I'm about ready to graduate from my yellow plastic tool box into a tool carrier that is more versatile and portable. One option that I found was the CLC 1167 30 Pocket 24-Inch Roller Tote Bag. The best feature of this tool bag is that it is on wheels. And let's face it, no matter how strong you are, it's just easier to wheel your tools around than to carry them on your shoulder, especially if you're talking on your cell phone at the same time. The 23-inside and 7-outside pockets of the CLC 1167 tool bag let you to keep smaller and/or fragile items separate from your larger tools, as well as keeping tools where you know where to find them when you need them.

The CLC 1167 tool carrier has wheels on the bottom for portabilty and an internal metal frame that holds the bag open for easy access. It's also big enough on the inside so that you can put a circular saw and a hard hat inside, in addition to other tools. With padded handles and an adjustable shoulder strap you can still be "the man" when you don't feel like rolling it around. Available for just under 40 bucks at Toolking.com.

If you are looking for something just a bit smaller than the CLC 1167 24 inch roller work bag, then you should check out the CLC 1537 13 inch multi-compartment tool carrier. This smaller tool bag is perfect for carrying your most frequently used tools with you, without them getting jumbled together or possibly damaged. The CLC 1537 features 23 pockets inside and 10 pockets outside to help separate and organize your tools and accessories. The nice feature of this work bag is that the zippered side panels open out to lay flat on the surface you set the work bag. This gives you full visibility of all the tools in the side pockets so you are not scrounging around for the right tool when you need it. These panels zipper up to prevent your tools from falling out when you're carrying or storing the tool carrier.

Other features of the 13 inch tool bag include vertical tool pockets that keep your hand tools in sight for quick access, padded, reinforced web carrying handles and an adjustable shoulder strap to make the tool bag comfortable and easy to carry. The CLC 1537 13 inch tool bag comes in assorted colors and is available for under 25 dollars at Toolking.com. This tool bag really makes a nice gift for a contractor or homeowner.
