Thought I'd share in case anyone else has the same problem. I have a nice little Kobalt tool set from Lowe's that I keep in the truck (my real tools are at work, but I usually wrench on the ski at home/lake). I didn't want the blow molded case kind, too heavy and not as easy to stow in the truck, so I got the kind with a bag. Great set but has like 10 pockets inside for 125 things :crying:

I was tired of spending more time emptying the thing to find tools than working on the ski, so I picked up a few 99 cent "nail aprons" from Lowe's and stitched a few tracks in them for my wrenches, then sharpie'd the size. Now that pouch rolls up and ties neatly, so my tools are no longer going rogue. I made another one also for some pliers as well.

Now, off to the lake. Peace

I thought I must be the only one that uses wrench rolls because I never see them for sale at the store. I'm gonna have to see if any of my friends have a sewing machine so I can use your idea. Great thinking

I use a $0.99 carabiner and hold them in order by the box end. Wont hold water. That is a great idea however.

Yeah I had a really hard time finding ANY locally, they are great for situations like this!
 
Solid innovation sir! My metric wrenches came with a similar pouch. Most of the stuff in the garage is standard sizes so it's nice to be able to just grab the roll and go to work when it's time work on the SJ.
