Well, here’s an attempt..
First out; the handle and the narrow opening by itself makes it a challenge organising any sort of order in this box. Second; the height inside is far to low for carrying half of my tools standing (if you, like me, want to put a systainer on top, and indeed lay down the handle. This leaves even some pliers out of the question. I’m 2/3rds done. There will be minor changes, and they need to be modular.
The front part is meant to carry drills; C18 with 3.1Ah battery clears with a Millimeter, my 12V Makita’s with 2Ah batteries - a Millimeter to tall, must route off 2 Millimeters on a 4mm base..
Still, it can in this configuration carry 2-3 drills. If the drills are in, the handle must fold backwards..
Rearmost portion are made somewhat modular, the holder that carry screwdrivers and pliers rides on a pair of runners, so it can slide sideways or be lifted out totally. I’ll make 1-2 modules that can be lifted out easy as well, hopefully these can be used in the old toolbox as well. I’ve removed the lid to be able to make some sort of insert, but the goal has been to have access to the tools with the lid closed, so far so good.. but the handle needs moving getting good access..
I almost regret starting this, it’s too much work for very little. Still, it’s now close to being useful.
I’m excited to see others solutions, as this is a tricky one.
I’ll post some more pics when next (and final!) steps are done.

As far as Tanos TB availability is concerned, Makita sells it in teal.
