Using tool boxes drives me crazy. I have used a board for many years for the reasons you have said. Strangely my 7/16 ring / open end spanner has been missing for a while. My board is not as nice as this one. Just a sheet of MDF with hand drawn outlines but it works. I'm going to take the next...

I'd be unlikely to sell it, but I'm curious what it would be worth. Any idea?

I got a little excited when I saw the Supergoose hanging there. Very similar to my old bike, except mine has black wheels, seat etc. It was as tidy as yours too, until it spent the last 30 odd years stored in various sheds. Maybe I should restore it.... Along with the next 3 car projects I have...

Corrugated steel is about the most common building material over this part of the world. My whole 60x30 shed is built from it. Just FYI there are products over here that have a sandwich of corrugated steel, foam and then another layer of either corrugated steel or flat steel. If I was building...
