What’s the best way to pack and carry tools on safari – for the car and other things? The “work” boxes with clip lids in the shops are chintzy, fragile, noisy, and awkward to pack.

If you want a one-stop tool container that fits your equipment and your requirements, the best answer is to have one tailor-made…for you. Your tools, your way of working, your pattern of packing.

What is likely to work best is a canvas carry-all. Padded inside to keep it quiet. And with some sort of stiffener that allows to you squash it into tight-fit luggage space, but with enough rigidity to ensure the compartments stay in shape well enough to keep their contents tidy, findable and protected.

Essentially you will be making an individual “bag” for each category of items, and then an overall big bag that all the others fit into rationally.
