What's your take on pegboard? :)

Hop your playing with fire,trying to draw bobby back?He"s not allowed here.:laugh:>>>

I have a sheet of the smaller holed pegboard on the wall at the end of my test conveyer belt that I use while doing my college thesis on planes flying and conveyer speed. As each plane hits the wall, I put a peg in the hole, to mark each speed/ height d>>>

Sometimes when you remove a tool, the hooks fall out. I hate that.

Anybody have a good way to store hoses? Air hoses, water hoses, Pressure wash hoses, you get any 2 of them together and they're intermingling like snakes in heat.>>>

I had the smaller holed pegboard and numerous of the larger diameter hooks...just drill the holes out as I need them.

They make a black plastic clip that hold the hook in.>>>

Not this again!>>>

As I said before......posterity will never take the saga of pegboard seriously......it's full of holes:silly:>>>

Today my wife mentioned peg board. We are buying a new house with a over and under 2k sq ft garage and she made the comment, "You will be able to put up peg board to hang up all your tools at the new house".

She custom cut some peg board one day and hu>>>

I'm jealous that you've got a woman that really appreciates pegboard.>>>

We have a section of pegboard with the holes drilled out oversize. We keep hundreds of fittings on hand there, stuffed in the holes so we can get at them quickly without digging around in a greasy box for them. Works great.>>>

Egg - That's amazing. So . . . . Let's say my compressor is on the ground and I'm working on a three story house that is about 100 feet wide, you would put together 150 pieces of 12 inch house. I got to say that the weight of the fittings alone would>>>

There are a couple of ways to keep your hoses manageable.

First you can coil the hoses and wire tie them in place. Wire ties are cheap.

Or, coil them into a 5 gallon bucket. It keeps them from tangling and makes them easy to carry and store.

Or, chai>>>

Good suggestions, Terry. EGG, you're a genius. I screwed two one-footers together and found it to be the perfect tool for disciplining my crew. Couple whacks on the side of the head with it and they become hose-rollin machines.>>>

rotf! Glad I could help. Naturally, being by nature extremely humble, I invite you to take all the credit for the invention when you're talking to your guys. No reason to tell them about me at all. Little rubber whackies...good show. Kind of like a>>>
