Making tool holders to go on the wall in my big garage workshop. (tired of tools lying around the workbench)

[@learnerlearns]

really helpful! THANK YOU!

[@ThePilotPenguin1]

the amount of free space in the drawers must be huge in the center area of the panel on the wall maybe a hand drill shelf you know a shelf for the bigger items

[@birkswensen3890]

The best video so far this year!! soon finished with the 3D pantograph... Birk swensen (Norway)

[@PeterAgostiniJdcap26]

love the use of rough cut wood . T.U Cheers

[@MichaelMerrifield]

The Pilot Penguin Maybe some punctuation?

[@robbrown6495]

Enjoyed the video. Functional without going overboard. As someone who is borderline OCD I admire your ability to line things up by eye and drill holes without worrying if they are half a degree out Most of all I love your total lack of respect for the health and safety nanny state. And you still have all your fingers!

[@familiegamm32]

Very nice, but take care of your fingers!!!

[@SterlingsWoodcrafts]

Nice set up, Did you see Chris Pine Hammer shelf, would fit in perfect

[@zoffinger]

Man! You make me feel lazy! Forget the woodworking, I mean all the time it takes to make videos! Kudos on all your efforts, Matt. (sorry for the informality, I just feel like I know you, seeing how I watch your stuff so often!)

[@mrmrlee]

I just use magnetic strip tool holders. Simple and versatile, can hold screwdrivers, wrenches, shears etc.

[@hoold01]

Matthias Wandel - Thinking, so I don't have to.

[@truebluekit]

True.

[@Atoran95]

Gareth Martin I'm still thinking how can triangle be square

[@samuelbhend2521]

1:10 is an ancient wisdom of carpentry: "a hammered in screw always holds better than a screwed in nail" :)

[@AbuSamiQ]

Lol, this deserves more likes

[@paulodeoliveira3368]

One of the signs of the apocalypse: the Wandel pocket hold jig. Just saying.

[@plumbersteve]

Do you have a tool holder for your level? Oh wait...you don't seem to have a level. XD

[@neelode]

He uses a water level: a length of plastic tubing with colored water in it, and a ring of color around each end. Put the rings next to each other and fill the tube with the colored water until the water comes up to the lines. Put one end somewhere, and fix it there (or have your wife hold it, if you have one of those tools), and then when the water at the other end matches the line on the tube both lines are at the same height. Awkward, but it works, and makes your wife feel wanted and useful and all sorts of good things like that. DO NOT SHOW THIS POST TO YOUR WIFE, or your name is mud... Don't worry about me my name is already mud.

[@hulkman7141]

lol

Steve Gardnerxhcjeucjgdgvfhnruvf

[@loadi2865]

you dont need a level if you have 2 eyes and a good sense of balance ..you can throw the level; in the garbage...

[@vistron888]

The only issue with leaving pliers hanging on that rod is that when you go to pick them up quickly you can end up pinching your fingers as the arms close. Happens to me anyway.

[@LutherBuilds]

Thank you so much for this video, Matthias! This is a very timely video for me, since I have been debating on whether to use some pegboard that I already have for my tools or homemade hangers and hooks. You just inspired me to not use pegboard. Now I just have to find a good use for all the pegboard that I have. Maybe a downdraft table.

[@rustythevibeguy]

I like that you are not overly "fussy" about things that really don't matter. Much of what you do here could be easily adapted to a pegboard system (for those who already have it installed) by using plastic drywall inserts in the holes and then screwing the 'holders' shown here to the pegboard,

[@matthiaswandel]

+RustyCas Or I could just screw it on between the holes. In which case, a pegboard with no holes would actually be better, and if it were plywood with no holes, that would be even better. Which, coincidentally, is what I actually used.

[@TheHarryroks]

Matthias how thick is the plywood?

[@stk1975]

I am not a carpenter and never tried it before but this guy makes it fun and easy, he must love what he is doing.

[@timbbennett9563]

Matthias is using pocket holes?!? Someone check the weather report for hell. ;-) Great video as always.

[@matthiaswandel]

***** It's been a cold winter in Ontario!

[@Lalaland.001]

Matthias Wandel did you move all your gear here, or do you still have the workshop at home ?

