I just bought my first Sysport this week. While I agree with Frank that the latches get easier after they are used some I also feel that for shop use they don't need to be latched when in the sysport. I can certainly see where Chris may feel different when traveling. I suspect that is the nature of the issue. Chris needs the efficiency of storage but dislikes the removal and replacing of tools as it is sometimes a pain getting everything in place. It is all a trade-off. Bigger systainers make for easier manipulation but take up more room, and would require more Sysports. As far as the cost and effort of making your own? I think I am with Per on this one. They are not cheap but when I compare them to other products that are made in what I would expect to be similar quantities the price is not so bad.
This is not to say that anyone is foolish for making your own if they want to. For me, I sometimes think I spend too much time on buiding shop accessories than building something destined to go out the door. For example, my daughter is going to have a baby in November, which will be here all too soon. Should I spend my time building a Sysport or a cradle? T%hat's a no-brainer.
