We just moved and I'm finally at the point where I am organizing my shop so I can start doing "shop stuff." These ideas (as well as the whole video) were very inspiring. Thank you for posting this!
That is awesome! Take your time and enjoy the process. Glad you found it useful. Thanks for watching.
All I could think about through this video was "why didn't I think of that" Great video. Thumbs up
Very much so! Great video!!
Pretty cool! Did one useful myself too: th-cam.com/video/nr2FstBvJFk/w-d-xo.html
Thank you, April. When I get my workshop built, I am definitely going to use some of your REALLY GREAT tips.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching.
Sometimes I don’t really care about what you are making, but I love to just listen to you. Everything you do you put your whole self into it. Hope you make videos for a long time. When I build my shop next year I will be getting some charts to hang.
I come from a construction family in many phases. It is truly inspiring to see young people, like yourself teaching us old dogs new tricks. Keep it up! I do have an interest in that horizontal peg board jar organizational thing. Please advise on that.
Dear April,
I really love what you do. It's so inspiring. I live on a small farm in Germany and bought a Woodmizer a few months ago. After watching all of your videos i started with woodworking and I really love building sawhorses. Thank you for sharing your experience with all of us. Keep on doing what you do.
Greetings from Germany,
Lukas
These ideas are all so clever! Thank you!
Glad you like them! Thanks for watching.
These tips are actually SO GOOD and simple! I seriously can’t believe how I’ve never thought of some of these before! Thank you for making this video! It’s honestly the best video I’ve seen on shop storage to date.
I've done the hook/drill holder and the picture hangers and I've seen multiple uses for PVC pipe storage, but the rest of this is new to me. Thanks, April!
OLD LEATHER SMITH here, I have watched you from the beginning of your videos and you have always had good ideas, I use most of the ones shown today, I have one 4 you, I installed plastic rain gutters on the edges of all
my benches which R also on casters, plastic because you can't get cut and they bend and return quickly, GOD'S BLESSINGS ✝️⚾🙃
The tip at the 0:36 mark, so ingenious yet so simple! Thanks for that.
So often I find "tip" videos are full of either blatantly obvious ideas, or ones that terribly lame/impractical. This is an exception to that! Great ideas and things I haven't seen before or thought of myself. Thanks April!
I am literally just taking a break from cleaning up my garage. I know you always have such a clean and organized shop so I thought I'd get some inspiration. I am now going back out to finish with a few of these great tips. Thanks!
@April Wilkerson I just received the reply back from SmartJars concerning the Food Safe plastics.
Regarding your question on food safety. The plastic we use to mold our jar and lids are safe for food storage. (Technically, the plastic meets U.S. CFR Title 21, Part 177, Subpart B, Section 177.1520 (c) 3.1a entitled “Olefin Polymers” of the Food Additives Amendment of 1958 to the United States Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act of 1938.)
Of course, as with any purchased product, you’ll want to wash these with regular dish detergent prior to use. Also, if you put these in the dishwasher, you’ll want to use the top rack only.
April I have recently retired and am in the process of tossing 47 years of accumulated junk from my career. This could not have been timed better as I finally organize the chaos. Thank you for sharing so many great ideas in one video.
Awesome! And congrats on your Retirement. Enjoy!
2:50 best solution for most of my items.
1. It's universal. You don't want a storage where only one particular tool fits in like those holes, where only one size of a drill fits.
2. You can see it all. No need to open any boxes to look for stuff.
3. Doesn't use much space. It's hanging on a wall, but vertically. Horizontal cupboards usually waste a lot of space.
4. If you need to change your workspace you can easily take it down and hang it up elsewhere.
-Cover the magnet for the drill press in plasti-dip or resin. If not it will break over time from the key hitting it
-Use a wire nut to seal silicone caulk.
Forget tips 1-17. The biggest tip here is use plywood for walls so you can screw things everywhere with no issues. I think this video just sold me on that.
I used Red Oak plywood for the wall of my watch repair shop. I am selective where I drill holes though as it is a nice finish. But that was the original reason I chose plywood. It does work great. Also my shop can be taken down easily as it is all screwed together. If needed.
I install plywood instead of gypsum in the kitchen.
Cabinets and tiles go on nice and easy.
I'm building a plywood wall, tonight, because it's easier to screw, than concrete. 😂
You are so right!
All that Tips Here need also a big room for each. I have only a very small Shop and habe to calculate with each half Inch.
I buy or Made my storage Tools only If i found a good rooms saving solution and the plywood allows me to do ist my way. And also the Concret behind ist too hard 😉
... except that it's not flame retardant.
Thanks for being so amazing and inspiring, April!!
