WHAT IS THE PULL OUT The Pull Out is a mobile tool/utility box. It is fully removable, completely portable and height adjustable. In short, a dynamic work station. It fits in the back of a pickup truck or van and when removed, stands on legs and wheels, which lower to the ground, either manually or electrically.
WHAT THE PULL OUT CAN DO
Pull Out can be equipped with a complement of power tools, selected by the user or customized for a specific industry. There is space in the Pull Out for storing hand tools and hardware. The Pull Out is designed for transport in pick-up trucks and vans. It is easily unloaded by one person, to stand on its own drop-down, adjustable-height legs with wheels – for easy positioning at the job site. The Pull Out is the only device on the market which addresses productivity and profitability.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE The Pull Out Corporation will be able to control the toolbox market and tool innovation while building a brand so strong it will virtually prevent competition from entering the market. Tool Money™, Retail Incentive – gives our retail partners an opportunity to up-sell the customer into spending more money on tools. Retailers will make money on the Pull Out, Tool Money™, and additional sales generated from up-selling. Tool Money™, Tool Manufacturer Incentive – this will make the tool manufacturers scramble to figure out how to get the Pull Out buyer to spend their Tool Money™ on the manufacturers tools instead of the competitions. By allowing them to freely use the “Pull Out” name to be associated with tools that fit into the Pull Out: this will entice them to market a “Pull Out” line of tools in an effort to get Tool Money™ from the customer in addition to up-sells from both the customer and retailers effort. Most importantly - as a whole, this will provide a long awaited opportunity for tool manufacturers to design new, innovative products. The “Pull Out” lines of tools that are built for the Pull Out, will become the industry standard. This will associate their tools with productivity and increased profitability for the end user that ,of course, will own a Pull Out.
CURRENT STATUS
We have selected an award winning, state of the art plastics manufacturing company that specializes in low pressure injection molding of structural foam and structural web resins. Fine tuning our design for the six molds. Machining the molds comes with significant up front cost, but will allow us to manufacture nearly 2 million units before it needs to be refurbished. Promoting our Tool Pull Out to several key retailers and tool manufacturers creating enthusiasm for our spring release. Planning trade show attendance beginning with the National Hardware show in Las Vegas, Nevada May. The Hardware show will allow us to grow our retail base nationally into Ace, True Value, Do-it-Best etc. potentially growing our retail exposure by an additional 10,000 locations. It also allows us to lock tool manufacturers into designing their “Pull Out” lines of tools. Positioning the Pull Out – with its unique design, customized features, assortment of compartments and flexibility in the field – as the latest advance in productivity improvement under the buyer’s control.

TOOLBOX MARKETPLACE TODAY
Included on this page are several types of toolboxes/worktables that can be hauled to, and used at the job site. This is what is currently available to today’s contractor. Storagemaster Rolling Work Bench: This is a fine workbench that has wheels and storage and is extremely durable. Although the wheels give it the ability roll around on flat surfaces, it is extremely heavy. The weight of this particular item makes it difficult to load into a pick-up truck, empty, with several strong men. Forget moving it off a truck when it is fully loaded. Portable Work Table: This can be unloaded from a pick-up truck by one person even though it is heavy. It is durable enough to be slid off the truck and onto the ground but this creates many safety issues. Classic Chest: Similar to the JOBOX on the following page. Both items offering a secure storage bin to be left around at a job site, but are little more than that. Extremely heavy, requiring several people to move it empty and when full, the tools are stacked onto one another. Wheels are available at an additional cost but it does not address transporting to and from the job site.
TOOLBOX MARKETPLACE TODAY
The tool boxes to the right are what is currently available to the contractor and are considered to be today’s standard. This type of toolbox can be easily transported to and from the job site but are attached to the truck and have little to offer in terms of increasing productivity.
THE FUTURE OF THE TOOLBOX
Tomorrows contractor will need to be more mobile, organized and productive in their increasingly competitive industry. They will need to gain the advantage of being able to arrive on the jobsite unload, set-up, and begin working in a fraction of the time it currently takes them. The Pull Out satisfies each and every one of these needs. The Pull Out means business for the 21st century contractor.
