Introduction: Organize Your Allen Wrenches.

About: I enjoy visiting the dump to look at, and take, all the free stuff people throw away. It's a lot of fun. I like Xbox live cus it's the best.

Are your Allen wrenches sadly laying around your work area? You can keep them together and organized using a 35mm film canister, easily obtainable if you've ever had pictures developed using a throw away camera.

Please keep in mind, This is a way to ORGANIZE your allen wrenches. In no way does this need to be stable, simply because there is no reason for it to be freestanding. It just keeps the allen wrenches in order and together.

Step 1: The Only Step.

This is all pretty simple so I'll do it all in one step.

Get your 35mm film canister. You've probably seen one, but if you don't know what it is, they are the small grey tubes with the black caps that hold film for disposable cameras.

Take any sharp object, maybe a pen, letter opener, screwdriver, drill with tiny bit, knife, Etc. Etc. and poke a small hole into the lid of the canister. Start the first hole somewhere near the side, and make holes in a circle around the lid. It's better explained by the picture.

After you've made the holes, take whichever size Allen wrench you're going to use for that hole and push it through. It should be slightly larger than the hole you made so it fits snug.

Do this for the other wrenches and you're done!!
