Re: Tool Organization Question

punches with hammers... that makes sense. I've always kept my punches with screwdrivers (either because they are all long and thin or because sometimes you use one for the other...) My hammer drawer could take punches and chisels, that's a good idea.

I currently have SAE in one chest, metric in another. 1/4" & 1/2" ratchets and accessories together, 3/8" separate (used more often, have more pieces, ...)

I also have 2 screw driver drawers - one with a full proper Craftsman pro set plus a few others, the second drawer has the third string screw drivers (or paint can openers) and things like Torx and Clutch head screw drivers. I will probably do the same with my pliers, that drawer is a mess.

Where to put hex keys? They don't warrant a drawer to themselves...

I also have some separate small toolboxes for house stuff, but my house stuff organization currently really blurs the line between tools and supplies.

But then my current garage is not ideal; I'm renting at the moment and missing the garage I remodeled with all the frills and then sold the house in the divorce... :-(
