Wall-O-Tools

Great organization! I need to do the same thing. Get everything out of drawers and cabinets and more easily accessible when I need them. I don’t have quite the collection of hand tools as you, but I’m getting there.
Great job and good design.

-- Gary; Marysville, MI...Involve your children in your projects as much as possible, the return is priceless.

Let me welcome you to LJs, Steve. That is an impressive hand tool collection and this picture speaks volumes about your organizational skills.

Thats just what I need. My tools are currently hanging on a generic pegboard. The metals hooks chronically fall out as I hang/remove the tools. I then have to crawl under my workbench to find the hook. Makes my blood pressure skyrocket. That said, I will shamelessly copy your design at the soonest opportunity. Of course, my tool collection is roughly 25% of what you have, so its shouldn’t take me too long :)

Copy away, Tedstor! That’s one of the reasons I wanted to get away from pegboard, plus I just didn’t like the look of it. Then you can add more modular sections as you collection grows!

I don’t know which I’m more impressed with…. the organization level or the tool collection!

I don’t know what I’d use that big saw for, but I’m positive I need one :) This is computer wallpaper stuff, for sure. It’s a pleasure to look at.

Thanks, everybody!

I use the big saw for resawing green logs (even though it’s a crosscut), as you can see here: http://www.closegrain.com/2010/03/processing-green-applewood.html.

The chisels make good sharpening practice!
