The tools in my truck were talking the other day. The Dewalts, PC's, Boschs, Makitas were not happy. They also were in the minority. Their complaint: They felt unused and unappreciated since the Festools moved in. I guess the truth hurts.

I am considering doing something similar. I am also building a storage box for my truck with a hinged lid that will have storage inside the lid to store my shorter rails and levels. Show us some more pics later! Peter

Its being made of lightweight ply and the main section will be around 2ft wide so it should transport well although I anticipate it staying in the shop most of the time/ |
