I need to be organized, my OCD, I am keeping my range tools in a Magul zippered bag,  need more organization...would like to find a tool roll up, small, but can't find anything.

This is for my range bag, so needs to be kind if small.  Any suggestions.  To get to a tool, I nee to dump the entire bag on the shooting bench now.  

Thanks,

I use Klein zippered bags.  Tough material, right size and can get them in Real Tree camo.

This may work, but I have another idea, my wife has in her sewing room more invested in sewing and embroidery machines than I do in guns (well maybe not, but she does not need to know that), she is going to make one for me.  I am ordering some 600 denier Cordura this weekend.

Going to lay out a design based on the tools I use.

Thanks,

Veto Pro Pac makes great bags for tools. They will last a lifetime. I hear they are working on a range bag.

Interesting you say this, I have a Veto Pro Pack for my house tools and these are the best bags made, period.   When I got it, the first thing I thought was these guys need to make a range bag,  

Thanks for the heads up.

Have her(ask) to make a roll up like the old wrench sets. At one point LBT used to make one but I think that was for a particular contract.

This looks kind of neat, not sure what you are carrying.

1) Freezer zip-lock bag - single or doubled-up
2) $1 pencil boxes at WalMart - there will be lots soon with the back-to-school stuff
3) Money zipper pouch (envelope shaped) in the WalMart stationary section.

All great ideas....i actually ended up using a Maxpedition EDC pack, not sure of the exact name, my son had one he was not using.  I am still going to try to make one, may save for a fall project.

Thanks for all of the input.

Found the solution.  Emdom MM Kit Mat. SKD Tactical has it on sale this weekend. 20% off.

Ordered one, will post pictures and set up when it gets in.

Triple Seven Gear makes some nice pouches that'd probably work well for what you need.

Picture of the Emdom Kit Mat I purchased from SKD Tactical...got it when they had a 20% sale.

It holds what I need, no more....the work mat works out perfect.

Yep, that would work for me.  

I've found that when the word "gun" ("zombie", "tactical", "SOCOM" or the like) gets associated with anything, the price goes up, so I look elsewhere.

Harbor Freight has a nice 14 pocket tool roll (https://www.harborfreight.com/14-pocket-tool-roll-93828.html) for about $10.  WalMart has several starting for about $9.50 (https://www.walmart.com/search/?query=tool%20roll&cat_id=0).  If it doesn't have to be a roll, I like to look for small parts and tool bags in photographic stores.  This is an example of one for about $8 (https://www.walmart.com/ip/Zeikos-Classic-Camera-Bag/665854562)

Think outside the gun aisle and you can probably save some money and have more choices.

I have used a tackle box for the longest timenow. The type with trays that stack on top of each other inside the box when closed and lift up and to the rear when opened.

Lots of little slots for organizing brushes and jags by caliber, and some room for the range essential tools along with all my cleaning supplies.

I actually need to get the large size box now because ineed more room. Ive had this med size box for well over 10 yrs now.

The biggest fear of using this box, if it was to flip over, ide have a fair amount of work to sort out any stuff from the top tray. i keep all my little parts inside the trays that stack and not the top tray.

If its only tools you need to organize, ive seen people use those wedge shaped zippered tool bags from home depot or lowes that have slots inside them for tool organization.

I really like the Condor Utility Pouch. I have one each for my AR10's, AR15's, and my G3 clones. Wish they had better pics of it on their website.

How about tackle boxes with adjustable dividers?

I have a similar version of this and use it daily.  Mine is around 10x12.  You can buy them with or without tools:
