Wall tool holders for mallets and hand planes

[@wakefieldallan]

I watched this years ago and now that I've got a 2 car garage shop I used this style without thinking where I saw it. Plywood with tool holders screwed into it, no cleat system or peg board baloney... and now my projects get done so fast cause I'm never looking for a tool. They're all within reach and I couldn't be happier. Thanks for producing these videos over the years. You've helped me more than I can put into words.

[@JonScottSmith]

I think your tool holders are some of your most beautiful work actually. The way you arrange them on the wall is very pleasing to the eye as well. It's all so perfectly ordered. For someone who is borderline obsessive about organization, this is pure art.

Last night I watched a video showing how to make a $22,000 desk. Every tool, lathe, cnc, drum sander, routers, jointer, planner, and locking systems that cost more than my job saw. Now it's Matthias' turn. The band saw skill was a winner. The use of the razor knife to chamfer the screwdriver/chisel holes in scrap wood. No Woodpecker, no Festool, just skill and ingenuity using his well honed techniques, unique to Mr. Wandel. I see why he gets views in the millions while $22,000 desks get less than half that. This isn't a competition. $22K prods those on the cusp of going professional to see whats in store for the high end production shop, than IMO, is superb. His furniture will last for decades if not centuries. But I believe that there are more like me. The DIY one car garage woodworker making sure that we don't get fat watching television and eating fried pork skins. Mr Wandel has saved my hundreds of doors in tools I don't need to buy. Matthias (my grandfather's name, but only 1 t) has shown techniques that are as clever and simple to duplicate. This will up my skills and the quality of my end products without spending a ton of money. Gotta run, have to cancel that 3D printer I have on order.

[@mac243877]

Quality work many thanks I'm not a carpenter and after 40 yrs as a mechanic I enjoy working with wood great tips

[@nicolycrispi3134]

Hey, Matthias, thank you for putting subtitles on your videos, it makes them accessible for the hearing impaired. Thank you!

[@justwondering5540]

Tool boards make the day go a lot better ! Nice job on the plane holder. I was glad I got to talk with you on the Nicks live feed show .

[@bastianena]

Great work Matthias. You don't miss one detail. I'm always checkin to see your latest gizmos. From a dedicated viewer, more vids!

[@ChristopherDemetrick]

As a woodworker there is something about custom making holders for your tools. You are making something that is utilitarian but you can make it as minimal or elaborate as you like. Its very rewarding working "on" the shop and not just "in" the shop.

[@TheNebulon]

Sometimes I feel like persons like Matthias (and myself on a smaller scale) ONLY really make things "for" the shop. It's just too fun.

[@dwightstewart7181]

Christopher Demetrick Well, I’m a fairly busy woodworker (woodworking & other activities), so I just don’t have the time for that. I use a pegboard system. Tools can be added in mere seconds and whole areas rearranged to accommodate in minutes. My creativity is reserved for what is done with those tools.

[@Eggy1873]

Seen many a woodworking videos but this man is the most intelligent and smartest of the lot..

[@rmcdaniel423]

Custom holders, affixed as-needed to a plywood wall. No rails or cleats to limit options in positioning. So simple. So versatile.

[@KennethColeStatenIsland]

Matthias you are better than watching TV. Thanks.

[@sebastienlouchart2270]

Thank you Matthias for being so inspirational.

[@Spacepod7]

Sliding the planes into those holders was so satisfying to watch😮👾 love your work bro

[@middleagebloke]

As always, beautifully produced video. Inspired me to do the same with a 12mm plywood sheet screwed to the gyprock wall - through to the studs. Pleasantly surprised to see pocket-hole jig used on one of the shelves. Great work, Matthias.

[@atlas227428]

Thank you so much Matthias! I'm learning alot from your wallhanging video. Learned more about my bandsaw having a push guide that i didn't think it had, which enabled me to setup my new blade better than i've been doing it, and how to put a bevel on a small board when my blade tilts to the left instead of the right LOL. This is a great video for us beginners. Much appreciated....really enjoy your channel !!!

[@peterstewart9376]

Those are all great individual projects but those hand plane holders are a true work of art lol :) i was shocked when you ran them through the table saw but they look great :) It's fun to see how your big garage workshop is coming along thanks, Peter

[@plunder1956]

Really nice ideas. The improv levelling idea made me smile. Your big workshop is looking great

[@aksmith68]

another great video. love watching you come up with little tricks for the different tools.

