When I worked in aviation, I was always on the move, instead of in a shop. I had my tools broken into several boxes so I could move them by myself. The main box was a 3-drawer Craftsman. The sockets and drive tools were in another 3-drawer Craftsman. Files, sheet metal tools, and tap & die sets were in a 2-drawer Craftsman, and there were three Craftsman carry boxes with lift-out trays for the various other items.
It all was pretty well organized, and didn't take up all that much space when stacked up. I needed to spread things out in order to work out of them.
