![]() With an additional 11 drawers that include 100lb soft close slides and a center drawer with a moveable divider, the Work Station can support a weight capacity of 2,200 lbs. “Exclusive to the 60” Mobile Work Station is a 22” multi-position metal peg wall, which provides a convenient place to store frequently used items. One reader on Instagram has suggested he would like this for a kitchen island! I’ve got some character grade white oak that would look pretty snappy on this. I assume that it means that it could be easily replaced as well. The 60″ Mobile Work Station is a bit of a departure from the other chests, having a hardwood work surface instead of a rubber mat. This benchtop can be reversed in the event that one side gets carved up too much. ![]() It can be locked independently when closed for security of personal valuables, mobile devices, etc. ![]() Like its older sibling, the 30″ has a pull-out drawer with a lid that serves as a desk, handy for a laptop or tablet or yellow pad. From the look of the next drawer up, it might be a good size and place for battery storage, right near the cordless tools. I’d like to have my M18™ Fuels and Compacts in the same location. I’m curious to know if a second set of drill partitions could be added to allow a line of six drills and drivers. The deep bottom drawer of the 30″ unit has partitions for upright drill storage and space for other bulky items. When closed, the top clears 9½”, a handy space for frequently used items. These include integrated power strips, external mounts for chargers, partitions in the deep drawers for drills and larger tools, a lockable separate drawer for valuables and a pull-out laptop work surface/drawer. The combination shares a number of features with its big brother. Not that it matters much except to my inner interior decorator. The 30″ Steel Storage Chest and Cabinet look to be a match for the 46″ units I have now, but the press release doesn’t include dimensions, so I don’t know if they are the same height. Milwaukee calls these “storage solutions” and to me they are just that, so I’m considering adding one to the shop at work and one at home. ![]() The 46″ combination that I put in the shop last year has been a boon to the organization, care and security of my collection of Milwaukee tools, but I find that some drawers are getting loaded with additional layers of hand tools, and some larger cordless power tools are residing in much less convenient wooden cabinets because I am simply running out of room. Now the ability to add storage and even a durable work surface to a shop or garage means not having to build stationary shelves and offers the advantage of mobility whether you have one, two or all three of these pieces. These I imagine will be well received, as the 46″ Steel Storage Chest and Cabinet launched at this time last year is still the most searched, most popular item on this blog. That’s the first part of the press release from Milwaukee announcing their two new tool storage units. “MILWAUKEE, WI – Following the release of their widely popular 46” Steel Storage Chest and Cabinet, Milwaukee Tool continues to expand their Storage Solutions with the addition of two new steel storage units – a 60” Mobile Work Station and a 30” Steel Storage Chest and Cabinet. Built for extreme productivity, the new storage solutions are the most durable and best equipped storage units on the market today.”