This in fantastic April. I especially like the idea of the electrical boxes for storage. While watching this I was already planning a jig to hold the electrical boxes to a piece on the backside of my table saw to collect small pieces for segmented bowls. I love all of your quick tip videos as well as your whole channel in general.
You're so brilliant! 💜 Thank you so much for sharing. It's all simple. I love how you use things, you would already have in a workshop.
Beautifull and smart...love it...thanks👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you, some absolutely brilliant tips, I will definitely use the ones that are applicable and helpful to my small work space
Cheers, be safe and take care
Sam
This is a great bunch of tips April. Lots of tool storage hacks involve either too much cost, fiddly tooling or duct tape. I had already done the magnet chuck key tip but will definitely do a lot more of these.
April, I think you just might be one of the most informative TH-camr woodworker!
Thanks! I'm glad you are enjoying my Channel. :)
Your videos are JUST what I've been looking for as I clean out and organize my shed!
I've been watching you since you started. I remember you telling how you got started in woodworking.. And look at you now.....I am proud of you.........blessings to you always
Thanks! Glad you enjoy my channel and are still along for the ride. :)
A good addition to the magnet drill chuck holder is to add a retractable keychain thing to it so that its tethered to the place and can't possibly be put anywhere else.
One of the best "organizing on the cheap" videos I have seen...well done!
Quote of the day: "organizing a shop is never ending!"
I have been moving a few things in my shop and will incorporate several of your ideas. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks! Glad you found it useful.
I have been building and fixing things everything from engine rebuilds, home and deck construction to computers and the like. I am thoroughly impressed.
Finally, garage storage solutions from a person that actually uses them day in and day out.
Yes! I love making improvements to my work and home space. Nothing more satisfying. Thanks for watching.
@@AprilWilkerson holy crap. April Wilkerson actually responded to my comment. I feel like a celebrity. Lol
very helpful tips - thanks for sharing
I always store my glue bottles upside down to prevent the dried film on the inside of the nozzle. It also leaves the glue ready to flow immediately upon use. I set them inside of plastic cups so they will stand up and I can set them on any surface where I'm working.
Very nice idea for organisation, thank you
I will be adding tip #2 to my shop today!
Perfect timing, getting the small things off my bench will help tremendously. Nice tips with the electrical box and old towel hanger. Now I have a place for my clamps and tape. Thank you sharing you knowledge. ErnestG
great tips :-)
i just wish there were smartjars in Europe
I don't want storage above the surface of the workbench. It will get in the way. I put the magnet on top of my drill press. Nice idea for a tape rack... you could also use it for a paper towel roll. Thanks for the tips. Back in the day... grandpa would attach a mason jar lid to the bottom of a shelf. He'd put nails, screws, bolts, nuts, etc... in the jar and just store it quickly by screwing into the mounted lid.
Very nice setup talented very beautiful lady with a beautiful smile keep up the good work
Just when I thought I need to get organised this came along! Thank you!
Brilliant, yet simple. Thank you for sharing, as always I love what you do!
Really clever tips. I am gonna use some of those in my pegboard closet.
These. Are. Brilliant! My workspace is a part of a garage and these are genius.
Great ideas. Shower curtain hooks for saws all blades. Genius.
Lots more great ideas but that one I will use today. 😁😎
Brings a smile to my face when I see one of my favorite TH-camrs watches another that I sub to.
@@tree_carcass_manglerNice to see you too. Been watching since she started. Great ideas. Most of them much bigger than my little operation. 😁😎
Such great tips!! putting together my first very own woodshop/maker space and will be utilizing a bunch of these. Thank you!!!
I'm a old shop teacher and these are great. Your great kid.
Love both the electrical boxes and pipe cap tips! Thanks for sharing.
These are simply brilliant, April! Thanks for sharing!! Great vid. Ty.
Great ideas. Love the idea of the elec box, I can see a full French cleat wall of them would be great
April... you are so smart! Thanks!
Fantastic tips, April!!! 😃
Thanks a lot!
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
I love videos like this with interesting ways to store things I don’t have very much space so it’s always useful doing research before storing things
Great tips, many I'd never seen before.
For the drill press, I fabricate a wooden block and U bolt it to the column near the head. In the wood block I have holes for the chuck key and the most common bits. Also I hang the common toe clamps and such there too.
Hi April. Thanks for this new video.
Every day I learn more with the tips you teach us.
God bless you, take good care of yourself. 😘 😘
OMG this is a great video!!! I've used three of your suggestions and even bought the smart jars for my pegboard. Please more suggestions like these because I have a one car garage and hardly any space. Love the PVC caps and put up six of them.
These are some great tips. Thanks for sharing.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you, April, and I'm looking forward to building that rocking chair in the spring!
