Mavrick,

Not sure when they will be available from Festool, but Tanos has them in light gray and anthracite for $230 on their website.  I believe their website is mysystainer.com.  They have some other pretty cool options like a systainer for the Fein Multimaster.

Its interesting that when I went to the Festool USA website, there was a popup asking me to fill out a customer survey for a chance to win a rack systainer.  Would this suggest the introducton to the US will happen soon?

Mysystainer.com is The Japan Woodworker.  I have ordered quite a few Tanos items from them.  Great service.

There is no plan to bring the Rack Systainer on as a catalog item in the U.S.  It is only being offered as a promotional giveaway item.  Even more reason to try to win one    Speaking of winning one, for those of you who do not receive our email newsletter, SysNotes, there is an opportunity to win a Rack Systainer (or the parallel guide set) by sharing your TS plunge saw success story.  For more information, you can view this month's SysNotes online.

I like the concept of a lockable and stackable system, but has anyone gone to the Mysystainers.com website?  Unless I am reading it wrong these units are $US240.00 plus $US54.00 for each drawer!

That is $US402.00, I think I would rather save for more tools.

You are looking at their Strongbox, which is the equivalent of a systainer port.  The rack systainers are $230 each, still not cheap.

 

[festoolman]

That $230.00 does include 4 boxes atleast.

Whoops, my BAD.  I will be more careful next time!  They look very similar, and I could not find the Rack Systainer on the Tanos US Site.

Okay -- WHAT is a Festool Rack Systainer.  There certainly isn't much info on the www.mysystainer.com web site.  Is the outer case like (clips to) a regular systainer, or are the 4 drawer-box thingys like systainers?  Are the individual boxes removable?

(I need better storage, but I can't tell if this is it.)

they come with 4 boxes that are removable.  2 have 15 compartments and 2 have 17 compartments.  I believe that they are not adjustable, the internal compartments.  If you call the Japan woodworker they can help you.  1-800-537-7820  If you look at the Tanos catalog they are not listed...interesting.

The boxes look like they're identical to the Raaco Carry Lite boxes Link
