The tool bag includes a tool bag body including an open topped storage volume formed from a primary blank including a first sidewall panel and a second sidewall panel joined to opposite edges of a primary base panel, and a secondary blank including a third sidewall panel and a fourth sidewall panel joined to opposite edges of a secondary base panel. The primary base panel overlaps with the secondary base panel and a plurality of attachment panels attach adjacent sidewall panels. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A tool bag, comprising: a tool bag body comprising an open topped storage volume formed from: a primary blank comprising a first sidewall panel joined to a primary base panel along a first base hinge line and a second sidewall panel joined to an opposite edge of said primary base panel along a second base hinge line parallel to said first base hinge line, a secondary blank comprising a third sidewall panel joined to a secondary base panel along a third base hinge line and a fourth sidewall panel joined to an opposite edge of said secondary base panel along a fourth base hinge line parallel to said third base hinge line, and a plurality of attachment panels, each of said attachment panels joined to one of said sidewalls along a longitudinally extending attachment hinge line; wherein said primary base panel overlaps with said secondary base panel and said first and second base hinge lines are perpendicular to said third and fourth base hinge lines, and said plurality of attachment panels overlap with and attach to adjacent sidewall panels. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The tool bag according to claim 1, wherein said plurality of attachment panels comprise: a first attachment panel joined to said first sidewall panel along a first longitudinally extending attachment hinge line perpendicular said first base hinge line, a second attachment panel joined to said second sidewall panel along a second longitudinally extending attachment line perpendicular said second base hinge line, a third attachment panel joined to said third sidewall panel along a third longitudinally extending attachment line perpendicular said third base hinge line, and a fourth attachment panel joined to said fourth sidewall panel along a fourth longitudinally extending attachment line perpendicular said fourth base hinge line; wherein said first attachment panel overlaps with and is attached to said third sidewall panel, said third attachment panel overlaps with and is attached to said second sidewall panel, said second attachment panel overlaps with and is attached to said fourth sidewall panel, and said fourth attachment panel overlaps with and is attached to said first sidewall panel. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The tool bag according to claim 1, wherein said plurality of attachment panels comprise: a first attachment panel joined to said first sidewall panel along a first longitudinally extending attachment hinge line perpendicular said first base hinge line, a second attachment panel joined to said first sidewall panel along a second longitudinally extending attachment hinge line opposite and parallel said first longitudinally extending attachment hinge line, a third attachment panel joined to said second sidewall panel along a third longitudinally extending attachment hinge line perpendicular said second base hinge line, and a fourth attachment panel joined to said second sidewall panel along a fourth longitudinally extending attachment hinge line opposite and parallel said third longitudinally extending attachment hinge line; wherein each of said first attachment panel and said third attachment panel overlap with and attach to said third sidewall panel, and each of said second attachment panel and said fourth attachment panel overlap with and attach to said fourth sidewall panel. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The tool bag according to claim 1, wherein said plurality of attachment panels are permanently attached to said adjacent side panels. ### Claim 5 (depends on 1) The tool bag according to claim 1, wherein said primary and secondary base panels are substantially square and substantially a same size. ### Claim 6 (depends on 1) The tool bag according to claim 1, wherein each of said primary and secondary blanks further comprise inner and outer flexible layers and at least one rigid support member disposed between the inner and outer flexible layers. ### Claim 7 (depends on 6) The tool bag according to claim 6, wherein said inner and outer flexible layers are coupled along edges of each layer. ### Claim 8 (depends on 1) The tool bag according to claim 1, wherein each of said primary and secondary blanks further comprise inner and outer flexible layers and a plurality of rigid support members disposed between the inner and outer flexible layers, and said base hinge lines are positioned in gaps between adjacent rigid support members. ### Claim 9 (depends on 1) The tool bag according to claim 1, further comprising a handle attached to at least one of the sidewalls. ### Claim 10 (depends on 1) The tool bag according to claim 1, wherein at least one of the sidewalls further comprises a plurality of pockets. ### Claim 11 A tool bag, comprising: a tool bag body comprising an open topped storage volume formed from a primary blank, a secondary blank, and first, second, third and fourth attachment panels, said primary blank comprising a first sidewall panel joined to a primary base panel along a first base hinge line and a second sidewall panel joined to said primary base panel along a second base hinge line opposite and parallel said first base hinge line, and said secondary blank comprising a third sidewall panel joined to a second base panel along a third base hinge line, a fourth sidewall panel joined to said second base panel along a fourth base hinge line opposite and parallel said third base hinge line, wherein said primary base panel overlaps with said secondary base panel and said first and second base hinge lines are perpendicular to said third and fourth base hinge lines, and wherein: said first attachment panel attaches said first and third sidewall panels in an orientation perpendicular to said base panels, said second attachment panel attaches said first and fourth sidewall panels in an orientation perpendicular to said base panels, said third attachment panel attaches said second and third sidewall panels in an orientation perpendicular to said base panels, and said fourth attachment panel attaches said second and fourth sidewall panels in an orientation perpendicular to said base panels. ### Claim 12 (depends on 11) The tool bag according to claim 11, further comprising at least one tool receptacle attached to at least one of the sidewall panels. ### Claim 13 (depends on 12) The tool bag according to claim 12, wherein said at least one tool receptacle is attached to only one sidewall panel. ### Claim 14 (depends on 12) The tool bag according to claim 12, wherein said at least one tool receptacle is attached to opposing sidewall panels and extends across the tool bag body. ### Claim 15 (depends on 12) The tool bag according to claim 12, wherein each of said primary and secondary blanks further comprise inner and outer flexible layers and a rigid support member disposed between the inner and outer flexible layers and said tool receptacle is attached to said inner flexible layer on each opposing sidewall panel. ### Claim 16 (depends on 12) The tool bag according to claim 12, wherein said at least one tool receptacle is a removable tool receptacle. ### Claim 17 (depends on 14) The tool bag according to claim 14, wherein said at least one tool receptacle comprises receptacle walls formed by ethylene vinyl acetate. ### Claim 18 A method of assembling a tool bag, comprising: providing a primary blank comprising a first sidewall panel joined to a primary base panel along a first base hinge line and a second sidewall panel joined to said primary base panel along a second base hinge line opposite and parallel said first base hinge line; providing a secondary blank comprising a third sidewall panel joined to a secondary base panel along a third base hinge line, a fourth sidewall panel joined to said secondary base panel along a fourth base hinge line opposite and parallel said third base hinge line;
