Customize Foam Insert to Organize Your Toolbox
Tool organization is an ongoing challenge. One way to combat the scourge of misplaced tools is to create a comfortable bed for your most used tools to live in.
Tool boxes are great for safely storing hand tools, but they do little to help you organize them once they’re in the box. In fact, the smooth surface of the bottom of the drawer causes even more clutter as your tools push each time you open it.
Tool box liners can be effective, but a carved foam insert is the best way to keep your tools neat and organized. When one goes missing, you know exactly which one because of the shape of the cutout.
Watch the video above for details on how to make a Styrofoam insert. Start with 2-inch foam sheets or opt for closed cell foam inserts . Gather the tools you want to store, a pointed handle and a box cutter. This method is not limited to the toolbox. Foam inserts can be used for any drawer in your home.
