You guys actually have to PUT THE SOCKETS ON THOSE HOLDERS! A no blaming wives!! Y'all lose everything!! If I had a dollar for every time Hubby asked me where he put something or if I can find something I'd be rich!!

the screwdriver drawer looks similar, they are hard to organize. Sockets are always (well mostly sometimes) on their holders or in the box.I do!

YES, speed squares and Tape Measures.Speed squares, marking pencils and tape measures. I give up trying to find them. I buy five at a time at the dollar store…measure every cut with three different ones and take the average
He keeps all that crap because if he throws it away he will have a use for it the next day or the next week. He has experienced that several times already.yes sharpies!! And pens, pocket knifes , duct tape rolls, scissors , tape measures , everything really. Husband continuously forgets where he put stuff, it's so bad I now have my own tool box...
oh and then he likes to keep broken stuff, like a whole bag of broken plastic thingies you attach electric tape to a t post with I found today . I asked " why did you keep these" ? Him" well, maybe I can use them for something"
They are BROKEN plastic pieces!!!
that's what my neighbor says , you have to purge , keep it organized, until she need something weird, then she comes shopping in my less purged zone.It's all about organization guys!!![]()
Exactly!He keeps all that crap because if he throws it away he will have a use for it the next day or the next week. He has experienced that several times already.
Our shop has fairiesAnd sharpies, are they like gold to gnomes, i have other brand permenent marker that stay around, but sharpies: poof
My first question every time is “Did you look 3” to the left?” He laughs because I have found things 3” from where he has claimed to have lookedYou guys actually have to PUT THE SOCKETS ON THOSE HOLDERS!

OH crap now we might have to quarantine cross border traffic cause I seriously don't want them crossbreeding and start flying off with sharpies and socket wrapped in strapsOur shop has fairies. Must be the border
Small straps - for strapping things on the trailer. The big ones are always there but I buy 4 packs and can never find them when I need one.
I had to read that to Hubby. He’s over here cracking upOH crap now we might have to quarantine cross border traffic cause I seriously don't want them crossbreeding and start flying off with sharpies and socket wrapped in straps
Now that brings back memories, we would drop a nut or bolt, hunt around for awhile, Mom would come out and say where do you think it dropped, then start looking outside the suggested perimiter, Mom usually found it. Some what like the Woodruff key adventure from last weekMy first question every time is “Did you look 3” to the left?” He laughs because I have found things 3” from where he has claimed to have looked
I call it going on an Easter egg hunt![]()

My brother adheres to the bucket method and has all of the bucket organizers one could imagine. Works for him. I am too anal-retentave for that.often people think that organization like socket bars will keep things from disappearing It works to a point. for a one job at a time thing. but if you have several jobs going at once you spend more time going back and forth to the tool box for tools than you do fixing. I do job pails, every toll that I use goes in the pail ' til the jobs done, all the parts that come off to be replaced go in a pail, all the garbage goes in a pail. amazing how many times a missing fastener is in the garbage pail, no matter how careful one is.
Somehow the sharpies escape. I am going to train the shop cats to capture a shop gnome and convince it to trade tools for sharpies, Sharpies are relatively cheap and sockets are not
