My current tool rack is too small. It has about 120 holes and I need about 80 more.  I can make a larger one, but I'm wondering if I want a different design.

Looking at the tool racks posted here, I've seen some racks with larger holes that hold multiple tools.

For those with that type of rack, do you like it?

Is it better than your old rack with individual holes?

What sort of rack / tools are you referring to? I assume a block to hold stamping tools?

Yes, a block to hold stamping tools.

I have three of these for my stamping tools.

Yes. I like them. I have the tools in rows, alpha-numerically sorted

This is what I currently use, which is too small. I have a fourth tool rack elsewhere in my shop that I made as a teenager, longer ago than I care to remember that I used forever. There are over 60 tools still in it. I want to get down to one tool rack for my stamps.

Next picture. I found this tool rack somewhere on this forum and am considering making something similar, but am not sure I will like using it.

My question: If you use something like this, how do you like it?

Check out Dave Swallow tool racks, a little on the pricey side but very nice !  I have one that holds 296 tools and I love it. I believe you can find them under Swallow leather tools. Rodney

I use a couple that sit on my table with the large holes.  I group my tools and put like tools together.

I made this a little while back to hold my stamps, lace and other things. It rotates around the center on the sprocket and the blocks swivel to stay upright. It holds 47 stamps per block for a total of 188. It was fun to make. I'm not sure I would like more than one per hole, but never tried it. I may make something like you posted above next and see how I like that.
