Field Boxes out of Tool Boxes
 

I was wanting to make a field box out of the Wal-mart Tool Stanley Tool Box on wheels and was needing any suggestion on how to make it work. Anyone that has completed a project like this, your advise and suggestions would be appreciated. I have tried to attach a piture bleow?.?

JustDreamin - just throwing this out there. Your rolling toolbox looks good when converted. Couple of pics in these threads.

One of my mates use one of these as a flight box for a while, worked well.

12V at the bottom give it stability.

I made one out of a toolbox as well. I love it. I hated having to carry a heavy box to the flightline. Now I just roll it out there.

kid in that pictures a bit young isnt he? :P

i use an old fishing tackle box, but its not very big and i cant fit a 12v battery, charger or starter in there as i also use it for my trucks, its packed with old servos, suspension arms, shocks, bumpers, diffs, gearbox parts e.t.c
