Like most hobbyists, storage of woodworking, household, gardening, and automotive tools in a garage is always a challenge, to put is mildly
While I would love to dedicate an entire room or even an entire wall or even an entire storage area to one hobby, it's not happening around here.
So, I want to know what fellow hand tool enthusiasts think of what may be a truly crazy idea:
I am thinking of buying a large toolbox for storage of handtools and automotive tools:

I would line certain drawer bottoms with wood and store handplanes, chisels, and layout tools in these drawers. Dividers could keep tools from bouncing against each other or dulling blades. Other drawers would be full of sockets, wrenches, and screwdrivers. Larger handplanes would be laid on their sides due to limited height of drawers.
A purists approach it certainly is not. Practical? Possibly.
Am I crazy or not?
