This is great. Please consider potential fire protection when keeping things powered all the time though. Even if that just means removing all power at night. I suffered a fire that destroyed my workshop and business from one cable left powered overnight. I'm sure it will be fine, but it doesn't do any harm to consider these things before they happen!
Good to consider.
Yes, please - make sure that you are fire safe!
Obviously, also watch that things don't get too hot in an enclosed drawer. Many drawers had holes but might need some ventilation holes in the case or, worst case, a small case fan for cooling.
all shops should be equipped not only all compulsory fuses, but also thermo fuses - a few euro cent per piece and you sleep better...
saw a tv docu about the full trottle saloon , that was build every year and added ontoo for the sturgis event the whole thing burned to the ground due to one extention cord

I think this is how "Q" from 007 started: "I can build anything, I just need a better system"...Utility is a HUGE thing. My first show was our two car garage. Wife's rule: You can have WHATEVER TOOLS YOU WANT...as long as BOTH cars fit in the garage at night. So everything was on wheels, piano hinges, pulleys, whatever. 15-20 min of setting up the tools to start, work and 15-20 min to change or shut down/cleanup. The overhead was killing my hobby! New shop keeps it all ready to go (at the sacrifice of portability which your super-spy cases handily fix!) I am so happy for you! Every time you use your "family" of tools, you will smile even more. Just Awesome!
There is a saying "A place for everything, and everything in its place" Great Job!
I love how ridiculously happy you are with your new system, and I’m sure your shop heaved a big sigh of relief to be so clean and organized.🐝🤗❤️
Explanatory, is the correct word with perfect pronunciation. Your English is amazing, Laura.
Better than a lot of English speakers, that's for sure!
Dear Laura,
What you are doing, I did a few years ago when I retired. You are going to LOVE this way of working! I built my own cart/case storage units. For example, I have a cart just for "things that drill." It has all of my bits, chargers for my cordless drills, drills themselves, and there is a drill press on the top. It can go anywhere and plug in anywhere and I can also take it outside. I love my shop now! Now, ANYTHING that is used for drilling can be found in that cart only. There are other carts that work the same way, e.g. "things that saw." Your "family" concept is the way to go!
Best Wishes,
Tom K.
I have no idea how I even found your channel but I am SO glad I did! Please don't take this the wrong way - but you are absolutely adorable! I realize most grown women don't want to be seen as "adorable", but I don't know how else to describe you.
I started with the video of the new house, and I'm now watching the espionage boxes... and I just love you! The joy you find in the simplest, silliest things makes me smile, and Lord knows we could all use a few smiles lately. You seem to be extremely creative which I highly value and appreciate, and I can't wait to watch you bring both the house and the workshop back to life so that they work for you.
Fantastic job on revamping these cabinets - You think the way I do. We need it to work, and work well, but we also need it to be easily adaptable. There's no point in spending more time reorganizing than actually "being creative", or actually working when we need to lol.
Adorable! 🤣
*** ETA- Girl, EVERYONE that has a use for this system is going to want it. Please, PLEASE, Make sure they are locked up with a good alarm system on the building - or a big dog, whichever works for you - cuz I know I think it's amazing and I don't even really have any use for it 🤣. Although believe you me, as a crafter and small time DIYer, I would certainly put it to work should it happen to fall into my lap. How lucky are you? This is awesome!
Modular, repairable, and upgradeable is the mantra. Now you've added mobile and made an amazing system. So cool Laura. Great use of a unique find.
These storage boxes are so perfect! Good wheels and ability to rearrange the stack is very cool! Sharp looking and uniform as well 🌟💪🏻👍👏🏻
What you have done with the storage containers is just brilliant. Really well thought out and perfectly implemented. I like the way you have created a system for organising everything by categories. Pretty damn impressive.
I'm not sure I've ever seen someone so happy! Such an amazing makeover to the shop, it's obviously going to be more functional, and even if it didn't, just the joy it brings you, the creativity, the happiness of being in a well set up space, it would all be worth it just for that. Can't wait to see more of it and how you grow it over time!
Just love the way you design and organise your workshop…. Think this is the BEST critique so far and now newest element…. Mobility…. That’s magnificent👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼😎🇦🇺
Laura, du bist einfach so sausymphatisch. Es ist so schön zu sehen, wie du dich über das neue System freust!!
I love how altruistic you are, the fact that you view organizing your shop as a favor to the space combined with that bench you repaired, just one of the many reasons I’m always so excited to see what your next video is about. Can’t wait to see you start working with this new system!
Incredibly efficient and so cool! Love the powered stations in the drawers, that's an absolute dream. Your shop is becoming like something out of a documentary of a master maker, can't wait to see more!
