The guy I got my box off of had hangers for the hutch that he hung air tools on, I forgot to get them when I was there and being that I beat him down a little more on price i don't think he is will to send them to me. Anyone have pics of how they hung there tools in there hutch or ideas of what I can use to hang them. He said he had air tools in it not hand tools.

ya... i used the bluepoint air tool rack (holds 5)

my hutch is for a triple so 72" wide, i got 4 of the racks and cut an inch off each end, as they are 19 inches long.

the bolts they give you aren't suitable for the slots and dots, i used sheet metal screws

these racks run around 55 new... with shipping approx 20-30 on ebay

but i bought mine from vimtools as they were clearing them out at 11.50 each


i'll take some pics and post them later

can you still hang wrenches in there with the air tools hanging? I'm trying to utilize all the space I can

yeah... it depends how long your air tools are and how big the wrench rack is... but if you organize your small air tools on one side and longer ones on the other...sure


not only that... your air tools are dangling... so you could place the wrenches behind the dangling air tools... unless you have ocd that is

actually my box has a surge protector mounted in it, so i bet i could get 2 air tool racks in it and mount some of the wrenches under the surge protector

thanks for the input anyways, I think this will work out good, If i mount the air tools as high as i can I'm sure I can get wrenches under it, at least standard wrenches extra long probably not

thanks man, lots of help I appreciate it. This has given me several ideas. Like I said I want to utilize as much space as I can If I get it all setup good I won't waste the money on a top box, maybe still a locker if I find one.