[@plenished]

Matthias Wandel didn't use a Kreg jig though, great technique.

[@38911bytefree]

But he didnt use glue

[@wjphillip]

Pocket hole / toe nailing

[@ScrapwoodCity]

Neat, I love those super fast rough projects!

[@therealpanse]

*gasp* Pocket hole without glue.... AND A POCKET HOLE! (I know the shelves don't need to be that strong). I'm impressed that they are all level. or did you use a water level off camera? Greetings from Germany

[@matthiaswandel]

therealpanse Used a level off camera, had a pencil mark for where they need to go.

[@09tchad]

I happened onto Matthias Wandel's videos last night while searching for some tool holder ideas on You Tube. What an incredible resource! He's a very talented, creative woodworking genius. Thank you so much for sharing your woodworking endeavors.

[@athiker7209]

Great ideas, when I get finished with my wall, I think I'll steal some of these ideas. It looks much better than peg board.

[@tbotlik]

Nice! :) I am curious who disliked this video and why....

[@yourmama9190]

AOC

[@jasonsgroovemachine]

That walking drill press of yours makes me anxious, and things don't usually make me anxious. lol

[@madeiraislander]

what would people do without machines :C lol

[@khaledh9410]

Pretty much nothing, I always say that 👍

[@tomastruksa9312]

Matthias, what will you do with such a big workshop? ...will you build a Viking sailboat or set up a "university" for woodworking?..... Good videos, watching each Friday. Regards, Tom, Czech rep.

[@omightyyoda]

how thick is the plywood on your wall? Thanks for the vid, it has some very nice, quick ideas!!

[@matthiaswandel]

+Jl Cuak Just 1/2"

[@omightyyoda]

+Matthias Wandel thanks!

[@BruceSchaller]

I can't tell you how much I appreciate that you work using very straightforward techniques in clever ways. Other woodworking channels discuss how to support the woodworking industry. You discuss woodworking.

[@احمداکرمی-د6ط]

❤

[@jbb5470]

Great! Really enjoyed the video. You gave me several good ideas. Thank you

[@MrWFCJR]

Did you say "pocket hole" - oh my!

[@ericstrauss9365]

Pocket holes in their place and time.

[@WyldeWoodworks]

I had a key that used to fall out of my old contractors saw so often it finally broke so I had to trip the safety mechanism inside with a screwdriver to get it to work. That ended up breaking it entirely so I hardwired it to the plug. I didn't have to money to buy a new one and it wasn't that good of a saw anyway. I wish I had thought of putting a screw in it.

[@WoodenCreationz]

No Level!!! Who are you Chuck Norris? Chuck Norris wouldn't use a guide block for a pocket hole though. Chuck Norris would have used his hand!

[@dandetmer9210]

I did what u did about 20 months ago and it made a huge difference. I can see and grab tools easily. Before using pegboard I had to move tools to get to the tool. Another way is French cleet so u can move individual holders if need arises. Good skills I like your simple ways of making holders look up scale. I really like my pliers holder where bbn I have them from small to large instead of a drawer and had to shuffle stuff to find what I wanted. Have a friend retiring and building a shop and hope he sees these tool holders. With a new blank shop a guy could really lay stuff out to make life easier

[@MarcosyoutubeCorretorDeImoveis]

show parabens muito bom

[@rebeccamckenzie5037]

These were great. I needed something I could handle making w/o a lot if big machinery & even tho u have more machines than I do. I think I can make these work. I do need to figure out how to make a drill holder (&bits) but I think i can do it. Thank you

[@ГянджаТойс]

Making shelf for drills is WRONG. (IDK, maybe you already understood your mistake and fix it.) One awkward movement - and all drills fly all over workplace. You need at least rubber band to prevent falling of drills' holders.

[@ADILSONDAXJ6]

Show de bola maravilhoso já vou deixando aquele mega joinha

[@romeowhiskey1146]

Looks like several GLUGED UP solutions...none of which probably won't be replaced within the year. Complete waste of time watching this.

[@urgamecshk]

I love how precise matthias is, then he goes "should be....THIS far away" and just eyeballs some pretty cool looking mounts.

