I really like how you fast forward through some of the videos, but provide detailed voice-over comments. You're presentation style is detailed, understandable, and very interesting. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!
Thank you! I'm glad to know that you're enjoying my projects, and my presentation style!
Just revisited this today, and forgot what an inspiration it was for my shop tool holding. You created a chapter in a shop encyclopedia that will be valued for a long time. Thanks, hope your current endeavors are rewarding.
Types of videos I watched over the year;
Mid teens: prank videos and jackass clips
Early 20's: comedy skits, creative animations
Late 20's: political satire, news
Now I'm my early 30's and just bought my own house: this.
Absolutely outstanding work, the finished product made me feel like I could relax my soul
I’m glad to hear that I’m not the only that relaxes to the idea of organization 😂
Great work! At first, I thought it was a complicated build but then it was not. It was very simple and practical. Looks clean too. I like that you used finished nails on some hangers which gave the illusion that the tools hanging from them are just sticking on the board. Thanks!
Great job. I’m setting up a new workshop at the moment, and have looked at French cleat systems. This seems much more efficient and less labour-intensive. Thanks for the video. 👍🏼
The hot glue trick blew my mind. LOL. Great build.
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for the informative video. The best tip for me was the hot glue disc to add grip for magnets. I've had this problem before and hadn't come up with such a simple solution. Thanks.
No problem! I’m glad you enjoyed it!
I liked how you used those large pole clamps to hold up your plywood while you attached it. Work smart, not hard.
When you work alone you'll come up with great ideas.
What a great idea and the video really shows how the tool holder was constructed. Great job!!
Good ideas all, especially the home made saw tracker and the way you rigged up an old drill to make a sand paper station.
Thanks, Robert!
Now the experience you shared in the beginning makes this video worth a ton.
Thank you! I'm glad you got something out of it!
This is brilliant! I love the extra nails that act to hold the shape. Thank you so much 😃
I just built a huge bench and backboard and this is exactly what I needed to see. Practical and stylish 👌
Great organizer! We would love to see an updated video on your shop organization!
I love this idea. I have also found peg board wanting. I am off for a little while from work what a great project to get further organized. Thanks for all the ideas. Love your channel. Keep learning.
Really nice job on your wall mounted tool organizer. Over the winter I completed my new workshop build project using beveled shiplap boards mounted to fir strips on concrete walls. I too used finish nails on certain light tools mounted directly to my shiplap. Custom individual tool holders, quite similar to what you have done here is a work in progress for me currently.
Thanks for sharing your build...
Bill on the Hill... :~)
Thanks, William! Your shop sounds really awesome!
Logically placed, skillfully crafted and well presented. Great video, well done, sir.
That's really smart with the brad nails.I also work by myself and always have trouble mounting large things by myself.
Thanks! I think the trick is to just add barely enough to hold whatever it is your trying to mount, that way way you can still move it. Good luck!
There's something very artistic about the arrangement
Thank you....I guess when you're neurotic enough, it starts to look like real art 😂
This is the best idea I've seen for a tool wall. Simple and effective.
Good to see the reasoning behind some of my own _similar_ storage features, explained and displayed so well in this. Nice work, mate. 🙂👍
Hi Tommy.
Very classic Tool organiser Board. Truly makes work easy and efficient. Great work.
That thing looks so on point! Organization is so key when creating and building things!
Thanks man!
love the two-sheets of plywood idea.
Thanks!
My favorite part by far is the diy grip discs. That's pure genius.
I have come to the same conclusion you have after using a pegboard for over 30 years. Once you set it up you never move anything. And yet I've knocked tools off of it because the little holders keep coming out of the holes.
This is a great inspiration for my new work bench that I'm building now. I'm going to most likely tear down my old pegboard system and put up something just like yours. Thanks for the great inspiration!
I’m glad to know that you’ve been inspired! Good luck with the project!
they make plastic bars that go across the hanger to hold them in
Thanks for the tip!
Nice idea with the grippy glue discs, love it!
Those grippy discs are absolutely genius!
I didn't see it mentioned in the video, but noticed it at the end.... nice touch with the paper towel rack ;) I like that it doubles as a small shelf. Overall really great job!
