Need a non-standard wrench organizer

I recently picked up a new to me Snap-On KRA tool box set (4114\4107). One of the things I really like about this combo is the wide drawers and I’m currently moving my tools into it while trying to organize everything to make the most of the newly found space.

Thing is, I'm having a hard time finding a wrench organizer that I like. Most setups seem to be designed for 26" wide drawers and generally either configure the wrenches in the standard V pattern like this...

or a reverse V pattern (one side is small to large, the other is larger to small) like the standard Ernst version...

Basically what I want is a modified version of the Ernst so I can do this...

I want to go small to large on both sides and keep the wrenches even to the sides so as to leave as much room open between them as possible for other wrenches. The other issue is I want to use one of my shallow drawers (2" high) and the Ernst rails I got are too tall. I know they make a low profile version but again, it won't let me keep both sides small to large and hug the sides.

I've done a lot of looking but can't find anything close to what I'm looking for. I’m hoping someone here may be aware of some other option that I haven’t yet found?

Thanks! :beer:

I know that snap on sells the plastic rails individually so you can install them in any direction and width between that you want. Have you looked at that option?

These are the ones I mean http://buy1.snapon.com/catalog/item.asp?P65=&tool=storage&item_ID=646905&group_ID=675979&store=snapon-store&dir=catalog
I did see those but wrote them off as an Ernst knock off but after giving them a second look, I see how they are slightly different. Not exactly what I'm looking for but may work well enough if I can't find anything else? Thanks

Any other suggestions out there?

I really like these, You can make em for next to nothing, and they work well, can easily be made for sets with one or two doubles. (two 10mm in same set) All you have to do is wrap the wire around a 1/2 drive extension. I use black for metric, white for standard.
