a bunch of years back I bought a pretty complete set of sockets. They came in a plastic tool box with the trays and indentations in the trays to hold them all nice and pretty. (I can't find a picture of my set, but imagine three slide-out trays like the one attached in a plastic tool box). This weighs something like 30#, and depending on what I'm working on I never need more than half of the tools (don't need the metric when working on the Chevy, or english when working on the FXT, etc). Its a pain in the ass to haul around.

I've been digging around for a good way to carry sockets in a soft-sided tool bag. I've found a couple different magnetic socket caddies, but I just don't see the magnets being strong enough to hold the sockets when thrown into a bag.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

BAM!

Solved for under $5.

I played with those in the store a couple months back, just didn't have enough confidence that the sockets would stay put. If they're going to pop off I might as well put them in ziplock bags (with vent holes to prevent condensation)

I've had pretty good luck with the all metal versions.

gf bought me some of the magnetic snap-on ones for xmas. i am very happy with them, though they haven't seen much travel/throwing around yet. the magnets are much stronger than i expected.

I have some of these sitting around that you can have.
