soft sided tool kit
 
Anyone know who sells a soft side mechanics tool kit with tools that would be good for a boat?

Try harbor Freight. They have a bunch of toolbags, and kits. Not snapon quality, but they work great to keep on the boat.

I use a soft tackle bag with the nice compartmentalized clear tackle boxes inside. It works out real well. Make each compartment the size you need to hold sockets, wrenches etc.

U have a lipship cig, you dont need any tools, its bullet proof

I have a small blue soft sided one i got a west marine, tools arent the best quality (you wownt rebuild an engine with them), but it has a good variaty of what you may need in a pinch

Sears carries soft side tool bags. Of course you'll have to buy the tools.

Please support the OSO bags. They are made by Chicago Case company AKA Magnum Mark. Same company that makes the best prop boxes this side of China. OSO has both soft sided tool bags and the same bag without the tool inserts so that you can put a laptop inside. The embroidery of the OSO logo is 1st class. Just call the OSO office and they will ship one out to you asap.

On a side note if there are any boat clubs out there that would like these bags with your club logo on them comtact me and we will help you out. First order must be 24 bags to cover the cost of the embroidery tape

I bought a kit from Target several years ago, and it has held up surprisingly well. It is a hard sided flip open case though. I also keep a small Craftsman socket kit on board big enough to remove prop nuts. I think its about 10 pieces.

Sears
Lowes
Home Depot
Harbor Freight

...all carry a lot of bags and tools options.

bgchuby01 10-11-2007 10:49 AM

All these bags look and work good EXCEPT I think you would want to have your boat tool bag display the new OSO logo which is sewn into the bag.

For over 30 years I have used EMT bags and they work great
and when I travel they go right with me, Its harder with all
the new rules and they can get very heavy.
I did a lot of work for the Navy any hauled them every place.
They are heavy canvas with a lot of pockets, I still use the
first on I bought, Its a little dirty but no rips or holes.
The people with the Hi-Price boats really like to see tool bags
that wont scratch the Gel-Coat.

I thought Omerto was buying it for you for Xmas:p

I carry a soft tool case from Sears in the boat. Folds in half and zips closed. About the size of a bible. (Or so I'm told. ;) ) Downside is the sockets always come out of the elastic straps that hold them in their locations. Unzip it, open it, they all fall out. :) The OSO bag looks great, but where do the sockets go?

BadDog 10-12-2007 05:03 AM

I have always used laptop cases. Lots of pockets, just buy tools that come in blow molded cases.

Those are nice, OSO should give them to the Platinum Members in appreciation!

bgchuby01 10-12-2007 10:22 PM

Gino they are too expensive for that

LubeJobs42 10-12-2007 10:36 PM
