My manly Martha stewart progress for the evening.  Need to pick up some larger grosgrain trim for the edges tomorrow.

I want them for the tool bags in my truck, tired of digging through wrenches.

I need to make something to hold all of my freaking sockets.. I thought about using some MDF and dowel rods and then a board on top to sandwhich them together.. dunno though.

Unlike wrench holders for me, they make a multitude of socket holders, ball bearing detent, steel spring clips, rotating, magnetic, etc, etc.

Yep, that absolutely sucks. I keep meaning to do something similar for the snowmobile box as everything gets shaken to shit if it isn't strapped in REALLY well. In the one sled everything is packed in slots in foam, but the other stuffed in bags and I'd rather just have them rolled and velcro tied.

yeah I used the spring clips but the 3/8" sockets I have are far too heavy to stay secured.

I've got 3/4" webbing and side release clips to latch the roll after I get edging on it.

That's cause the metal spring clips really, really, suck.  I'll take loose over those.  For deep toolbox drawers, the Hansen trays work well, the ones from Menards aren't to bad really, I don't use them much but I like them.

I use the Hansen's or a cheap version of them from Northern Tool. Not sure if they are branded. Only beef I have is that they don't have 32nd's so I am always fumbling. Of course I don't really need those sockets, but since I have them...

Maybe it'll be at the local hub on Saturday and you can go pick it up.

The shafts are sometimes too fat on the ones I have too. At least for generic-o sockets.

WTF do you work on that takes 32's?  I've got a couple 11/32 wrenches, but other than that not much.

I haven't had that problem.

 

I bought 10 socket rails last weekend, already all filled.

As I said, I don't need them but I have them so I need to store them somewhere. They are old. Like my grandpa old.

Put the new wheels on the 71, now it's looking like I want. Gonna drop it another couple inches though.

Now it's ready to work on the sounds. Fiber glassing pods time I guess. No sub, just a good full sounding 6.5 component set I think.