[@robertfranks3934]

Julius Jahn he measured them before it just didn't show because did you see how level they were

[@ZHFabrications]

Excellent! I made mine out of steel a while back before I got into woodworking.

[@erngtime]

Did you say "Pocket Hole" ? !! Nice Job Matthias. I like simple home made solutions like these tool holders. Don Weber

[@alexpettigrew8971]

Nice holders. I know some like everything hidden, but I like to see my tools. :)

[@matthiaswandel]

Alex Pettigrew Thee took cabinets on the walls that open - people always leave them open anyway.

[@marksoberay2318]

After 25 years in business I have come up with a conclusion I don't like drawers or pegboards or any kind of hanging system for small tools. Here's why how many projects do you have that are on the workbench? Here's the solution it's so simple, Go get a bunch of tool belts hang them in front of your bench with some simple hooks that's it. Then if you have a job at your bench it's in the ideal position to grab the tool if it somewhere else you grab the bag and go.

[@BeasleyStreet]

Another video where someone thinks they don't need guards and riving knives on their rip saw,there for a reason, have a look at saw accidents....you'll soon put them back,I'm fed up with people who think it won't happen to me....

[@MrCat-fy7bz]

Have you considered making a bunch of small hexagons instead of using those little cups. I imagine it would save a little space and it could adjust to different spaces because, you're using a bunch of tiny hexagons that you could shift around and whatnot.

[@AndreaArzensek]

If you don't use glue on that pocket hole joint, the chisel holder might snap off and cut off your fingers...later it will be, I told you :D

[@corbywilson3553]

The speed in which you accurately guesstimate the distances and spacing needed is extremely impressive and just a little disheartening.

[@amwartwork]

ive got a 1 inch thick ply shelves in my shed. i drill. holes on the facing edge and put my common drill bits and screw driver bits in the holes. also if u have any old laptop. hardrives or laptops. you will find somw very small and very strong magnets in them. for holding metallic tools up

[@bassamalsayed2104]

رائع جدا،اعجبني كثيرا الشرح المفيد والمختصر وخاصة تسريع الفيديو في اماكن قد تسبب الملل. شكرا جزيلا لك

[@DillysADV]

Subbed, a lot of good ideas here.. I just started using pegboard but I could apply a lot of these to it.. thanks!

[@Allright4447]

E' formidabile, BRAVISSIMO. Un'Idea GENIALE.

[@WesHamstra]

Your drawers look like mine! I need to hang them up aswell. great video

[@mailaloomy4219]

Mine works too. I used the Woodglut plans and performed it without any problems.

[@arlingtontrains7]

Another great video matthias! :) love all your creations! May I suggest adding a ledge to the 2 ends of the shelf you made? just sayn... all up to you :) keep up the great work and keep the videos coming!!! P.S. wish I had your fantastic skill! :)

[@apachecou]

great solution for the pliers!!.. your video it's very helpful!..

[@AAAyyyGGG]

2:06 - nice to see you finished drilling BEFORE the drill press went on the floor! Why not clamp it or fix it somehow? Better than it falling and breaking something... :-/ 3:51 - love that pocket hole technique - I was always thinking to get a jig but for two-holes-a-year it wasn't worth it!

[@MrRichot]

Great stuff Mathias and good little tips. However with all that wall space I would have placed chisels etc at least a couple of feet higher giving you more space AND safety. Cheers Happy days

[@stanwest3529]

why don't you buy a sheet of metal and make a riving knife for your table saw ...or even fit a splitter

[@selsteve]

don't listen to them pocket holes are ok for some applications , as are NAILS ,

[@deliogumagda3848]

If I get rich, i will do the same on my tools. For now I stick for my bamboo wall heheh😊😊😊

[@MaximizNSK]

Заебатый у тебя электроинструмент. Я б с таким инструментом дофига чего наделал

[@Davidxcat]

I don't work with wood or anything I just realy enjoy watching your videos Matthias. You are very creative. Good job again.

[@ricardomorais1906]

Great Job! Where can i buy that yellow file? 00:06 There is any online store? Thanks

[@victorc1257]

very nice and professional, but seems too much job because of tools holders...

[@HB-yq8gy]

Thank you for your method seem easier than doing the French cleats?

[@btd2516]

No French cleats? You also need a cell phone holder and more important- a coffee mug holder!

