CLC Custom LeatherCraft 1529 16 In. Center Tray Tool Bag, 16 Pocket

Excelente

This bag works great to hold small hand tools used during cabinet installation ( chisels ,screwdrivers, mallets and small hammers, block plane, end cutters, etc]. It is not perfect,but it works well enough so far. That being said it is not easy to find an ideal bag for this kind of work, and this one does the job pretty well.Here is what I have found about it. It is small enough to fit in cabinets and keep out of the way, and hold the necessary tools. Because of its size I have cut my tool set down to what I use and eliminated clutter, though if this same bag was offered in a 1-3 inch longer length I would have opted for that because hammers and mallets would fit the tote better. The bag is open, allowing me to easily locate and access tools, not having to root around in a dark hole full of little pockets. This also helps to be able to easily take a quick inventory of my tools and prevent me from leaving any behind. I also really like the small parts bin that fits in the center, although its construction could be better. I suspect the plastic tabs will break of in time and it will need to be replaced long before the bag itself, but I knew that going in. It has removable partitions in one direction, and allows me to keep drill and driver bits closed organized, a real plus. The pocket that houses the bin has enough excess room to store a few long narrow tools like pry bars. A loop to secure tools on the ends of the pocket interior would be a nice addition. For that matter a narrow long deep pocket for tall skinny tools such as screw drivers and pry bars would nice.The tools are secured in the totem via loops on one side and pockets on the other. This is fairly standard. My only criticisms are that the pockets could be a little deeper to better support taller tools. Maybe have various widths for wide and narrow tools. Same for the loops. Also the loop band could be wider, or mounted lower to help prevent tools from slipping through .For the most part I quite satisfied with this bag. It was inexpensive (and offered at a lower price the day after I purchased it) and expected I would be replacing it at some point. The quality and construction are good, as has been with all CLC bags I've owned, and it works fairly well. Again for the type of work I do it is hard to find a perfect bag, but this is serving me well. Everyone's tool set varies, and this one works pretty well for mine.I did not proof read, don't judge.

This is a very sturdy reinforced canvas tool bag, I will be using it for my copious amounts of jewelry and metalsmithing tools that I have to haul around. I will update this review if I encounter any issues over the course of my ownership of this bag.The center plastic compartment is not super high-quality the lid doesn't quite shut all the way, but it does have four rows that are divided into 6 compartments each with removable dividers. Each individual subdivided compartment is 2 inches cubed. The plastic case is held in place with a velcro strap.One concern I had before I bought this bag was that it appeared most of the Pockets were open top I am pleased to say there is one large velcro pouch on the front exterior, it looks about the right size for large tape measure and on the back of the bag there is a large zipper pouch which is about the size of a child's pencil case. These two pouches in combination with the plastic case should provide suitable storage for items I'd be concerned about dropping out of the bag.There are several individual spots on the exterior rear of the bag that look like they would hold pens or Sharpies well. There is also a metal bracket on the front of bag that says Tape Holder.I could go on and describe more pockets, however I don't want this review to get too long. If there are any specific questions, just comment on this review and I will get back to you.I've also included some photos of the inside pockets that I would have found helpful when trying to decide on which tool bag to purchase. Standard tube of caulk/silicone included in first photo for size reference.If you found this review helpful, please up vote it and leave a review on a product you've purchased.

This tool bag is nearly perfect.The canvas material is very dense and durable. Lots of storage space and impressive construction quality.The storage bin is great. Has removable dividers so you can expand the compartments horizontally. Great for longer items that don't fit perfectly in the squares.The only gripe I have is for the screwdriver slots. It has non elastic straps so larger screwdriver handles are a very snug and difficult fit, while smaller screwdrivers feel like they can fall through at any time. Also, there is no slots or pockets for the tips of the screwdrivers to slide into, so they constantly twist around or get snagged on things. To remedy this the bag has a stiff flap that is meant as the lining for the bottom of the side compartments. I have it folded up to cover the tips of the screwdrivers for that side of the bag. Not a huge deal but the sturdiness and support for that side of the bag is now reduced because I am using it to protect the tips of screwdrivers rather than the bottom of the bag.I'm definitely happy with the purchase, but just those two things keep this from being a positively perfect product.
