If you were going to tote half of that vise grip collection in your trailer, you'd need to add another axle! eek wave

Nice thing about entropy is that it's always waiting there for you.

I have a reall hodge-podge of wrenches, different brands ect. I have my drawer split into 5 areas with two peices sheetmetal bent into a wide-flat 'U' (or a 'C' channel...). I put everything smaller than 3/8 in the left side, everything larger than 7/8 on the right side. The middle three are split with three different sizes in each area, all are VERY easy to pick apart when you're searching.

Code
Less |  3/8   |  7/16  |  1/2  | Larger
Than |  9/16  |  5/8   | 11/16 | Than 
3/8  |  3/4   | 13/16  |  7/8  | 7/8


This'll sound a little dumb, but after you use it a while it works really easy.

I have a Plastic Box with some Husky Tools I keep in the trunk and or use at the U-Pull-It added some things so is really an emergency kit it works OK to keep things in place as it has a compartment for loose stuff I added.
I have the largest stuff picked up in cabinets in sections like auto body, etc. Have boxes dedicated for things like Die Grinder and Sand Paper Rolls bottom is buffing wheels and compounds
The main toolbox is neatly done so I can find stuff
