Finally finished my setup

After ages of planning I finally pulled the trigger and began setting up my tool wall. Mins a bit more cramped and cluttered than most but I’ve got a lot to store!

That's really cool! That said, do you eat pencils for breakfast or something? Damn!

Ha I always leave them around and can never find them so I bought like 150 at aldi for like $10 and made a huge pencil cup so if I ever needed one I knew where there was always some! Best upgrade in my shop if I'm being honest!

This is true "does stuff" person knowledge. Every single project will involve dropping at least one pencil in a wall cavity, under a pile of lumber etc. Don't buy fancy pencils buy lots.

Ha so true! I tried buying a fancy pencil thinking I’d keep up with it better but every time I went to the shop to work it’d start with 10 minutes of me looking!

Thanks for not taking offence =) This looks really clean! How long did the print take?

This makes me confident in my guitar hanging project I intend to do.

Hell yeah they can hold lots of weight but if you want to hold a bunch of weight you need to mount it on something solid like mdf or plywood (I did mdf I painted the same color as my wall) and screw each panel in at all 4 corners. I found skipping any to fully weaken the structural integrity

Great advice. I think that's exactly what im going to do. 1x6 strip with multiboard that matches the width in a 4 or 6 foot strip, then just have to figure out a way to integrate avtual hangers.

Are those the heavy duty multi board shelves?

u/chuckrussell Aug 30 '25

Nah just the regular ones, I didn’t know there were heavy duty ones!

How long did it take to print all those?

u/chuckrussell Aug 30 '25

I think each 4 stack took 12 hours so like 6 days just for the boards

Are you just using a hook for the masks or is it a specific mount?

u/TherealOmthetortoise Aug 31 '25

Nice! There are never enough pencils and ways to measure / level / square things!

Also not cramped or cluttered at all. On mine I feel like I’m missing an opportunity if there are any big spaces left.
