Tool Storage with French Cleats (1 Wall = 35 Tools)

Updates on   / suj.menon  

1 wall = 35 tools! This is part of my garage workshop organisation series. In the earlier video, I built a workbench with an integrated flip-top mitre saw station. In this, I tried to tackle a problem of power tool & accessories storage. I decided to go with french cleats based storage system. The back wall is around 8 ft wide, so the cleats were built to span 7 ft. There are 7 rows of cleats, all cut out of 2x4's. The storage shelves are all interchangeable, and I have over 35 tools on the wall now. The video covers the basics of setting up a wall, as well as all the storage units that you see on the thumbnail. The shelf cover power tools storage, clamps storage (F clamps, Quick release), drills storage, router storage (1/2, 1/4), track saw, circular saw, reciprocating saw, jigsaw, electric file, angle grinder, biscuit joiner, planer, hot glue gun, standing drill, impact drill, combi drill, SDS Drill, brad nailer, assorted drill bits and boxes, hammers, mallets, chisel, rasps and a lot more! I hope you all enjoy it. Thanks.
