Socket Roll-new product
Hey guys sorry if this is not acceptable to post stuff like this but I thought I would share this here. (Moderators feel free to remove if necessary)
I am in no way associated with this company or guy. I just thought since it looked helpful for me instead of annoying plastic rows or just a bag or
randomness, it might interest some of you. This is the link to purchase the product. They have a website too but the video on this page does a way
better job than their website.

I was searching for a rollable socket storage device and this popped up on google images and I was sent this link to purchase by the owner. Its brand
new, it seems pretty cool and i'm giving it a go. It is a rollable socket set storage device/thing. It is not dirt cheap($50 plus shipping) but it
should free up some space in my jeep from the plastic rows while keeping it more organized. Just to clarify even though it says it several times on
the website, this is just the organizer, not any tools/sockets. Thanks

Looks kewl, but I didn't notice any metric #s in there. Plus I've found if you're in a jeep and bouncing, fabric 'kits' tend to wear holes where the
metal pieces are when playing bouncy-bouncy in the back country (and driving, too *grin*). Tool kits are a must by all means.... I enjoy my
favorites... a Mexican socket set (crescent wrench, mine's left-handed) and a Mexican backhoe (shovel) and Mexican winch (hi-lift jack and a loooong
chain). Can practically go anywhere with all 3. Thanx for the look.

Metric? I drive a jeep not a toyota. And I plan on mounting it like a fire extinguisher with a bracket or some really heavy duty velcro straps.

Now that I am retired I have more than enough time to look around for stuff like that. Also sorting out the metric is real fun.

Hey Guys. My name is Chris and I invented Socket Roll. As Luke said he is in no way associated with me or the product, but so want to thank him for
posting up. Thanks Luke.
I wanted to come on board and be available to answer any questions you may have, so hopefully so can be of some assistance.
@bajabuddha - as Luke mentioned, there are metric sizes for the 1/4, 3/8 and 1/2 drives. Also, I am glad you brought up the metal wearing through the
fabric issue. I was initially worried about the same thing so to be sure that didn't happen I inserted a layer of high density plastic behind each of
the rows and also gave the Socket Roll two layers of fabric which helps in protection of not only the sockets, ratchets and accessories, but also
gives you an outside layer that you can "beat up" without tearing into the inside layer. Glad you think it looks "kewl" too 
@Marc - Congratulations on being retired. It's always nice when you can sit back and enjoy life and do what you love to do. I'm also glad that you
have the time to sort through the metric sizes, but I want you to get out there and enjoy the toys you have instead of looking for sockets
Let me know if I can answer any other questions guys and don't forget to check out the link for additional info, like the complete list of socket
sizes and the FAQ.
