Those beltless ones look like they could be real hot during the summer. I will admit they are better than years of a tool belt.

True they can get warm.....thats what is so cool about there options......I have a couple of interchangeable set ups. It is easy with there stuff to mix and match to suit your needs.

I treat them just like the rest of my tools....for example, channelocks.......sometimes you need 430's and sometimes you need the Big AZZ (trademark) 480's.

I like the tool vest I may get one, I checked and there is a dealer only 5 miles from home.

I have one and I attach these accessories when I need them.

I have a similar pouch though it's not made by Klein. It's very handy for holding the basic and most frequently used tools.

You can see it in the bottom right hand corner of my tool mess....err...I mean collection. ;)

This is a cool one I found and almost got it......It looks good both visually and structurally. It's made in Canada by a company called Viking Leather......it's pretty good but I prefer American Made as much as I can.:smile: As far as the foreign products go this one is top knotch.

I have a pouch similar to the one in the picture. It doesn't look that good now but it gave really good service for many years. It's kind of beat up these days but I don't use a pouch much anymore.

Peter, It appears the "tool box" pictured has seen better days? :grin:

Once upon a time, I had one of the Klien leather pouches. It treated me well for the first week of my apprenticeship. Then came the linemen's bag to hold the overflow...

For the last 6 or 7 years I've been using CLC's stuff.

Crawling around and doing maintenance type work, I can't stand carrying a pouch. I currently us a medium sized CLC product. I call it a man-purse. =) I lets me carry most of what I need and it's size limits me to 30lbs of junk. My back appreciates that.

My 2?

:grin:.....

One of my good buddies in the field bought me a real cool machinist bag (for my wrenches and allens and misc. switchgear stuff)

We call it the MURSE (man-purse):grin:

These second as a camper shell.............for a 40' boat!!!:grin:

i see only one problem with these..... walking..... a possible second problem...
... standing..... you're gonna carry this much stuff.... get something with
wheels.....

however, the occidental leather products are excellent... i got all excited
when i saw the masons bags..... but they aren't big enough....:mad:

i've seen some really long masons canvas bags, but cannot find them
anywhere.... the box my hilti 903 demo hammer came in died, and i'd like
to find a big enough bag to hold it, and the bits.... anybody seen anything
like that? i've found canvas masons bags 24" long... i need one 30" long....

This is Nylon.......but there tough as nails, and would most likely work for your Hilti 903
