Well chaps after going round and round the block with trying every kind of tool box to tote bags . I started 19 years ago with a cantiliever box then went to plastic stanley boxes and lastly used tote bags but found i was pulling stuff out everytime to get a tool required . Well ive been full circle and im back to a cantiliever box made by facom. Its really good for being orginised ( kind of) and i use my magma tech bag for servicing and maintenence . So see how different everyones tool kits are. What do you guys use or even post a pic . You join in aswell Ray post a pic of your daily tools cheers folks get your pics up

Yep and is that a pair of crescent grips ?

The F shaped spanner I got from a car boot sale for 50p over 20 years ago, it was a bit rusty but it cleaned up and I think it was a bargain!!

Yes they are Crescent grips ( red handles) bought new about 15 years ago, very good grips.
 
the F shaped ones are footprints, best tools in my kit after my bahco adjustables

No the Footprints are next to the F shape adjustable facing the other way , in the first picture taken from above the F shape spanner is on the left with the top touching the orange tape measure.
 
gotcha lol, i need my eyes testing i didn't even see them only the footys

The footys also cost me 50p second hand over 20 years ago, I like this type because of the knurled adjusting nut, I do have some of the original type in the garage as a spare.
 
It's great to know I have something to look forward to, and that I may have wasted my money.

Thanks for that,lame.

only here to help and wondering what to try next, all my bags are in bits and I have a selection of oversized stanley boxes on wheels whith trolley handles etc in the shed that are so heavy I couldnt keep carting them around :) I can see a briefcase version next and not caring everything around.
 
Just ordered a Veto PAC Laptop XL for the new job.

Currently using a case from RS. Covers the majority of the building services and gas work I do.

You can never have enough tools or bags to put them in.
