I found this tip today and it's a pretty cool and efficient way to store those hand saws & easy to make.

That looks like something I should make. Don't have many hand saws but this would make getting to what I do have easier.

Lewis I'm in the same situation, I have 5 hand saws but don't use them often but they sit flat on my counter top and I have been trying to come up with a storage solution when I found this one. Like you said it will make them easier to get to without taking up a lot of space.

This is a great solution. I don't own many, but this would make space for other tools above my workbench. Plus a place to store the longer saws also. Thank you for sharing this.

Now that is spectacular. So simple, how come we don't think things like this up?

I like it but that would probably be the part of the bench i put my hand up on to stop myself from falling forward and would slice myself up, lol

Better to mount a U shaped channel built like this ( IIII) under the benchtop and slide the saws in on their backs.
