I thought I would do a series on original, home-made Ecuadorian tool boxes, but besides five-gallon buckets and plastic grocery bags, using some sort of sewer pipe seems to be the most common.
The pipe is plugged on both ends, and a hatch is cut into it. Cabinet hinges or a piece of cloth hinge the hatch.
Since guys come to work on busses or bikes, a shoulder strap is a must.
It might be a short series.
