Adam Savage's Custom Tool Storage Stands

[@tested]

Adam Savage shows off one of the most important parts of his workshop: his tool boxes: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z4CzhJV8a9CAb80

[@GodzHammer]

Is there a blueprint available to make the this stand so we're not starting from scratch?? Thanks

[@shandilalala]

specialforcesnavy did you find the plans?

[@GodzHammer]

shandilalala sure didn’t

[@woodworkerroyer8497]

Have you sent the Ridgid Job Max right angle impact driver? Much smaller profile than that RA drill. Only for hex shaft bits, but still...

[@Acecool]

Do you have the part number for the stapler. Can't find it anywhere.

[@MADBONE0]

this is so therapeutic or something im so chilled out and calm with how organized Adam is

[@Nighthawkinlight]

Going through a shop reorganizing process myself and I think I may throw something like this together. Probably will add a power strip to the bottom and some kind of cable management/hangers for angle grinders and such.

[@scrambler350]

The tool/organization nerd in my loved this video. I've gone from toolboxes to pegboard in the last few years...gotta love having everything visible at all times. I also apply the 'One Layer' rule to my garage and keep everything in a place where it is visible/accessible at all times.

[@TheLexiconDevils]

Slim drawer toolboxes.

[@YaYeVlad]

I first heard Adam mention first order retrievability a few years ago, and it has stuck with me ever since. It makes working on something soo much faster, and you don't hesitate on starting a new project because you don't have to dread spending a lot of time digging up all the tools you need. More videos like this please.

[@Joe-bm4wx]

Hey Adam, I love the tool shelf vice drawers! Drawers have always been an issue for me. One tip: If you store your sharpies point-side down instead of point-side up like you have them, they will last much longer. Just spray paint the other ends so you know what color they are.

[@aerobyrdable]

Thanks for this tip. I'm making a similar one.

[@jeric_synergy8581]

It's true. I fought it, because I like to see the cap color, but there's no doubt they last MUCH longer cap/point down.

[@ddd228]

@@jeric_synergy8581 Try colored tape on the ends.

[@zachmedeiros4163]

One thing I love about Adam’s shop is you can tell he really uses it. It’s not a super clean, bright aesthetic thing. I tore my shop apart about a year or so ago to rewire the whole thing (previous electrical work was a nightmare and I couldn’t stand it). Everything sat on top of the workbenches all this time or in boxes and as I began to put things back I found much better ways to place things as I typically need them. I love it!

[@phototristan]

As someone who used to work in a machine shop, I always really enjoy seeing Adam's shop.

[@kurtbogle2973]

I'm a retired sheetmetal worker. I know lots about working sheetmetal. My hobby is blade making, when I look at your projects their multi trade multi skill. You must have a whole box full of engineering degrees. I can only wish I had your across the board knowledge. You rock!

[@kennethwilliamson3712]

At 10:16, not a brayer but a j-roller. A brayer is used to apply ink to printing plates (think linoleum prints). A J-roller is used to adhere formica to its substrate. The extra long handle is so you can use it two-handed and get some real leverage. That's also why the roller width is half that of a brayer.

[@E5Bobby]

I like his design a lot. One thing I did notice, however is that it was a bit wobbly. I think some gussets in the corners would stiffen it up a bit. Not that it's meant to be manhandled but just in case it tried to roll over something that stopped the wheel(s) it'd be a shame to tweak it beyond it's stress point and have it break apart. Well done, Adam!

[@stevesanders91]

You should spray glue sandpaper to the wood frame . Like 60 grit down low , and like 120 grit up high. So you always have a quick flat sanding block handy . Just a suggestion . that will look cooler too btw .

[@s4n714g000]

This man's head is going at 5000 rpm He's pretty awesome.

[@kylemccarter4211]

Id have to agree

[@andymorin9163]

that ADHD haha, love it! I have it too and I appreciate him speaking at a speed I can understand and not too slow. of course people are different and there's a need for both :)

[@aaron4820]

I like how Adam's made this amazingly well thought through Christmas tree of tools where everything is categorized perfectly and easily accessible, then shows a plastic fork amongst it...

