Organising a Tool Wall

I have a lot of power tools, some corded which I keep in cupboards and my battery ones, which always seem to end up left on the side or workbench.

I seem to spend a lot of my time looking for a tool I have just put down

To be more efficient I thought that I would wall mount them

This is not exactly fine cabinet making, more a simple rustic solution to a problem

Supplies

The Power tools (Drill,Driver,Jigsaw)

Drills

Holesaw

Screws

Mitre Saw

Step 1: The Space and Materials

I have a blank space on my shed wall and all these battery tools, a quick rummage in the recycled woodpile yielded a couple of 6 x 3/4 boards (rescued from a dismantled packing case)

Step 2: Circular Saw

Using the Mitre Saw I cut a length of board long the same length as my Circular Saw.

I then marked the location of the blade and guard and cut a slot by drilling the ends then cutting out with the Jigsaw.

I then cut a back and end from the board and attached with screws

Step 3: Jigsaw

Next I cut a length of board same as the Jigsaw, drilled a hole for the blade and put on the back and side plus a retainer to keep ti steady as it's a bit top heavy

Step 4: Reciprocating Saw

For the reciprocating Saw cut a locating slot in the end board as shown

Step 5: Angle Grinder

Using the Jigsaw I cut a large circular hole to allow the grinding disk and guard to fit through

Step 6: Drill and Driver

For the Drill and Driver I cut a slot in the baseplate for the handle to sit in and a hole in the end plate with a holesaw/drill to accept the chuck

Step 7: Mounting

On completion all the holders were attached to the shed wall
