More inspiration for things I need to make! Great job, thanks!

Very nice Brandon. You can’t beat a bit of organization. Looks great.

Nice rack Brandon, and the bench is looking good.

Just one watch out. Wont the tannins in the oak stain your tools? Or would the BLO prevent that?

I like it! I’ve been thinking of building one like that. I have my chisels in a small cabinet, which is nice, until I need to use them. I usually end up with two or three laying on the bench top just waiting to get knocked to the concrete floor. Here is the one I’ve been thinking about. http://www.finewoodworking.com/Workshop/WorkshopArticle.aspx?id=34380

Mauricio, I didn’t think about the tannins, but it is red oak and not white oak, so as I understand it they aren’t as prominent.

Clay, that’s a great link. I think I’ll have to build one of those once my bench is done.

Thanks for all the pictures and description. If I build a new chisel rack, I’ll come back here for the dimensions.

-- Trees, a wonderful gift --Joe--

Good thinking and very useful rack to keep the tools close at hand. The one thing I would do differently in my shop is to add a ledge for the bottoms of the chisels to rest on, knowing me I would reach out to grab something nearby and gash myself!!

Nice rack. Don’t think I’ve ever told that to a guy…

Haha, thanks!

I love those fast builds. Sometimes those are the one you are the most proud of…odd how that works.
