ElectricalTooling & Equipment3MediumApprentice Electrician$ implied
An apprentice electrician needs an affordable, scalable modular toolbox system that won't be a theft target and allows gradual investment without requiring a system restart when expanding.
Existing systems are either too expensive (Milwaukee Packout), not scalable without restarting (Craftsman VersaStack), or lack modularity and theft deterrence at a reasonable price point.
