Tool Box Organization

What do you guys think of this 4'x8' slat wall kit for $145 shipped? Just not sure where to get additional hooks and shelves, or if they're the universally compatible type (unlike my Gladiator system):

Looks good to me. I have these in my shed that holds much of the woodworking and outdoor tools and it cleaned it up immensely.

I use the same thing in my garage.

When it comes to tool boxes, consider repurposing old filing cabinets. They're super cheap and hold a ton.

My office was changing out the furniture to something newer. Had to beg them for some old cabinets because they were slated to go to the dump…

Total waste of $

Since I spend a lot of time "tinkering" at the bench I like to have the screwdrivers close to hand. Also I found that strong magnets can be quite handy. Note the magnet on the far right holding the steel rules. Holds that large 2ft Starrett rule no problem.

If you look close you can see I screwed up and cleaned 3 RH float bowls and only one LH

Horizontal filing cabinets are really good too. I have two horizontal and two conventional in the garage.

Good deal.

You can get slatwall hardware at Home Depot, or used at many retail shelving recyclers.

Slotwall fixture can be secured with a screw and the board doesn’t need a frame, so installation is easy.

I used to have office cabinets in the garage, they are great if stationary. They are not designed to move, so wheels are a problem.

I like everything to move easily in my garage.

I framed my shed with 2X4s and keep a hammer and some 3-1/2" nails on a shelf. Making a holder is fast and easy.
