X-wing toolbox/carry case

By 12ozkrue, in X-Wing

So i've spent like an hour looking and can't find what it was....i was recommended a toolbox to carry my x-wing in and the thing does not have any labels on it and I have no idea where i had bought it since it was like 5 years ago..... i figured if i posted here someone would maybe recognize it and steer me in the right direction ....attached is a pic.... it opens on top with nice storage, 4 full size plastic trays (tackle box trays).

Any names on the trays? It could be a Plano, but maybe also Harbor Freight? I don't recognize it.

nope, inside and out no labels no plastic etching, only thing on it was the basic plastic code that all plastics have

Wait, look up STANLEY.

tried, i even ordered one form home depot but it was a half size one, i had to take it back :(

i honestly dont even remember if i was directed to a foreign ebay seller or amazon it's been so long

Man.....my Google-fu has failed me. I can't find anything. I've been there before and hope you find it.

Nope.. Not recognizing that one. Though in my local store, i see lots of folks using a fishing tackle box,

Ignore this post, look at the next.

Unfortunately I can't say I recognize that either. Weird thing is the outside looks like a Stanley container but the trays inside remind me of Plano.

Personally I use Keter organizer boxes. They have two sections which makes for safe storage and transporting easy. I currently have 6 of them: 1 for scum and all my scum and generic upgrades, 1 for both prequel factions, 1 for both sequel factions, 1 for Rebel and 1 for Imperial. The last one I use to haul my list of the week and game materials to my game store.

That looks WHOLE lot like a Harbor Freight item. https://www.harborfreight.com/toolbox-organizer-with-4-drawers-68238.html

I have one, and it works great. The top compartment holds maneuver templates, range rulers, debris and other larger, misshapen items. The top tray I use for tokens and dice, and it works perfectly. The other trays I use for small base ship/pilot tokens, one faction per tray. I keep my ships on a shelf for all the world to see.

EDIT: I just looked, and the Harbor Freight box is about $10USD cheaper than the Amazon item. Other than that, they look almost identical. Also, Harbor Freight is in-store only for that item, so that might matter for you.

That looks nice.

The upper one is the one I’m using. Although I’m officially at capacity with it.

Yea, if i had a chance to re-do how i store things, i might have gone with the bottom one (using the large containers vice medium ones), or better yet, something like
