Why is it that manufacturers who sell tools that come in a case don't leave enough space in the molded cases for accessories, LIKE THE NAILS YOU USE IN A NAIL GUN!
Years ago, I bought Sears and Milwaukee and their cases had room for extra blades, drill bits and stuff. Then tools started being sold without them and, since I like the idea of having my tools protected, I bought a cheapo tool box (used to be metal, now cheapos are all plastic) to store them in if they didn't come in one.
Nowadays, the tool boxes are molded to fit the tool and leave little room for anything else. I've got a Hitachi finish nailer that I can barely get a small plastic package of nails into the case with it if I deform it enough.
A while back, I bought a DeWalt case for my angle grinder ( $40) and found that it will fit the grinder if you carefully wrap the cord in a certain way and position the guard just right. Otherwise, you're not going to get the lid closed. Forget about putting any qty of disks, you can MAYBE put a few extra one in it. Don't even think about putting a wire wheel or cup wheel in there with it. I've since got a "HOMER" box from HD to use ($9) that has plenty of room for extras.
All I can say is that the guys who design these cases don't work with the tools in the real world. End of rant.
