Tool Box Organization

[roaniecowpony]

You guys are sick. I am NEVER showing my wife how organized you are. She'd nag me to do the same. (I use the pile method of organization. Yes, I know where everything is...or ought to be. ;-) )

Pile-ers unite against organizers!

I call that the archeological method of organization. Tools used most recently on the surface. Rarely used tools require digging.

@Terrymo have you had the chance to use those long Allen sockets yet? I’m just curious on their durability, had those in my Amazon cart for a couple months now lol

I have not used them a lot but so far I have no complaints about anything made by Tekton. Tekton seems like what Craftsman used to be “back in the day” Good value for the buck.

I'd say even better than Craftsman, closer to Snap-On.

This past year I picked up a lot of Tekton tools, but one I use as much as their metric combo wrench set is their 3/8 Inch Drive x 6 Inch Flex Quick-Release Small Body Ratchet | TEKTON . It's built on a 1/4" drive 90 tooth ratchet frame. Yes, it can't take a lot of torque. Only 60 lbs/ft. But it's handy as hell. In this world where everyone pushes using a torque wrench, especially on drivelines and engines, it gets the most use of about any tool in my stuff to get a bolt set for a torque wrench or smaller fasteners. As Lee Iacocca said; "Get 1".

Has anyone used the Fleximounts steel garage cabinets yet? I use their ceiling mounted winch rack for the hardtop and quality was OK?

I've got three Keter plastic cabinets that are garbage, and most decent metal cabinets are at least 50% more.

EDIT: I pulled the trigger on three of the SC1B, if anyone is interested discount code EOM1509 takes another 15% off. $145 each after tax and shipping. Cheaper than plastic.
