I clicked, thinking.... I don't need another one of these, but I like this guy's videos... and dang it, I think I'm going to replace the one I already built with this style.. and closer to the door! You could sell ice to Eskimos!

So simple, always good to be reminded to "just do it"

I love shop organization videos. Makes my OCD me happy!

Use the package label that the driver bits came in to label the compartments.

If you want cleaner cuts on the Kaizen foam, heat the blade over a candle. A hot razor knife cuts the foam like butter.

Yes, I learned the hard way it melts with heat. Hot glue doesn't work on it. I made some custom inserts for my makita mbox drill + bits using scrap pieces (creality cr10s 3d printer came with this foam packaged) that weren't thick enough to fill the bottom. Hot glue to stick it together was a pain.

That was the best, quickest, way to separate a drawer organizer! 👍👍

Very cool!

Don't forget to throw in some desiccant packets in with your bits or one rusty one will infect them all (aircraft mechanic speaking with sadness)

At first I was like aw man he doesn't need all those little cross dividers, but in the end the fit of those bins was so satisfying. You right ...you were right

I love these organizational videos you make. Can't wait for the next one!

If you're trying to get hotglue to release (and peel off the excess) spray isopropyl rubbing alcohol on it. The hot glue will then easily release from just about anything.

Damn that look so cool. Gonna tackle that once I finish my next video, Great video!

Perfectionist by any chance? Love your videos and ideas. Thanks for sharing. Whenever I’m a bit bored I just go out in my shop and always come up with something I can improve. Your shop greatness logo reminds of Vince Lombardi’s saying of we will strive for perfection knowing full well we will never achieve perfection but we just might catch greatness in the process.

I’m also a rigid guy but recently got the Milwaukee installation 12v driver! Best ever u should invest man def

Just finished making some holders for my drills, never though about using PVC pipe -- great idea.

“Oh my God, I need that,” is how we end up buying stuff every single time we go into a hardware store. Fantastic video as always. The sound effects for the pop ups was especially snappy and fun. When it comes to tough driver bits, I have Bosch, DeWalt, and others but I found the longer double length Makita ones on discount at a store that had a big island filled with them. 88 cents for sets of two. They’re pretty tough and the length is a nice medium. Anything on sale is my favorite no matter the brand.

OK, I'll ask. Once you build the partitions section, why do you need the little plastic trays? Its not like its a box of screws that you might want to lift out. It's driver bits, that you need one of.

Thanks absolutely craicin, your like an artist at work there, i love to be able to put my hand on things , be organised and clean looking. Have just finished a complete overhaul of benches in my workshop so storage is next on the list. Cheers for the very inspiring video tutorial.

Nice job. I detest drawers, but if you like em and they work for you, then great!

Love it. Subbed.

I really like the drill\driver hanger. Think I'll do a vertical a post in my shop

Take out all the bits from the "set" organizer, make sure you have one of everything in there with your nut drivers. Then when you need to use driver grab that and you'll never have to make a second trip. Also buy a "security bit" set for the weird stuff. On the one that doesn't fit well, cut a slit the rest of the way through that pipe, heat it up with a heat gun and spread it out a little and it will fit.

That's awesome, I planned on doing something similar for my air tools. I can pick up the female ends for my air tools and attach them to some plywood and mount it the same way you did.

Okay and now lets see your battery charging solution! I see some vacant wall there....

As always, awesome job on your awesomeness!

Congratulations your job is beautiful and inspirational for me, thanks for your help for my ideas I from of Colombia 🇨🇴

Fantasticallyious!!! I've got a piece of pipe.... scrap plywood!!

only thing i would do in addition would be to use the labeler to print if its a T-25 for ex and past it to that box on its lip for faster finding of the bit. i know it says it on the bit itself but itll be more aesthetically pleasing to see it from afar.

Good stuff Travis! I'm for sure stealing this drill hanger! 😎

"See something in a store and say "Oh my god! I need that!"" is why I am not allowed to go to Home Depot or Lowes alone.

I do the same thing with PVC for caulk tubes.

