Back when I was a professional schmieraffe, I had a very organized
tool box. Time was money, and so it was important that I could find
any tool quickly, often without looking, and at the end of each job, I
could scan the toolbox and make sure they were all in place, and not
in the engine compartment of a 1973 VW Bus (bye-bye, 22mm wrench!).
Nowadays, I have a lot more tools in the same space, so they'd got
like Mark's. I picked up a nice Craftsman top box, and used it to
spread out the most-used tools so once again I can find what I need,
mostly, as soon as I can remember which draw is the screwdriver
drawer, and which is pliers.
Unfortunately, the top box is wider than my Mac bottom box by a few
inches, so it looks odd. No more deals on a box that's the same
quality as the top box... and so it goes...