[@joshportelli]

Mathias is a master, so much efficiency of storage space, materials, and crazy quality in everything you do. Keep up the great work!

[@OllyParryJones]

Very tidy. I think one of the worst things I ever did was to put drawers under my workbench. If you have the wall space though, yours is the way to go!

[@henrikmikaelkristensen4784]

I am about to put drawers under my workbench. Can you explain why that was a problem for you?

[@OllyParryJones]

Henrik Mikael Kristensen Over time, my drawers became very much like Matthias' at the start of this video - jam-packed with everything; very hard and frustrating to find the tool you actually want. I would now always favour a dedicated storage system, where every item has its own place. Instead of making a space that will take anything and everything! But it depends on what you're looking to do and also what wall space you have free.

[@henrikmikaelkristensen4784]

Olly Parry-Jones: Thanks very much. I might change my mind on it and go with some more dedicated wall storage.

[@deezynar]

Henrik Mikael Kristensen Drawers under workbenches can also be a problem if you clamp something in the vise, then realize the tool you need is in a drawer that's blocked by the item in the vise. The only things I keep under my bench are bench hooks, shooting boards, and hold fasts. They're stored on simple, open shelves.

[@henrikmikaelkristensen4784]

deezynar That is very useful information, thanks. I did not consider those issues.

[@chrisfinn4172]

My favourite KZbin channel. Always great work sir .

[@ch3ckm4te480]

Hehe Your drill press was walking all over the place it was about the fall of the bench wtf

[@georgemalkin6546]

Excellent job , but since you seem to use power tools, when do you use all those hand tools?

[@MikeAndLaurenTV]

Perfect timing! I'm about to start building my own tool holders next week.

[@ВладимирКарелин-п5о]

Доброго времени суток! А как гаечные ключи закрепил на стену?

[@stevenhardy2898]

Next should be a proper pencil holder with optional sharpener.

[@tooljunkie555]

Putting the drill press to work! I really like the square holder. Immsick of the one i have/use.. just like a clamp rack..(typical) Im definitely going to make a few of those tonight when im in my shop. Hey thanks for the idea (s)

[@bruce7595]

One other improvements I would is add a back splash at top of work bench to prevent tools from going between wall and the bench. Like all these ideas. Sometimes it seems more time is spent looking for a tool than actually doing the job.

[@samishadaydeh7462]

Why Dont u have a ruler?? u have all this but no ordaniry ruler!?!??!

[@SCWD_US]

I just watched you build the exact same setup I did for my wall. Only two and a half years after. I guess great minds think alike.

[@VV-bq2sv]

good work like and subscribe to your youtube video channel

[@Sceme1991]

Seeing how precise and neat you seem to be, I find it strange you didn't use bubble level when attaching those holders :P

[@threadthathasnoend1212]

why did you decide to not use a french cleat system?

[@matthiaswandel]

ThreadThatHas NoEnd Covered that earlier. It's a lot of work, traps dust, and ugly. Even if I move the tools around, the extra screw holes won't be as ugly as french cleats, and I have a lot more flexibility.

[@threadthathasnoend1212]

ah ok

[@dandetmer9210]

A lip support 4 your pliers holder rail. Cool. I had a lot of pliers so I used .25 steel rod

[@manoelribeiro3922]

wonderful

[@omarnasser3156]

You are amazing

[@peterstewart9376]

Great job Matthias! Really inspires me to get out in my shop and do some spring cleaning :)

[@FunkmeisterArts]

Pretty new to your channel and really enjoying the walk down memory lane. I don't do much wood work now a days. I do have a question concerning the Band Saw. Do you weld your own blades? I used to get blade stock in 250 foot rolls and weld my own. Also: Did you have much of a problem leveling your band saw table i.e. 90* @ teeth and side of blade? I had to have my Craftsman table machined down.

[@matthiaswandel]

FunkmeisterArts I don't weld my own blades.The table - it has an adjustment screw for the 90 degree stop.

[@FunkmeisterArts]

Matthias Wandel Thanks for the quick answer. I could never get my table to line up when blade tracked on the tires correctly even though it too had the stop screw on table. Keep up the great work.

[@josegeovanealvesdesouzageovane]
