Square & Measuring Tool Holder

BySCWD

Once again it’s a constant battle organizing the shop, especially if you don’t have a specific place to put things.

I had some squares, rulers, and misc things just hanging randomly on the wall.

As I get older I guess I get more OCD about these things. To my defense, a more organized shop is a more efficient shop.

I used an idea I saw and of course customized it to my needs.

This will support more tools as I acquire them in the future.

While I was working I decided to build another clamp rack for the Kreg style clamps as well as the C-Clamp types.

Materials Used:

  • 3/4″ Common Pine Plywood
  • Construction Screws
  • 2 x 4 Stud
  • 1 x 4 Stud
  • 1″ X 36″ Plain Steel Flat Bar
  • 3/4″ Hardwood Round Dowels
  • 5/16″ Aspen Round Dowels
  • White Oak
  • Titebond II Wood Glue

  • Barn Doors

    My neighbors caught wind that I dabbled in woodworking and asked if I could make them some barn doors in their hallway office/den area. I was honored they had faith in me and trusted me to do a good job. I will tell you that barn doors are very difficult to get right because they…

    Yet another addition to the organization of the workshop. I recently added a furry member to our family named “Princess Lucy” (Our daughter’s Idea). A beautiful German Shepard dog. She kept jumping over our retro 80’s low front fence. Our fence,  barely reaching 4′ in height, the dog would jump over it with ease. So…

  • Shopvac Cart

    Like all woodworking shops there is a dust issue. I eventually purchased a shopvac and shortly after a Dust Deputy by Oneida Systems. The foam brick that they include to attach to your shopvac with small casters wasn’t going suffice for my needs. I decided to look for shopvac cart designs online and on YouTube….
