Dear April, I really love what you do. It's so inspiring. I live on a small farm in Germany and bought a Woodmizer a few months ago. After watching all of your videos i started with woodworking and I really love building sawhorses. Thank you for sharing your experience with all of us. Keep on doing what you do. Greetings from Germany, Lukas

[@catalyst2112]

I come from a construction family in many phases. It is truly inspiring to see young people, like yourself teaching us old dogs new tricks. Keep it up! I do have an interest in that horizontal peg board jar organizational thing. Please advise on that.

[@zachwooster4555]

These tips are actually SO GOOD and simple! I seriously can’t believe how I’ve never thought of some of these before! Thank you for making this video! It’s honestly the best video I’ve seen on shop storage to date.

[@maingun07]

I've done the hook/drill holder and the picture hangers and I've seen multiple uses for PVC pipe storage, but the rest of this is new to me. Thanks, April!

[@ccpeter68]

Sometimes I don’t really care about what you are making, but I love to just listen to you. Everything you do you put your whole self into it. Hope you make videos for a long time. When I build my shop next year I will be getting some charts to hang.

[@shepelkstone]

I am literally just taking a break from cleaning up my garage. I know you always have such a clean and organized shop so I thought I'd get some inspiration. I am now going back out to finish with a few of these great tips. Thanks!

[@elyseallred2522]

Thanks for being so amazing and inspiring, April!!

[@scottsimpey2965]

This in fantastic April. I especially like the idea of the electrical boxes for storage. While watching this I was already planning a jig to hold the electrical boxes to a piece on the backside of my table saw to collect small pieces for segmented bowls. I love all of your quick tip videos as well as your whole channel in general.

[@jessicarandall7670]

Your videos are JUST what I've been looking for as I clean out and organize my shed!

[@puzzlering1]

Thank you, some absolutely brilliant tips, I will definitely use the ones that are applicable and helpful to my small work space Cheers, be safe and take care Sam

[@jimherchak7505]

Wow! Short & sweet, & actually useful! I think I'll bookmark this one.

[@AprilWilkerson]

Awesome! Thanks for watching.

[@alisonsullivan8800]

You're so brilliant! 💜 Thank you so much for sharing. It's all simple. I love how you use things, you would already have in a workshop.

[@marchaney]

We just moved and I'm finally at the point where I am organizing my shop so I can start doing "shop stuff." These ideas (as well as the whole video) were very inspiring. Thank you for posting this!

[@AprilWilkerson]

That is awesome! Take your time and enjoy the process. Glad you found it useful. Thanks for watching.

[@dlfabrications]

All I could think about through this video was "why didn't I think of that" Great video. Thumbs up

[@jimmyponds5504]

Very much so! Great video!!

[@liviusdiyworkshop1012]

Pretty cool! Did one useful myself too: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pKOVd6aqd9t9fM0

[@Cristi4n_Ariel]

The tip at the 0:36 mark, so ingenious yet so simple! Thanks for that.

[@markadams7597]

These are simply brilliant, April! Thanks for sharing!! Great vid. Ty.

[@CStewart0416]

Brilliant, yet simple. Thank you for sharing, as always I love what you do!

[@mikecarter6758]

Love both the electrical boxes and pipe cap tips! Thanks for sharing.

[@custommadecrafts1271]

Just when I thought I need to get organised this came along! Thank you!

[@Smurphenstein]

This is a great bunch of tips April. Lots of tool storage hacks involve either too much cost, fiddly tooling or duct tape. I had already done the magnet chuck key tip but will definitely do a lot more of these.

[@terrigelbaum8066]

I've been watching you since you started. I remember you telling how you got started in woodworking.. And look at you now.....I am proud of you.........blessings to you always

[@AprilWilkerson]

Thanks! Glad you enjoy my channel and are still along for the ride. :)

[@mattjames8683]

Wow, these are genius! Thanks April!

[@VioletDeVille]

These. Are. Brilliant! My workspace is a part of a garage and these are genius.

[@eepjayerdnay]

So often I find "tip" videos are full of either blatantly obvious ideas, or ones that terribly lame/impractical. This is an exception to that! Great ideas and things I haven't seen before or thought of myself. Thanks April!

[@LogHouseFarm]

I will be adding tip #2 to my shop today!

[@lourias]

April, I think you just might be one of the most informative KZbinr woodworker!

[@AprilWilkerson]

Thanks! I'm glad you are enjoying my Channel. :)

[@knowledge2100]

Perfect timing, getting the small things off my bench will help tremendously. Nice tips with the electrical box and old towel hanger. Now I have a place for my clamps and tape. Thank you sharing you knowledge. ErnestG

[@Unicorn73673]

I love videos like this with interesting ways to store things I don’t have very much space so it’s always useful doing research before storing things

[@plankedwoodworking1098]

Great Job April. So happy for your success.

