I bought a cordless circular saw before Christmas, a Bosch, at an appealing saving without a battery or charger which I already had. I only needed a case.
I bought a Stanley 'Pro-Stack' toolbox, then shaped some polystyrene inside so the saw fits more snugly in the box than it would have in one of Bosch's own costly cases.
Funny thing is, today I found a DeWalt toolbox that looked so similar in the Screwfix advert, I had to check to see who made mine.
The pictures are slightly different sizes but don't be deceived - the boxes are identical proportions.
Aside from the colours and labelling, these two boxes are indistinguishable. All the mouldings and fittings are identical - they can only be from the same moulds.
I'm not complaining - it's a really tough case and it was cheap at whichever shop I bought it from. Perhaps the retailers are forced to offer them at a continuous discount because they know there's nothing exclusive about them?
