Do you have a picture of these heavy duty pegs that you can put
somewhere with a link to it? I don't know what you mean by "heavy
duty" pegs.


Sorry, don't have any pictures. My pegs are 1/4 inch pegs. Most of them
are the type that either have the metal plate attached to the back end of
the peg with somewhat sharp points that hook in behind the board, or they
are the type that are simply the 1/4 inch peg, bent to fit into two holes in
the pegboard. Both of these types stay in quite well.

I have some of the types that use the plastic piece that hooks into the
board and the peg then just sits into the plastic part, but I don't care
much for those. They do come out easily. I'm not sure if I'm helping you
at all with this explanation.

One of the handiest things I did was to run a french cleat around 3 walls of
my shop to hang cabinets. The cabinets have a slot in each side to allow
getting them over the wall mounted half of the cleat, and I'm able to easily
relocate them when I rearrange the shop. I made extra lengths of the cleat, and
use them to put up various storage racks - clamp rack, saw blade hangers,
holding fixtures for jigs, etc. Now if I could only get the discipline to put
things back in the cabinet, or on the storage racks as I finish using them..

So do I. Seems like most end up ON the bench though. I do have a couple of
sets of drawers from Lee Valley. They hold my sandpaper, some measuring
tools, chisels and assorted small stuff. A couple of Tupperware boxes
about 5 x 5 x 1 hold screwdriver bits, countersink bits, other small stuff
that I use frequently. Pegboard holds other hand tools, sanders are plugged
in and under the bench. One with 120 grit, the other 220 grit.

Router table has two drawers for all the bits and accessories for it.

In the next few weeks I'm going to re-do my bench. That means everything
must be moved so it will be easier to organize as I put things back. The
bench will also be narrower so I can utilize the wall behind it that I
cannot now reach.

After building 3 sets of drawers and planning a couple of cabinets, I

that I use most often..
Hammers and heavy stuff go on the side of the "hardware bin cabinet",
most small saws, paint can openers, rulers, allen keys, etc. hang on a
3' x 30" frame of 3/4 pipe over the work bench..
I find that if I can find the stuff that I use a lot, the rest of the
junk seems to stay out of my way, pretty much.. *g*

recently and had 4 old computers, three dead monitors and 2 dot matrix

When I was moving out of my first apartment, I left behind the first monitor
I ever called my own (instead of Dad's.) It was some real POS with lots
and lots of problems, and I was moving from a place with huge storage to a
place with one half sized closet (and more living space) so I had to get
rid of my little memento.

I shot it repeatedly, even went so far as to pump the gun three times more
than the recommended number and shoot it at point blank range. Nothing. I
put it in the dumpster and threw bricks at it. Nothing. Those CRTs are
actually pretty hard to smash.

Ah, the stupidity of youth. Being immortal was fun.

I wish they'd have a free large-item pickup around here. When we
replaced our sofa, a friend said they were going to pick the old one
up so we left it outside next to the garage and it was gone the next
day. It wasn't until a couple weeks later that we found that someone
else had taken it out into the orange groves and slept on it or
something and it's since gotten rained on and ruined. It's too bad
because it was a nice, nearly new piece of furniture.

Now I'm stuck with this thing I have to get rid of but don't feel like
renting a truck and dragging down to the dump.

You need to surprise them from behind. Take off the case (and try not to

They do not do the large item pick up twice a year. They do it weekly
(We must get something out of the high property taxes that we pay).
However which day that is depends on what neighborhood you live in.

Right. Now what was I looking for again?

I did finally get the back of that new Veritas iron for my #6 lapped and
sharpened. It only took five days.

The worst part of this whole ordeal was that I was off and at home and it
was GORGEOUS weather. 50 degrees, 60 degrees. I haven't hardly worn
anything heavier than long johns and a flannel shirt all week, even at
night.

And I spent the week cleaning house and sitting in hospital room.

Sigh.

heat, no air conditioning. This is perfect weather.)

Oh well. Some things are more important. I haven't fired off the official
notice yet, but she's home now. Has these bags in her for six weeks. Oh

time to let everyone know when they were going to send the trucks

It's more a matter of not having time or enough stuff to really make

Sears used to sell some excellent pegboard hooks/hangers. They were designed
so the bottom part firmly fit into the pegboard and I never ever had one
fall out. They came in a box of about 25 - several shapes available. Sadly,
the last time I was in the US store where I got the others they informed
they don't carry them any more. What a pain.

Recently I was hauling a load of stuff to the dump and among the junk was a
kids workbench. On the small pegboard were four hangers, red in color and
firmly in place. I removed them and now use them on my own pegboard...They
were very sturdy, probably because of the specs placed on kids toy safety.
Wish I could get more of them too because not only do they stay in place but
the red looks great :O) I think Mattel or some other major mfr made it.

Anyone know of another source for the kind I'm talking about - The bottom
part of the pegs was split.

Keith P.

I had pegboard in two previous home shops and always hated it. As
others have noted, the clips always came off, etc.. I vowed that
someday I would have something else. When we moved into our house ten
years ago I had room for a 20' x 35' shop in the basement. The house
design resulted in an alcove in the shop area. I built a set of open
cabinets with shelves that hold plastic bins for hardware for the
bottom of the alcove. Above them are three tool boards of 1/2" birch
ply wood. The tools are organized by function (measuring & marking,
screw and nut handling, edge cutting, hole making, etc.) Each tool
has a custom fitted maple fixture to hold it to the plywood. It works
great. I really enjoy making things and for a while wasn't working on
furniture so I made the fixtures. It was a challenge to design some
of the holders but all in all provided lots of good shop time.

My latest incarnation is to hang 1"x12"x24" pine boards with French cleats
and hang tool categories on each board. Some of the boards are 16" wide.
One board has wrenches/pliers. one has marking tools one will have chisels
etc.
