Everybody always begins with pegboard walls and then realize that it's a waste of space and end up ripping it down.

@@rmora1 I wish I had read your comment a year ago, being new to woodworking, I did exactly what you describe! Pegboard seemed simple, but what they neglect to tell you is that mdf is very susceptible to humidity, living in Eastern Canada 100% humidity is a normal day in summer. As we near the end of the first summer with pegboard walls, it's all warped and drooping depending on the weight of tools, so this winter's project will likely be a French cleat wall!

I like modular wall systems like this. I’m building a van into a camper, and on the kitchen galley wall I’d like to have a modular system like this so that I could rearrange shallow shelving as needed. The shelving will mostly hold pint and quart size canning jars. The van will generate plenty of vibration so I’m not sure if this vinyl PVC would be strong enough, but I sure love the concept.

Great Vids! Just the right mix of instruction without being long and your audio is great no overbearing music or power tools screaming through my speakers! Subscribed! Would like to see a vid of all your "Must Buy" or "Should have got this years ago" tools! (not just sponsored ones) 😁

Interesting. Very clean and easy system. For the cost, I think I like my 3/4" plywood French cleat system better. It definitely didn't take that much more time. I was putting up 8' rows of French cleats, just about as fast. The real extra effort came in making all the cleats. It took about an hour with one helper, a track saw, and a table saw to make one 4x8' plywood sheet into a large stack of cleats, that gave me wall cleats, and hanger cleats enough to go floor to ceiling (8 vertical feet starting 18" off the ground), in 12 linear feet of wall. Oh, but I almost forgot, you should really convert to a 1/2" plywood wall from sheet rock. That will add some time too. Nice part of my shop system is when I move, all my cabinets, shelves and hangers that use the French cleat system, will come off the wall and only the wall cleats will stay. Then my new shop will needs wall cleats installed and all my storage goes back on the wall with the same cabinets, shelves, and hangers. As I move for my job every 3-4 years, that's a huge time and cost saver when I move everything to a new shop so often. How long do you think this manufacturer will keep making this PVC system, and is it compatible with other commercial systems?

... and as he already has a CnC standing around, making some fancy neat-looking purpose-build hooks/holders would be extra easy. Like the two-can-holder he fabricates here, but nicer-looking. As it's all standard sizes/thicknesses/distances, very fast to draw up.

good little holder for the WD40, i'd have put a hole in for a pen & pencil & maybe a tape measure hanger too as you can never have access to enough of them & never find them when you need them. & love the blower holder

On your holder for the dust attachment, I think I'd cut a cylinder of wood 1/2" high or so that's the inside diameter of the pipe and attach it to the bottom piece of the holder. That'll prevent any lateral movement.

Looks like that will work great for general tools for gardening and such, but I can't see it working that well for woodworking tools. For that I would go with French cleats or peg board. I will have a wall that this will work well for. Thanks for the idea..

Suggestion maybe. Trace out one of those hooks that are on the back of the existing system and then use your CNC to create set hooks for your other items. If that makes sense.

not if you get a nice tight fit

The worst part about that type of storage like peg board or other variations, is that the hooks fall off really easy when removing the item it's holding. How well do those stay in place? For example, the extension cords, do the hooks stay sturdy when taking one down to use it?

Find a specialty lumber yard/distributor. Baltic birch plywood is great (and pricy!). You can do these projects with less costly plywood, but the results aren't as nice to look at (but out in the shop, or if you paint it?).

Torx is my preference but it’s more about availability. If anyone can tell me where to buy square-drive I’d love to keep some in the shop.

Favorite Screw type is the good old Fashioned Flat head screw.. for some reason there only one other person that seems to buy them.