[@RobKohr]

I'd bet that disposable plastic forks are used often by him. It is great to have a tool to get in and pick at something that will get gummed up and ruined that you can then throw away.

[@4a8d698f]

As a mobile locksmith with a small vehicle this is the kind of thinking that will make my life easier and my business more profitable. Thanks Adam.

[@MtnBadger]

Adam... I've spent 30+yrs as a technician and finally have found someone as tool obsessed... And generally obsessed (I wear my OCD flag with pride) as I. Congratulations and thanks! You've shown some of my tricks and a lot more. When I worked in a multi person shop and had to keep my stuff protected and safe from evil doers, drawers were the thing. Now that I'm in my private shop... F- DRAWERS!!!

[@panzerfaulst12345]

Adam, if you released blueprints of this I feel a lot of people would be interested in building their own examples, me included!

[@stonekoldk]

I'm am auto mechanic and I love those 12v makita impact drivers. one of my most used tools and they actually are pretty powerful

[@TheRealFOSFOR]

God Dammit Will! Let Adam speak!

[@Bruceskyy]

I've never seen an episode where Will hasn't just let the man talk. Norm is a bit better but he tends to do it too, but he's definitely way less awkward than Will too

[@lfpi07]

Agreed, we all came here to hear Adam talk, not the host.....

[@MrShinta786]

yea, let him say NAIPEX in stead of KNIPEX

[@zeppelin7752]

Haha, was about to comment this very thing. So annoying!

[@tor-ivarhassfjord]

Soo annoying 🤣

[@channah144]

They're so right about tools in boxes/drawers being lost. I am not much of a maker, and my workspace is just a garage, but all small hand tools are on a pegboard and larger tools on narrow shelves, so things aren't pushed behind. I can see everything and it is so much quicker!

[@lilmanjeeps]

WHHY does no one on this channel that is talking to Adam, just let him finish his thoughts? Constant interrupting and trying to finish his sentences. Just let the man talk. Ask a question, let him finish the answer.

[@kwaaaa]

Yes, a bit frustrating from an audience perspective. They just have bad social interaction skills, and honestly I'm surprised they're hosts. I have this issue to a small degree, but then again, I'd never accept a hosting position.

[@charlesgunzelman3323]

I feel like they know something we dont, and that Adam may be a long winded kind of person. They (including him) may be used to this and it's only frustrating for us. Surely it accelerates video editing time. Let's face it, nobody wants to be stuck editing video for longer than they need to when one can be working with Adam and his crew of awesome people.

[@dl950]

Sprint316 I kinda think they're trying to act like they know what he talking about, and trying to finish Adams thoughts to show Adam that they like the same things and have a knowledge of the same things Brown nosing lol

[@moosedrummer1]

Sprint316 they try to stand on his level. But fail. "Oh is that a rivet gun I see down there?" No dude it's not. Calm down.

[@wargreymon700]

Right !!!! I just resent started watching the show and I'm so happy that later this guy and the Asian guy doesn't show up anymore.

[@UchihaMindi]

Watching Adam nerd out is awesome, listening to him talk about his tools like a tool-otaku is GREAT

[@dpmakestuff]

[@demos235]

Tell me that I'm not the only one who gets a little thrill when Adam Savage uses the exact same tool as I do. I see several exact duplicates from my tool selection on that cart, and I LOVE it.

[@BlockFin]

I'd love to see a 1-day build of the next version of the custom tool stand.

[@ginoasci]

Just the excitement alone in this video shows how valuable having tools readily available and having to put them back in their places just as easily is worth having it set up on a roll of weight cart like it is. It makes you want to do more projects and be productive.

[@1IdeaAhead]

Use a wooden ladder, affix bottom brace to keep it open, drill some holes, good to go!

[@commonconservative7551]

awesome dude........i have a few old ladders to try that with....thinking outside the box......maybe use some slick plastic cutting board material on the bottom as skids instead of wheels......maybe less liable to tip over?

[@lazerusmfh]

I have done something very similar in my work trailer only a few months ago. I got sick and tired of pulling tools out, just to out them back in some drawer or box. Adam, you can also mount your drills and other power tools this way. I will share a picture of it and edit this post of the way I did it. It saves me so much time especially when I need to clean up after a project! Here is one last thing I absolutely love to do. I bought a lot of super strong neodymium magnets, and I use them to mount some of my smaller screwdriver, and nut driver bits that I often use. You could do this along the side, or back of your tool cart by cyano gluing the magnets to the wood. -Brad

[@JeremyAbles01]

lazerusmfh Can you post the pic?

