Square & Measuring Tool Holder

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
