I think I went too far on my test kit storage

[rjackson87]

How can I get one for what I've got mapped out, lol!

Not everything that is beautiful is necessary. Or at least that’s what my husband tells me when we go shopping.

It's got function too! I have too many extra things now too for testing, titration stuff for borates and phosphates. I live in farm land so I understand my phosphates will spike. Unless I understood wrong, but the borate stuff takes up a lot of space -- lol.

So. And believe me, I appreciate the over engineering. But the case and foam alone costs more than the TFpro does.

I mean. As much as I love the TFpro, it doesn't satisfy the itch to walk around with a nuclear football, but it's still amazing otherwise.

Promise me you'll pretend to answer the phone with a 'yes sir' and repeat a 20 digit alpha numeric sequence before pressing the speed stir button.

"Screw the procedure, I want somebody on the ******* phone before I kill 20 million people!"

And all this time, I thought my kit in a tackle box was pretty fancy… We have all our gear at work in pelican cases, they are tough for sure.

And sign off with “over and out”

Love this setup btw! Swweeet

I had some foam cut to fit all my testing supplies. Overkill? Yes. Convenient? Yes. Necessary? No.

Looks fantastic. Love the Pelican case as well.

Love it!

What an awesome kit.

I’m going to need 4 of them, and at least one will need a spot for a couple of cold beverages.

I don't know how I missed this when it was first posted but that kit is a thing of beauty!

Looks awesome. How did you tell them how to cut the foam. I’ve got a box doing nothing. It was for an old camera. I’d love to re purpose it.

While not as nice as the OP

I started using a Milwaukee pack out . Specifically the 48-22-8430

https://www.grainger.com/product/48..._HSyNiyf0LqIRIojYMxoCWPwQAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds

I use one big compartment for my SpeedStir and pH meter, and the other for my large bottle of CYA reagent

Then each small compartment holds all the chemicals needed for one specific test (with room for extra so when I order a new bottle of something because I am getting low I have room for both)

There is one small compartment left over for a towel as well

Since each container holds all that is needed for a specific test, and just for that test, it makes things easier as well. If I am testing CH, all the CH reagents are in the lower left compartment. I can just pull out that little bin and have all the components ready to go. Same for TA, same for pH, same for FC/CC, same for salt. Each has its own compartment.

Plus it is waterproof and off the shelf

I'm thinking of going this route as well, but doing the 20in deep packout with the foam inserts to do the cut outs for all the things.

Other options was using their 22in pack out 22in Packout

Warren Buffett uses the TFPro case!

I like the foam inserts - in concept. It seems every time I do something that is custom to specific tools or parts, cut out foam or specialized storage, I quickly acquire a new tool or upgraded tool that no longer fits the special storage.

I used their online case foam designer, combined with a caliper to measure each component.
