I have some well used power tools - drills, sanders, jigsaws etc
whose original boxes have long since rotted, so I just keep
them on my bench. My new years resolution is to keep my
workshop tidy (tidier ?), so I'm after suggestions for their
storage. What do other people do....... make containers
for them, put them on brackets on the wall? All
suggestions gratefully received.

Large pull out drawers on slides under the wall benches. I make slot
together inserts out of ply for them, each taking a tool.




I bpuld some racking from rapid racking, and since my attic now boasts a
ladder and lighting, up went teh racks, and so did the power tools.

They are not in daily use. I tend to grab the ones I need for a specific
job, and then do the big clearup of mess and tools.

I don't have a workshop as such except for toy planes...
