I wanted to get organized in the garage shop and take full advantage of my French cleat wall that I installed a couple years ago. So I used leftover scrap wood to make a bunch of different holders for my most used tools. I have come to hate having my tools hidden away in drawers or cabinets, especially when they’re inside of a case. Now I’ve got easy to move storage solutions for most of the tools that I use every time I’m in the shop. Hopefully you’ll find an idea here that you can make, and please let me know in the comments any ideas you have for more French cleat solutions! I hope you all enjoy, like, and share! Let’s go!!!
