Hi! I'm Rick (AKA Deckape) in the Wichita, KS area. I'm 65, but who looks at calendars?
My purpose in being here is to discover what others are doing to arrange their shop & tools effectively & efficiently.
My tool organization policy has always been buy the tool, use the tool, put the tool down, go do something else, 2 months later look for the tool for an hour
, grumble about the kids running off with the tool (no kids @ my house),
go buy another tool, repeat the process as needed.
I've been working on cars, boats, campers, wood working projects, and honey do's since age 12 (53 years),
Now I think I should do something different in the shop besides looking for tools.
My shop is 48' X 60' (5 stalls wide,& 2 stalls deep with a pit, with a 36 X 48 upstairs storage & future man cave area) with tools all over the place.