Great video my friend appreciate the tips and thank you thank you from Doug

Definitely doing this in my shop

Awesome. Great video.

thanks

Looks great! I think I will copy it but lower the tool holder enough to slide a Packout organizer above it for bit storage.

Good stuff!!

Nice project Travis, my inner engineer loves the idea of the Kaizen foam, but practically I struggle with getting more in a drawer without it. The one thing I learned for sure from this video.... I don't have nearly enough drills/drivers.

Great job.

Great video good idea

Really like the idea of stealing the bins for drawers. I've been looking at ways to organize my bits in my toolbox and was about ready to 3dprint some bins but that is way better. Still may print something for my drill bits to save space but really like this for my driver bits and nut drivers. Also, really like how often you use super glue. I've normally got larger bottles for my reef tank hobby and never think to use it for little wood projects like this.

A friendly suggestion. Add a finished piece of trim to hide the edge of the plywood above the drill holders.

Nice solution! One tip for extra speed: Mark the back of the impact driver with Green for T25, Red for Philips 2, Blue for Pozidrive 2 etc (same color scheme as Bahcos great ERGO line of screwdrivers). Having dedicated impact driver for one impact bit saves huge amout of time.

@Ricko1Games

Alternatively you could get all your screws with T20 heads. Only if your using huge screws switch to T25 or T30 Anything that doesn't fit a T20 is probably too small for an impact driver and will likely damage something.

"posidrive" I'm guessing not american/canadian? First time I encountered posi is on my British car. Phillips just don't quite work properly in them, and luckily I had picked up some posi bits in a set when I was over in England. Not at all common here in the US. And torx are mostly on deck screws (and cars). Phillips is, unfortunately, the defacto standard. I try to get Robertson (square) or torx as much as I can.

Put some labels on those bins! You can either reuse the packaging or get a label maker.

Interesting to see a wood workers approach vs. a metal worker. I fall more into the category of metal worker. I would have cut the PVC notches with an angle grinder rather than a table saw for two reasons. First, table saws make me nervous with cuts like that. Second, I run a grinder a lot and am very comfortable with them. You can really sneak up on a cut with a grinder and fine tune it easy.

I'd love to see you incorporate more 3d printing, it's one of the things that drew me to this channel aside from the awesome shop cabinets you build...

ABS pipe is typically, if not always, black. No painting required.

Great vid as always Travis......... I do miss a solution for your chargers and spare batteries though....hint hint.

Great job, really enjoyed the easy solutions. I noticed on another video you use a benchtop jointer and wanted to ask what you thought of it? Do you feel its worth it or just save up for a full size jointer? Thanks!

"square drive " .. aka Robertson.. Canadian invention .. Henry Ford wanted it knowing it was the best ... didnt want to pay for it . not super popular in the states #1 here in maple syrup land

MY first priority with drill drivers is CHARGING station(s) for all those batteries. Close and Handy ... Yup. Gotta have it almost first. Always wanna be sure the battery is fully charged and ready. Never seems to be enough plugins where I need them... Grrrr.

What would you charge to come over and organize my shop with all your cool projects???? Great video!

Need to fix that air hose. 😆

OK, driver bits have a home… but what about drill bits?

Show us after your finished all 40

👏👏👏

Did you know that the Kreg jig has storage for the drill bit and driver on the bottom of the jig?

👍

I'm surprised there was no 3D printing involved. I saw the video thumbnail and immediately thought there was going to be some. Good idea though for people that don't have a 3D printer.

What about the chargers and batteries?

No link to download the STL for the center finder? New shop is really coming together

Just the kind of project I need to commit to...organizing my drills/drivers~! Nicely done. Since you're a 3-D printer enthusiast, there's a cool design for storing drill batteries called "stealth mounts". I found them on Thingiverse, but the .STLs are limited to certain battery types. Would love some for my Bosch 20v series, but I guess I'll have to learn how to model them. Thanks for the video~!

love the production of the video and some of your storage solutions but there has to be a better way to store those milwaukee bits! seems like a lot of wasted space.

Travis, great build but, if you're using the compartments for items that you are going to use singularly, why not just use the divided drawer sections themselves, and save the removeable plastic compartments for things like screws etc. that you will be using in an indeterminate amount.
