I'm in machine repair and I have a 2 drawer set of desk drawers on my trike at work to carry tools in. I'd like to be able to organize the larger things like
brass,dead blow & ball pein hammers etc. so I'm not having to pick one thing up to get to another.
I'd like to stand the hammers up and secure the handle and alternate them front to back etc. for more room.

Anyway I'm looking for clips similar to a broom handle clip or utility clip, or something similar if anyone knows of anything else I'd like to hear about it.

I'll probably need different sizes. I'm wondering how hard it would be to make my own out of spring steel or something.

Thanks for those links.
Quite a bit at Home Depot but I didn't
see much at mcmaster carr.
Prices are a bit steep I think.

Wheelie bar!
Possibly a form of slat/pegboard, looks like lower box side would accommodate-
noted pad locks,-security concerns for stuff hanging?

The wheelie bar is to keep the trike from
tipping over backwards when you're
not on it.
I can't hardly make heads or tails out of the rest
of what you said.

I would make a rack off the side to hang them like a prybar rack and could make a hinged lid that goes under the toolbox lid when closed so they could be locked with the toolbox. I even have some piano hinges I could send you.

I actually bought a red harbor freight
tool cart that I planned to use as a top
box. I've already modified it some, and
it has holes that allows you to hang
long things on the side already.