The storage we all dream of!
I love the shallow drawers! Great for keeping things easy to find and not over stuffing them!
You have created the shop of my dreams. True, we build different things, but the organization!!! It gave me chills of excitement! Your joy brings me joy and your projects inspire my own! So happy to have found your channel! Also, I love hearing all the German language spoken!
You hit gold buying storage like that it will last you a lifetime and it looks awesome.Congrats you deserve to have nice things
WOW! So cool! My mind is still blown by this find. This is the holy grail for a mobile shop of many kinds.
Any time I hear you speak in German I know its going to be a great video. Your excitement and joy make this so much better!
This is easily the coolest shop storage on the planet. the built in power and mobility is my favorite element.
for your velcro backed sanding discs, to make them easier to align, have the pads stacked using 3 or 4 dowels. this way when you place the sander down on top to pick up next one the vent holes line up perfectly
LOOOOOOVE IT!!!! This should be a system you can buy of the shelf. I want this for my workshop! I need this!!
I’m glad you were able to repurpose a very specific item into something that is actually very functional for you. Good work.
Looks awesome. Best part is how happy and excited you are. Admit I'm a little sad the old labels are gone. They were cool. lol
So jealous of those cases. Super useful and downright beautiful!
Would be cool to integrate the front door panels that you removed for the tools you hang on the walls. That way if you need to take those along you unhook the panel from the wall, connect to the front of a box, close it up and take it as well!
Looking forward to seeing you use these long into the future!
Einfach nur sooooooooooooooooooo Mega! Auf-Rollen, die Optik, die Verarbeitung, die Story, der Foodprint Ansatz, Strom..... Krass.
You are an inspirational international living-treasure. IILT. That's you, Ms. Kampf!
Awesome! I love the drawers and the built in power. I know Adam Savage says that it is where tools go to die, but it is just nice not having to hang everything.
Loved it. One idea I’ve adopted is this scenario: I know I have a seldom used tool but can’t remember where I put it. I go to the place I think it should be but it’s not there. I eventually find it stored elsewhere. I use the tool then put it back in the first place I looked for it in my search. Now it’s where it belongs.
That empathy with the space… just love it. And the boxes are awesome.
I'm not an organized person in day to day life and gotten worse since my lower leg amputation. But in the tools department (due to my career...machinist) everything is cleaned and put away EVERY night. Time is money so to speak. Next time I move I'm organizing into 3 different tool chests (minimum) that are color coded. Red is SAE, Blue is Metric, Yellow is precision... Then I'll have seperate boxes in the welding area, soldering/wiring, machine shop, carpentry, etc.
Think I might actually kill for the system you have, but unless someone was harming my family its not worth the time. Congratulations on the incredible purchase Laura.
The way you described your old system, it's hard to believe you've been so creative and productive with it! 😅 Love the new system!!! Congrats on the big change ♥
The old system was “creative” 🤪
The most and largest smiles on RUclips.😊😁😃
It's good to see somebody getting so much pleasure from their "work".
Those boxes are an amazing find and incredible tool storage.
Great use of a very good find.
Brilliant! the greatest frustration for me is preparing each tool for work, and you are all set. Brava!
When our shop is clean and well organized, our soul is too 🙏🏻
You are a Legend, Laura! The epitome of German efficiency/joy in organisation!
Hands down. The coolest shop. Ever.
This is the content I live for. You've done an unbelievable job! (Don't tell Adam, but I think you're system is better.)
I am listening to this video while organizing my tools and yes, this is an important job that just have to be done.
I absolutely love your delight in these boxes. Not surprised, they are such a wonderful and exciting find. Well chosen storage leads to more comfortable making. I know you know this. It is so good to be able to put your hand out knowing the tool you need is just there. Lets the creativity flow.
Oh my god! Laura! i mean WOW!, fitment for lowest common denominator! YES!!! Grouping by materials application YES!!! And they're on wheels! YES!!! you have created the holy trinity and a bench mark for how truly good a shop can be designed. Congratulations on doing the impossible AND sharing what will inspire and dare i say improve the lives of makers everywhere, a sincere thankyou! Bravo Laura!!!! Bravo !!!!!!!!!!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Seeing you sat in the middle of your storage systems with a huge smile on your face is fantastic. It's great to see you in your happy place, just lovely.
SUCH A GREAT ARTIST. I AGREE WITH YOU ABOUT ORGANIZING THE SHOP. I HATE IT WHEN IT TAKES ME TO LONG TO FIND SOMETHING I NEED. TIME IS MONEY. BEING ORGANIZED CUTS DOWN THAT "FIND-TIME". LOOKING FORWARD TO YOUR NEXT ARTISTIC PROJECT. FROM THE STATES AND 70YRS OLD BIKERMAMMA. BEST OF LUCK.
