Thank you for the thoughtful and helpful video. Exactly the Makpac test run I was searching for. Saved a great deal of trial and error with building up my kit. Cheers!

That intro music sounds like I tuned in to some 70's adult content

[@andyspropertysolutions5631]

Not my best choice. Lol

[@darealsparky480reyes6]

It's tool porn music.

[@yobryan88]

😂🤣

@@andyspropertysolutions5631 No! It was a great choice!

[@moakley]

loud porno music followed by wind and mumbling

[@CharlieSkapentry]

I have Hitachi stuff but it's practically the same. I keep my skillsaw, drill and impact and charger in a type 4 box, multi tool and jigsaw in a type 2. I made my own inserts from 6mm ply. Saves lugging loads of boxes about.

[@andyspropertysolutions5631]

Nice. I bet that looks good

[@addthisto]

I've been looking for something like this for days. Thank you.

[@jortega222]

Really excellent video and very helpful. Thank you so much!

[@elie_]

Thanks for the video! 1:22 This box is actually insane to have the two tools + charger + batteries + bits!

[@kevingray9479]

Thanks for taking the time to make this video. Very useful

[@yislam1]

The classic combi and impact case is a really excellent case. I modified mine with some PVC right angle pieces and some hot glue. It now holds a Makita LED light perfectly (the bar shaped version) and a bunch of other bits and pieces. Got a couple of MakPacs. They're ok I guess, but if my classic case broke I'd try and get another.

[@benpagett9520]

Hi mate were do you buy your inserts from

[@darkspeed62]

Really helpful video-thanks a lot! I've just purchased a new circular saw and needed to know which way to store it! This was helpful doe me to determine I need the type 3 or 4 case!

[@MrLuke6593]

with the sds maybe it would fit the other way around as the way you had it the lid dips down to account for the handle ?

[@Archy8550]

Perfect video Andy. Genuinely learnt more about these boxes here than watching 10 other videos combined. Out of interest what model multitool was that please? Wondering if same or similar size to my DTM51. Thank you.

[@jordanbriatte9078]

Dunno who so many dislikes, very helpfull video

[@andyspropertysolutions5631]

Not sure why. But it is what it is. I’ve bought a few more tools now so will try and do another video but maybe a bit more professional. Lol

[@dann5000]

Hi, good video. Can you recommend some where to buy the foam? Thanks

Hi Dan If your in the Uk then powertoolworld.co.uk Thanks

Thanks for showing the pull away foam.

Thank you for your help now I appreciate it I know what box to buy now for my tools

[@MrDaleosq2]

Thanks for this, found it really helpful

[@andyspropertysolutions5631]

Glad it helped

[@scottstillings8423]

Its nice they interlock but have you ever tried carrying a bunch of interlocking cases filled with Makita goodies around? Wish they would come up with a lower interlocking box with wheels and a handle like all the other tools companies have and make it cost effective. Maybe they have one but ive not seen it anywhere.

[@andyspropertysolutions5631]

They have the small sack borrow one.

[@PLiWorx]

Properly useful video 👍🏾👊🏾

Great video mate. Where do you buy the inserts ?

Just saved me £40 buying boxes that were too big, thanks mate

[@markshanahan2154]

Hi Andy, do you think that the combi-drill would stand upright in a makpac 3 (without battery and belt clip), or would I need the 4? Ideally I would like to have two combi drills stood up right, facing two impact drivers. Or all facing the same direction (front to back).

[@andyspropertysolutions5631]

Hi mark. I will try it tomorrow for you and post a video. I will post it on my FB page FB :Andys property solutions

[@markshanahan2154]

@@andyspropertysolutions5631 My other thought was laying the drill on its handle with the bit pointing upwards.

[@ozkan38]

Will a reciprocating saw fit in any of these?

[@JamieVauxnut1]

I can imagine how fun it would be going through all the boxes to collect all my batteries , i must have 20 batteries . I use the type 4 walls and bottom lined in yoga matt and store items i use together . Sds and heavy combi with bits , light drill , jigsaw and impactor for kitchens , collated gun, and drywall cutter . Box with 3 different size grinders etc etc , otherwise I'd need 3 vans for all the individually boxed tools . Bit tool tarty all the tools separate 😂 made me wince hearing a brit call it a skilsaw 🙉 nice video though , good job

[@andyspropertysolutions5631]

Cool Thanks for your comment , yeah I do like my tools to be tidy. Once they are stacked it doesn’t take up much room and I hate searching for things. Made me laugh about the skill saw. 😂. You need those makita battery clips in your van. A wall of batteries 😂

[@JamieVauxnut1]

@@andyspropertysolutions5631i had a giggle when i heard skilsaw more than once 😂 i really like the idea of having all my batteries clipped on a shelf in the van looks really smart i may do that for use during the day 👌 . Main reason i try to keep the boxes to a minimum is so i can take everything out , that said I've just bought two more type 4's . You know what its like with tool thefts from vans here in the uk . Happened to me last year so always take all the power tools out now and 'try' to just take what i need , but never happens always fill it just in case

[@prince2thethrone]

@@andyspropertysolutions5631 You're the real MVP... you explained everything i was wondering. thanks from the USA !!

