Inner tube Tool Roll

It is always a good idea to have some basic tools on hand or in your car. Not being a fan of a  heavy noisy toolbox in the back of my car, I made this easy to stow tool roll that won't let the tool scratch and hit against each other making a noise.

The Tool roll can also be attached to a bicycle or be used to store different objects such as n knife set or tent pegs.

Step 1 The Tools

Tool are what separates us for pre tool equipped cavemen, well that and computers, the  internet and everything else.

So in my basic tool I have included.
- 2 Metric open-end spanners sized 10 - 13 and 17 - 19
- Adjustable spanner (Mine's very old and made by Ford)
- 3 Screwdrivers (2 Flat and 1 Phillips)
- Simple Pliers
- Utility Knife and spare blade
- Cable Ties and about a meter long piece of steel wire.
- Lighter
- Permanent Marker.

clicked "like" and thumbs up!!
but wouldnt the tubes gets sticky over time?
How long do you think it will last??
It was a very good effort nonetheless

you can always spread a little bit of baby powder over the tubes before you make the tool holder as well as any time it starts to get sticky...also a good idea to powder up your tubes a little bit before you put new or patched tubes into tires and pump them up

Nice man. I needed something better to hold my tools in my car. You wouldn't happen to own an old Vw would you?

Maybe, Why are you asking.

[skabonner]

That looks like a haZet wrench, part of a stock Vw toolkit. Also with those tools you can disassemble most of a beetle. I drive a 67 beetle.

Well my brother owns a 1976 Beetle 1600s with the rounded windscreen. He doesn't have a toolkit. The wrench and the pliers with dull chrome finish came from a Mercedes-Benz toolkit since Mercedes-Benz name was forged into the wrench and are similar to the kit from a W124.

Thanks for the like, thumbs up and comment. A friend asked me the same but the way I see it is if I wipe down the tools after uses so that oil and grease doesn't transfer to the roll and if I keep it out of the sun, then it might last a lifetime. Just to add a thought the car tire tube seen in step 2 came from my Austin A35 and the tires and tubes where made in Southern Rhodesia and that was between somewhere between 1961 and 1979.
