How much can you fit in a standard Maxpedition Pocket Organizer?

I have a Condor T&T pouch for my mobile tool kit (everything but a drill) that I use often but it about 50% too big to carry regularly back/forth to work:

This is not a survival or get home kit of any kind, just tools I regularly use.
I've been thinking about creating an auxiliary tool kit that is much smaller and would like to restrict myself to the regular Maxpedition EDC Pocket Organizer:

I think I can live without some tools but will most likely still want a Knipex 6" Cobra, 6" needle nose pliers, Allen and Torx bit set, oil, duct tape, sandpaper, marker, small tape measure, triangle file, and box cutter. Does anyone have a similar kit going and does the standard EDC pouch work for you?
 
The standard EDC pouch should work well for your needs. Great organizing pouches.

Thanks for the comparison. I waffled between the standard and fatty for a while but want to force myself to keep this kit slim...
 
Although my EDC bag tool pouch isn't as diverse as yours, I use a small canvas toolbag that I picked up at the hardware store. It zips down the front, and when full is about the size of a Monster energy drink. The nice thing about it, is that I can toss it in the watter bottle pouch on my work bag. I don't have a pic, but it kind of looks like this:

It holds my ratchet, stubby ratcheting screwdriver, bits, gator grip socket, mini tongue and groove pliers, lighter, box cutter, zip ties, electrical tape, shop rag, mini tape measurer, pencil, and flashlight... although sometimes I change out the tools depeding on what I tend to use more.

I use the exact maxpedition edc pouch you inquired about to keep some emergency items in the center console of our two SUVs. The kits are about as full as you can make them and still zip them shut. Each kit contains a Lumapower CR123 flashlight, iPhone charging cord with plug, backup stick charger for iPhone, apple earbuds, small nail file, band aids, some cash, and a Swiss Army knife with corkscrew (Spartan model). I an impressed with the quality and they hold enough stuff for what I wanted to accomplish. However, I don’t think (based on my experience) that you would be able to fit everything referenced in your first post. The pouch is simply not that big.
