Set up a new tool cart. Would like to see some other suggestions too

Looks like a very efficient use of the space available. I don't see anything I would do differently or add, if you needed screwdrivers or pry bars it would be as easily as drilling a line of holes as needed.

Looks good and neat, you a facilities guy?

Very nice! Wouldn't change anything. Especially like the magnetic strips on the side for pliers and wrenches.

I like the magnetic rails too. I use something similar actually inside a tool bag, and I'm soon going to be transferring it to a cart somewhat like yours. Take a look at VIM Magrail TL magnetic rails. They're designed to go flat in a drawer and store sockets, but using the socket posts and the "lifters" as dividers, they work absolutely awesome mounted on a vertical surface, for all kinds of tools.

What magnetic rails are those ? Not sure the cardboard will last long, need to look for a plastic container to cut to replace that. Reminds me I need to do the same.

Only/main problem I see is no way to secure tools. (Tools that walk away)

This in my garage. No one but me works in there.

Magnets are Von haus Ebay.

Mostly used for mowers, motorcycles, Side by sides, and yeah some hunny do tasks.

Mainly what I discovered is that having necessary tools all within sight and easy reach, I actually enjoy again doing some of these mundane tasks. No more endless trips retriving tools from a tool box drawer. I'm actually considering getting a second one. Also I think the fact that its so small and easily positioned right beside where I'm working, allowing to reach any tool right from a rolly seat. Not sure why I never used a cart before but I'm sold now on its effectiveness.

Looks very efficient.. I too would do this but it will be a few years as my 2yr old and 5 yr old would make quick work of misplacing things!!

That’s fantastic and built for your needs. I would probably upgrade the cardboard for some plastic bin. Check the usual places like Walmart, Dollar Tree and if need be look at the Container Store. Other than the cardboard I wouldn’t change anything.

Added a few more things, plus a set of Mountain wrenches to the cart. Man am I impressed with these wrenches. Why didn't I know about these until now?

I used to have a tool belt set up for framing and one for electrical work. I had a couple of plastic tackle boxes similar to the Stanley that went with each belt.

Same idea I guess. Maybe ladders are a bit harder with a cart.
