly useful.

[@johankumps8312]

same problem here :) good id!!!

[@cabinetshopchronicles4198]

Thanks

[@prophetseven728]

The bottom one should be a pull out or or have some type of Door! It on the bottom. Only one when I have them stacked. That i have to take the ones on top off. It annoying. The others I can leave on and left the lid.

[@cabinetshopchronicles4198]

Agree!

[@recyclespinning9839]

Great idea, now you don't have to unstack and have a portable work station. I still think you need a cross brace on the bottom to make the bottom strong. Mikwaukee needs to make an option like this. I have the Rigid, and have to unstack in a customer's home. It would be nice to not have to unstack.. I'm hoping Rigid makes one . I think there's are less bulky and simple to stack and unstack. You still have to do that in twice a day , going in and out of a job...

[@davidda7287]

good work! how you get in the littile tool box on top trolly tool box?

[@MaximSupernov]

I think you should add some rubber seals around the edges of the opening.

[@cabinetshopchronicles4198]

I would love to. But I haven’t figured out how to do that.

[@zjedinite]

@@cabinetshopchronicles4198 Perhaps automotive door edge molding. It’s a thin black self adhesive small u shape rubber “ gasket “ it might work on the door side. 🤞🏽🤞🏽🤞🏽just an idea…. Good job btw 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽

[@kevingotchal1992]

I'm interested in seeing the compressor set up. Where can I see that? Also, I like the door mod!

[@cabinetshopchronicles4198]

That’s a good idea. I’ll get that on the list. Subscribe and you will know when it drops. 👍

[@JWimpy]

Good job, and useful. But you do know that Milwaukee is coming out with one just like that?

[@cabinetshopchronicles4198]

Just my luck. No didn’t know that. 🤣 how dare they steal my idea. 😀

[@cabinetshopchronicles4198]

I saw something similar but it was not on the base unit.

[@eduinmartinez4943]

Still waiting on Milwaukee

[@infinitetoolz6046]

Now They have drawer

[@thotchs4116]

Is it water proof ?

[@cabinetshopchronicles4198]

It could be. But I don’t use it outdoors so I didn’t make any attempt to make it seal up

[@sharkatk9]

Great job! I have wanted to do this but was afraid to cut it and compromise the strength. But It looks like it is still plenty strong?

[@cabinetshopchronicles4198]

It hasn’t caused any problems! We love it!

[@Magicinstalls]

Packed out rolling drawer came two years too late for you…

[@cabinetshopchronicles4198]

@@Magicinstalls yup🤣

[@Sergei_Goidin]

If you would leave the plastic at the bottom uncut (let's say not fully cut), you woudn't need the hinges. I guess...

[@cabinetshopchronicles4198]

It would work for a while. But probably would get brittle and break off eventually

[@orignalgangstarknakd]

If you put it in a truck and the tools inside hit the door I think that would open.

[@cabinetshopchronicles4198]

It’s been a few years. Never happened yet. I use it all the time.

[@ropesman]

When your on a job why not just unstack everything while working and then re stack when you are done?

[@cabinetshopchronicles4198]

It’s for those times when it’s all packed away in the truck and you need that one tool out of the bottom. I can get it in seconds rather than unloading the whole stack and breaking it all down. And then putting it all back.

[@warped2875]

meh :-/ No longer weather-proof. Is it really that big of a deal to unstack and restack the stack? As long as it works for you and you are happy with it, I guess that is all that matters. I just roll out the stack to the jobsite, unstack everything, get the job done, put all the tools back in their respective boxes, stack them all up, and roll the whole shebang back to the starting point. Easy-peasy, extra greasy.

[@cabinetshopchronicles4198]

It rides in a panel van or is inside so weather proof isn’t a big deal. But when I have a six foot tall stack and need one small tool. This is way better

[@luislazcano5604]

Que terrible la modificación y parece que no conocen los remaches

[@cabinetshopchronicles4198]

I’m sorry you think it’s terrible. We like it.
