Car key on Prometheus Kappa QR, SAK Rambler, Eagletac D25A Clicky (Nichia), Keysmart Ti. The swivels are Spro.
Nice scales.  Ebony?  Did you make them yourself?

I cannot get my key chains on a diet.  How the heck do you all get your keychains so darn tidy?

I have to carry several keys so I have one for that and one for my home and vehicle.  I keep my manager and LM#5 on my other keychain with a Bic mini and several stupid keys. 

My vehicle keys has the fob, key, button light, camper top and yakima rack keys, and house key. 

I strongly dislike my key set up but I need those keys.

I remember those days well  :facepalm:

At one point I had to carry all these at any time, in case the phone rang and I had to respond to something:
House keys (2). brother's house keys (2), parents house keys (2), car keys (2), boat keys (4), boatyard keys (6), shed keys (4) and work keys (6). I'm sure there were others on there too. Then there were assorted tools and a res-q-me, and floatation devices, and various other tedious peripherals :dwts:

There are a few things to consider, the first is to make sure the keys are aligned along the same axis. Often people add more and more rings to their keys and they end up tangling and taking up a lot of extra space. I have never carried many keys but this still makes a difference. Another in to group them well, basically longer/larger keys in the middle and smaller to the sides as far as possible (less air between them). A good grouping can also help keep track of keys, one of my keyrings has two almost identical keys for different things but since I put them on opposite side of each other next to a more distinctive key for the same general area/purpose I can still keep them apart easily.

As it stands I have three different rings for different places but I have yet to find a nice way of attaching either of the two smaller, more specific, rings to my main keys temporarily. All solutions I see seem to mess up my first rule regarding axes.

Make sense.  I'm going to play with my set up again.  I have taken off anything that isn't used.  I use one main ring but haven't tried to put the larger/onger key in the center with smaller ones outside.

Sigh. 

Ok lemme rethink this again. 

Car key, fob, yakima rack key, camper top key.........   Sigh.....

Most of the times I only carry the car's keys. But when I carry the full set, I either use my hands or my bag.

This thing? Could you be more specific? I would really like to know what that thing is. You know, for research purposes. Not to buy it or anything like that...  :whistle:

EDIT: Never mind, found it. Man, those things are not cheap... :D
