An improved tool container a corner-less exterior adjacent a craftsman to minimize trauma when carried and to provide better access to objects therein than convention designs. In the preferred embodiment, the tool container comprises a substantially cylindrical body having an axial length, opposing first and second ends, and an interior region for tools, couplings, and assorted workpieces. The body includes at least one divider disposed between the first and second ends. Accesses are disposed along the cylindrical body on either side of the divider(s) and provide access to divided portions of the interior region of the tool container. End caps are disposed proximate to the first and second ends of the cylindrical body. A flattened portion can be provided in the cylindrical body to prevent rolling when placed on the ground or other rest surface. A method for manufacturing such a tool container is also disclosed in which a substantially cylindrical tube is provided, accesses are formed in a side wall of the tube and dividers are affixed between the accesses. Ends of the tube are capped with end caps. Optionally, a portion of the side wall is flattened during manufacturing. Also disclosed is an arrangement of tool containers within a vehicle.
