neverending toolbox organizing.

[robzter]

Hello there. this will actually be my first post here but I'm a regular lurker since 2 years.

Ive got a big mactools wagon with top drawer but i have hit the wall bigtime when it comes to organising. I'm having trouble fitting all my tools.

my friend bought a kamasa wagon complete with tools that holds most the stuff i would want and it uses the foam type of organising.

i bought a set of quick find stands for the sockets but feels like i would need 3 of them just to fit them all (3 sets of 1/2, 3/8, 1/4 each and i still wouldn't be able to fit the bigger sizes that is 27mm+ in size since not a single one of them goes higher. what would you recommend? i want it to be easy and fast to find the tools. but then again i can't find decent ones that is marked for the HEX and Torx.

i can't find a good setup for sorting the ratchets and extenders for them all. want it to look good.

even pliers are hard to find a system for. have way to many and most of them are of different brands.

i even have one drawer just for the adjustable wrenches. have 3 of every size possible :/

what do you recommend? ill post pics tomorrow since i need to get to the garage to do so.

yeah i looked around but most of the time it feels like everything is just thrown into the box. some of the ratchet holders i see looks more like the holder will follow the actual ratchet up when i take it. and on that most of the tools looks like they bought a set and put it in without taking out the tools out of the box.

There are several threads here that highlight organization. If you go to advanced search and type the in it'll pull up a ton of threads. You can also click on my name, then hit the statistics tab, then threads. You'll find my latestest thread on building a lista box. The last couple pages have pictures of my drawers and if you have any questions please ask away. Being on a phone right now makes it too hard to pull up the links.
