I use something similar to take tools to job sites.  They are by Stanley 
and have two drop ins.  I plan to get another and place both in the back of 
the trailer for the small tools.

As for taking things to job sites, I recently bought a huge cross box.  The 
owner bought a small pickup and sold me his old cross box.  I can carry 6 
milk crates in the box but usually only have 4 leaving an empty space for 
extension cords and air hoses.

That brings to mind a very handy tool.  I have a portable air compressor to 
run air brad and finish   It is so handy that I rarely run the big 
compressor any more.nailers.
