I store mine clockwise. No, I mean counter clockwise. Wait a minute. No, really, a few months ago I finally took a deep breath and completed the pegboard system that I started in, I think, February of 2004. Now all my little wrenches, allen combos, pliers, drivers and so forth are in full view on the board. It's not perfect, but it certainly beats groping in a drawer for the 13 mm when you've got at least 1 1/2 sets of metric and English combos plus the ratchet set plus other impedimenta all tossed in together.
As for the drawers, they were long organized: top, bike specific including puncture stuff. #2: wrenches. #3, drivers and hammers and pliers and other miscellanea. #4: drill and dremel and jigsaw and some odds and ends. #5: paint and wood finishing tools (I don't do a lot of that; just ordinary house maintenance.) Loose allens still in a small drawer in a small table top chest, Dremel tools in another, the rest crank, chain, brake, and other parts. Nuts, bolts, washers, rivets in a smaller drawer chest. (Both chests cheap plastic; don't get ideas of fine woodwork here.) One of the great frustrations of working a summer for Stevie was that all the tools were just dumped on a big workbench. Of course, he had so many of each that it wasn't that hard to find what one needed, but I missed my own organized workspace.

Much of what goes by the name of pleasure is simply an effort to destroy consciousness. If one started by asking, what is man? what are his needs? how can he best express himself? one would discover that merely having the power to avoid work and live one’s life from birth to death in electric light and to the tune of tinned music is not a reason for doing so.”* * -- George Orwell, Pleasure Spots* *Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not money, I am become as a sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal. And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not money, I am nothing. And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not money, it profiteth me nothing. Money suffereth long, and it is kind; money envieth not; money vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, doth not behave unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil; rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth; beareth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things. . . . And now abideth faith, hope, money, these three; but the greatest of these is money. * * -- George Orwell, Keep The Apidistra Flying* -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
