How to organize shop drawers with dividers and Kaizen foam

There is no need to go on an Easter egg hunt every time you need a tool.
In this video, I will show you how to create easy drawer dividers, a 2 level system to maximize the drawer height, and how to utilize Kaizen foam inserts to customize your tool storage.

I’ve been cutting foam for tools for a few decades. This is the first time I’ve seen the heat gun used like that. Thanks for sharing.

Looks great
What material did you use for dividers?

[@budsworkshop]

Thanks! I used 1/4 MDF.

Interesting. I like the notches you use on the end pieces (eg, at T intersections). I was laying something out similar and was going to use dados, but cutting 1/8 into 1/4” material seems like a pain.

Yeah, dados in 1/4 inch would work but there is zero wiggle room. The notches give a bit more flexibility. Thanks for watching!

That looks like it’s going to be awesome to work with your tools by keeping them organized, clean and well protected. Tools are a big investment and when you know where they are that’s half the battle. 🤣

That's the plan!
