Top 5 Must Have Items for the Milwaukee Tools Packout System. ( Mods and Hacks)

At first I was like "this is gonna be like every other milwaukee fan video". Nope its more of a look at all this innovative people and the products they make to make the packout fit for everyone. TAKE MY MONEY. Ordering some of those plates now.

[@tomj528]

The funny thing is that 60 years ago most guys would build an entire house with little more than a handsaw, hammer, level, ruler/tape measure, a yankee screwdriver, Crescent wrench and a nailset. I've been using a lot of hand tools lately and I've found that they're actually faster and easier for most tasks rather than dragging all of the power tools out. The exception being drilling and driving more than a few screws. It's easy to see that a few hand tools and a cordless drill/driver set up will handle almost everything and fit into a single, smaller toolbox. I have such a box under the backseat of my truck and it's amazing what I can do with just the tools within.

[@tomj528]

@J Whitley Compare the time and effort it takes most contractors to set up, charge batteries, trips back to the truck/trailer, chasing down a tool on the job site, knocking everything back down and don't forget the weight of it all. I'm not sure how much planing you're doing but for a few edges a well tuned hand plane does the job in less time than having to go grab and set up even a cordless one and then there's the expense for a tool that may be used very little. I don't know about you but the only planing I've ever had to do is to clean up a few cut edges, ease a corner or two and plane down a door. All of which is very easy to do with a hand plane and one could argue that it does a better, more precise job. Interesting that you mention the Sawzall as I just had to cut roughly 30 long 2"x6" in half to get them out and down to the dump. I stacked them and grabbed my Sawzall thinking it would make quick work of the job with the new blade I installed and found that it wasn't a good choice as the blade was binding and it was much more effort than the small toolbox handsaw I had been using to cut them. I couldn't use a circular saw without removing a ton of nails. So it was back to the handsaw which sawed through them in no time, leaving me wishing I hadn't wasted the time and effort of retrieving, setting up and putting away the Sawzall. My point is that builders used to be able to do the same job with much less equipment that fit into a small tool box/tote that held everything they needed compared to the huge array of modular storage rigs, trucks and trailers of today and were independent of having power on the job site as well...something that anyone that's worked a summer or two in the North woods in the 1980's would appreciate. I think that most today would be surprised at how well and easily hand tools work to do many of the jobs they tackle on a daily basis. As I originally said, if you've got to drill/drive a lot of screws I'm grabbing a power tool the same as if I have to make multiple cuts on nail free lumber, etc., but I just marvel at the difference in the number of power tools/tools "needed" in a relatively short span of time.

[@jimbarron8688]

Can't argue your point however the cordless tools available today make life a lot easier. There are a lot of tools that seem silly to many but are vital to others. When you need it, you need it, especially once you know it's out there. That being said tool whores do walk among us.

Yeah, they do help a ton

[@bigbossmgmt9143]

So far I’m in love with the cup holder and the crate lid. Used to have the Ridgid boxes but the customization options for the packout are endless

[@JakeOfALL]

I use the cupholder on my Packout cooler !!! Glad you like them!

[@andybracken9261]

You should come out with a design with the feet to mount the chargers to a lid or inside the boxes so you can set your charger on top, lock it down and not worry about it falling off when bumped and just a more stable mount when charger the bigger High Demand series batteries! Great video and can’t wait to get some mounts for my crates to help organize both my shop and my boxes!

[@CJGame-N-Play]

Whoever designs a lockout clip to carry the chainsaw is a God.

If you're hanging crates on the wall, I found 2 cleats isn't enough to support any real weight. I broke 2 cleats. I recommend adding the center block style cleat for sidewall mounting

[@lennythelizard3856]

I’ve been hesitant about buying the packout cases. Right now I just use plastic totes to move tools around. After seeing the customization I might buy in to this system. Great video!

That Kaizen foam may well have persuaded me to buy some of this Packout. I can now box up my tools in an organised fashion, instead of just throwing them into a big box of mess.

[@JakeOfALL]

Welcome to the dark side

[@checkitworkshop]

Hey can I just say, you are my new favorite facetube person! Your brain moves as fast as mine. I hope I can make youtube videos that are as informative as I just watched with no BS. Just bought my first (2) stacks of Packout and am super stoked! I was using bags / tool bags or whatever people call them to transport mixed / moshed, whatever I could jam into them.... (super unorganized) to the job site. I love organization & customization! JACKPOT! You rock! Keep doing what you are doing. I haven't even finished the video (wanted to comment) & will go buy (hopefully you have a website!) some of your customized set-ups for the system.

