Tool Caddy If you need a way to keep small hand tools organized, then build the lazy Susan tool caddy shown in the photo on the right. The caddy has pegboard sides held by grooved corner posts. You'll want to make sure the holes in the opposite sides line up with each other. You can slide Vi" dowels through the sides to divide the space inside the caddy (drawing at right). By making the dowels extra long, you'll have a great place to hang small hand tools. A 3/4"-thick bottom screwed to the caddy keeps it square. Self-adhesive magnetic strips can be added to the outside of the caddy to hold smaller tools, like driver bits or a short metal rule. Vertical Tool Hangers With just a little ingenuity, you can add storage in unlikely places, like you see in the drawing and photo at right. A good way to add storage to your contractor's saw is to sandwich a piece of peg-board between the extension wings and tire top of the table saw. The pegboard hangs below the table and provides a way to store wrenches, blades, and other saw accessories. To add storage to your workbench, you can nail some cleats to the legs and upper and lower end rails of the bench (far right photo). Then place the pegboard against the cleats and tack a second set of cleats down to hold the pegboard in place. & corner post (% x % - &Vz) side (6 x SV4 - V4 Pgbd.) \ support rod f!4"-dia. dowel, 9" long) self-adhesive magnetic strips NOTE: pegboard holes may need to be enlarged to fit dowels 6" lazy susan hardwood bottom (% x &h - S'A) base (&Vz x SVi2 -Hdbd.)

And tire shelf can simply hang on L-hooks inserted into the pegboard (see inset photo at right). For added support, I attached a back piece to the bottom edge of the shelf (main photo). The back also provides an area to screw in several more L-hooks. These hooks create a convenient place to hang a few extra hand tools. A To add storage to pegboard, use L-hooks to attach a small shelf. 43 |
