I have, over the years, accumulated quite a collection of power hand tools,
each arriving in its own molded, form fitting case. Problem is, where to
store all of this. I am building a shop, and elected to store these tools
in drawers or on shelves that are sized to fit the tool, and not the case,
as I have run out of room, especially for the gartgantuan cases like my
Milwaukee cordless circular saw (only comes in a case sized to carry the
complete set of 18V Milw tools). I am planning to toss the cases into the
recycling bin or donate them to someone that could use them.

Question: How do you store these tools and their cases? Am I messing up by
tossing the cases?



My basement has full (well, maybe 6'4") headroom in only 1/2, the
other half is just a crawlspace about 4 ft high. Most of the time I
wish the basement was larger but when it comes to things like those
plastic cases that I don't use, but seem to "nice" to throw away, that
crawlspace sure does come in handy.
