Field Box idea

I hope somebody can give me an idea on a field box
In the past I used to carry a Gallon of fuel a large battery, power panel and a bunch of tools
the problem was it was a real hassle carrying all that stuff what I’m looking to do is purchase a field box like a plastic tool box that would hold a 1/2 gallon of fuel , glow driver , battery to power the fuel pump
And some bins for parts and tools
I hope somebody can post links or pics with this idea

Thank You

I carry my fuel, battery, starter, alcohol bottle, paper towels, etc in a milk crate.

For parts and tools I use a fishing tackle box that has 3 divided trays that slide in the front. Visit your local sporting goods area of a department store and you should find something that you will like I am sure. The larger fishing tackle boxes work great for all those spare parts. I place my tools in the top part of it.

Field box

Check Heli-Proz-- They have exactly what your asking for, plastic case with fuel, battery ,pump,etc. Seems like its about $99.00 or so.

Make sure you got a swiss army knife in you pocket. Saves time by less trips back to the box to adjust the mix.

I went to home depot and bought a tote on wheels and mounted the power panel to the front of it. As for the inside I used some 1/8" plywood and made sections, one right in the center for a bottle of fuel and used a type F fuel can (rectangle shape like anti freeze jug) This created four seperate bins. In the rear bin I installed a 18Amp battery and charger with a plug that comes out the back so to charge I just wheel it into the garage and plug it in. The side compartment houses the starter motor very nice and the front I use for fast charger and that stuff. The box has a yellow tote tray for tools. I even installed a fuel pump inside the box and have it piped to an extennal Fitting for the fil line. Since the panale is on the front I dont even have to open to fill the fuel. I bungy cord hold stuff like heli to the top when you are rolling. It works nice.
