Shop Organization - Part 2: Tool Storage
HTML-код

- This video is the second video around Shop Organization focused on Tool Storage and how I have chosen to store my tools in a small shop. My goal is to help you think outside the box to make the most of your space, especially if you are in a small shop.

Your lack of storage space has put you in a unique position to be able to help the rest of us store tools more efficiently. Thanks for the work!
I like the "I don't want to waste your time with French cleats". Much appreciated!
Very nice setup. Thank you for the video. I’m working on my garage space at the moment. This offered me many ideas. I share my garage space (sharing is caring; so I’ve heard said) and I have to make it work. This video helps. Thanks
Cracking videos about optimizing work space. Thank you.
This has come in very handy as I'm about to renovate my workshop now the leaking roof has been replaced.
You know how to make a video. Concise to the point and easy to listen to. Keep up the good work. You are on track to be a RUclips star.
Thanks! I appreciate it!! Glad you enjoyed it!
Now that is an amazingly organized shop. Thanks for sharing.
Great organization .. I'm in process of building a 16x20 shop as I got pushed out of my shop in the basement ( which probably is a good thing really because it was only 11x10 room) ..this gives me ideas for storage and organization.👍
Solid thought process on the horizontal clamp storage. I've have deep parallel clamp storage but didn't really think the same way about F clamps. This really reinforced that. Also, brilliant work making everything magnetic to utilize all of those magnetic strips. Excellent work.
Thank you so much! Some day I’ll consolidate some of the f clamps and upgrade to some parallel ones. Glad you enjoyed it!
Great video and amazing storage. Love how you have the magnetic strips on movable french cleat. Amazing
Thank you. I appreciate it!
You are a genius! I love these storage solutions. Not too difficult to make, don't take up any more room than absolutely necessary, and fast, convenient too grab and put back away. You just earned a new sub, can't wait to dive into more of your videos! Thankyou.
Thanks, I appreciate it!
Really enjoying your videos. Stumbling across your channel is perfect timing for me since I'm just starting to reclaim my old shop that had become so cluttered I never used it for projects anymore. Your unassuming manor and application of logical thought to approach these issues, that can feel insurmountable are very appreciated! I'll definitely be applying many of your ideas to my rediscovered shop! Thanks again for this excellent content!
Thank you for the kind words, greatly appreciated! Glad you are enjoying them.
Really appreciate the pragmatic no nonsense approach you bring to all of your projects👍 No fluff, logical & concise. Appreciate you sharing with all of us on RUclips.
Thank you! Appreciate that!
You sir. Speak to my heart. So many of your ideas here will be implemented in my shop! Thank you.
That’s great to hear! Glad you enjoyed it!
I got a warm fuzzy seeing all those hand tools on the magnet strips. What a nice, clean, organized way to keep them. 👍🏻
Thank you!
This is easily the best shop organization video I’ve seen. I am just getting started in my new house with a 20x20 shop. So I will be borrowing your ideas! Thanks a million!
Thank you!! I really appreciate that!!!
I'm currently in the process of getting my shop started. Your video is simply beautiful and inspiring. Provides the right ideas to get things "right" the first time - and with style :) Thanks a lot for sharing!
Thank you! I appreciate that!
The power tool box on french cleats is genius!
Agreed- simple yet very elegant design. I was planning to do individual tool holders; this might have just saved me a bunch of time and effort.
@@neilphillips3193 Same here. Had already created a few holders but now am rethinking that
Most I had seen had always been individual, and granted it’s easier to move individual holders around than that massive thing, but the point is to rearrange individual tools, not holders. So this allows a lot of that.
One piece of advice, use your miter saw to cut the grooves, not table saw. Too long of a board to use miter gauge, most miter saws have a depth stop. Made it really simple.
Another excellent video, many thanks for sharing your ideas. In your first video you mention how organisation isn’t something to show off but seeing all of these items impeccably organised is very satisfying. 👌
Haha thank you! I think that as well, but not everyone does.
These videos are great. My “workshop” is a small closet with nails/tools everywhere. I used these organization principles to come up with something that works for me.
Great to hear! Thank you! Always love to hear the feedback.
This series is right on time. I am in process of trying to reorganize my garage. I like your logical approach to planning out storage solutions. Look forward to seeing how you manage scrap wood as mine is all over the garage in random piles.
Thank you! Glad you are enjoying it.
