Finally solved my storing problem.. (Pic Heavy)
on: August 21, 2010, 09:04:19 PM
Well sort of..  :)
I picked up this American Pro 2201 TopChest earlier and I'm quite impressed with the quality.. :tu:




I'm not a big fan of storing the tools without their pouches, but it looks like I'm already running out of space so I might have to reconsider.. :think:
As Nuph says, there's hours of OCD fun.. :D
Pics so far..:

Top - LM:



Small drawers:



More LM's:



SOG's:



Bear - Gerber - Vics:



Misc:

Well I am seriously thinking of getting another identical unit to the one I already have. I just figured out a place for it, that will involve a little movement of furniture. My house is not all that large. So just show her photos of my set up. That should put things in perspective for her. :D

Allan,

I showed the pics to my wife and she said, "He's Scandinavian isn't he?"  (She's of Swedish descent.  :drool:)

Needless to say, my tools are no where nearly as organized.  :P

Looks good Allan!  I am still using a plastic 3-drawer that I bought from Walmart.  I keep trading and selling the MT's and SAK's with no sentimental value, so my collection is a tad small.  Way to go getting organized!

Allan that looks TOPS mate I wish I could have a set up like that in the house , that is never going to get rubber stamped by the misses  :( :( :(. Maybe in my shed , my shed is not secure enough for me & I like having my multitools close  :D :D :D.

Did someone say TiNi SOG's  :think: :think: :think:





My third TiNi SOG has found my US middle man , the TiNi finish is a bit patchy but I am well happy to have it almost on the way  :D :D :D 8) 8) 8) 8).
