Those are the exact 2 veto's I have, and set up in a similar way. The xxlf is a beast, when loaded at times I have to sort tools and odds and ends out of it so I can lift it again. You don't need free weights if you own an xxlf. And once you try a veto you won't buy another brand unless they radically up their game.

I fancy one of those tech ones, looks a handy piece of kit! ive got a british gas brief case type one at the moment, would have to try and flog that first efore I could afford to fork out £150 for one tho!!

What are the new fat max ones like? I've seen em for £30 and am tempted

I use this type by Stanley for my everyday hand tools, I bought it about 8 years ago for about £5.



I have a Stanley Fatmax XL that I keep in the van for heavier tools and tools not used everyday.

I have that same tray for my everyday stuff. I'm looking at upgrading to a bag

I have adapted my tray with cut down inhibitor and water bottles to carry smaller tools and bits.
I tried using the Fatmax for a while for everyday use but I found it too heavy, I was also carting around stuff I only used now and again.

If the plastic Stanley tray broke tomorrow I would definitely buy another one, i do loads of small jobs in occupied propertys and it's easy to carry around.

It really depends on what you are using it for I mostly do servicing, so I use a ck magma technicians case

I also have a ck magma tool tote that I keep all my pipework tools in

Both bags are pretty sturdy

Them stanley trays last me about 3 months.
They do a heavier duty one with a metal handle. Much more durable.
That said im waiting on the veto to come back in stock. Gonna rush me 160 notes

Whilst I was in Swindon Friday I purchased the penultimate one they had..... Sorry about that.

any good? any pics of it full?

Dont worry gasmanrob it wasn't your fault. Im waiting for a man size version. Not the hairdressers handbag that you have purchased.

I just got a Veto Pro Pack XXL F and im seriously impressed. Upgraded from a Stanley Fatmax as it was getting frustrating with trying to find things, i frequently had to empty half the bag just to find one tool.

The price does seem a little steep at £180 but i felt like treating myself

I got the tech lc and have used it daily for the 11 months and it still looks brand new....... The Blue CK cases i used to use would be in tatters by now
