April 7, 20179 yr Popular Post Ever see the birthday card: "for the man who has everything.....a bag to put it in!" Cute. I found that my bench works the same: need bag. So I had a scrap piece of 1x6 maple, ran some grooves down it. [Next time I'll use a dado blade] The grooves keep things from rolling around. [the stuff above the block: all the stuff that was on the block before the pic] The red color helps it stand out. Whenever I can't remember what some tool is doing there, I finally put it away. [It's all about discipline: ah hain't got none] I found that the block needs some wider (3/8") grooves for the larger handles, such as the chisel, or they'll roll. It really helps prevent "bit, bit, where'd I put the bit?" time wasting.
April 7, 20179 yr Cool beans...I've been wondering where my screwdrivers and wood chisel rolled off to...now I know
April 7, 20179 yr Better than what I use for the same reason...I'm using a plastic cafeteria tray. When it's full I have to put everything away. When it's not, it doesn't last that way long
