I have your typical set of metric and english combination box/open-end
wrench sets in various drawers in my toolbox.

But they're all jumbled about such that it takes longer than I'd like to
grab a certain size or a sequence of certain sizes.

How do you store your combination wrenches so that they are easy to access?


Plank on wall with row of nails. Hang spanners on nails. Label as
appropiate.


Open-end wrenches hanging on nails?

I just keep them in holders. They take less wall space and I can grab the
whole bunch, if needed. Same with sockets. Sorta like this one:
