I bought a new tool box. 32 drawers. The last one I'll ever buy,
So I've never really thought about it before, never really matter much either. What do I want in tool organizers?
All the typical stuff you'd find in a home shop for mostly automotive work as I have a box already for the machine shop.

Yep, HF box. Boxes, like outdoor grills. always overpriced but the HF are more than good enough for me. I'm not a tool snob, but I knew when something is worth a dollar.
My deal is I tend to keep like tools together, on the same side of the shop as the thing I'm using. Lathe tools over there, mill tools over there, air/electric/wall power tools by the lift, and this box in the middle for hand tools. I like all those idea's, it beats the "throw it the drawer method" I've been using for 45 years. With multiples of most things and foam cutouts, I'd be at it for moths figuring that out but it also look super nice. I don't like people so no one is looking at it but me anyway.
I have another box in the trailer, filled with most things we need at the track including not so high quality ones I can throw at other drivers when needed. That box is always a giant mess but I promised myself not to do that on this. Hopefully I can keep my own promises.

Many things at HF are but if you know what your looking for some things are just less expensive.
The HF boxes are just as good as my Waterloo stuff.
