Didn't see much about them, obviously not as popular as Milwaukee nor as big of a selection, but there are a few sizes plus a cooler. All my tools are red but my Talon is orange so it looks better šŸ˜. Gotta draw up a cad file and fire up the plasma table for a mounting base.

Thoughts/suggestions?

Youā€™re gonna need a bigger box. šŸ˜›

I know you want it to be orange but hereā€™s @TerryH ā€˜s video on the Tractor Supply box many of us are using. Mine is stuffed full btw. TSC has figured out ā€˜weā€™ want their storage box so the price has risen dramatically + covid supply issues. Maybe itā€™s no longer the great deal it once was. šŸ˜¢ Terry posted several of his Talon How To videos in the New Talon Owners - First Things to Know and Check thread, linked in my sig for the curious. (And a stickie in the General Talon 1000 Discusion forum)

Yea I read up on that, I do like how these are stackable and have a cooler. Plus I have a plasma table and tig welder that I've been dying to put to usešŸ˜…

They have a bigger one but they didn't have any at the storešŸ™„.

Width is the same so I was thinking I could integrate something on the sides.
Storage is a premium on my 2 seat Talon, it will be more so with extra people (duh :rolleyes:). Anxiously waiting for some CAD cut pieces and TIG weldinā€™. šŸ˜

My Talon is Orange but Iike my red MPOā€™s theyā€™re more versatile for me because I also use them in my service truck for work. I can also switch them to my P1K5 when I need to. The type of boxes have changed 20 times already also lol.
Did the tote/one large box thing for a long time and got tired of stuff being all over inside after riding on trail all day.

Yea packouts are sweet. Building my house gave me an excuse to basically buy whatever tools I "needed". I've built the whole house with M18 tools, the framing nailer and "worm drive" saw have put in some serious work!

Ridgid boxes used to be what everyone ran before the packouts. I like the Ridgid boxes better and are cheaper but the convenience of the packouts attachment system canā€™t be beat.
I ran them on my P500 and Talon but recently switched to the packouts on my talon.