I hope you kept the cooler box. Nothing is more important in a shop than to have a handy place for a cold drink.
I agree on this, configurability is the key to creative businesses and people
That's the BIGGEST smile I've ever seen on her face! Oh the JOY.
I'm 65 and a DIY everything. I am jealous of your storage system.... I want one❣️❣️❣️❣️
Absolute genius!!! I so admire your mind, your brilliance, heart and beauty. You are a complete delight and wonder. ,💞
You are a lucky genius..Lucky for such a find..and genius for knowing how to utilize them. The thing about them always having a power.. It would give so much space for creativity.
It’s so cool to see how happy it makes you 😀
Ich bin soooooo neidisch. Das mit dem Strom, den Akkuladegeräten, der Verteilung, der Sauberkeit ist sooooooooooo befriedigend zu sehen. Will ich auch!

Das ist wirklich ein mega-geniales Aufbewahrunssystem !!!
Meine Hobbywerkstatt ist winzig, deshalb habe ich schon seit über 10 Jahren zwei große Schubladenschränke für Handwerkzeuge um viele Kleinteile übersichtlich zu lagern. Deine Schubladenboxen sind dagegen natürlich viel variabler und sogar transportabel und kombinierbar.
Genial ist die Idee das man auch manche Geräte in der Schublade betreiben kann und nicht jedesmal herausnehmen muss.
ohhh jaa, darum beneide ich dich wirklich, ich bin oft unterwegs und muss ständig Werkzeug packen. da geht so viel Zeit drauf und dann fehlt doch wieder etwas. ich hätte die cases auch sofort gekauft 😊😊 hammer
So excited you spoke German! Wunderbar!
What a dream setup. Wow.
This warms my heart!
Respect for inanimate objects... YES! 🎉
Organizing & systems also settles our busy minds.
Those cases are most excellent!🤗
Your now have the most awesome shop in the world! Beautiful.
Love the way your mind works, glad to know I'm not the only analytical, methodical nut!
This system is you ! Smart and creative.
Awesome...nothing better than a good shop improvement! So nice...
Taking care of your shop is also (and quite obviously from your grin) really good selfcare :)
This is THE best video on storage - I love your thinking.
Die Boxen sind wirklich spitze!
Und das zu dem Preis.
Ich hab grad was kleineres, aber ein Ähnliches Projekt verwirklicht.
Ich hab eine mobile Werkbank aus einer Gitterbox Palette gebaut.
Mit Werkzeug Wand, Druckluft und vielen aufhänge und verstau Möglichkeiten.
Ist auch ein Schraubstock drauf.
Funktioniert zusammen mit meinem Werkzeugwagen (das ist aber nur so ein kleines Billig Teil, das ich irgendwann auch mal ersetzen muss).
Die beiden Dinge stehen an meiner Hebebühne und sind halt mobile und dadurch super flexible.
Ich mag solche auf meine Bedürfnisse zugeschnitten Lösungen.
Your smile says so much!
Cool futuristic storage system! really like it... you probably won't see this comment but as a guy that has done industrial controls wiring it's not a good idea to tin your wires like that with solder and then put it into the screw terminals. it's strictly forbidden because of fire risks and shock hazards. the idea is that you have two metals that have different melting points and expansion rates in a physical connection and they can, over time as the current heats up the wire, cause the connection to degrade and become a fire risk. it's actually a very similar idea to why the backstab connections on electrical outlets cause fires at an elevated rate. bad connection increases resistance which increases the heat at that point. anyhoo be safe and keep rocking out. (also, if you want to be super duper industrial controls level you can go with ferrules that you crimp on to those wires and they will withstand being moved around from terminal to terminal many times without degrading.
The shop is looking wundershoen. This does seem 100% better than those Festool drawer systems. Glad to see it's making joy for you!
Listening to you squeee over the storage cases just warms my heart.
Завидую хорошей белой завистью :))
I'm not sure how I missed this one Laura but WOW! I'm franticly searching for "James Bond Spy Cases" on ebay! Obviously no luck but such a cool 2nd life for those crates in your shop. I whole-heartedly agree about taking the time to make working in your shop efficient and enjoyable. Keep up the awesome work!
Looks Great, and so functional. In my new atelier space. I decided every Friday For 2 hours will do shop improvements. I see the work space as my living room/diningroom. I eat .rest.work. Having good time there. So the space needs to look and feel good, it has to be a space where I like to be and bring friends over.. my mindset of a good workshop
I doubt that I’d ever have a workshop that needs some sort of tool organising system, but listening to how you decided to organise your tools to fully utilise these crazy spy boxes brings me joy! Keep doing what you’re doing.