Fantastic ideas and clear presentation. I have been looking at pegboards, but everything looked rather flimsy, restricting and not accommodating all of my requirements. Then I came accross this. This is exceeding all my expectations - look no further, thank you so much.
Looks like a great setup. Needed some inspiration and mission accomplished. Thanks 👍
Thank you! Glad to help!
Been waiting to see the final product. Clean/simple design, great application for use. Thanks for the video.
Thanks, Mark!
this is awesome!
That trick with the hot glue to make the magnets more grippy was ingenious! Well done, its cool to see this come together after seeing a few of the bigger builds being featured previously.
Thank you! I tried a few different things before I found out that the hot glue would be a solution. I originally noticed when I added hot glue to my updated saw track, that while a little bit of glue was still exposed (before I sanded it away) on the bottom side, that even that little bit really made the track grippy. I considered leaving the hot glue on the bottom of the track for that reason, but realized it pushed the track every so slightly away from the material, which increased my chances of tear-out. That said, I logged into my memory the fact that hot glue added grip to things!
That's so counter-intuitive! One would think that since the tool is now farther away from the magnet, it's worse off. Of course the magnet affects less, but the added friction really works wonders. I wouldn't have guessed.
Yeah, the magnets actually have a really strong pull force, but the shear force is where they are weak. Just a little bit of friction does the trick though!
Thanks for clear and easy ideas, tired of things too sophisticated , well done, I'll certainly copy yours, thanks again
Glad it helped!
Great video. Thanks for sharing. I have also seen people use a French clear system which allows for movement of the pieces as required or more tools are added.
I like it! I have used the peg board system for my tools and it's worked well for me. I bought some little clips that hold the pegs in the board so they don't come off when I grab a tool. I wish I had more wall space to put tools on because it works so much better to hang your tools up than put them in a drawer.
Great solution and description of why a pegboard isn’t optimal for a lot of us. I had not thought about the fact that I never reorganize it - 14 years of friction in my shop created by me using the wrong tool (for me) for storage. Also really love the homemade track - so many CZcams channels use crazy expensive track systems. I would of course love to have an all-Festool shop, but it’s a bit out of reach for most of us. This is an awesome alternative. Thanks!
Hey thanks for echoing the sentiment that I think so many of us feel…Festool, send us all free tools already! 😂
Very nice project! thinking on doing something similar for my little garage shop, thank you for the inspiration!
Nice simple solution. I also noticed the power switch on your disc sander. I believe these switch/outlets are under utilized, and much more economical than alternatives.
Thank you! Yeah, they are definitely way cheaper, but they don't have the style or the added safety features of some of those cool aftermarket switches. But again...more affordable tends to win for me!
That is a handsome looking system. Like how it displays the hand planes as well
You have a huge space there !
Good organization! 👍😁✌🏻
Ended up with dad's wood shop tools after he passed. I've got them on those plastic cabinets which just take up too much room in the garage. He had a system similar to yours which I couldn't get off the garage wall before the house was sold. Wish I did. But, with Corona snooping around I've got time to work on this project to organize the garage and get room back for the car. It's a small garage so space is of importance.
I agree with you. I don't like the peg boards either. Dad told me to stay away from those as well. Mediocre in quality and longevity.
Bee Bob, good luck making use of this time you have to renovate your shop! Let me know how it goes!
Right - I'm doing mine this week!!!! Thank you for the technique and overall inspiration!! Top man
This has inspired me to give my garage a revamp. Thanks.
Glad to hear it 🙂 Have fun with the revamp!
This is great! Love the organization. You should do videos on how you made the nut driver holder, etc.
What an awesome idea! Your work bench looks really neat and very organized.
Thank you! If you're interested, here's the video for the workbench itself: czcams.com/video/SKOCpNIV2Is/video.html
WOW! I admire your eye for detail and planning your tool organizer, I learned a lot from your video! Thank You!
Always loving the way you make it so easy to build.... Thanks for sharing ❤
Thank you!
Wow. Beautiful job! Loved the vertical sanding disc rig. I actually have done something similar with a belt sander. 👍😆
Awesome! So innovative. We recently moved and haven't yet set up our garage workshop. This is the first thing we plan to do. Thanks!
