I came up with an idea that kinda helps.
Wife is a packrat, came home with a shopping cart that was being thrown out by the supermarket. What am I supposed to do with that? Well, it was one of those high-frame types, so I took the basket off, leaving the rolling frame, and put a stainless steel butt plate from a milking parlor on it- about 1.5 X 2.5 feet- with the one inch lip up.
I put my most commonly used tools on it, and that's where they live. Set of combination wrenches, screwdrivers, pliers, vise-grips, socket set (mounted on an organizer), extensions, etc. Each type of tool has a general area where it lives, but nothing formal. Things tend to get disorganized over time, so I occassionally straighten it out and put the extras that have accumulated back into the tool box.
I especially try to keep stuff picked up off the floor, mainly for safety reasons- ever stepped on a 9/16 socket on a concrete floor? Can be hazardous ro your health.
