A few of the more interesting drawers. Not as nice as most on here but I only have a HF 44 bottom and Craftsman 26 stack as a DIYer.. I wish I had some of the massive drawers shown in this thread.

There are some nice drawers in here, keep them coming!

here are a few of my favorites:

I am in the process of converting my screwdriver drawer to red. A red carbide scraper is on order and I’m still hunting for an SPB24A or SPBS24 24” red Prybar. The newer style (SPBS24A) is too thick for the 2” tall extra wide drawer.

I made a toolbox tour video on YouTube a few weeks ago if anyone is interested in the rest.

Question -
What do you polished wrench guys use to keep the Shine On?

I have some wrenches that need some Lovin….

I’m just a toy fixer but love tools!
I bought 3 US general box’s 2-44’s / 1-56 and I have a 72 in Mac box I got em all in Yellow so I can SEE in the drawers, Dark drawers make it difficult to see / read the sizes.

I’ve been looking for a silver / light gray drawer liner.

There are some BEAUTIFUL set ups in here! Thank you all for the SWEET Pics !!

I keep each drive size together rather than one giant drawer of all sockets. I have a lot of ratchets and other extras in each size but leaving the basic set in the original blowmolded case makes it easy to carry overto a project20210110_114232.jpg
I have been trying to accomplish that very same idea but it’s kind of hard when all my sockets are on rails. I’m hindsight, I wish I had just bought sets in blow molded cases. Would’ve made everything easier since I’m not a mechanic.

I am also just a DIY guy and have way more box/drawer space than actually needed. I guess I do have an all socket drawer but it's all my impact sets.

Jeffmoss, love your WF craftsman screwdrivers, and I'm also a huge snap on hard handle fan ... also, that Rapid Tap is bad *** stuff.
;)
Miss the old school craftsman screwdrivers where you can slide a wrench on them for extra power- cant do that these days

Haha if it works for you man then that’s what counts. If you think your box is bad you haven’t seen two people in my shop there boxes make me want to run and hide haha. Hopefully my tools don’t get delayed they said they shipped today but no tracking info yet. Probably haven’t left the company yet probably just got the label created.
My garages 2 tool boxes and 3 service carts are a complete mess. tried cleaning it all up, and so far, we have 2 complete 3/8 metric/sae impact socket sets, maybe 3 if I find the 10mm's. haven't even tried to do anything with the wrenches, and they tell me I cant bring my own box and keep it locked- watch me do it

Try PIG MAT for that silver grey drawer liner.

So I’ve been trying to rearrange my bottom roller at work to maximize space. I think it’s getting better. I added a few Ernst trays and that helped a lot. The first pic is my heaviest drawer as I have a Frankenstein set of Wright/Williams/SK SAE combos in the roll and I have two sets of metric and SAE Stahlwille DOE wrenches plus all my SAE 3/8 sockets and my 1/2 drive metric Wera and all my hex t-handles in those Klein bags. The last pic is my deep drawer which I use for my CAM and GD&T manuals, the boxes for my mics and calipers I keep out, and all my snack food and tea. 🤣

Here’s a few newly organized drawers in my old Sam’s Club CSPS box. The amount of time and work it takes to reorganize a box is daunting. I actually asked my wife to help with this. She’s got an eye for organization that I do not possess.61449C1D-6536-4560-87CA-BC682021555E.jpeg61449C1D-6536-4560-87CA-BC682021555E.jpegD718EE27-852E-4D39-B530-EC4C00952971.jpegA89D7154-F123-4097-93D1-870D23CB542A.jpeg

Started to downsize certain areas. As I am soon to be the only journeyman machinist in my department, actually the only machinist in my department, I have been mostly at the shop and not working as much on play things at home. So I kinda moved a lot of stuff I wasn’t using at work to the home stuff and a lot of stuff from home has been re-homed to others. I picked this 5 drawer cart up last year and originally it was supposed to be for my car stuff but I garden a ton and gardening stuff has slowly been going into it. 😂 I have all my Proto stuff here in the cart plus my cheaper wrenches and screwdrivers . I figure they can take the beatings of the fluctuating weather. The home box keeps my German stuff nice and cozy and temperature controlled. Hopefully I can convince my wife to let me add a vintage Vespa back into the garage for me to wrench on. I love those things.