[@jasonjhorton]

I love those plane holders, especially the "tiny" finishing touches.

[@SawDustMakerRJM]

Can't wait to use some of these tool holders in my new shop. Great work Matthias!

[@tomdoe6399]

Thanks for giving me some ideas for filling the remaining space on my wall of tools. I especially like the holders for your planes.

[@MarkLindsayCNC]

So many cool ideas in this video, it's hard to pick out just one. Thanks, Matthias!

[@wickerkicker]

That plane holder is a great idea and seems like it would be a bit more fun to make then just a regular slope and stop. I want to make a hand tool cabinet at some stage to get all my stuff out from under the bench and dust and I think I'll do something similar. Thanks.

[@DemasShopforEverything]

I like the plane holder, gonna borrow that idea for my new wall storage

[@pocket83]

Great, but those plane holders should be lined with natural-fiber velvet to prevent blade damage. Also, a climate controlled box can limit exposure to moisture and harmful UV radiation, which both hasten primary planar degradation and quantum-warping of the sole.

[@intjonmiller]

Also consider displacing the oxygen with an inert gas, or simply pulling a constant vacuum in the box. :-D

[@AzureFlash]

pocket83 I keep my wood planes in 3M Fluorinert engineered liquid. It is specially designed to be chemically stable (so the blade won't corrode) and thermally conductive (to keep heat out of the blade to prevent warping due to thermal fatigue). It's designed to cool electronics, but at around 250$ per gallon, it is totally worth it to protect those precious, delicate tools!

[@intjonmiller]

Azure Flash That's true. If the internet has taught me anything it's that handplanes are more valuable than children.

[@matthiaswandel]

Azure Flash Right. Keep the planes safe in a seald box, and if you need to smooth something, just grab the belt sander :)

[@horsefuneral6542]

Doug Reed Have you considered the effects such fluid would have on the internal grammeters of the planes turbo encabulator?

[@McGinnsWoodShop]

How many good ideas can you fit into one video?! About this many!

[@scubart]

One of my favorite videos. Bored of yet another fence or sled.

[@BaltiWhiskeyHands]

my dude never misses with his helpful hints smh. excellent video.

[@tes767]

Hi Matthias, I agree with you. French Cleat walls look nice but they do not give any more functionality than your wall with tool holders and screws. My garage is the envy of many of my neighbors but I do not use French cleats. I like having tool outlines so a quick visual tells me that something is missing. If I spend 15 minutes looking for a tool I have lost 15 minutes of my life--I cannot get those 15 minutes back. I use long torx screws for most of my stuff--plus cabinet grade 3/4" plywood. My tools are on 2' x 4' panels so I can move them to the next garage and get set up quickly. Time is something I don't have a lot of. I used to have the same drill press as you, but then I burned it up once when I used a 1200W inverter to power it (an experiment). Keep up the good work, Matthias!

[@ZeedijkMike]

Very nice video. My ever lasting problem is to find my (electronics) tools in my own mess. So this weekend I'm going to design tool holders. Thanks for a very inspiring video.

[@EngelenTube87]

Super cool. I always wanted to make such wall too where all my tools are easy available hanging. Not yet made. But with this video gives me motivation to finally start on it aswell. But good that you made an example because the thinking about it made me not doing it. And I see now what I would do different / better. I think I'm going to hang the heavy tools at the button of the wall... And the lighter ones like screw drivers and drills.. more in the middle..

[@paulmann4446]

So glad I found your videos, exactly what I've been looking for as I've taken the plunge to completely redo my workshop organization along these same lines. I know it'll take awhile but I've already hung up the oak plywood and am ready to get started. Keep those videos coming, thanks.

[@TheEnergyball]

Loved this! Thank you for sharing. Was good to watch as you shared your rationale for the design. I found it elegant and inspiring as I prepare to revamp my workspace. Thanks again!

[@davidsonnier1690]

it seems like you have the best ideas for mounting tools

[@TheLittleGardenShedWorkshop]

Great job Matthias, the tool rack is starting to look really good, cheers Harry

[@raysaw]

These are great tool holders, but use caution on using them in a southern climate where humidity is much higher. I made similar holders years ago (not as nice though) and within months my tools developed rusty areas where they were in contact with the wood. I'm not sure if you could seal the wood perhaps to keep moisture problems at bay.

