Duluth tool bags--20% off

[reggaepass at aol.com]

...and if someone DOES decide to run with Wayne's idea of a 
technician's case based on carry-on luggage, the platform to use would 
be the one made by Briggs and Riley.  Although expensive, they are very 
well-made and carry a lifetime guarantee (they actually will fix or 
replace, no matter why the damage).  Zippers and wheels are the items 
most likely to fail on carry-on suitcases, so after our 16 year old 
went through several inferior cases, we finally solved the problem once 
and for all with the Briggs and Riley.

FWIW,

Alan Eder

Use to use  small zipper suitcase with wheels...you know,
the kind you take on airplanes...really liked it till the zipper 
broke. 
Two problems though, no dividers inside so I constructed a few out of 
thin
plywood and liquids where oriented horizontally (guess you can't have
everything)...I could carry (wheel) a lot in that bag and almost never 
had to go
back to my truck and it wasn't heavy because I never carried it.
 
When the wheels broke...thought I'd try a "real" tuners bag,
so I put out what seemed a fortune and bought a Genck...did not like 
it...had to
rummage around for all my screwdriver, etc. inserts.
 
New bag time...more money...bought the Duluth...That roll out piece 
should have been put in vertically. If they get that fixed and put 
wheels on it, it would be the best
buy in town IMHO.
 
Can't "carry" as much as my initial rolling unit and maybe the
bigger bag would be better but then again it would be heavier.  Really
liked the zipper suitcase with wheels. If someone with the expertise 
and
connections could design one of those roll arounds for a tuner I'd buy
it.
 
 
Appreciate the great discussions on this list...has really
helped me streamline my business.
