Einsatzpappschachtel = Little cardboard boxes

 

[Healeyjet]

So it is a Sys-storage box full of empty containers? 

After spending the last week trying to order RAACO inserts for my Rack-Tainer, appropriately sized empty containers isn't a bad option.

[Slartibartfass]

Yes the little cardboard boxes (23) fit into the systainer and together with the systainer itself (no 24) work as a Christmas calendar....

 

[AlexThePalex]

Yep, just empty boxes. You can fill them yourself.

 

[Healeyjet]

Ahhh, and Advent-tainer? 
All clear now.

[wow]

It could have been a lot cooler if they would have put something in each of the cardboard boxes and made it an actual advent calendar/box. It could have been nothing more than a driver bit or a blade, which would only cost a few cents each.

No are what I'd do with the cardboard boxes. I can think of LOTS of stuff to put in them, but I'd be concerned about durability?

That's 10 euros cheaper than the regular SYS-SB that comes with 2x 60x60, 2x 60xx120 and 1x 180x120 (plastic) boxes.

If it's sturdy cardboard then it would make a nice solution for keeping your assortment screws, bolds etc. Maybe dealers will get the same idea and offer this X-Mas box filled with Spax (or whatever is popular at your place) screws. I know I would be tempted

That's a GREAT idea! Any dealers up to it? Tom Bellemare is the master of sandpaper assortments - wonder if he'd consider adding screw assortments to his arsenal ?

Wayne, great idea but I cannot imagine the weight of that Systainer fully laden with screws and trying to ship it.

Highland Hardware has a Sys1 loaded with 1300 spax screws. They don't show a weight, but it ships for less than $13 so it can't be all THAT heavy?

The Highland Hardware one has 100 pieces each of 13 different screws, while this has space for 23 ... so adjust the weight accordingly.

Healeyjet,

Any luck finding finding inserts for your Rack-Tainer?

John, after a few days going back and forth with a weekend in the middle it looks like I am getting close.  A supplier in the UK has agreed to ship to Canada.  The problem I am having is that I think he waits until the end of his workday to contact me and then with the time change it takes another day for me to answer.  Tomorrow I will just call there.  Is there a source in the States that you know of?

I have a sys 3 filled to the brim with my small screws, weighs 11 kg /23 pounds. The SYS - Storagebox can hold a lot less.

Thanks for posting that info Alex. That's right in line with what I was thinking at maybe 25 pounds of so.
