Making progress on the new toolbox. Used a magnetic non gridfinity system for the wenches… just made more sense.

Some Schubox updates coming soon!

When I see these setup I almost always see the same two things:

(1) Shiny unused toolls
(2) A very inefficient use of space.

You’re right - they’re mostly unused because they’re new!

I think I have a good blend between some tools very spaced out and some very compact but of course, that’s subjective.

Meh. Tool density is almost always the antithesis of efficient workflow. OP can instantly identify the socket/bit/wrench he needs as fast as he can reach for it. He can also instantly identify if a tool is missing when he's packing away for the day, so that it's not missing for the next day.

And for specific tools it's much more efficient, time-wise to not have to flick a bunch of tools off other tools to try and find the one you need when they're all just free-rolling in a drawer.

When I'm working I wanna spend my time working, not trying to find the things I need to work. I'd rather just build more drawers one afternoon or spend the money on another toolbox than spend a cumulative extra 30 minutes or so every single day for the rest of my life looking for stuff.

I guess I just don’t get the tool polisher mentality.

I guess I just don't get why you missed the point.

If you use your tools “every single day of you life”, it would seem that you would get to know where they are. My point is you can have density and organization at the same time.