[@FGUK1973]

Those are all an amazing solution to most workshop issues!! 10/10 again April!!!!!!!!!!

[@craigsmith1948]

OMG this is a great video!!! I've used three of your suggestions and even bought the smart jars for my pegboard. Please more suggestions like these because I have a one car garage and hardly any space. Love the PVC caps and put up six of them.

[@dddube12]

Those are great ideas, thanks for sharing April!!!!!

[@MCsCreations]

Fantastic tips, April!!! 😃 Thanks a lot! Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

[@gsmith128251]

I'm a old shop teacher and these are great. Your great kid.

[@elhuertodechale]

Hi April. Thanks for this new video. Every day I learn more with the tips you teach us. God bless you, take good care of yourself. 😘 😘

[@dgoddard]

Lot of great tips! And, finally, a sponsor for something that is more than useful and doesn't cost an arm and a leg. I'll be looking into those for sure.

[@MrTarfu]

A good addition to the magnet drill chuck holder is to add a retractable keychain thing to it so that its tethered to the place and can't possibly be put anywhere else.

[@tmackie1694]

Great tips, April. Thank you 😊

[@damonshodrock9417]

Great tips! Thank you April.

[@MrStukov]

Always great tips and info! Definitely pulling some tips for my workshop.

[@11jdstein]

Every one super practical and easy. Thank you!

[@jimathey6153]

OLD LEATHER SMITH here, I have watched you from the beginning of your videos and you have always had good ideas, I use most of the ones shown today, I have one 4 you, I installed plastic rain gutters on the edges of all my benches which R also on casters, plastic because you can't get cut and they bend and return quickly, GOD'S BLESSINGS ✝️⚾🙃

[@dondieu3154]

Thank you, April. When I get my workshop built, I am definitely going to use some of your REALLY GREAT tips.

[@AprilWilkerson]

Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching.

[@ronalddean4834]

Another great video April thank you for the ideas. Have a wonderful weekend

[@aaroncashion7570]

Love the tips videos. Always great to see what other ideas people come up with.

[@paulschwartz6074]

Great tips, April -- thank you.

[@GavinT7]

Inspirational tips, great video April! Also, your video - installing an airline - just encouraged me to set one up in my little glass art studio, warm thanks, Gavin in England

[@timothylee9350]

Thanks April for all the tips

[@rachelmcgraw8774]

This video was so helpful and full of great ideas, thank you!

[@FredMcIntyre]

All great storage solutions, thanks for sharing April! 😃👍🏻👊🏻 ..... Those SmartJars look awesome, definitely going to keep them in mind!

[@ZivaHadar]

Such great tips!! putting together my first very own woodshop/maker space and will be utilizing a bunch of these. Thank you!!!

[@wingrider1004]

One of the best "organizing on the cheap" videos I have seen...well done!

[@andycampanella3602]

I have been building and fixing things everything from engine rebuilds, home and deck construction to computers and the like. I am thoroughly impressed.

[@armyofshea7941]

These were awesome, Thank you! Also a big fan of reusing my plastic peanut butter jars for odds and ends. Screw the lids to the bottom of a shelf/board....instant, see thru, free storage. And it keeps the plastic out of trash/recycle bin. Keep up the great content.

[@philhode5104]

Are they glass,and the lid plastic?

[@peterdejoseph5197]

Simple but helpful ideas. I used a few myself. Thanks

[@CleaveMountaineering]

Great tips, many I'd never seen before. For the drill press, I fabricate a wooden block and U bolt it to the column near the head. In the wood block I have holes for the chuck key and the most common bits. Also I hang the common toe clamps and such there too.

[@cheppyrinalzi721]

Beautifull and smart...love it...thanks👍🏻👍🏻

[@geekdownrange]

I just added a bunch of things to my holiday wish list!

[@shadowandbosco]

very helpful tips - thanks for sharing

[@chrislizon7483]

Forget tips 1-17. The biggest tip here is use plywood for walls so you can screw things everywhere with no issues. I think this video just sold me on that.

[@jackmaher4466]

I used Red Oak plywood for the wall of my watch repair shop. I am selective where I drill holes though as it is a nice finish. But that was the original reason I chose plywood. It does work great. Also my shop can be taken down easily as it is all screwed together. If needed.

[@paulp.l.4869]

I install plywood instead of gypsum in the kitchen. Cabinets and tiles go on nice and easy.

