Good Container to Haul R/C Stuff In?
#1
I already have a Plano tackle box that I keep my tools and other stuff in, but I am looking for something a little bigger to carry around spare parts, tires, radio, oil, etc. .

I don not want to spend $100-150 on a Hauler bag. Does anyone have any suggestions on what to buy/where to buy it? I already looked at Menards, Home Depot, and Sears.

The wingtote bag is $50 http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti...XJXE7&P=ML


If it doesn't have enough room for all your stuff, I don't know what will.

I can get you a tm 1/8 hauler bag for 130 brand new. It will hold everything. Got 4 slide out draws, and a big draw for a buggy, a pouch for a setup board, clip on for attaching a starter box with there starter box bags, tools, heck it holds everything.

i used to have a black and decker Firestorm box. It was a 2 piece tool box. A normal tool box on top and a larger chest tool box on the bottom, had a collapseable handle and wheels. I got it at Lowes it was about $60 I think.

Only problem is that it is so big, I don't have anywhere to put that because it won't fit in my room.

I think I am going to look around again tomorrow. I was looking for something with wheels.

go to lowes, its orange and grey in color... It hauled all my stuff pretty much for a buggy and my truggy. The top box also has a small removable parts tray that I would bring to pit lane that carried glow plugs and othe misc items....

UE maxx go to sports authority and get a hockey bag. They are huge with plenty of room for everything and a lot of them have wheels. The only thing you have to do is put a piece of wood in the bottom to make it strong.

When we went to Stl. I fit my Ofna 9.5, Ofna 1/8th starter box, Losi xxx-nt, Dynamite 1/10th starterbox, 2 radios, and asorted tools.

The thing with bags its hard to keep things organized IMHO. If you are looking just for easy toting then a bag will work. But if you want a tote and organization get a wheeled tool box or a hauler bag.

I want like little compartments to keep my stuff organized like said above.

So does anyone know where there is a Lowes around here? I know they are in the process of buidling one in Orland Park, but that does me no good. I tried looking in the yellow pages and 411.com

Go to Costco.

They have a wide selection of cardboard boxes right by the registers. Pineapple boxes are strong and have carry handles in the sides. One or two carries tons of stuff.

Or the corrugated plastic mail totes are good, too. But you have to "borrow" those.

I seen that in the sales paper. I went to check it out and I was looking to get something a little bigger and I want something with little compartments on the top like the plano I have now.