Nice work with the dust collection. I did the same Wilkerson thein baffle mod to the same central machines DC unit, and did the same external venting. Works great, and surprisingly little dust actually gets outside.
Awesome video. I really like how well thought out this plan is.
Thank you! Yeah, it’s worked great for me so far.
Lots of great ideas. I like that you display the finished products without useless filler like showing how to cut plywood and screw and glue a joint. We can figure that out for ourselves. I definitely will finally try the magnets, and also I am inspired to attach some French cleat cubbies to my pegboard.
Thanks! I do that in build videos, but this wasn’t one of those so I wanted to spend more time on the why vs the how.
Love your approach. I’ve been watching a lot of these shop organization videos and like your simple and efficient solutions. Too many people fall into the trap of bespoke solutions for every tool. You hit the right balance.
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!
Best storage solutions I've seen, clamps and the hand held power tools, 10 out 10.
Thank you!
I watch workshop organization video for some time as I'm looking for inspiration for my own shop. Your video is the best thing I found so far! The way of organization is nothing but impressive 👌
Thank you so much! I appreciate it.
Great sensible approach to maximizing wall space. Thank you for that, appreciate your strong work.
Thank you!
Fantastic storage solutions! I've watched a lot of videos as I try to organise my shop, but I think I'll be borrowing most the ideas from you! Many thanks!
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed them!
In love with the saw blade and dado stack holder!!! A lot better than just hanging them on a nail.
We’ve all been there!
This brings back some memories! I ran my furniture making business out of a one car garage back in the late 80's and 90's. I had stuff mounted everywhere! I had a panel saw that took up an entire wall, and even had pegboard behind that! I built some massive furniture in there, but it was definitely a dance 😉The very first iteration was an unheated 2-car that I had to share with a car so I feel your pain. Everything on wheels and stowed away when not needed! I and finally getting my dream shop now, but it's been many years!
That’s awesome! Mobile is the way to go with small spaces for sure!
This is the best garage storage, workbench video. Thanks for making and sharing. I'm probably going to watch it several times.
Thank you so much!!! I appreciate that!
I love your creativeness in utilizing every inch of available space, especially since the vast majority of us will never have a full size dedicated shop! Lots of great ideas with a good combination of creativity and practicality. Thanks. This earned a subscription from me.
Thank you so much!
Great video, thank you. I just finished making a smaller workbench and I picked up some great ideas.
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it.
I was completely on the fence regarding french cleats yet in total agreement about peg boards. Now I'm convinced the cleat system is the way to go. The grab-n-go mag tool storage is perfection.
Thank you! Greatly appreciate that, let me know how it turns out for you!
I love pegboard. Love it. Much smaller location unit, and fully flexible in two dimensions. You get more in a smaller space, so they are closed. Hand tools only! - but you can group by use, not size.
For bigger stuff, you need ply (or OSB) walls. Putting a couple of screws in is fast, and you save all the time making cleats. Moving is simple, and you can locate them more accurately (not limited by cleat spacing). Totally agree with cubbies (moving divider shelves).
Also consider duplication- I keep three sets of most popular drill sizes, one by the lathe, one by the drill press, and one by the hand drills. Saves a lot of walking and takes very little space.
Genius! I watched this video with My son for school. Amazing editing as well.
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed it!
Sir,, You organized your tools more than my life 👍🏻
Hahaha
Color coding your box/open ended wrenches is genius!
I’d love to take credit, but they came that way haha.
I like the idea of the magnets for the hand tools. I think I'll be getting rid of a tool box and freeing up some space in the shop.
I've met my match... Thankfully.
I've been known to be a bit CDO.,
OCD alphabetically correct.
I love your forward thinking, planning and execution.
No details over looked.
Taking the extra time to go beyond "todays thinking" saves you a ton of time for the tomorrow's to come.
( I just made that up, feel free to use it) lol.
Again thank you for saving me a TON of brain cells.
Job well done! 👍
Thank you so much! Always appreciate someone else who goes through a similar thought process! Glad I could help!
Love the shop ! Thank you for the vid, about to embark on a hobby metal workshop, late fathers Workshop, declutter and reorganise, as its become a little bit of a catch all of late. And trying to attack small projects at the moment is a bit of a frustration. Having spent most of my life in the Hospitality trade so stealing and living the magnetic Knife rack as the perfect tool holder! Thanks for all the inspiration. Happy working in your most organised Workshop..
