I know what you mean, I had the 'legs too short' syndrome years ago.

At the time , Ford Piano Supply was still in business and I got a small 
black case from them.
It looks similar to a clarinet case and I simply carry tuning tools, a few 
screw drivers
and regulating tools.

Pliers, ball peen hammer, repinning tools, ratchet w/ sockets and extension 
with slot and
cross bits (plates tightening), etc (everything else that goes into the 35 
lb case) are in the
hefty case which usually sits in the car until called for.

I need to get a new tuning case though because this one is breaking apart 
from the lightweight
construction of the plastic casing.

I never regretted opting for the smaller service case.

Don't leave home without it . . .
