Cordless drill storage center

[Artthetoolman]

I grew tired of never knowing where my cordless drills are. Seeing many organization ideas on FOG has inspired me quite a bit.  This design is serving me well. I Incorporated a timer switch that powers the chargers so they run for two hours when I hit the button.  The Milwaukee jobsite radio is mounted on a Lazy Susan so we can be directed toward the side of the shop in which I am working.  I should have built this thing years ago.

I'm suffering from a bit of drill envy there. Nice selection and storage solution. Only problem is no room for more in there, those things seem to breed in captivity

Very cool!

And I thought I had a lot of drills.  [smile]

Sorry, but why have so many drills? I have only one C15 for all applications ...

  [eek] Are you an octopus by any chance? !

That's more drills than I have bits [eek] [big grin]. Nice job and all to hand.

Definitely a lot of drills there!  To each their own!  I'm curious about that little Milwaukee cordless blower. Is that on the M12 line?  How does it work?  I could see a use for that in my life but don't have any Milwaukee tools.

I think I answered my own question. Looks like the M18 line!

Yup, and it works great and is extremely convenient! Some other tool makers offer a little blower also, but I held out until a Milwaukee came to be. Like their drills as well.

I'll speculate that he has so many because he kept loosing them. Now that they're organized he won't use half of them.  [tongue] [big grin]

For those times it's much more efficient to keep one bit in a drill instead of changing all the time. Like when pocket holing, I have one drill with the drill bit and another with the drive bit. And I leave them set up that way at that work station and use a third for the regular screws as well.

This M12 cordless vacuum works well.

Looks like a typical dust-buster but it uses a fan similar to the blower
so it's less than half as loud as the B&D dust-buster my wife uses.

Living up to the namesake "Artthetoolman" a bit

I do like it as im a organization neat freak however three drills is more than i need. My shop is so far from refining my drill organization sad to say.

One of the guys who taught me my trade said you can never have too many drills, or clamps. I think he said routers too.

Outstanding

I see more drills and impacts in your future.  Good job.

 

[wow]

Nice job, but as posted above you have no room for additions, and you OBVIOUSLY need more drills/drivers. You're just getting started!
