Tanos van storage

[Dan1210]

hey, if anyones up for a laugh go over to tanos website and try the van racking configurator, i mean who actually buys this, its looks great but really the price is beyond ridiculous!

does anyone know of a storage solution similar to this but for reasonable cost?

 

[AlexThePalex]

That Tanos stuff sure is ridiculously expensive. Four measly shelves cost over 2700 euro!

Sortimo is very well known for van racks, and a lot more reasonably priced. But not cheap either.

 

[Dan1210]

actually just lookin at the sortimo stuff, cant seem to find any pricing as yet...

The pipe is  for a boom arm that attaches to the mft like this one in the shop
I also keep my levels, a 55" and 75" track for the ts 55 up there, on top of the right are a few bessy clamps and a stair jig, behind the mft are the accessories for it.

I have been looking at that Walko bench for a bit a while ago I like it! Just I have the MFT and 4 trestles in my van some times and its just more money innit! I properly get it sometime in the future as it looks really handy and not to awkward to set up and being able to carry it all in one trip is prefect.  I hate benches which require more than one trip!

I like Walkos because you can cut sheet goods with them. Get the Walko 4. Rock on.

these are better than the zarges type as the legs fold inside them and then they clip together, they are 1m wide  and have a nice flat top on them
