Tool Organization: Woodworking vs. Mechanical Tools

August 24, 2021

I've found one of the easiest ways to organize your tools is to delineate them as woodworking or mechanical. Woodworking tools include saws, drills, clamps, basically anything that is used to modify wood.Mechanical tools include anything used to work on my car or truck or to fix plumbing or electrical issues around the house.Naturally, the mechanical tools can be found and organized in my garage, and my woodworking tools are to be stored and accessed in my shed. This makes sense as it is nearby where they will be mostly used. Although this idea sounds like common sense, it has taken me a few months to realize it's the best way to organize my tools. On the next episode I will get more granular and provide actionable tool storage solutions for my mechanical tools in the workshop as well as my woodworking tools in the shed.Thanks for listening and please send an email or DM me at ToolCrave with any questions or comments.
