I'm all for having your own space. http://www.rod-o-rama.com
But I'm still not a fan of leaving your tools lying around. I try to put
everything back at the end of the day. That way when I need it I know
exactly where it is and don't have to go looking.

Harbor Freight is your friend for things like that. For regular tools like
sockets and ratchets Sears is my reccomendation, though I also have a good
selection of Mac, Cornwell, and Snap-On. I wish they would quit bringing
that truck by here, it's just so damn tempting..