Thank you! Only thing I’d be careful with is using the magnet holders for tools used with metal, the magnets will pick up all those shards and be a pain to get them off. Other than that I absolutely love them!
That's a huge amount of really useful, not to say inspiring, information in one well-presented video. Thank you!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it.
Thanks for sharing. The best shop org video I've seen. Well executed, well explained including the rare instances of what not to do.
Thank you! I always like including the mistakes I’ve made, so hopefully others don’t make them as well.
Thanks for sharing. I'm starting to plan my first shop build. .. but I'm in a small room. 10x 15 with a large closet so I really need to maximize space.
I really like your magnetic French cleats modules for each like type tools; wrenches etc.
Thanks!
"I hate pegboard!"
Instantly subscribed!
Haha thank you! It’s the worst!
I got some great ideas for my tiny shop. Thanks! I appreciate that you explain your decisions and priorities.
You got a new subscriber!
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!
Keep it up. I'm continuing to enjoy all of your videos and these in particular are very useful as my workshop is still in that newly finished "everything is everywhere" state. I had fallen into the trap of making lots of custom holders for lots of tools and then you showed me I was a moron and used the big bar magnets. I managed to get 8x 45cm (18") ones for about £23 that will more than suffice for most of my steely tools.
Thank you! That’s awesome!! Glad to hear it.
Hello from the UK, just wanted to say great couple of videos really going to help me set up my new work shop 👍
Thank you so much, I appreciate that!
Great plans; clear, specific, simple and proven. Nice job, thanks!
Thank you!
Thanks for your excellent videos on setting up your work space. I am new to woodworking and I am in the process of setting up my garage so these videos will be very helpful!
Thanks! Glad you are enjoying them!
Space is always a problem in a garage. Your ideas are super helpful. Thanks.
Thank you, appreciate the kind words!
Such great organizations! Can’t wait to see the next one! I plan to take lots of your ideas to build mine
Thanks! Look forward to getting out to everyone.
I love how rigorous your approach is!
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!
Cool...very, very cool. Especially love the magnet wall. The vertical chrome socket is a great idea. I'm thinking of doing a section of wall with round magnetic trays for bits and smaller sockets.
Thank you!
I really appreciate how you break down the categories and goals of your projects. Seeing how you think of these things is really helping me think about how to design my own workshop.
Thank you, glad it is helping! Appreciate the feedback.
Great cadence to the video - lots of content without too much talking. You solved the circular saw blade storage problem for me and loved seeing the copious use of magnetic mounts. Thanks for sharing the results of all of the thought and work you've put into your shop!
Thank you, I appreciate that!
Good video, thanks. And as Jonathan said, great cadence. I almost always watch videos at 1.5x. I ended up slowing yours down to 1x. Rare. Good job.
@@annnonomys3132 haha yeah I’m a fast talker. Have to force myself to slow down sometimes lol
Definitely loving this series. Thank you very much man.
Thank you! Glad you are enjoying it!!
Thank you for a well presented video with some great ideas for small-shop woodworkers like me.
Thanks!
Wow! This was one of the most articulated and concise videos I've found on shop organization. Really excellent. Subscribed and now I'm going to go through your backlog of vids.
I appreciate that, thank you!
Thank you for all the great ideas!
Thank you for watching them!
Absolutely brilliant and thank you for so many great ideas!!!
Thank you! Was excited to share.
The best part of this whole series is the thought process. Thank you for that. One other comment is your dust collection system. You are taking expensively warmed-up air and exhausting it outside creating negative air pressure in the shop which is then equalized by cold outside air. I was actually shocked when I had my dust collection system in an unheated part of the building.
Thank you for the kind words. The DC I haven’t had an issue with, as mine turns on and off with the tools. So only time it is running for long periods of time is when I am making repeat cuts on the table saw or sanding. If you did that a lot more frequently I could see it becoming a bigger issue, especially in dead of winter or hot summer.
Love the clamp rack I don’t have much space myself, interesting idea to have them stacked outwards.
Thank you!
Great video, you have given me some things to think about. Great timing too, we just moved and I have a garage that needs organizing!
Boom! Thank you! Glad you found it useful!
came for the magnetic holders on french cleats. was not disappointed. thank you for the idea!
Thank you!