[@Ist_Geheim]

Putting drills in a makpac size 1 only works as long as you don't put attechments on it like the bit holder or the belt clip.

[@lathamwoodman5939]

Great video perfectly explained

[@andyspropertysolutions5631]

Glad it was helpful!

[@Ist_Geheim]

My DJV182 jigsaw goes together with my DHS660 circular saw and all their accessories in one size 3 makpac. For me there is no foam needed and the jigsaw is leaning on the circuar saw. The only little drawback is that I have to remove the blade out of the jigsaw before storing it. That saves more space and it saves money because I need only one box for two tools.

[@lachlanl2244]

this is very helpful thank you!

[@brimplas1]

Awesome, really helpful pal... 👍👍

[@davidstone3780]

Very helpful. Thank you

Which box to install batteries and chargers? 5:06

[@andyspropertysolutions5631]

Hi A few people have asked me to try different tools in different boxes. I will post videos on my FB page (Andys property solutions ) And answer your questions and hopefully that will help you buy the right box. Thanks Andy

[@MrHurbica]

where can i get these kind of inlays?

[@Trd2020]

Thank You it sucks no one explains what fits

[@robertopics]

Does anybody know if the box 4 (extra large) can fit the rear handle circular saw? I have the large one and it's too small.

[@darkelyaz]

If price comparison Makita is cheaper then Bosch. Maybe because Makita bit smaller then L boxx. But both is practically for used.

[@zack4258]

You should have just flip the drills . You're an expert 🤭

[@imermaliqi9488]

helpful video 👍

[@nomsolo9935]

Dig the intro/outro music. Can you share the name of the song?

[@albertojunco5026]

We can not hear the speaker…

[@lugitabaht6730]

I love videos where you cant hear a damn thing

[@andyspropertysolutions5631]

Good to know. Thanks for your feed back

[@Handymencz]

Super

[@janbarrettnielsen2559]

The foam inserts are neat, but you can buy the foam very cheap and cut it out yourself. A Skill saw doesn't exist, the nomenclature comes from the company Skil who made handheld circular saws popular many years ago. And your multitool is called a multicutter - a multitool is for instance Gerbers and Leatherman's small hand tools with multiple functions. The palm router comes standard in the largest Makpac/(number 4 I think) to be able to fit all the accessories, - trying to fit everything in the number 2 (which sounds nasty) is pretty difficult I think. More accurately impossible. The sound is pretty ..... in your video. But nice tools never the less.

[@kojsiusoaliu6772]

It's locking mecanism is much better in the tanos one or hitsystem hikoki..

[@manny_f]

The Makpac box you get when you buy a tool is utter crap. There is a cheap plastic tray at the bottom that basically does not prevent the tool and other bits from moving around.

[@MatejVelican]

In comparison to Bosch, Dewalt, Milwaukee, even Stanley... Makpac boxes are so weird...

[@dogbreath6974]

Why is the audio so low, can't hear what your saying.

[@albertojunco5026]

Can’t hear the person speaking…

[@ReN-bg4xp]

no sound or low sound

[@williamhutchison9848]

That foam looks annoying as always moving around and stucking

[@siddharthchakravarty2099]

I really recommend to just repeat whatever you said in the video and record an audio on your phone mic. And add that audio track to this video and reupload. I put my laptop volume and YT player volume on full and I can just barely hear what you are saying. Like just someone makes some noise inn the room I am sitting and I have to repeat the video section to understand what you said. this is when I am listening this in earphones. As the system volume is full blast, just one notification sound from some app might damage hearing. Your informative video is ruined by awful audio.

[@andyspropertysolutions5631]

Hi. Thanks for your review. I will be making a new video soon with better audio Thanks

[@andyk9685]

Sorry but it's so quiet you should re-record it

[@izico1]

It is not easy to close and open these boxes

[@andreyp1893]

Lmao guys talking about saving space, that’s a huge waste, one whole box for 1 tool. The boxes they come in when u buy the tool are smaller. All those tools fit in 2 makita bags

[@1mom69]

I would've bought into Makpac but they don't have a case that'll fit a full-sized recipro saw....

[@andyspropertysolutions5631]

Voi-Shan Industries that’s a shame. Hope you found the right box

[@1mom69]

@@andyspropertysolutions5631 I really wanted to buy into makpac. I suppose I could just carry a 24 inch duffle in the trunk for the bigger demolition tools that aren't going to be used as often & splurge for a compact SDS & Recip for the Makpac..... Time to spend more money? Ahaha, great video nonetheless! Haven't seen any newer videos on makpac, I love to hear more nuanced reviews that take their time!
