Default RE: Tool Box?

It is now time to get ready for those xcountry activities by getting the travel tool kit together. I have enjoyed the threads that have outlined the tools they have found essential to carry on their RV. What I would like to get is some advice/pictures of/ideas about what a quality/light weight tool box should be.

Thanks in advance for your advice and help.

I use one of the Van's practice toolboxes, modified with a couple of pieces of piano hinge to attach it to the baggage floor.

Call me stupid, because try as I might, with various search terms (cross country, tool kit, tool box, travel kit, etc) I cannot find the threads to which you refer. Can someone help steer me in the right direction? Thanks in advance!!

And on the same topic: I learned the hard way about three weeks ago that a "spare nose gear tube" should be included in said kit
