Scoured the house for all the tools I’ve left in random places. Still missing a few but I’m getting there.

Bonus: charging station

Edit: my ADHD organization process:

It’s a work in progress lol

    I’d go a little further and associate tools with use type more closely. Hand tools like wrenches, drivers of all types, and pliers should all be in the same place. Electric tools, batteries and bits all together. Lawn and garden, etc… You’re close, but I’d refine it a bit more.

    Just having all your tools in one spot and plainly visible is fantastically dull, and I congratulate you sir.

    Out of curiosity and slight discomfort, what is that black object in the top left corner?

      I didn’t even think about putting them on the peg board until I noticed the chargers had slots for mounting.

      The Ryobi battery fits perfectly into one of the pegboard hangers. The DeWalt battery has slots in the sides where it slides into the tool, so I bent another hanger so it goes into that slot and holds it securely. Not near the contacts, of course.

    By Day 1577 of your three-day special organizing operation, will the firewood logs have their own wall sorted by size?

      Lmao. The woodpile is migrating to the backyard soon. Chipmunks took up residence over winter and I didn’t have the heart to evict them in the cold.

      In related news, I now store my birdseed and suet in airtight 5 gallon buckets.

        It’s yours. If he needs a ladder, he’ll buy a new one. Complaining about how much ladders cost is a favorite pastime of old men.

          I actually just borrowed another ladder from him, too. I’ll never get this one from him though. A nice collapsible aluminum ladder, about 20’ extended but you can carry it under one arm.

          He talks about it every time he gets to use it. It’s kind of an inside joke in the family.

          I’ve had it for a week and I’ve already told my neighbors and now all of you wonderfully dull people.

          I’m turning into my father and I don’t like it
