Tool Storage & Organization
Organize tools around use frequency, mobility, protection, visibility, and the working space you want to keep clear.
Storage should reduce motion, not just hide inventory.
The best system puts high-use tools near the work, protects precision or expensive items, makes consumables easy to replenish, and keeps benches and floors available for actual projects.
Assign storage by frequency and workflow.
Daily tools belong close to the task. Heavy or mobile sets may belong on carts. Low-frequency supplies can move higher or farther away. Wall storage is valuable when floor space is the limiting resource.
