While Milwaukee makes quite a few items that can help you bring a little style and comfort to your workstation, there are probably a few things you’d like to bring that aren’t part of its modular system. Luckily, Milwaukee thought of this, too. There is a wide variety of hardshell bins, structured bags, and totes available that are all part of the Packout modular system. These can be used for any non-tool-specific items that you want to bring with you. Many still have more tool-oriented designs, but they also make a backpack for a more casual storage option.
The Milwaukee backpack isn’t like ordinary school bags, however. It’s made of tear-resistant basketweave 1680D ballistic nylon with all metal hardware and has an impact-resistant polymer base. There are 48 pockets for tools, but it also has a hardshell-protected electronics pocket in case you’d like to bring a laptop or tablet. This is an excellent way to transport a screen if you like watching TV or playing games on your break.
Of course, the biggest benefit of a backpack is its easy mobility. You can attach it to your Packout workstation for rolling out and setting up at a primary location, and then throw whatever you need in the bag and carry it wherever your legs can take you.
