Cheers :) It surprises me how many models they still have going, and you can see a big drop in 2004 as well.

The short purple line above the Squirt S4........right about top center......which tool does that relate to?
In order to be certain of having the right tool for every job.........one must first acquire a lot of tools

Lines laid out nice and neatly now, do you think they need to be different colours? And does it need names for the tools? If so where abouts?

I'd say yes - add the names! Maybe below each tool? Or vertically next to the tool?

Looking really good Roadie btw.

I'm thinking names directly below each tool as well.  And yes, maybe a 3 or 4 colours to make it a little easier to see.  :)

Looks great mate.  :)

Trouble with names below each tool would mean moving them all (at least some) up which would be a lot of work :-\

Down the side it is then.  :D

I actually did that post before I saw your side text examples.  They look pretty good.
