So got my systainer IV with the idea of needing a place to keep my sanding abrasives and things organized. Since Woodcraft was having their 10% off sale last week, I also ordered a set of 2 systainer minis as well. So here is everything put together. I didn't really plan anything, just a quick sketch and some measuring but I think it came out pretty good. Definitely usable.

First project that I used the MFT/ and TS-55 REQ on. Man what a great setup that is turning out to be! Cutting all the 1/4" parts was a breeze and no chipout on them at all. Really liking that setup a lot.

On the bottom tray on the left there are three compartments. The first has my 150mm grits 180 - 320, the middle has the rectangle sanding block with the 80x133 abrasives 120 - 400, the last section has 150mm grits 80 - 150. The bottom tray section on the right are boxed spare paper of various grits and sizes.

One of minis has my stickfix pocket sanding block with the pocket stickfix abrasives and some dusting brushes. Probably going to drops some tack cloths in there as well.

The other mini has my snappy drill bits, twistloc kit and some odds and ends (razor cutter, pens and pencils, markers, etc) there's a little bit of room on top of the minis that I put a notepad and my rail connectors in. Seems to work and keeps everything organized.

Fun way to spend a Sat morning :)

Nice set up I like the mini kits inside the larger one concept.  That way you can take just part of it as a sub-kit.