Thank you! Good luck setting up your shop and getting organized!
I'm just starting to build something similar to this. Thanks for your great ideas.
I am about to reorganize my shop and was thinking french cleat but after your video I have changed my mind ( sort of ) French cleats could also be added to your design. Thank YOU , SUBSCRIBED !
Thank you for subscribing, and welcome to the channel! Good luck getting your shop organized!
Loved the hot glue disks on magnets. Can’t wait to try it out
Great video, thanks! You summed up the peg board problem perfectly. This board is functional and looks a whole lot better too.
Thanks! Glad you dig it!
Simple, yet effective. Since I need one at home, I will use varnish to make it look nicer.
Dude, i never had a tools panel and this video really helped me what to look for when i will make my own. Thanks
Good luck with your build!
Wow,wish this was in my garage. You certainly work smarter not harder. Very smart
Thanks, Annie - I'm glad you dig it! The good news is that you too can have it in your garage...you just have to build it 😉
Nice job, you have set up a very workable tool board. I will be starting the removal of most of my peg board leaving those above 6’ finding them handy for extension cord, rope etc. Thanks for the idea and great example.
I'm glad you found it helpful! Good luck with your build!
This is exactly what I want for my new workshop!!! Great video
Thank you, Karl! I'm glad you dig the idea for your shop. If you build it, let me know how it goes!
That hot glue disk tip is AMAZING! The peg stops are also genius. You've inspired me. I've been waiting for this video and it didn't disappoint at all!
Thank you, Dawn! I mentioned to someone in another comment that if you watch my saw track update video, you'll see that I used some hot glue on the bottom, and squeegeed it. That formed a thin layer that that made the track really grippy. In fact, the only reason I didn't leave it on the track was because it lifted the board up away from the piece being cut, which ruins the "low-tear-out" effect of the track. I'm glad the video didn't disappoint - it was a long time in the making, partly because the project took so long. Again, I'm just glad you enjoyed it!
@@OneMinuteWorkbench Thank you for showing how to use your own items to figure out the measurements. I know it may seem intuitive, but my trips to the big box store are few and far between (due to distance). Knowing what I need before I go helps so much. I'm new to woodworking, so setting up my workspace in a limited area is very important. I'm looking forward to more videos! Thank you for showing your thought process behind your setup. I just watched the saw track update video and totally get why you had to change it. Glad you can still use the trick, though, for other things.
what a great idea! I was thinking of making my own peg board but this is even better. I will do something similar I think.
Thanks for some inspiration. My solution will be very different but the peg-board Idea went out of the window for me some time ago because I find them ugly. My workshop is part of my home so it has to look presentable. The point is your video made me think carefully about how I need to do things instead of rushing in to build.
Thanks for letting me know you got some inspiration out of this project - I appreciate it! Good luck with whatever direction you take for your shop!
Excellent tip for the grip discs on the magnets!
Thanks!
Nice build! And the 4k is looking c-r-i-s-p! The modularity/reconfiguration loving me wondered "why no french cleat" but I guess one can fit more tools this way + it's faster to build. Thanks for the video! Now go make more :D
Thanks, Joonas! Working on it!
This is great. I mounted a piece of boards on my shed wall today. I’ll copy something like this for the tools. Cheers
Thanks Tommy, another great project and video. It’s always the detail that makes them so interesting.
Thanks! I'm glad you're digging the projects!
I have never thought of using my pipe clamps to hold a board to the wall. good job
Thanks Tommy! I needed a toolboard for my guitartech workshop
Amazing customized tool wall mount system you built. Looks easy but its not that much easier. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Thank you so much for sharing your insights and experience! Very helpful!
Thanks, a really simple but well thought out project. I'm inspired to get something similar done at last!
Good luck with your project!
Every workshop should have these tool boards. They create floor and bench space, encourage safety and give you a real sense of skill and professionalism when you open the 'shop' in the morning
Just found your channel today and have already liked 👍 the 3 videos I've watched so far. AND subscribed 😎🛠📐🗜
I like the detail you did for placement on your tools and how you utilized the router bits. Thanks for your videos 😁
Thank you and welcome to the channel! I’m glad you’re enjoying it!