[@bayoudriftcreations5923]

I'm building a plywood wall, tonight, because it's easier to screw, than concrete. 😂

[@Chris-14all]

You are so right! All that Tips Here need also a big room for each. I have only a very small Shop and habe to calculate with each half Inch. I buy or Made my storage Tools only If i found a good rooms saving solution and the plywood allows me to do ist my way. And also the Concret behind ist too hard 😉

[@iFixJunk]

... except that it's not flame retardant.

[@69virgin1966]

Those are some great tips and tricks to get and keep your work area clean and organized 👍.

[@bettyolis6228]

Fantastic and unique storage solutions! THANKS

[@rblomquist71]

...hopefully you will will use one of them. Wow, I might end up using all of them! Thank you!

[@JedidiahShultzIrishCraftsman]

Thanks for the helpful tips April!!

[@caisiebreen2931]

I love these tips as well as all of your videos. Keep rocking April. You're doing a great service.

[@AprilWilkerson]

Thanks so much!

[@garrisonaw]

Great tips! I've been using #5 and #6 for about 20 years. It's great to see that I'm not the only one who does it!

[@AprilWilkerson]

Awesome! Thanks for watching.

[@rustywp]

Thank you, April, and I'm looking forward to building that rocking chair in the spring!

[@rkerby6375]

Well done! I really like these storage solutions!

[@siriponrunkaputi2796]

Thank you, I like your variety options.

[@lyaminefouadla2726]

[@hassanal-mosawi4235]

[@trussbox2270]

Very nice idea for organisation, thank you

[@davehernandez4177]

Amazing! I learned SO much thank you

[@talladegadude4852]

Great Tips! Would have never thought of those!

[@brooos]

I've watched a lot of storage idea videos but those were some of the best storage ideas I've ever seen.

[@SchysCraftCo.]

A W E S O M E keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work. My friend keep making.

[@mikerallo4851]

A lot fantastic ideas April, Thanks.

[@americanschoolofhypnosis]

Such a helpful video. Thanks April.

[@rusnsc7622]

Clever ideas. Thanks April.

[@moonlightsnowfall6734]

Thanks April, thats good stuff

[@mikereppert97]

I use the back of door show organizers for everything haha pantry, coatcloset for hats and glove, hall closet for hairbrushes and bandaid and stuff, shop for batteries and small tools

[@leegraves101]

I been using one for years to hold spray paint. I also use a dish towel rack to hold spray bottles. Hook the triggers over the towel bar

[@markperron851]

April I have recently retired and am in the process of tossing 47 years of accumulated junk from my career. This could not have been timed better as I finally organize the chaos. Thank you for sharing so many great ideas in one video.

[@AprilWilkerson]

Awesome! And congrats on your Retirement. Enjoy!

[@jasondusinski4468]

Those are some great ideas! Thanks for sharing.

[@alexloddoch553]

These are awesome ideas! Thanks for sharing.

[@pkt1213]

Will be implementing many of these solutions when the new house and workshop are done.

[@MattWeber]

Checked out the smart jars and as far as storage solutions go, they are REALLY well priced. Def on my list for my next shop reorganization when I open up some peg board space.

[@BKRcustommotorbikes]

Great ideas. Love the idea of the elec box, I can see a full French cleat wall of them would be great

[@jackmaher4466]

Wow. Some great tips. I will be using a number of these.

[@oodoodoopoopoo]

I always store my glue bottles upside down to prevent the dried film on the inside of the nozzle. It also leaves the glue ready to flow immediately upon use. I set them inside of plastic cups so they will stand up and I can set them on any surface where I'm working.

[@nelsonpergui7859]

Thank you April! I hope you be fine, I appreciate the time invested!!! 🙂

[@AprilWilkerson]

You are so welcome!

[@anthonymarande8361]

smart jars! great! so many uses, jewelry components, leather,... hook and chain ,so many good ideas and no B.S. Good Job! thank you

[@jafinch78]

Speed square under bench hanger too. Awesome... the hidden bonus workshop storage solution. Those Smartjars seem good. Even better might be a square version to utilize more volume in the same surface area while still leaving enough room for gripping to grab and pull out.

[@tpobrienjr]

Good ideas for storage. Thanks!

[@OldSneelock]

Great ideas. Shower curtain hooks for saws all blades. Genius. Lots more great ideas but that one I will use today. 😁😎

[@tree_carcass_mangler]

Brings a smile to my face when I see one of my favorite KZbinrs watches another that I sub to.

[@OldSneelock]

@@tree_carcass_manglerNice to see you too. Been watching since she started. Great ideas. Most of them much bigger than my little operation. 😁😎

[@idlewildsage8088]

super great. Thank you!

[@kevinlewellen1037]

Excellent storage ideas :-) . Thank you for sharing this!

[@jerrycomella6670]
