Wrench Storage

Featured Replies

Anybody have interesting ideas for storing wrenches? Box end, specifically. Wanting to make something for a friend who doesn't necessarily need them super portable as much as accessible.  Something to hang in the garage? 

garden rake, curl the teeth a bit more and make the tang take two 1/4" lag bolts and then it can mount on any 2x4 in the walls.  I have a half dozen of them mounted in my shop and more to be mounted as needed.

I happen to have a couple of those kicking around! 

I have a gracious plenty of them.  When I get my welder online I'm going to make some centipedes!

I have short pieces of automotive heater hose pop riveted to the inside of my old tool box lid. They're cut opposite the rivets and let you just push a wrench in and the hose hold it in plain sight for easy access.

I thought for a moment it was wench storage, I have always found they get grumpy if not stored correctly Beaver

 

You want to have some fun with it? Make wrench hangers out of old rusty open end wrenches. Bend the handle near the working end ~90 degrees, bend the end of the wrench tips up, and punch a few holes in the handle. Screw them to wood of your choice. If you bend the other end also, each wrench can hold 4 box wrenches.
