Best video I’ve seen on this system so far. Keep it up👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
great video man straight forward to the point!
Probably the best configuration I've seen. Smart way to set it up man
This is what I needed to see. I have the original lower crate with wheels. And was deciding on the 2 drawer to add to it. You've helped my decision! Electrician here in Canada! Cheers buddy!
Glad I could help!
This is an awesome video mate, as an apprentice tradie (who still gets taken the Mickey out of for having single espresso dare instead of double) this helped me refine me setup, I will be throwing my Ryobi out as soon as possible!
Well done Corey! - great explanation video of your great gear. Looks professional! Subscribed!
The packout ( backpack packout.. ) is one of the best packout items you can buy
Totally agree my friend
Those packout drawers are game changers. I was looking at getting into flex modular tool boxes since I found one of their organizers on clearance at my local lowes but they’ve yet to make some drawers and/or tool bags to compete with packouts system. Flex stackpack is sturdy and I love the neutrality behind the gray color but for the same price as packout and with nothing to compete with the packout drawers, Milwaukee seems like a must-have.
Love your setup dude. I’m a hvac service tech from Sydney and currently running the pack out system and man! the draws are so good!
Awesome! Thanks mate
The pros with this system is that you have a larger base toolbox, the cons is that in order to get this extra space over the wheeled tool box the wheels and handles stick out further from the back.
Awesome set-up, Corey. Thanks for making the video.
Love that sleazy Aussie moustache :)
would have to say this is the most efficient packout setup I've seen
Excellent video
And yeah. Drawers on the bottom is a beautiful setup
inspiring! also loved king gizz in the back!
Cheers! Glad people are picking up on the king gizz
My set up is quite similar. I also have a the dolly but i have two 2 deep drawers and a 3 drawer. A deep organizer and a slim on the very top.. cuz i dont have to remove the slim organizer when i need to get into my deep organizer.. and my kleins tool pouch.. bottom drawer consists of my power tools such as the compact dewalt bandsaw, sds, Minnie sledge hammer and compact sawzall. Second drawer are my batteries and impact/ drill. All the other drawers are just tools and bits. I don’t use my drawers for materials or hardware..
Nice setup mate, good editing too I should take you up on some lessons 😂😂
Ive been using the erbauer set (Identical to AEG in australia, Ridgid in the US) for about a year and it was my first rolling stack and it was amazing in the beginning but having to dissasemble to the entire tower to get my saw or nail gun out the bottom since they dont fit in the top was a ball ache. Got a drawer and organisers on order atm and gonna buy another box each payday
Great video
Is that King Gizzard in the back?! Now that deserves tripple extra bonus likes! :DD
Yeah it is haha, Polygondwanaland. I'm glad they made that album free for use otherwise I'd just be another youtuber using generic stock background music
Anyone else finding this guy giving Daniel Ricardo vibes. Legend mate
Very nice.
With the new thing to you✊
MILWAUKEE 🔥PACKOUT🔥
Great setup mate 👍 In the UK it's rare to see a sparky use a tool pouch it's all tool bags especially the velocity range.
Thanks mate, they don't sell velocity in Australia but we have veto which is pretty much the same thing
Should get some PACKOUT amods for hanging the clear ones on the side
Good on you bro…. Nice setup… keep at it
Thanks mate!
Cool video, Melbin.
We have similar setups, instead of the 2 drawer system I have the cabinet. Nice work, I’m a finish carpenter from California.
Thanks! I didn't even realise they made a cabinet, just looked it up and can't get em in Australia unfortunately
I like your drawer idea. What if Milwaukee made a box that was only open in the front and it had built in rails that would allow you to slide in your thin organizers. You would then be able to pull one out at a time to access what you needed then slide it back in instead of having to unstack them to access. Unlike the drawer boxes you could easily customize the organizer drawers for a specific job.
That'd be sick!
Could the bottom drawer fit a circular saw and a sawzall?
