Roller Cabinet Organising
davidimurray - 3/11/14 at 10:23 AM

Last year, the family clubbed together and got me a Halfords Professional Roller Cabinet - probably one of the best xmas presents I've ever had

The question of xmas is starting to be asked and one thing I would like to do is change the draw liners in the cabinet, as I find they slide about and crease. The other thing I would like is some organisers - either dividers or trays to keep things in.

Anyone got any recommendations for source / good drawer liners?

Cheers

Dave

I spray glued my liners to a piece of card I cut to size. They don't move now

Bit of carpet tape will hold them in place nicely.

There's a bloke called Stuart who signs on to Scottish MudClub as "Highlander" who makes professional tool tray liners for your tools with some software that turns a pic of your tools into. A toolpath for cnc cutting of trayliner. He was doing them at special rates for Smc members maybe not the locost soilution but if its a present...

I found some plastic cutlery trays that fitted perfectly in my toolbox drawers and help a lot to organize long thin tools.

I like it Fred, exactly what I did in mine, kitchen drawer organisers, cheap, haven't broken yet & you get to pick a colour :-)

If you have Halfords socket sets you can get empty tool control trays that fit in the drawers. Keeps it all nice and tidy and easy to see if something is not in its place.

I bought mine full but don't think they still do that. Also they change the specs of the sets so make sure the tray is the right one for the socket set you have.

Thanks for the credit Howard

I also found some smaller plastic trays that fit in a smaller 3 drawer cabinet that contains items used with the drill press and other small stuff, drills, jig saw blades etc. The plastic trays organize these items nicely. They came with a lid which I removed. There are 2 trays in each drawer
