It doesn't quite work out like that but I have all my small tools in one place and I can find them in seconds. This is definitely well worth getting, you wil never look back. I just keep adding on to mine and it's amazing how much stuff you can actually get on to them.

Best Tool Holder Shelves Buying Guide
There is not too much to know about these tool shelves as basically they are pretty simple. What I found to be important is as follows
- Go for 20 gauge steeel thats powder coated. It will be strong enough, won't bend or warp and is very unlikely to rust
- Count your tools. I know this sounds strange but it helps if you have an idea of how many hammers, screwdrivers, plier etc that you have so that you can get the amount and type of "pegs" that you need
- Have a good look at what "pegs" are available ( if applicable ) as there are several different types that will suit various tools
