I’ve never had a proper tool bag before. As a home DIYer I’ve just had loose tools on shelves in the garage. I finally got fed up of running up and down stairs to get the next tool I needed on a job. This thing is great. I can fit most things in and I have a few other tools to add - like some scissors to stop borrowing the kitchen ones. I may even get a shorter, wider one for longer tools that are less frequently used.

Let’s see your tool bags and setup.

    Exactly.

    For the longest time I’ve had job-specific tool boxes, often with duplicate basic tools in them. So a jigsaw box would have a speed square, pencils, tape measure, etc, and those things would be in other boxes.

    It’s worth the extra few $ for the basic things to be there. Same with precision screwdriver sets - one in my house bag, but also in my phone repair kit, one in the electronics kits, etc.
