Depends what kind of tools you want!!! Automotive? Household? Jewelry? I've found with most tool-kits you're better off buying the tools you need seperate, otherwise you wind up with loads you won't ever use.

And if you are going to use them regularily, always buy the best you can afford. Poor quality tools result in nothing but stripped bolts, ruined screws, and many, many bruised and battered knuckles.

Kelly you might want to look at multi-tools like the leatherman, I have one and comes in really hand for odd jobs

I use a flat fishing tackle box, about the size of a book. I drop tools in it as I acquire them. Don't need much, a screwdriver, allen keys, lens pen, fork lift, Cheshire.

Go over your scope and mount, find out exactly what tools you will need in order to tighten/loosen each bolt, and only pack those. No point having a 24mm spanner if all your kit uses 6mm!
