After adding the XFE to my collection, my FLEX polishers quickly outgrew the standard FLEX canvas bag that I have been using. I have been looking to get another bag to house my collection but was worried about potential damage that may occur when I need to take my machines with me on the go.

Here I am using a Pelican case and cut out the foam where the machines reside. Now the machines are completely safe and have nothing to worry about. The best part is the case has wheels on it and I can move it around like a carry on luggage.

Wanted to share this with you all. You can make it out to hold whichever machines you need to secure. Just make sure the inside of the box is wide enough to swallow the machines you want to secure. This is not an official FLEX case. Just a Pelican case in which I added the vinyl stickers.

Great idea. Thanks for sharing. What are the dimensions of the case?
 
Now that is a cool idea! I'm super impressed by nearly every aspect of this, Mike. Well done my friend!
 
Mike, did you use an electric knife to make those straight cuts in the foam?

Frank, I actually used my finger to separate the foam. You can see in the top foam the little pre cut cubes. You can separate them running your finger through the lines.
 
Very cool Mike. :props:

Classy, professional & keeping the triplets safe n sound. Razor wire to keep the mischief out & you'll be set!

That looks like it was made to hold those 3 machines! Well, it was but you know what i mean. Very impressive work, Mike. Very professional appearance.
 
Great idea especially if you travel for detailing jobs.

Very cool! What's the part number on that one? 1550?

Thanks Justin. It is the 1560.

It is the perfect size for machines. Not too big nor to small. Holds three comfortably and as a bonus it has wheels for easy maneuverability.

Remember if you ever go to a Wal-Mart or store with that in the car to cover the "Flex Power Tools" sticker.
