i own CANADIAN TIRE

Sounds like my garage, my dad used to race cars so I have every tool imagineable and if I don't have it a five min. drive and I have a free world class mechanic with shop at my disposal, I even get to play with machine lathes, mills, tire mounters, and just about any other tool. My dad and I are both very good shadetree mechanics and we have so many tools that I ran out of stuff to buy him for presents. He is not into that crap most fathers are into.
 
About 2 dozens Phillips #2 screwdriver
assorted mix of other Phillips probably a dozen or so
Some more other screwdrivers.
Torx bits from 5 to 20
Allen wrenches both English and Metric
English and Metric sockets from tiny to 1/2 inch.
A couple soldering iron
some pliers, wire cutters, a few thingmajig and a last resort frustration relief tool :D (aka hammer)
And a thousands assorted lost screws from all of my previous repairs or mod projects. They seems to multiply even if I take only one screw out.
 
I have two seperate 'tool boxes'

One, being my closet, stacked mile high on floor and shelf of computer crap.

Two, Being my garage, which i randomly take tools out of and spread througout my room. Sadly I have like 15 philips head screw drivers throughout my room cuz I lose them as quick as i pick them up.
 
hey 4ghz, did you seperate the male from the female screws there? if not then thats why you have so many!!! seriously though, i have no toolbox specificly for pc work, i've got a craftsman 6583 drawer toolbox in my shop (ok so it may not have THAT many drawers, but it sometimes seems like it when you're looking for a tool) and i've got screwdrivers and pliers scattered about my room, and screws in a bag on my desk (at least thats where it was last seen!!) and some fans floating about, just modded my gamecube (ok so its not really a MOD) by sticking a fan on the intake port with a paperclip and a twisty-tie, runs MUCH cooler now!!
