I 3D printed my own a few years ago. They’re holding up great. Magnetized, modular and all that jazz. It was cool because I got to learn a new skill and sold a few sets to coworkers. That said these look fantastic. I might have to get some of the Ernst magnetic ones.
Yeah that snap apart function is a game changer. They're a little expensive for what amounts to effectively just some spacers for tools so I haven't bought them yet. I typically just buy wrenches when I see them for a deal and then keep whatever organizer they come in, slowly trading up in organizers as I pick up new sets.
I've been thru a lot of wrench organizers, these cost a little bit more but they are 100% worth it. Best organizers I've ever had for wrenches and that includes going head to head against Tool Widget (extra pricey).
@@mookiiieeee basically $1 per wrench but if you divide that $1 by every single time you open the drawer and find the wrench you need instantly, it pays off in no time.
Good question. I got the wrenches at a pawn shop and they didn't come with the original organizer. I think that's what actually led me to needing organizers and finding the Tekton's shown in the video.
Yeah I have them in another drawer. They are a decent option. I dogive the edge to these Tekton versions as they let the wrench sit lower in the groove. This allows you to fit them into a shallower drawer and also prevents the wrenches from teeter-tottering around.
Good eye! Yes it is. Scored that in a huge bin of tools at an estate sale last summer. I haven't given it a run yet but they are very popular with old school style engine builders. btw love your username!
@@TorqueAndTwistedhaha thanks! and yeah, I've heard as well that old school engine builders like them. as a matter of fact I'm in school taking auto technician classes and I'm hoping to start a career one day rebuilding engines on classic cars! i figure a speed wrench like that will work out very well for me; the efficiency of power tools with the precision and feel of analog tools plus the pure novelty of it seems conducive to work i can enjoy doing and work i can be proud of.
@@jortsmcpunch2580 Check out FB marketplace and garage sales for deals on used tools. There's tons of great tools from older eras, most of them are better quality build that what you can find new today in stores. Sometimes you can score a tool box full of old tools for pretty cheap. Keep what you want/need and sell the rest.

Cheers to the creativity of making your own!
I recommend Tekton organization for almost anything. Ernst is also good.
Ernst manufactures a handful of the Tekton organziers, I prefer buying Tekton tho as they are HQ'd in my home state.
@@TorqueAndTwisted nothing wrong with that. Tekton is usually top of my list for a lot of things.

Hard to make the plunge but worth it

You didn’t like the trapezoid shaped organizer the Milwaukee wrenches come in ? The work perfectly in 24 inch drawers

Have you tried the toolbox widget versions of this?

is that a craftsman v-series 1/2" dr speed handle? I've been considering getting one for myself! could I ask what's your thoughts on it?

@@TorqueAndTwisted thanks for the tip! surprised I've never thought to do that
