I’ve had three workshops and garage shops over the years and have tried a bunch of popular shop storage systems like french cleats, pegboard, and shop cabinets.

  1. Like yr thoughts on the Festool Hepa Dust extractor and the Festool cyclone collection pre separator
    You’ve made tremendous progress on the new and have throughly enjoyed yr journey

  2. I like tornado hooks for long tools, shelves and bins for smaller tools, I keep bins for like all my paint stuff, pvc, nail guns, pumps, generators etc on shelves, peg board and magnets for really commonly used tools, and then a big mechanic tool boxes.

  3. I have nothing to say really, but I appreciate your content, and wish to help with the yt-algorithms.

  4. For drawer organization Gridfinity looked like a good option. I have never used it. My main storage for my tools is modular tool boxes. I currently use systainers and tough system. I also have industrial shelving for my storage unit where I keep all my commercial lawn mowing stuff

  5. In the video open montage, there was a brief shot of a miter station that had a sliding miter saw. It appeared as though the section where the the saw was mounted, may have slid forward. This is an idea I have been trying to develop. I have a small shop that I’m trying to conserve space but yet be functional. If indeed that is what I saw, are there plans available. Your help would be greatly appreciated.

  6. I’ve been mindlessly using the “not enough room so everything ends up in a giant pile” system for years. It’s cost me nothing but my sanity

  7. Agree whole heartedly, except maybe peg board should be the last, stuff is more annoying than useful.

  8. My dad was a woodworker. He built his shop, table saw, tractor,wood tool chests,shop cabinets. Any updates on the dust collection system and the vibrator timer?

  9. Once I switched all my pegboard to Wall Control my entire shop did a 180 for the better

  10. Excellent video Johnny & I totally agree with you about the French Cleat system! ????????

  11. Couple people also mentioned this, but just the plain "screw plywood to the wall, screw tool holders to it" "system" is my go to. I was going to go all french cleat, but realized that I hardly ever, if literally ever, will reorder my tools, and if I do need to, I'll just unscrew and rescrew. Saved a bunch of time over dealing with french cleats, and more importantly, in my mind, I can space things out how I want, if they are shorter/taller than the predetermined distance of your french cleats.

  12. I just have a 4×8 sheet of sanded plywood and use the small little nails to put my tools on the wall. It's the most cost efficient and the hooks dont go flying like pegboard

  13. I’m still going with “Plywood wall and a bucket of nails”
    And a few custom holders screwed to the wall here and there.

  14. You missed the wood wall system, otherwise known as the french cleat system without bothering with the cleats. Attach a piece of plywood to the wall and then you can screw your tool holders to it. Aside from not having to make the cleats, another advantage is that some things just need a nail or a screw to hang on so you don't need to make a holder for them. And if you really need to be able to easily lift a holder off the wall then just screw in a small section of cleat for it.

  15. A single sheet of thick plywood, spaced from the wall with 1×2. Place nails or screws as needed to hang tools from. It's just so simple, no building special holders that also hang from cleats, no losing pegs. If you aren't setting up a retail display, how often do you really need to shuffle stuff around your pegboard or cleats?

  16. Thanks for the vid, I've always loved your content. I might reconsider your sponsor for this one, though… The World Health Organisation says that RO water is not safe for long term consumption. I come from a chemistry background, and I worked in the chem labs at college as part of my student work study. Our chemistry professors constantly reminded us that we were not to drink the RO water or use it for coffee or whatever, because it would leach minerals from your system. You should definitely look into that a bit more, before deciding if you want to keep using that system or not. Either way, thanks again for all your content; you're one of my favorite makers/woodworkers on YouTube 🙂

  17. French cleat for the win. Specialy if your new to set up a shop.
    Make a bunch of clets and put on the wall. And as you get more tools you can make more holders for it.