[@lazerusmfh]

Yes, I'll try and do it in the next day or two. Sorry, have been slammed!

[@NathanNostaw]

Is dust settling on the tools an issue? I like the tool stands, but I have endless issues with dust and humidity causing rust on anything that sits uncovered for a week or more. I may come up with a covered version of the racks though.

[@boydcrowder6130]

I feel your pain. I work in a body shop.. My tools are in closed drawers and still get covered in dust. But no its not an issue at all... Just gets your hands/clothes dusty.. But if your in a dusty environment that shouldnt be an issue..

[@pcrengnr1]

@@geomod6850 I like to use drum liners for tarps. They're big and round. The tarps are open on the sides unless you take extra time to lash them tight. Then it's a pain to get them off. Yep drum liners that's the way to go. WD-40 is a good rust preventer. I use that on many of my tools. The downside is that it attracts dust.

[@Smokin07ram]

I have a small 8000 sq foot shop and we found the same thing. Drawers are a place for employees to hide sins...What we found was by assigning and color coding (spray painting) sets of tools in open racks it brings organization and accountability to specific departments. Now...with one look I can see if my tools are being looked after and being kept track of. I can also see what departments are stealing tools in both good and bad senses of the word. The biggest advantage is that the tool are at arms length...even a new employee can find what he needs. The only thing we do different is we can roll the tool assemblies into enclosures that have doors so at the end of every day everything goes back in place and the area is easy to keep clean...satisfies my neat freak. Also gives us more work space for large projects

[@petermoss5341]

Adam should of demonstrated how the fast dry glue works on Will's lips. It would of went to a 14 minute video to a 3 minute video.

[@chrismarshall4653]

Now I see that you have made it not an organization of your tools but a presentation of just the stuff you have real tool organization would lead you to the conclusion of what you need comes first and what you don't need goes over there

[@SouthMainAuto]

Super cool, great advice! Way to be efficient!

[@jmandesilva]

If Adam ever retires he should open up his shop as like a museum because I would pay to take a tour of it. His shop ideas are really inspiring and I always look forward to seeing what he has in mind.

[@Doug_R1]

I wonder what would happen if Adam did his absolute best on an Iron Man suit. Just going all out.

[@joshsjunk365]

You would have a real life iron man suit lol

[@joshsjunk365]

Good point, though Adam never disappoints!

[@cpkunlimited8558]

Welp, we found out xD

[@BIGGELATO]

not sure why im watching this (started checking trucks out lol) but i realized that Adam would be such a cool teacher and youd learn alot from him building something!

[@Rydia704]

Love these type of videos with Adam. Please keep them coming :)

[@vincentng3194]

Yes, I'm learning Alot from him compared to school... He f drawers, I say, f school shop class haha

[@kurtownsj00]

Those "handheld metal brake" pliers are readily available at Harbor Freight in the Welding section. And the sizes of CA glue he says are hard to find are really easy to find at a well-equipped, dedicated hobby or R/C shop. Us balsa-gluers go through the stuff like nobodies business (foam-safe CA too!) ps- for those looking for the CA-glue "kicker", it's often referred to as "Accelerator" or "insta-Set". Wanna make a quick holder that does a similar job if you have a mechanic's tool service cart? Buy 1"x1" aluminum square tubing and drill holes through it of various sizes for any and all things (great for organizing ratchet extensions and screwdrivers).

[@Grevlain]

Love it. This is like my grown-up MacGyver-fix channel.

[@SeattleRingHunter]

Absolutely, spent more time thinking about it than the actual construction and it shows. Amazing cart and a very LEAN design concept. LOVE IT!