MAN !!!! That is really nice !!! ........... I never really liked peg boards either.....it is hard to find the right hangers........with the way you are doing it......I can make my own. I am going to build one like this for my shop. Thanks
Good luck with the project!
What a sturdy and effective customized solution...... In stead of expensive PEG board, appreciate your approach. Only things, I feel , one can getaway that thin board (10 mm ?) that you have put on the wall .
I'm in the middle of transforming a 12 by 20 foot shed into my workshop, and I have the same view on this setup being much better than pegboard or even French cleats! No extra brackets to buy for the peg board and easily place anywhere, and no extra wood to use for mounting strips as required for French cleats! After I put in the insulation, I just lined the walls with half inch OSB sheets of wood and now I can just mount anything directly to the wall and the entire wall is my tool board!!!
Keep up the good work! I was looking for a decent plan for a tool organization board for a long time. I'm inspired to build, thanks!
Thanks - I'll do my best!
Awesome and simple design. Love it! Thanks for sharing.
Thank you, Paul!
I love the hot glue grip pad idea! I have put lines of hot glue on rulers to add grip and it works great.
Thank you, and thanks for sharing!
I am glad I found this... I like parts of it... I do not dislike any of it... I just want to do a combination of your ideas and peg board... I tend to use the peg board holders and make custom holders and marry the two...
This again has some seriously great ideas... thank you for the video.
Nice job there Tommy! 👍🏻 I need something like that... thanks for sharing!
Thank you, Bill! If you wind up doing a project like this, let me know how it turns out!
Nice tool board Tommy. Love the trick with the hot glue discs. Cheers, Huw
Thanks, Huw!
I would make photo copies of each tool, cut them out and stick in place. Makes it easier to move to another location. Sharpie markers are more permanent .
Loved this. I love anything which lifts tools out of the way and gives them their own safe spot. I have found that it not only helps make tools have a longer life, and speeds up the work process (no searching), but my tools get better taken care of. As I see them, if one has a little more wear it will stand out. So I will pull it, give it a minute on a wire wheel, get it back to store quality and then put it back. Also BRILLIANT magnet hack. Just that extra bit of grip to hold it.
Thank you! I'm glad you dig it!
Awesome project man! - I'm gonna use this.
I think I may add it to my apartment workshop
I wouldn’t have thought about the waviness of the drywall when building this wall board! It looks great!!
Thank you! I'm glad you like it!
It would take me a lifetime to build this wall not to mention all the tools I would have to buy to built it. But it t elegant and functional. Well done!
Thank you! And, it might not take you as long as you think. I've only been collecting tools for close to 20 years, so nowhere near a lifetime 😉
Thank you so much for this video. Precise, easy to follow, to the point. 3:47
I needed actually what you presented. Thank you so much for all your help!!
You have designed a very nice tool board and given me some good ideas to use. Thank you 👍😎🇦🇺
Thanks!
Great idea and perfect timing for my new workshop!
Thank you, and good luck setting up your new shop!
Dude thats a nice shop! Id give anything to have that setup along with those tools. Im working on it. I have 2 circular saws. 2 table saws, 2 pneumatic staple guns, id much rather have a pneumatic nail gun, im going to work on that, a ton of pliers, screwdrivers, bolts, screws, sockets, hammers, etc.
That board is exactly what I need for my everlast accessories and metal working tools.
That was awesome. I have that same problem with my peg boards. Thanks for sharing young man.
Thank you, and you're very welcome!
Nice looking tool board wall Tommy! Thank you for sharing the video. 👌👍😎JP
Thank you, JP! I'm glad you liked it!
@@OneMinuteWorkbench😎
Im so glad i saw this video before i started hanging tools. Great video.
It's beautiful!!! Job very well done 😊🙌🏽
Just what I’ve been looking for! Thanks!
simple and economical yet effective…great job sir. i was actually looking for a tool board (peg type) but now changed my mind to something like the one you made…excellent!
I’m glad to sway you away from pegboard! Good luck with your setup!
I might add something like this to my apartment workshop!
very good work bro, thank you for showing us
I like how well thought through this is. At first the video looked obvious but I definitely learned a few things. Like