Inspirational tips, great video April! Also, your video - installing an airline - just encouraged me to set one up in my little glass art studio, warm thanks, Gavin in England
I really like your channel, I am from Saudi Arabia
Lot of great tips! And, finally, a sponsor for something that is more than useful and doesn't cost an arm and a leg. I'll be looking into those for sure.
Mate, this is solid gold. Every one of those 16 ideas strikes me as little short of genius. Thanks!
Glad you liked it and found it useful. Thanks for watching.
Speed square under bench hanger too. Awesome... the hidden bonus workshop storage solution. Those Smartjars seem good. Even better might be a square version to utilize more volume in the same surface area while still leaving enough room for gripping to grab and pull out.
You're just a smart creative woman, I thank you so much for the simple hacks esp. the PVC tubes are a fantastic item storage ideas. Thank you from Addis.
Glad you like them! Thanks for watching.
Wow, these are genius! Thanks April!
Wowwwwww este es el mejor video único en internet!
So usefull.
All great storage solutions, thanks for sharing April! 😃👍🏻👊🏻 ..... Those SmartJars look awesome, definitely going to keep them in mind!
Great ideas all....I love the fact your earrings look like spoons for fishing.....awesome 😎
Well its Friday, so no better time for me to get into the garage and finish building my workspace!😁😄 I love the pvc/dual 45 degree angles for hand tools! Thats happening today!
Those are all an amazing solution to most workshop issues!! 10/10 again April!!!!!!!!!!
Always great tips and info! Definitely pulling some tips for my workshop.
Awesome tips thank you 👍👍👍
Every one super practical and easy. Thank you!
Thanks for sharing that, organised shop
I buy the 16 oz glue bottles because I like the size to work with and I don't end up wasting it like I do gallon jugs. I keep the bottle upside down in a jar with a bit of water in the bottom, keeps the tip clean and the glue ready to come out with no shaking.
Excellent ideas!!!! Thank you
Glad you like them!
smart jars! great! so many uses, jewelry components, leather,... hook and chain ,so many good ideas and no B.S. Good Job! thank you
Thank you, I like your variety options.
Great tips, April.
Thank you 😊
Great Job April. So happy for your success.
Another great video April thank you for the ideas. Have a wonderful weekend
...hopefully you will will use one of them. Wow, I might end up using all of them! Thank you!
All great ideas and products!! 👍👏👍👏👍👏👍👏👍👏
Great tips! I've been using #5 and #6 for about 20 years. It's great to see that I'm not the only one who does it!
Awesome! Thanks for watching.
Simple but helpful ideas. I used a few myself. Thanks
I just added a bunch of things to my holiday wish list!
Thank you April! I hope you be fine, I appreciate the time invested!!! 🙂
You are so welcome!
Thanks very much. Very easy to understand and follow.
Glad it was helpful!
I've watched a lot of storage idea videos but those were some of the best storage ideas I've ever seen.
Little tips and tricks like these come in handy we don't always think about them so when they are presented it makes one go uh good idea.
As soon as I saw your thumbnail, I had my comment in my head. Tip #12, with the shoe pouches, is one I've been using for quite some time. I have a very small workshop (which I share with the furnace and water heater!), and I have a cloth version of the shoe hanger. It is mounted on the back side of my door, and I keep most of my spray paint and poly cans in it. They are out of sight, out of the way, but super handy when I need them.
A tip I have is to take 2' - 3' sections of heavy duty cardboard roller (as is used in carpet rolls), or you can use Schedule 40, and mount them on a wood base. It's best to cut a plywood round that fits in the end of the tube, and then attach the round to the base. Do this with 3 or 4 sections on the base, and you can keep dowels, scrap trim moulding, threaded rods, and other smaller width dimensional items in them. You could even put a lazy susan plate on the bottom, if desired.
Thanks for the other tips, April! You gave some I haven't tried before, (I love Tip #1 and Tip #3 the best), and I'm eager to add them to my shop!
These were awesome, Thank you! Also a big fan of reusing my plastic peanut butter jars for odds and ends. Screw the lids to the bottom of a shelf/board....instant, see thru, free storage. And it keeps the plastic out of trash/recycle bin. Keep up the great content.
Are they glass,and the lid plastic?
La organización es muy importante en el trabajo, así se trabaja mucho mejor. Buen video muy interesante, un saludo.
once again, great wonderful ideas.
I love these tips as well as all of your videos. Keep rocking April. You're doing a great service.
Thanks so much!
Those are great ideas, thanks for sharing April!!!!!
This video was so helpful and full of great ideas, thank you!
i like the pvc end cup and the chain😆
I use the back of door show organizers for everything haha pantry, coatcloset for hats and glove, hall closet for hairbrushes and bandaid and stuff, shop for batteries and small tools
I been using one for years to hold spray paint. I also use a dish towel rack to hold spray bottles. Hook the triggers over the towel bar