Hi! what is that multimeter? it seems nice smal to carry
:)
I would’ve loved Milwaukee packouts, but I went with Ridgid and store my Milwaukee power tools. Maybe one day, but I have $180 into my Ridgid setup and $1200 worth of Milwaukee power tools in them and say another $3-400 in hand tools. I’ll say one thing bout my Rigid packouts. They bounced around in an open pickup truck over 1700 miles for three jobs last summer and stayed dry inside during torrential downpours. I do think the drawer design is more convenient, but the Rigid system is way better than what I had before, which was nothing. I know one thing. I’m just a Carpenter apprentice and when older carpenters see what tools I have and my setup, I get offered jobs and side work all the time. I have around $1700 in all this stuff and bought it with tax refund last year and I like using my own power tools instead of rooting around in my boss’s stuff. He has a tendency to misplace things on his own, so less I’m in his stuff, the better, plus the quality of my work is better with everything I need. For quick jobs, I take a Huskee ;the heavy duty model) backpack and again; I’m just an apprentice, but I’m taken seriously and I’m actually putting out better work than many carpenters with more experience just by having all my own trade level tools.
Sounds like you've got a good setup there, keep up the good work man!
Nice stack mate. 👍
Thanks mate👍
Good going, thanks. Little feedback; hope you like: 3:03 for example, I would not cut back to myself sitting on the box, when most of us wanna see the tools/organisation inside the drawers. Then you repeat this a few times. I feel like in these kind of videos, the presenter should only be visible in the intro and outro. Maybe once more in the middle. Otherwise the voice-over is plenty, while we are basking in the beauty of the organisation :-D. Cheers (The toilet joke is funny!)
One could argue that cutting back to the wide angle is mostly about showing the stack of boxes and their beauty. Well, yeah. Maybe a static picture in the corer of the whole setup would do the job too.
Aaaanywho. Very good video on the whole!
Thanks for the feedback mate. I like the idea of having the wide angle shot in the corner of the video! The reason I keep cutting back to myself is because I didn't record the b-roll footage long enough
Man, "Keep your pouch as light as possible." Here I am trying to keep everything on me at once. I even just added the Milwaukee cable stapler for rough-ins. Trying to fit both that and my impact on my tool belt has been interesting. Starting to get a bit too heavy, but it's hard to dump something when I feel like it wastes time to have to go back to grab something I need when I'm running around a house that I just deal with it.
Yeah I totally get it, have you tried just keeping the essentials in your pouch and everything else in a tool bag/box close by? I'm sure overtime you'll improve your setup, at the end of the day it's all trail and error
@@coreybruhn yeah, was thinking about possibilities after I finished the video. I think maybe the solution is to have a bit more forethought on what I'll need at any given time and only carry those. There are several tools that I need, but don't use all the time. It's just hard when I get in that groove of work to know if I should pick up a tool or swap something out when I pass my stuff until I'm on my ladder and missing my impact so now I need to get off my ladder and go out of my way to grab it.
Definitely recommend a mini mallet for green plugs and an inspection light (sparkies best friend). Great set up though. Would be interesting to know how much this set up weighs.
Cheers mate. Good idea, I'll add em to my ever expanding tool list! I mostly just use my phone's torchlight but I definitely need to invest in a proper one. That's a good video idea, maybe I'll work out it's total weight
i found cliptech pouches are great for hanging off my packout. they have a whole assortment of pouches from general purpose to electrician to framing. you can put a clip on your belt and grab one from the truck and clip it onto your belt. sooooo clever.
Sick, I'll look into getting those clips!
@@coreybruhn yeah the clips come with a self drilly screw so you can install directly to the vertical rails. I'm going to have to make a vid to showcase my load out.
@@ravensnflies8167 yeah do it bro, I subscribed
@@coreybruhn thanks a lot man. i need to get my daughter to vid. never had much luck with setting my phone up to vid solo and i dont have equipment so its just the fone.
@@ravensnflies8167 I use my phone to record as well and just set it up on a tripod I got from Amazon
Hey bro, would be nice to see your van set up.