[@Miles-mf9kg]

buddy just picks up on adams voice language and makes it look like he understands what hes talking about LOL

[@ryanmacewen511]

I love how excited Adam gets over obscure, but life saving tools. A man after my own heart. I can use something only once every 2-3 years, and still be absolutely ecstatic about it. I used my Rigid cordless jigsaw tonight, for 2 nibble cuts in plywood. Easily been 6 years since I used it last. Better example may be the Power Probe III. ;)

[@kace002pumpkinwizard]

Adam is like a kid in a candy store, he gets super excited when he talks about all his tools haha.

[@martybess996]

Adam you are a master builder. I can only dream. You for sure have a unlimited budget compare to the lay builder which is a big plus. Thanks for sharing. Love your channel !

[@jeffhamlin540]

The hand brake you talked about works great for snapping small sections on plastic after scoring.

[@ArsonHammockHanger]

I love those Makita drivers as well. I'm a firefighter, and things around the firehouse are contantly breaking (because we are big, dumb animals). I keep a tool bag in my car with those small drivers and they are AWESOME. My fellow firefighters have duplicated the setup after using them.

[@INUN0TAISHO]

I need a tool rack like this!! I do miniature work and leather work. The sheer number of small hand tools I have is nuts. As an artist, a tabletop version could hold pencils, brushes, calligraphy tools, drafting tools, paints, inks, and so much more. Adam, they say "find a niche and fill it", well I'd rather clean out my niches and rack them up where I can find them! Please consider either marketing this rack with some options, or tell me where to get some diagrams! Please!

[@SardiPax]

Adam, you ought to keep your CA Glue in a fridge. I do and it lasts 12 to 24 months at least.

[@Brobolio]

Amazing work!! I may be a little late to the party but I have found that my ca accelerator should be stored as far away from the ca glue to avoid gelling inside the bottles. Great ideas for the tools!!! Saludos.

[@ColinRichardson]

How could you not have said "It wasn't a Permanent Marker"

[@LordAtrocities]

Adam reminds me of my grandfather. He used to do these sorts of cool things for his shops. I am so happy that there are people out there that won't let the talent of creation die. You should see some of the things my Dad has made just because he needed it. He never buy's specialized tools, he makes them. :D

[@Ranger7Studios]

Hey Adam, Any chance I could get the measurements or design plans for that tool rack? I would love to get rid of my draws.

[@boydcrowder6130]

take a damn screen shot and use some common sense!!!!

[@allanmitchell3336]

I was searching the comments for a plan and feel like this comment was directed at me. Heh. I'm going to do just that now. I liked someone else's idea to make the top removable.

[@bigwoz78]

Adam, that cart rocks. Very well thought out and executed

[@M3iscool]

1:44 - Will, trying to sound like he knows more than jack shit, and fails, whilst interrupting Adam's train of thought. Typical.

[@spoofer20]

I have a lot of experience with superglue, the thing that makes it set faster is water, the humidity in the air sets the glue which is also why it doesn't harden in the bottle because its filled with an inert gas that has no moisture in it. You could literally use a bottle of water and spray to make it set faster.

[@kenball1980]

absolutely love it. definitely making one

[@MegaMiniben]

This is my favorite video on KZbin. I have watched it like 6 times

[@jg393]

If Adam wasn’t so interesting and inspiring, I would skip every video this guy is in!

[@johnwayne2103]

I agree with the crazy glue. I have had like a 4 oz bottle for like 15 years but I keep it in the refrigerator. Still works when I need to use it.

[@vsniney]

[@KettleRiseRanch]

Even just basic measurements would be great! I am going to make one for sure.

[@nzlemming]

+Brian Hiatt This is why we learned algebra in school, people.

[@Chorizosabroso]

+nzlemming judging by the video and taking adam's height into account, the stand is 12 feet high.

[@FairlaneFox]

if Adam makes another stand much like his "Pliers" stand, i REALLY would like to see that as a "one day build". i would love to be able to make something like this. i might not use it for pliers but in a shop (both automechanic and woodworking) it would be very useful. if not just for open, convenient storage, making a roll-around for "in progress" jobs, rather than digging through the tool cluttered cart for that ONE screwdriver you had 15 minutes ago.

[@TimCalvin]

Does the color balance seem off to anyone else?

[@ritualpenguin]

Tim Calvin Perhaps the white balance couldn't cope with two pale ginger guys wearing blueish clothes.