[@GalleryOfChameleon]

Brilliant solution for keeping that hammer from falling off of the tool holder!

[@wolvegreen]

Again much appreciated. Great mind, creativity and patience. I was inspired again. Thank you mr Wandel!

[@charleyandsarah]

Always love your videos. The tool wall is coming along nicely.

[@dav1099]

Good job on these much needed tool holders, going to seal a few of your ideas, and get some of my tools up too. keep up the good work & thanks for posting..

[@rtedcr]

You are very professional. I really appreciate it your time and sharing to us .

[@rhfabrication]

Nice job on the plane holders. I like the design.

[@AlFurtado]

Thanks Mathias I must say I love all your ideas but those plane holders are awesome I have to make myself a couple...... Great idea ...Thanks for sharing... Albert

[@sfosnot85]

Some Good Ideas. I noticed you had a problem with the plastic head of your clamps breaking too...I never thought to re-make that part out of wood.

[@RickJones222]

My favorite KZbin craftsman!

[@TheShavingWoodWorkshop]

A lot of great tricks and tips in these holders, thanks.

[@nicholasramirez2541]

Wow, this video is loaded with great storage/organization ideas, thanks for the video!

[@MrMetalclay]

Some great engineering, and now I see what you mean about trying not to build them all at once. I'm burnt out after 3!

[@WigWagWorkshop]

Amazing amount of tips, in these 2 videos. I really appreciate you sharing, saves me a ton of time.

[@valborchardt3596]

Gosh, you really made it look so nice. Thanks again

[@cartoon80s90s]

So many good ideas in this video. Thanks for making these videos. You are awesome.

Mi familia y yo te abrazamos con respeto y gracias, muchas gracias por compartir tu talento... Desde México ciudad, familia Pérez Gómez

[@nickpelov]

it's a joy watching all these instruments in their place on the wall. However I think the dial indicator mount is not as elegant as other tools. It's like you got bored of all these tool mounts and you said to yourself "That's all I can bare to make for the dial indicator"

[@johnbryce8267]

exactly the kind of setup ideas i was looking for. no pegboard... tyvm!!!

[@DreidMusicalX]

I'm doing my wall right now. Sadly I don;t have a ban saw yet and only 1 plane to go on my wall. hahaha! But I love your idea! Im gonna use it.

[@jeffstanley4593]

I just knew that large plane would snap those elegant rails. I should have known Matthias would think of that also and compensate with the screw stops.

[@Robertlavigne1]

Always be Knolling!! Love the look of that wall!

[@MasteringHow-To]

Great work! Very impressed.

[@importantname]

I'm getting older - put the heavier stuff down low, the lighter tools higher up. Is easier to put and retrieve, also less damage if something falls, and from engineering; the higher something the greater the force or strain on the back boards.

[@TheAnimystro]

The downward force is the same as the wueight of the object, which will only change by an incredibly small, negligable even to most science experiments amount with height

[@jej3451]

However, the torque on the wall about its axis along the floor is much greater if the heavy tools are mounted higher.

[@rotaryrevor4756]

Hey Matthias I am a kid woodworker and I have my own impact driver and drill and if you want to see my tool holders, look at my wall in my bedroom I even made a holder for my phone cords!

[@rotaryrevor4756]

And wood working is my obsession because of you and I am happy about it because wood working is really fun

[@rotaryrevor4756]

Even my brother asked me to drill a hole in the wall for a headphone holder

[@Working_Man]

I like what you done with the place. Nice Job.

[@jaxx751]

I think that your tool holders are quite practical. I'm sure you will revise them again! Just wanted to point out that you're storing your sharpie upside down.

[@JimBeshears]

Love the plane rails, I was wondering how to make holders for all my dad's old planes.

[@jaybig360]

Love your channel, you are so precise on everything you do 👍

[@jimbrown2604]

I can’t do most of this...but I can appreciate it that you can.

[@MeghanMowder]

Nicely done! I love well organized work places.

[@vaulimere]

Nice. Now you've got me wanting to play with making more tool holders :)

[@matthiaswandel]

More tool holders in my big workshop. Got the essentials hung now, but I'm sure I'll make more with time.

