The only thing that gives me trouble is items like pliers. Most of
the slot wall hooks are simple pins to hang things from. Pliers and
such need some sort of better "hanger" which us usually a hole or slot
in a board. Anyone have any ideas or good method of hanging this kind
of thing? Where it doesn't interfere with the tool, I've attached a
large washer to the end of some handles to just hang them from the
standard pegs. however, I don't like having pliers and nippers in the
rolling tool chest so want to find a better solution.



Old Popular Mechanics are good sources for ways to use pegboard creatively.

My pliers hang on pegboard "hooks" which have two parallel wire rods
spaced about 3/4" apart sticking straight out about 5", with a U loop on
the outboard end. I can stack up six or seven pairs, largest ones at the
back.

Looks like these:

Just stick one plier handle in between the two rods.

Shouldn't be a rocket science project to roll your own either.
