I recently attended several stages of the TOC and noticed that many of the team mechanics had the same plastic tool boxes that were very neat. Do any of you know who makes the boxes and where one can obtain them? Thanks.

Could be one of these cases. They make all sorts of custom cases.

Howe cases or similar, pallets are formatted to hold standard hand tools, bike tools usually fit where ever you find a place and are sold separately.

Pedro's has one in their catolog. Formatted and filled with bike tools. I like Pedro's tools too.

Go here and view the large selection of complete tool kits as well as just the cases themselves. You can also have custom cases made.

They used to be called Contact East and Jensen Tools.

I'm surprised Park Tool hasn't offered a case like this yet, in blue of course!
