long handled tool storage


Nine years ago I turned some thrift store bedframes into tool storage – see tool jackstraws. Today the need for something like that finally made the top of my ToDo list, but the salvage bedframes were not in my inventory.

On the other hand, I have a bunch of hog panel scraps lying about…

The plan is quite similar. Construction substantially easier. Results are every bit as rewarding. I suspect that hog panels, also known as livestock panels are more readily available to most folks.

Dang this went quick and easy.

If you are looking for a tidy way to organize your long handled tools, this one is worthy of consideration.

A double handful of 1×2, 2×2, 1×4 lumber, a hog panel that fits your available space, some 2″ screws and it almost assembles itself.

Yeah, I could give you step-by-step instructions, but that would stifle your creativity and sense of accomplishment.

You will work it out if you want it.
