The tittle sums it up. All you need is deeper boxes for the inside, or a divider for multiple levels of storage. That's all I am askin' for!  Edit: I just want a Sys-box, one with all the colored boxes, available in a systainer 2, 3, or maybe even a 4. All you would need is deeper boxes or a combination with a flat divider to make different levels of storage. The sys box is awesome for screws, pin nails, trim nails, Kreg jig, grk rss screws, or what ever. I can't screw up my screws, no matter what I do to that box!! |

I can't for the life of me figure out what you're asking for here. Sortainer drawers?

What kind of question is that?  It is obviously incomplete. I will check back later and see if you have asked a real question. |

The Sys 1 Box is the box with all the small coloured boxes for screws etc.
Now I had to look twice at Darcy's post too, but I figured it out. He wants the same type of boxes for a No 2 or No 3 systainer.
While we're at it, I want a sys 4 or sys 5 sortainer instead of the sys 3, which I think is too small.

Ta da! Sys 4 size, at least. Sys 5 might be too big and flimsy... http://www.mysystainer.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=561%2D006I've got one of these en route to me ... Kind of a premium price for that extra drawer, over the Sort4, but it's going to live on my CT, with clamps, cleaning kit stuff, toolie, vac bags, etc. I think the small drawers are useless for my needs, so I'm replacing the smalls with another medium size. Result: 2x large, 2x medium. Now... should I splurge and buy green latches, just 'cuz I'm silly like that and don't want to upset the feng shui of my CT/Sys stack?? Umm... probably. |

And about the 5 being too flimsy ...... well, you can reinforce the walls with aluminium if needed. The sortainers have aluminium in them too. The problem with the sys 3 sorts is that I think there's too much space wasted. |

I'm going to back this boy up on this call.  First one to bring me a Sys2 and 3 will get a handshake and a big fat PO. Trouble I have is just the lack of capacity, sure these guys work great for little stuff but what if I want to carry around my conduit straps, I can only get about 6-7 2.5" straps in there which makes them useless.  I have 4 of them now and I love them because: Stuff does not migrate from bin to bin They are stiff and can stand my fat arse on them VERY efficient storage, unlike sortainers Removable bins car be taken up on ladders and dumped out into different vessels, or used as scoops to refill with goods from a bulk container I need bigger ones!.....Please  |

Deeper bins in a Systainer 2 or 3 makes sense for some applications. But for those needing larger bins now, don't overlook the possibility of buying the larger blue or green bins that are available to fit Systainer 1 depth.
Or those even more resourceful, buy a Systainer 2 or 3, two sets of bins designed for a Systainer 1, cut the bottoms off one set and weld them together with a thermoplastic welder. I have an ancient Seeley unit for that purpose which I have used to weld PVC to make vacuum tanks for milking machines and PP battery cases.
Or buy a plain Systainer 2 or 3 and make your own dividers of plywood as some have done to fit LS 130 contoured sanding pads and various grit abrasives.

I have switched around my coloured boxes a bit and have one full of small bins then the other with the larger bins but the problem still remains that for what I want to do they still don't offer enough storage. They are even a little small for my alarm contacts, but better then a sortainer. For my box connectors, wire straps, conduit fittings they could really do with a bit more capacity. I'm about to order one of these for my patch cords:  I will post a review once I get some time to run it through its paces. ...I just finished cutting the sides off of my Hilti TE-2A's charger so that it will fit in a systainer...oh the things we do for systainers. |

 I switched from a Bosch bulldog to a HILTI TE6C so my rotary hammer would fit in a systainer. I like the bulldog better by the way Craig |

Where I previously worked I used a bulldog and it was a great drill, in fact its better for smaller holes then the TE-6. I currently only have a TE2A cordless which I use 90% of the times and a TE-25. If I ever have to make a really big hole I end up subing it out to a coring company anyways so I'm planning my next buy to be a TE-7, nice and compact but can do light chipping.

The reason i like the Bull dog over the 6C is the more leverage that the longer format of the bulldog gives me while chipping. That and the price <<<<<price shopper

Craig Craig, my grandfather's family was from Scotland and he married a Jewish woman....I'm from a long line of price sensitive individuals.  For me it wouldn't be the price of the drill but the additional systainer you just HAVE to buy along with it.  |
