Daren, is that your own toolbox? I would have labelled every drawer Daren's tools. What would be more efficient? If nobody takes your tools you dont have to look for them.
I like having side cabinets, good for lots of small stuff.

Yup, that's mine. There are a couple people in the office that help in the shop some. They were pretty good at putting stuff back. But the wrong drawers. Got sick of hunting for my tools. I looked into a side box, but unless I want my tool box in the middle of the floor, it's a no go. Not enough room. Looking for a cabinet that would fit my mini fridge in the bottom. Then I can move my tap and die sets to the cabinet, along with my puller sets. It would free up quite a bit of room
Great
Where did you get the organizers for the pliers?

I love my tools - but DAYUM - I could never be that organized!
That came out of necessity! It was either organize or get a 2nd toolbox, or the larger 56" one (that I don't have room for). Organized fits so much more in your toolbox............
I have a rolling work table. Whenever I work on a project I throw everything I need on the table. It's a mess by the time the project is done but it works. Then when I can get to it I clean all my tools up and put them away nice and neat. Although sometimes the disaster stays on the table/floor for a few days
Sometimes the floor is my workspace also! Every project is a garage space disaster of tools and supplies, then I clean up and everything is nice and neat again. Goes back and forth!
My welding cabinet is a disaster also - looks like your plier drawer

I have two rolling tool carts, and one table. Table is empty as we speak. One cart is strictly auto electrical tools and supplies. Other cart is for junk. Well not really junk, but stuff i dont want to throw away.

Hmm... seems like something they would do as a first step before charging you rent. I guess that level of efficiency would be 7-sigma?I had to label mine for work

They call it 5s, but it's the same concept. It's been a royal pain in the butt. Only good thing is I got my air drops I wanted. Will be able to plumb oil drops in February

Wow!! Very nice!!
I'm just trying to get all my stuff in one spot.
Tooljunkie said he had 3 utility knives; knew where 2 were. I found 5! First time I actually know where they all are.
Added to my HF box with a tall side cabinet. Now one on each side. I think it gets me there. Similar to forceten's box, without the top chest. Also not as organized.
Found the magnetic shelf on the tall cabinet is a good spot for an adult beverage!
I'm getting there, but far from your organization, Bob!!

Ya' know what Skeets, that is exactly what I've done for years, and it worked!!
I now wonder what to heck am I gonna do to go fix my kid's car on the side of the road?!?!?
At least now I know where the stuff is to throw in a pail!!
I have a tool bag that generally remains empty. Pack it for a roadside repair,service call or a long road trip. Actually i have 3. One is household electrical,one is wire terminals and auto electrical tools. Third is usually empty.

Doesent look anything like that now.
My new toolbox is the one on the left, is black. Still trying to get a handle on things. Too busy trying to keep up with work and look after yard and storage business.

Looks good! If I remember right I mail ordered extra shelves for the side box. They were something like $14 for two extra's
