How does everyone store their tools? Do you keep everything in one tool box? Separate tool box for wiring, repotting, & general stuff? I go back & forth on what I like best.
use a bucket with one of the canvas tool keeper things for my tools,
I have milk crates for wire, separated by copper vs aluminum.
I use a bucket with one of the canvas tool keeper things for my tools, cut paste, other miscellaneous odds and ends. Most of my tools are in tool rolls that go in the bucket.
I have 3 different tool rolls. 1 is all my hand carving tools, 1 is my newer set of stainless tools and 1 is my older carbon steel tool set.
I have a dye grinder in a separate tool box and a battery powered dremel for small jobs in a smaller tool box.
I like yours probably the best & almost think the old tool boxes I had are almost too big for everything. But will give me something to tinker with, think on when I get around to cleaning my shelves in the garage. We use the shelves like you have in the walk in coolers at the restaurant & I grabbed a few of the old ones we replaced a year ago to use for storage in the garage. Just need to organize them again.
Yep...I'm there too.I keep my tools under all the cut branches, dead leaves and roots mixed in with old potting mix and preferably out in the rain. Sometimes when emptying out the rubbish in a couple of years you get a nice surprize. It's the only way to get that highly prized seasoning and antique patina.
I had 3 tool boxes for separating everything & then switched to a big one to hold most but then don't want to lug it into the yard so I like your idea, think I even kept my tool roll for carbon tools. But BVF might have best one that fits.

Yes I've noticed that I don't need all the tools after I put them all together. Lol I think I did it so I could put the wire in with it all. Just adds up to a bulky, heavy tool box I've lugged outside the garage once I think.I never need aluminum and copper when wiring a tree so I can just grab whichever milk crate I need.
I rarely need to use ALL the tools so I have them separated and can grab whatever is needed for the task at hand.
Also makes it easier if I have to grab something like the die grinder for another purpose, non-bonsai related