[@ThePilotPenguin1]

Matthias Wandel i love how tidy you are with all tour tools

[@PayneMaximus]

Matthias Wandel Great job, Matthias! I want to do the same thing in my garage (that's my "workshop" too). I've just repaired the wall in which I want to hang the tools, and I already have the plywood sheet to fix to the wall to make something like this. It sure looks very nice, but I do think those holders take a lot of work indeed!

[@RoboCNCnl]

Love the plane blocks.. smart to think off a blade recess Matthias Wandel !

[@olegvolodin1451]

Matthias Wandel Молодец !!!

[@TimRoyalPastortim]

Looks good! I use a slanted plane till because I have quite a few more hand planes (though your way has no limit I suppose), but a very similar setup for my other tools. I love what you said about not doing it all at once. Yes! Not only time consuming, but it seems like I need to live with my setup to know exactly what I want.

[@BryanCoombes]

Awesome video, I'm making all of these holders ASAP

[@rickywalden4206]

Very well thought out and looks like they will work nicely.

[@charlesxix]

I guess this is Sunday sorted out. Thanks for the video.😊

[@stefanopassiglia]

I hang my handplanes by their front tote. I use a long 12mm wooden dowel and hang them on it. Fast and easy.

[@myema5694]

I love the way your mind works!

[@ngqondidubula1402]

This guy is a super genius.

[@aleksanderspaqi8049]

I saw lots of videos about tool organizer and I can say this is one of the best Why is the best because all the wood he use its just a scrap wood not like others go buy a sheet of wood thats easy to work but can you make something from pieces of wood or wood that you dont need thank you for the video

[@kringles65]

Clever solutions for storage issues.

[@350FPS]

Amazing! You're very crafty :)

[@denconstutube]

You think of everything. You can make cutting a piece of wood interesting.

[@mauriciomarchantceledon4270]

buen trabajo. No hay como tener todo en su lugar y se ve mejor el taller donde uno se desempeña a diario. saludos Matthias desde chile.

[@WayneJohnsonZastil]

Great use for 3D printer for tool holders!

[@campbejouc]

beautiful execution on all these.

[@TheCapahuari]

Gracias por tus videos, no me canso de ver las maravillas que haces

[@CameronLienhart]

I especially like the plane holders

[@nyinfamous2k2]

an oscillating multi tool would have worked perfectly to remove the excess material for the plainer in seconds without having to go through the whole table saw bit. the sleeve for it did come out awesome.

[@superdau]

nyinfamous2k2 Would have been even easier with a router.

[@matthiaswandel]

superdau Neither of which I had at hand. But maybe even easier would have been a hand saw!

[@michaelturner5359]

nyinfamous2k2 how about a Dremel ?

[@M4rkpj]

Great job Matthias , you forgot place for cold beer .

[@vanguardau]

Thanks mate you've given me some good ideas.

[@wtimber]

Great job! Makes all my tool holders look like left over dry wall screws...

[@lewisdoherty7621]

I had to do a quick fix. I took a surplus plastic lattice and mounted it on four vertical 2x4s. The handles of pliers, scissoring type tools and clamps would slide into the lattice holes; and for the other items that would fall through to the other side or were too big for the lattice holes, I put hooks on the holes. So the lattice structure both functions as a holder for many tools directly and as a pegboard for hooks for tools it can't directly hold. You do great work. I just don't think I have the patience to do much of that. And my dexterity is poor.

[@harmonj3]

But....if the mallet is trying to fall off of the ledge, what are you using to cause all that banging?

[@matthiaswandel]

a hammer

[@harmonj3]

I was joking. Guess my jokes are so bad they don't translate well :)

[@dragonblee1]

Beautiful bit of work

[@driverharms]

Have to construct my Werkstatt new... I like your videos!

[@ndktube]

I have pegboard and hooks and the hooks don't like to stay in. I've tried gluing them in and using the little plastic braces without luck. This seems like a much better approach, but to do a little at a time as you say.

[@deezynar]

+ndktube I've had problems with pegboard hooks coming out too. I was so frustrated with it I threw mine away.

[@ericwright7643]

Many great tips! Thanks Matthias.

[@reecenielsen6235]

I love watching your videos ive watched them all probably twice haha
