[Closed] Bike tool box, which one

I have a small plastic tool box that has housed my collection to date of bike related tools. As time has passed it has got ot the stage where it is no longer big enough and need to get a bigger one.

With the current one being plastic over time it has started to become mis-shaped and no longer closses properly. It only cost £5 and has done well but just wondered what everyone else uses as a tool box that is no too large so that it can be thrown in the car when off to ride etc.

Too small?

This is another £5-from-B&Q job.

Sit on fisherman's box, puts you at a good height for working on crank and gears when the bike is on the floor or in a low stand. Tupperware type boxes to sub divide inside. Salvaged mine at no cost, can't see them costing a great deal anyway.

These are excellent: http://www.screwfix.com/p/stanley-sort-master-organiser/73900

already had one and snapped up a few more when they were on clearance and in stock. I remember Mole Valley Farmers had some for about £9.99 when I was last in so less than RRP.

They also do these which are smaller but clip together:

I have lots and lots of toolboxes for car stuff, house stuff, electronics, bonding etc but I love organisers for my bike stuff as they make stuff easier to find.