Great system Laura. Remember that mobility is also the friend of the thief or burglar too. Keep safe.
Good thing to remind people. Hidden GPS tags people, keep those in mind. I was thinking the same thing, ARE WE too paranoid... nah!!
Ok, late to the party, but I have to agree with you. This is the ultimate tool storage system: durable, flexible, scalable, and mobile. If I had one thing that I would change were I engineering it from scratch, it would be to minimize the wasted space between the layers, as I hate wasted space. That said, I wouldn't have turned them down for this package of stuff. And you even have a fridge in your shop now!
I can't describe how much I like this!
Like a custom-made workshop. What a bonanza of storage system. This is a huge game changer for all workshop builders even if they don’t luck out with a purchase of the cases. You are the perfect one to have bought those cases!!! Wow!🦌💌🙏
Storage and organization is important too. Too many of us just try to find an immediate, quick solution for these one or two things. Too many people to do not take the time to find a solution for EVERYTHING. Congratulations on doing that. This too is vital work. And the person who appreciates it the most is you. That is also important. Thanks, and now I will go into my shop and try to tackle a corner. It is not everything but it is a start.
Woooow! I cannot begin to describe how cool that is! And I love love love your energy!
That's a thing of beauty. It's time for me to get a new rollaway. but yours is just beautiful. I commented before I finished watching. OMG! Power and portability too. That is awesome. You will get so much use out of that. Its going to be such a pleasure to grab a fully charged tool. That's cool!
New system is awesome, but it's only scalable if you can/need to acquire more metal units to accommodate new tools, otherwise you're back to where you began. One day the perfect system will come from your imagination and your skills. Thanks for sharing. Stay safe and keep up the good work.
Fantastic organization!... I dont have anything like you do,, but I sure could use a large tool case to organize everything together. Being more functional makes the work more functional/easy.
Dear Laura,
I've been doing the same with simple Bosch L-Boxxes. The advantage is that they're not super heavy and bulky and I can also carry them over stairs.
The only problem I have, and I guess you will experience it as well if you go mobile, is that you always need to have a "base stack" of boxes with you.
Bringing your angle grinder + abrasives onsite is the one thing, but you will always need the box with your pliers, screwdrivers, measurement tools etc. with you.
It's not a bad thing, but just something to consider.
I always like to see repurposing of items. I just bought 2 surplus hospital dispensing storage racks, (Pyxis supply cabinets 317). I appreciate your videos and tips and tricks! Thanks again Tim from Kentucky
Wow ,I'm speechless , follow love whit you and your shop!
Your enthusiasm as so contagious. I find myself sitting here with the biggest of smiles. Thank You!
God I'm jealous. What a fantastic purchase those boxes were and then you put them to use expertly!
Really super beautiful, you won't find it a second time
What a good and well-equipped workshop you have👍😊💕
I'm honestly envious. I'm having a similar dilemma in my current job. I service elevators in Australia. I just received a new company van that's twice the size of what I have had in the past. I also just got a few Wera tool kits that I'm absolutely loving, but I have a more tool bags than my wife has handbags. I need to cut down on what I'm having to carry around, so I'm pulling my hair out trying to cut down on what I need & don't need. What you have done here looks so awesome. 👌👌👍👍
Thank you for this great video! I've read through a lot of these comments, and I realize we all have something in common. We all have mild Obsessive Compulsive syndrome, and we all enjoy the satisfaction of a well-organized and well thought-out set-up. I think we're all hugely jealous of you, Laura!
Oh, I'm so jealous and happy for you at the same time!
You are like a kid on Christmas Day I love It.Wish i had such a place to work out of,GREAT PURCHASE
Great set up, and great thought process. I've just relocated to a new shop and I may use some of these concepts - but without the espionage equipment boxes...
Thumbs up and thanks for posting!
This looks like a dream come true ❤️ I fell in love with flight cases and mobile power management more and more the deeper i went into designing and building my own modular synth setup.
P.S
I just wanted to thank u for hanging that pride flag❤️ i dunno how long its been there but i know i was low key waiting on it very patiently 😸
The utility of those boxes made me cry literally! Especially the soldering station. Awesome setup Laura! I hope you can reverse engineer one of the cases in the future, if u have any left. It will be a really awesome lesson in engineering in my opinion.
That's some serious flexibility and future-proofing.
Plywood tops would make them as workbenches too.
I love your enthousiastic energy 🥰
