Default Carry/storage Bag for MD & Accessories?

I was thinking about getting some type of duffle or sports type bag to carry MD & accessories. My ACE 250 came with it's own carry bag which is good. I guess maybe the best thing would be to just carry ACE by itself inn "main" bag and get extra bag for the extra coil, lower stem, and whatever else. I just wouldn't want everything to bang around against each other.

Don't mean to turn something simple into complicated deal. Just curious about everyone's personal opinion.

Thanks Boobie. That system sounds great and I'm it's well proven. Excuse dumb question but what is "loupe"? I think I'm just a little dyslexic at the moment. D.T.'s from not being able to use MD right now.

Boobie, do you recommend a certain brand loupe? I am looking online and see so many different companies that make them... the other day I found what seems to be a flattened penny... when I was young I used to pass the time by placing pennies on the railroad tracks just to flatten them ... that is what the item that I found looks like, but I am unable to see, even with a magnifying glass, what it is exactly... there are a few marks on it that I may be able to verify if I had a good instrument to see it better. Thanks!
