If you’ve ever juggled armloads of collet racks, tooling trays, and hand tools across the shop floor from the tool crib to your CNC you know the struggle is real. That’s where the Huot Toolscoot steps in—it’s a rugged, roll-ready solution designed specifically for machinists who need to move tooling safely and efficiently from tool crib to machine and back.
Whether you’re setting up a CNC mill or running a job on a lathe, the Toolscoot is like having a mobile tool crib at your side. Designed and manufactured in the USA, this cart was built from the ground up for serious shop use. Its heavy-duty construction, smart layout, and modular storage options help reduce tool changeover time, minimize dropped tools, and keep your high-value holders protected and organized. Built Shop Tough The Huot Toolscoot isn’t some off-the-shelf utility cart dressed up for the shop floor. This thing is built to work—hard. It’s made entirely from heavy-gauge steel, finished with a tough powder coat that stands up to chips, dings, and general shop abuse. Once it’s loaded up with tooling, it rolls smoothly thanks to locking front casters and fixed rear wheels that give you control and stability without wobble. But what really makes the Toolscoot a machinist’s best friend is how it’s laid out. You can choose from several configurations that offer tilted trays, vertical toolholder racks, and built-in drawers—so you’re not just pushing around a pile of gear; you’ve got a purpose-built mobile station. Every toolholder rack is precision-machined to hold your CAT 40s, CAT 50s, BT 30s, HSK 63s—whatever you run—with no risk of tools tipping over or bouncing out. And the trays are angled just right so you can see and grab what you need without digging around. Toolscoot Models and Options Huot didn’t stop with just one design. They’ve created a range of Toolscoot models to match the way you work. For basic setups, you can go with the CAT 40 or CAT 50 versions that hold either 18 or 40 tools—great for shops doing frequent tool changeovers. If you need to carry more than just holders, the combo carts mix in drawers and shelves so you can stash collets, inserts, wrenches, or whatever else you need at your station. Looking for something a bit more streamlined? The ToolScoot II has a slimmer footprint that’s easier to maneuver in tight spaces and includes thoughtful upgrades like a built-in handle and optional storage bins. And for the high-output shop, the ToolScoot Pro takes it up a notch with even more stability, higher load capacity, and an ergonomic design that’s built for all-day use. Want your cart to match your shop colors or include your company branding? No problem--Huot offers custom finish options to keep things looking sharp and professional. Specs That Matter