[@JakeOfALL]

Thanks so so much

[@masonjr3]

I removed the center handle & pockets from a 15" tote & mounted my Oxy/Acetylene torches inside the tote & bolted the plastic torch case to the bag. Now, my torch set is a pack out tote with everything I need to weld refrigerant lines on board.

[@JakeOfALL]

nice ! I love that idea

Thanks for all the information. I just started my own packout set up and really like it so far. Checking out what all is available. I really like those foam inserts. I'll check the site out. One question, the lid you have for the crates, does Milwaukee make those as well or are they 3D printed? Or are they 3rd party?

Does anyone have an experience flying (domestically USA) with the Packout cases? Would you trust them to hold up like a Pelican Case?

Went LAX-MIAMI AND BACK WITH 4 pack out cases no issues Except weight restrictions per each. However I’m military and was able to get an exemption on American. I was also worried initial too but they came thru like new. Important to note mine were priority bags not sure if that made handling any different

SORTIMO is the greatest option in the world to organize your tools. The greatest organization, mobility, customization, etc. I'm actually moving to Packout inside a pick up to Sortimo inside a Van.

[@JakeOfALL]

So I can agree to a point. I have used both systems. The Sorttimo system is nice and the factory options are great, but the durability is just not there compared to Milwaukee. Now if you are just using them for parts then Go Sortimo.

[@Joshua-yn1zx]

Oh no I missed the birth of my son watching this video. Tool Candy videos got me again!!

If you're 3D printing those attachments for the packouts, you should CNC the Kaizen inserts for the Milwaukee tools and even some generic ones for socket sets! Socket and wrench organizers are something I'd buy for my work truck!!!

With those plates, feet and cleats, can convert ANY container into a Packout compatible. So if you invested in a different System you can integrate it into a Packout instead of throwing it out. Keep your power tools in their original Blow molded cases.

For the level holder I can't see myself loading and unloading with that level in the way. You guys should design one that can go inside the crate with some PVC pipe to hold it erect.

[@SniperSpade]

A nice addition would be some sort of B-Tank holder that hooks onto that front rail system for plumbers

[@tonyyates2012]

I'd love to see a pack out drawer system, as nice as packout looks the lids are unnecessary, a good strong drawer system gives you far quicker access with minimal lifting saving your back, it also allows better utilisation of the foam inserts saving wear and tear on tools when they get jostled during transport between jobs.

Need to make an SDS hammer drill pack out mount adapter so the ads drill stands vertical in the 37 gallon tote. So the 5/8 shank on drill side then a 1/4 impact then 1/2" quick release hole hawg all mount side by side by the chuck and staylocked on and standing. Basically the opposite of the tool mount from the battery slots if made it's allow other brand tools besides Milwaukee to be organized inside of packout. Cause obviously DeWalt Makita etc can't compete with Milwaukee packout.

[@JakeOfALL]

Ohh that’s cool idea

[@rodpotts2666]

So glad I found this channel.

[@JakeOfALL]

Yeah buddy

[@mastermetalshredder]

@jakeofall I think it's really cool what you're doing, we need more tool storage solutions. Here is what has stopped me from buying packout: if I put my 18v circ saw, sawzall, and impact combo inside they will all be rattling around and banging into each other inside the box. This basically makes the boxes no better than a duffel bag if they're doing that and the tools aren't safe. So, I'd like to see you offer methods of safe storage for the interior of the packout system. For example, a layered system for the rolling box where the circ saw sits flat on the shoe in the bottom and there is a layered system built around and on top it for a sawzall and impact combo kit. I am going to make one out of plywood for myself in the meantime if I find some time to start a project

[@JakeOfALL]

Thanks man, have you looked at the Kaizen Foam Inserts ???

[@mastermetalshredder]

JakeOfALL yeah, it’s okay but doesn’t seem suited to separate a bunch of big tools inside one packout box especially when you need layers to separate them. I also feel like it’s expensive and kind of sloppy for what you pay. Keep up the good work though Jake, thanks!

On the thinner box that comes with the 3 stack kit (48-22-8424)it would be nice on the inner side organizers to have some of the shockwave tabs for bit organization in those. I use it for my m18 drill and impact set with bits in those side organizers but they are just thrown in there as of now. Just an idea I had seeing this.
