1. A nesting tool tray set receiving and holding a plurality of arrays of mechanics tools during use, comprising:
an open first tray receiving and holding a first array of mechanics tools, the first tray comprising a first flexible base and a plurality of first compartments formed by first flexible dividing walls extending upwardly from the first base, the first compartments receive and hold the first array of mechanics tools, the first base and first dividing walls:
are of sufficient flexibility to enable the base of the first tray to assume the contour of the surface on which the first tray is set while holding the first array of mechanics tools; and
are of sufficient structural integrity to receive and hold the first array of mechanics tools;
an open second tray of a size smaller than the first tray and receiving and holding a second array of mechanics tools, the second tray comprising a second flexible base and a plurality of second compartments formed by second flexible dividing walls extending upwardly from the second base, the second compartments receive and hold the second array of mechanics tools, the second base and second dividing walls:
are of sufficient flexibility to enable the base of the second tray to assume the contour of the surface on which the second tray is set while holding the second array of mechanics tools; and
are of sufficient structural integrity to receive and hold the second array of mechanics tools;
an open third tray of a size smaller than the second tray to receive and hold a third array of mechanics tools, the third tray comprising a third flexible base and a plurality of third compartments formed by third flexible dividing walls extending upwardly from the third base, the third compartments receive and hold the third array of mechanics tools, the third base and third dividing walls:
are of sufficient flexibility to enable the base of the third tray to assume the contour of the surface on which the third tray is set while holding the third array of mechanics tools; and
are of sufficient structural integrity to receive and hold the third array of mechanics tools;
wherein one of the first compartments closely receives therein the entire second tray;
wherein one of the second compartments closely receives therein the entire third tray;
wherein the second compartment closely receives therein the third tray is constructed of a second length extending substantially the entire length of the second tray, with the second length closely corresponding to the length of the third tray;
wherein at least one of the third compartments extending the length of the third tray to receive and hold the third array of mechanic's tools selected from the group consisting of wrenches, plyers, screw drivers, and flashlights; and
wherein the first compartment that closely receives the entire second tray therein is centrally located on the first tray.
