Time to show them off lady's..garages,portable tool boxes,bags, cases and even karts..So far all ive seen for sockets is either the metal strip where you can pop them on there or the foam where you have to cut it to hold all your tools which looks great too. Lemme see those pics..

That might give ya an idea or 2..

Theres also the "tool roll"

 

Great thread but i meant how are your tools organized in your tool boxes and stuff not what tools do you carry.. Im about to start to peice together my tools (Becomming an A&P) AVIATION MAINT. ohh and i get 50% off snap-on tools so if you guys need a couple crazy expensive snap-on tools.. let me know.. i cant buy you the whole damn store but small kits or sets of something. They have a bad ass cordless impact gun that Im DEF. gonna get. But i think imma just stick with Craftsman for all the other regular tools.. their just easier to return..

 

No I know what you meant, But there were some storage ideas in there...


And fwiw I heard that snap on impact gun was this shiznit..

 

Damn some of those people dont need a garage.. theyve got it all in the truck..lol thanks scuba

 

crapsman tools are ok in the begining, and they're great for at home.
i'm an A&P mech for "The" airline in ATL. trust me when i say buy the real good stuff, mac, snap-on, s&k, matco. they're made to tighter tolerances, the chrome doesn't chip off, and they don't break. the Crapsmans stuff isn't made the way it was 20 years ago. at home i need to have doubles of everything just incase the sears stuff breaks which it often does. i'll get some pics of my airplane tools in there drawers in the morning and the sweet tote tray i built from alumnium.

 

My tools are not ORGANIZED, they are DIS-Organized!

 

Sheetmetal is the A&P's metal of choice huh.. Were making one of those in a sheetmetal class were taking..

 

I have three small bags that seperate wrenches, screwdrivers, and misc tools. that (for now) goes into a milk crate that holds everything else. and all my stuff is crapsman (i like that)

 

At work we color code everyones tools, my tool color happens to be white. Our cash control department gives us all thier old money bags. I use them for sockets 1 for 1/4 &3/8 and another for 1/2 and the bags happen to be white. I also use wrench wraps to keep the wrenches in order. I keep two of every wrench and don't bother with the crossover metric/standard sizes (like 9/16 and 14mm).

No pics so visualize a 6x10 money bag with a zipper.

 

sounds a lot like what i have - $2 at walmart and made from canvas

 

Here is the tote tray i made from 2024-t3. the handle and drawer are made from a Corian type counter top material.
In the drawers in the tool box i've used rubber mat,and other material that was used to ship parts in.
