BUILD: Hammer Rack
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 26 авг 2024
- I needed a place to keep all my hammers etc, but I had very little room. In the end I came up with this front pull design with spring loaded gates. The gates open and close automatically when you insert or remove a tool, and the spring keeps the gate in the position you left it so its more secure when closed and stays open when empty. This design also works for pretty much any hammer or mallet so long as the handle can fit in the space allowed for by the gate.
I didn't want to hang them on nails or pins because it would take up too much space horizontally and I couldn't use a lift out rack because i couldn't spare the space above the rack. I also didn't like the idea of having specific spaces for specific hammers.
Literally everything for this build came out of the scrap bin, hence all the random sizes and dissimilar materials I started with, but it was mostly 3/4 ply and a scrap of 2x6 for the bracket, the springs were made from a strip of maple.
Thanks fro watching,
Ray

I've seen a lot of people looking for measurements, including me. Here is what I came up with from watching his rulers:
Note: These may not be exact, but it should get you close
Depth of rack - 5"
Each pocket is 1.5" wide x 2.5" deep, 1.5" between pockets
The moving pieces appear to be about 2.25" x 2", notch would be 1.25" x 1.75" leaving 3/4" on each side. Pivot hole centered on the 2 legs
The pieces on the top are 5" x 1.5" to match the bottom
The spring fingers should be about 1/8" wide, about a saw kerf. Fingers are 3.75" long, notches in back are 1.25"
The spring fingers appear to be centered
The size of the pin shouldn't matter too much, I would use whatever nails I find in my shop
I didn't include any of the wall mount, that part is fairly straight forward
Hope this helps
I know I'm way late to the party but I just saw this on another channel and he credited you for the idea. Just figured I'd drop by and give it a like. Well done.
More fixings than needed to hold a roof on a house. Best example of over engineering witnessed in years. 👍
I have an entire drawer in my shop full of hammers, what a great solution for organizing them all. Thank you for the inspiration, well done!
Thanks :)
Unique idea that works flawlessly !! Congrats !! Just saw this after 7-1/2 years, and it is amazing !! Give yourself a pat on the back Sir !
Pretty sure I've never seen anything like this before. Very clever design.
Joshua Luther Thank you! This was the only way i could think to make it generic enough to work any hammer and still pull out the front so it had a small foot print on the wall.
Cool hammer rack man! I need one.
Thanks Steve!
Great idea, now to come up with some way for them to put their self in the rack. Nice video.
This is a fantastic! I love the slight overbuilding. LOL
Nice! I only have 1 hammer and 1 rubber mallet, so this might be overkill for me, hah!
I watched this video over a year ago and its still possibly my favourite makers vid. Keep it up man!
Adam Tobin thanks man! Am actually considering changes and doing a v2 now that I’ve had it awhile
TabLeft Workshop - Sweet man! If you can improve that i will be seriously impressed. I need to make me one.
Excellent work. Result looks tidy; it’s simple to use and robust.
This is the best storage system I’ve seen and I watch a lot of videos. Great ideas. You are very talented.😊
I watched this video 5 times, and then built one last night. I've been trying to think about what to do with my hammers, and this solution is perfect. Thank you for the video and inspiration!
Awesome!
Cool factor off the charts. Thanks for taking the time to post.
Bravo!
Bravo……….. Must be Karma, I have been looking for a way to store my hammers in my shop………. Thank you
Very nice engineering in the latches. And great way to keep the hammers secure.

If there is a more complicated way of hanging a hammer up...I'm yet to see it. Very very....very clever.
+David Handley LOL, Yeah this is certainly not the most simple solution, but it was the only solution I should think of that met my requirements. Thanks for watching!
I hang mine on screws
Very nice, very useful.
Clever.

👍👍👍
Brilliant!

That was cool as hell. Pocket Holes, a French Curve, IPA and Shock Top... Subscribe!
Thanks!
Nice Work
+DIY Creators Thanks!
that was great. now try to make a revolving fixture so the hammer holder wont need to be opened by yourself but by inertia forces of the tool going in
That is fantastic.
Jeremy McMahan Thanks!
Fantastic, congratulation.
Pretty awesome stuff I'm sure this could work with other things.
Tom Howbridge yeah I have heard some pretty good suggestions so far for turning tools, broomsticks, hanging cables, etc
Awesome!
Thanks!
Great idea, excellent video! Subbed!
+Bull City Woodworks thank you!
Not sure you have enough hardware in there.... but all in all, its a clever design. nice work
