perforated hardboard storage ideas

I've seen that photo of Francis' hammers before. It started a lot of comment on the other SS group. I know how it happens. I'm not certain how many 12mm and 14mm sockets and box and combo wrenches are in my auto tool chest from the days when I had 2 Toyota pickups and had to keep them running myself. Somehow I could never find one when I needed it and, there are several places where you need one for each end of the connection.
I suspect I may fall victim again with 50 tooth combo blades for the SS. It is hard, and expensive(about $35), to get them sharpened here. Plus the only guy who sharpens is in probably the most difficult to get to place in this town.

Thanks, folks.

Sorry, don't have plans anymore but here's a couple photos of the workshop on a wall as Mike (mikelst) described. The only difference between his and mine is - I have ¼" grooves rather than dadoes to hold the pegboard. The grooves are &#8540]5733[/ATTACH]

When I try it turns to regular gray.

make sure you retain the "[quotex=whomever]" and the "[/quotex]"

There MUST be a pair [quotex=...] at the beginning and a closing [/quotex]

If they are not both there, it will be displayed as 'normal' input.

I added the x(s) above to disable the quote function. Otherwise you would be seeing "

whomever wrote:" and the "

"

Let me add - If you accidentally delete one of the [quote] symbols. You can just type that symbol back into the quote and the selected part will appear in white. You need to have both the [ and the ] and the word 'quote'.

Two suggestions to modify the plan. One make the doors about 1/4 in smaller than they suggest. They are tight and when I had other errors in the case, they were tough to open. Secondly, I used some salvaged peg board that is 1/4 ( I think, but thicker that regular stuff) for all but one door. I ran out of it, so I got some thinner board for that door. The difference in the stiffness of the doors is very apparent. I have to keep lighter stuff on that one door.
If I could not find the thicker peg board, I would put some type of spacer glued to both the inside and outside peg board.

This is the one I did. Mine is only 5" deep, but it could have been 8" deep. Actually, I wish I would have made it deeper.

The plans are in the Shopnotes "Small Shop Solutions", which you can still buy. They different variations, smaller, etc.

Here is a free plan from WoodSmithShop.com. You could use three front panels to maximize storage.
