Tool Organization for your Home Workshop? Consider this
 

I also participate on a tool/workshop forum. Its a great way to get ideas (ie., find ways to spend more money). Anyway, one of the better things I picked up at a good price is this Harbor Freight Tool Cart. HF is noted for cheap imported tools. But some of their tool storage is actually pretty good. They run a coupon on this four drawer cart for $99. You can download the coupon off the web, HF has no problems with downloaded coupons (they are pretty flexible).

The tool cart has four drawers, a top storage area with lid, and a bottom shelf.

The cart is big enough to hold just all of my tools, certainly all the tools that I use on a routine basis (truing stand and vise are mounted on a separate work bench). And you can roll it next to your bike stand or wherever it is convenient.

I have had tool cabinets with top boxes for years. The cart is MUCH handier, and cost a small fraction.

YMMV, but this cart is pretty nice. If you want something bigger, HF has a coupon out there for the cart one size larger, five drawers, for $169. I really can't see buying anything bigger.

The pic below is with the drawers open (they close of course). Ball bearing slides.

The shop are picture "looks" spacious, only because I am currently occupying the living room of a duplex I am rehabbing (I am fixing up the other unit, believe me, this side is really rough). Prior to this, my workshop area was a world class disaster zone. I've got a lot of racks and other stuff to build, so this area will fill up pretty fast.

That looks useful. I'll have to wait for a coupon. Sometimes if you go into the store, stuff is lower than it is online. Sometimes not...

Sigh.....I miss having a garage workspace. I've been downsizing every year for about 5 years now. Planning on moving in a couple of months and just having a carport. I have NO idea where to even put my bikes!!

Love that Park stand. Miss working in a shop with one of those.

Nice too box too. The foam is a great touch!

Don't have to wait for the coupon, they are out there on line (take the coupon in to the store with you). You will not want to pay shipping for a tool cart.

Cycle World and Motorcyclist magazines regularly have HF 20% off coupons in their back pages advertising sections.
