Members DCKNIVES Posted March 23, 2011 Members Report Posted March 23, 2011 Just got finished building this.Being a knifemaker as well as a leathersmith does have its own set of problems especially in a smaller shop.My main bench is already somewhat crowded due to knife parts,tools, computer and such.My ever increasing amount of leather tools was in one of my six toolboxes, which meant getting up to fetch tools to do any leatherwork, also not having room for a dedicated leather bench or room to put a tool rack on my main bench, like most of you have.so I built a new rack and added it to my center bench, which is in very easy reach of my main bench, and can even be used while on my center bench which is typically used for ongoing projects.So far it has worked great .The best part is I have less than $15 in the project.Dave Quote

Members DCKNIVES Posted March 24, 2011 Author Members Report Posted March 24, 2011 Thanks everyone.Been awhile since I made anything like this since I have gotten rid of most of my woodworking tools in favor of knife/leatherworking tools.Had I to do over with my wood tools, I would have made it with a hardwood and done it up a bit fancier, but its working class now.Ray, I just used some of Lowe's 1"x 12" whiteboard.Dave Quote