I really like the way how you organize things
Cheers. I've recently left the company I was working at that gave me my own van to learn solar at another mob. I drive my 2-door coup to the factory and then transfer my packout into one of the work vans where a group of us carpools to the worksite. So yeah I don't have my own work car atm but I'm only using my personal car to drive to and from the factory (and it fits my packout setup after taking it apart)
I wonder what sort of coupe you have, you must be tired of it always taking it apart 😅
@@pavelsidor Kia Cerato koup, the least tradie car out there! But somehow I managed to fit my packout setup in it 😂
IMHO you should put the lighter organizer on top and the heavy organizer on the bottom. That way you can flip the top of the heavy organizer open with be the light one attached.
Damn I just switched the heavier organiser to the bottom and now it seems so obvious that's the better way to do it, thanks for the tip!
@@coreybruhn just be careful. It's a little hard in the hinges. It works great. I've got a small organizer in top of my xl bin. Had the same realization when I discovered I didn't have to remove it every time.
My favourite part is at 0:53
Can you fit a circ saw in the big draw?
Unfortunately not mate
How have you found the strength and reliability of the trolley? I was thinking of waiting until they bring out a Trolley Toolbox with draws instead of the chest, but I’ve heard the trolley is poor quality.
Didn't know they were making a trolley with inbuilt drawers.
I've had the trolley for over 2 years and I haven't had one problem with it, not sure who's telling you it's poor quality
what car you drive.? how do you load everything up on ur vehicles? take them off one by one?
atm just a 2-door coup. Not the most tradie car out there but it fits the packout after taking them off one by one. I recently left my company and work van for another sparky mob to learn solar. Everyone meets at the factory in the morning and carpools to site in one of the vans
Hi form Thailand
For smaller jobs I bring the backpack.
What do think of the Klein mod box?
Looks pretty good, I'm already invested with Milwaukee though
Don’t know if it’s been mentioned previously, but do you work out of a van or ute? I’d love a setup like this but work out of a ute and don’t really want packout unlockable in my tray
I have a work van but am planning on getting a work/family ute some time in the future. Would you invest in a canopy or aluminium toolbox for your tray?
I think it entirely depends on the kinda work you do and the materials/tools you need to be honest. I have a ute with boxes at the moment but I’d like to transfer to a canopy when I can. But I would probably have difficulty fitting a trolley like setup similar to yours. Hence my question.
@@tomwhitehead3352 The trolley's dimension's are (Lx W x H): 508 x 304 x 1219mm. But yeah I agree depends on the type of work you do and whether you think the trolley setup would suit
By the way, love the channel mate. You speak very clearly and concisely whilst keeping your videos organised and well thought out.
Love seeing all the tools and setups within the trade! Maybe you could do a vehicle load out next?
@@tomwhitehead3352 Cheers! Yeah planning on making that video, my van's a real mess atm without shelves so once I get that sorted then definitely
Do you have to dismantle to get into your ute?
Yeah mate, atm I've got the Renault Kangoo as my work van
Reminds me of that one RUclips meme video of how much was everything.
How do you find the trolley?
Great mate!
Most organised electrician I have seen ahaha 🤣
haha it's not common is it
I know many people who are Packed Out and don't know what they're doing.
Buy the cart with wheels😊 lmao 😂😂😂
Why do those batteries look different?
Batteries in Australia have a different skin compared to the US
@@coreybruhn ok thanks ive seen those batteries in a million vids but didnt know if they were aftermarket or not?
I got them apart of a kit from Total Tools (popular tool supplier in Australia)
I really think the pricing of any packing system out there is just to much that applies especially for packout! I think im going tto buy it regardless because the competition is just worse!
Yeah it all adds up, but here in Australia we can claim tools on tax so it's not too bad
Man, that's all got to be heavy.
Moving the trolley around isn't heavy at all, only when I'm lifting each box out of/into the van but even then it's really not that bad
Should have bought Makita
Call me crazy but you’re missing marrettes.
Don't really use twist-on connectors that often
this is exact;y how i would setup the packout. if only you were a p;lumber
Bro you need some foam
Yeah probably the next thing I add to this setup!
Nerd
Worst set up I’ve seen
Just leave him with the setup he likes
there's always some bitter dickhead ready to tear others down eh
Gday!
