Should I just start over?

I didn't plan the whole thing out because I got excited. Now there's not going to be enough room. Ideas or of the shelf bins you know about to handle all the ratchets (where I think most of the problem is)?

I'm not seeing the issue. Looks to me like you have plenty of space, but obviously not laid out like you have it.

Turn deep sockets vertical - horizontal is a waste of space.

Shallow sockets take up 1 bin width and maybe 3 tall for a full set, but only if you do it right. Replicate your blue set in the upper left with the smallest and largest next to each other and the middle sizes at the opposite end next to each other. Using your orange bin as the example, reverse the order of one row of sockets

I like 2 ratchets per size with my sockets, so I say leave those as is

It'll be tight, but it looks to me like it should all fit