Great video. One thing I found is sometimes I had to divide like tools to two areas of shop. Ex I have screw drivers on wall by my miter saw bench and I also have by my assembly area. I have sockets in roll about and have sockets over by my welding table/chop saw bench. I love your organization, better than mine, but I divide and conquer to cut down my steps. That is what you have to be ever so mindful, as you pointed out.
Thank you, and your logic makes sense as well!
Thanks for a great video. Excellent content and timely for me as I'm struggling to accommodate a wood and metal shop in a similar size space as yours.
Thank you so much!
Great ideas, thank you so much for sharing. Keep up the great vids.
Love the video! Really like the saw holder you made. Great idea about the power tool holder and how it can be changed. Looks like I know my next project.
That’s awesome, would love to see it when done!
Upvote for magnet strips... LOVE those things!
Wow! Great video, lots of thoughtful info. Thanks for posting.
Thank you!
Best videos. After losing my house in august 2020 to hurricane Laura, my wife, 4 kids, and I moved into a camper parked in my shop. Needless to say, space is limited, things are tight, and with 3 young boys and endless projects. What tools I have left are scattered everywhere. Wasn’t sure how to organize or even where to start but I came across these videos and they’ve made life easier. I Appreciate it.
Awful to hear about your house, so sorry to hear that.
"8 clamps per size was enough for me" I don't EVER want to hear this kind of negativity in a video again. I am shocked and shaken by these words ever coming out of a workshop video.
Hahaha I said for now (or at least I though I did)
Excelente Trabajo y optima organización. Te felicito. Mis mejores deseos para 2021... Abrazo grande
Wonderful job! I learned a few things from your experiences. Keep up the great work and keep sharing.
Thank you! Glad to hear it!
Very unique content. Thank you.
Wow... I wish I had seen your videos a year ago! My shop is a mess, and getting a working shop organized is such an up hill battle. Thanks for making this series of videos. Having outside input is invaluable.
Thank you! Glad you are enjoying it!
Great work. Love the critical thinking with the difference between “easy to make” vs “easy to use “.....
Geez, would you care to travel overseas and sort out my schamozzle?
Making me reassess things therefore EXCELLENT!!
Thanks.
Hahaha thanks! Glad you’re enjoying it! Wife wants to travel more, but not sure that’s what she had in mind lol!
Magnets!!!! Genius!!!! Great video - thanks for your efforts to share. :)
Thank you!
Hadn’t seen the saw blade storage like that before! A+++
Thank you!!
I really like this saw blade storage as well! May have to use this as inspiration to build one for myself!
@@Jonathan_Grider thanks! I have plans up on the site now for that one if that is something that interests you (didn’t when video first came out).
Lots of great ideas in this video thanks!
Thank you!
Just found your channel and I’m really enjoying your shop organization series. I like the thought process and ideas. I will view it multiple times and use it as a guide in my garage/shop. Keep them coming. Great job.
Thanks! Glad you are enjoying them!
Excellent. Very well done and planned
Thanks!
Very well done. great attention to detail!
Thank you.
Beautiful shop ideas.
Thank you!
I have a small shop….my wife thinks it’s too big….is there such a thing? Your videos are right to the point, that even large shops can adopt. I appreciate your creativity. My shop is small,but I have added storage in the air as you recommend. Please keep them coming.
Thank you! Appreciate the kind words!
Great video series. It gave me some ideas on my small shop organization.
Thanks! Glad it sparked up some ideas for you!
Props, very informative and thought out. Thank you.
Thanks!
Thanks again for the video!
awesome job, thank you for sharing.
Thanks!
Great video. And I got some good ideas. Thank you.
Thanks!
This is awesome! Thanks!
Great Job!
Holy moly, you are one smart guy
Love the kitty!
I thought the magnets thing was a bit hokey, until he took the whole set of wrenches off the wall in one move.
Mind officially blown.🤯
Awesome job! My goal is to have a shop that is that organized someday. Thanks for the great ideas!!
Thanks!
Nice work, love the cleat system.
Thank you!
Never thought to use magnetic strips! I can always make something pretty later on if I get bored..but in my new space, I need to get stuff up and off the tables and floor! Shops can quickly turn into a mess if there's not a place for things
Great use of a small space. I also HATE pegboard, so standardized on slat wall. But your french cleats are far superior. Looks like another project in my future. It's also encouraging to see you change something when it's needed (clamp storage). Next is a place to keep your Coors Light cold.
That’s my dull razor blade storage haha.