[@CreatureOTNight]

Tim Calvin Color grading seems to be the issue. As the camera records in S or V log which is a flat profile. Possibly a rush job to produce more content.

[@JasonNolanIreland]

Looks like the main cam is an ungraded (or badly graded) sony and the b cam is a canon. It doesn't cut well and is distracting! Pity as it's a good video all the same.

[@fastenbulbous]

1:07 That bright metal tool in the middle with the round tip is called a double-action liston bone cutter. It's a surgical instrument used for cutting small bones like metatarsals or metacarpals (toes and fingers and such). Probably costs around $300.

More like $24 on eBay these days.

[@TwoCraZyEyes0]

Dude Adam you need to patent that thing and sell it.

[@RobJeffrey]

Mr_NarwhaL If someone has that many tools but isn't capable of building that stand themselves then they should give away their tools :)

[@mexkato]

Rob Jeffrey Yeah but an aluminium or plastic industrial quality one would be cool.

[@TwoCraZyEyes0]

Rob Jeffrey hey you get outta here with your logic! Nah jk, but I'm sure there would be some mechanics or whatever that haven't thought about this, and would want one.

[@TwoCraZyEyes0]

[@LordDragox412]

Rob Jeffrey "There tools"? Where tools? I don't get it. If someone isn't capable of not making a mistake in their sentence, then they should give away all of their keyboards. I could use a new one... >:P

[@BriantWoodworks]

Great solution. Worse than drawers is the top compartment of a tool stack. The part with the lid. With drawers, they can only hold so much before they won't shut but that top compartment become a mountain of hand tools so the lid won't close and then it gets bad enough the tools start filling off the pile on to the floor. Lol. I will definitely be considering a tool cart like this for the shop.

This reminds me of something I built, just a few days ago. My dust collection consisted of a shopvac and a separate collector, both on casters.

I call it my "Turbo Tower of Power".

[@MrHws5mp]

Doesn't matter what tool storage system I have, I put something down on my modelling bench and it frickin' teleports as soon as I take my eyes off it.

[@christopherwellnitz7460]

I bought a full set of ethicon endosurgery tools for $10@swap meet; the locking titanium truly needle nosed pliers are very handy and surprisingly complicated with their multilink jaws- fits easily down drinking straws with jaws shut, but shafts don't flex whatsoever

[@christopherwellnitz7460]

Abe Lincoln s working on boat wiring and plumbing upgrades, i found usb borescopes, crochet hooks that could be rebent (not aluminum or plastic) and those crescent extended needle noses( after some grinding) worked better for the amount of grip I needed with 5200 slopped upon wires and fasteners. Also, buy cheap bolt cutters and grinder the jaws into whatever esoteric bank breaking tool you need, like a crimper. They all will either sink some day or rust up anyways and making new tools periodically makes the job more fun. Get a vacuum with a long bendable snout.and put a course filter net in between it and vac hose to grab non magnetic boat fasteners that fall and sawdust extraction. Marinade injectors help epoxy application.

[@jesusjim1169]

Loved Mythbusters...But Don't lie, Adam...That, is a brand new set of tools, on a brand new box frame. You didn't make it, nor has it ever been used. You might have made one, yourself, in the past...but it would never look like that, within a days of working with it. I get it, though...You got the money to be able to make the video with brand new stuff...and you actually earned it. So...I digress. Hope you enjoy working with the availability of your craftsmanship, with the ease you've earned over the years. Hope to find the comfort like that someday, myself. Keep on building, my man...You were one of those who got my ass into the free-handing building of things idea in the first place.

[@emmitstewart1921]

Drawers are not a place where tools go to die. No tool, no matter how old or sick, goes willingly into a drawer. Drawers are a place where tools are thrown to experience a new level of pain as they are slowly digested over a thousand years.

Growing up building model rockets, i love the smell of what yall call "the kicker". Almost as much as i love the smell of pvc glue primer. will have to try to baking soda next time im putting together a model.

This thing is so awesome. I watched this video before, but since I started working as a mechanic I appreciate it so much more. Only problem is you can't lock it, I hope a company makes a commercial version that has some kind of locking panels

Knipex makes some awesome pliers. Use them in a professional truck shop daily. Medical tools are surprisingly useful in the automotive industry too.
