Aluminum Rack Holds, And Organizes Open-End Wrenches
I got tired of never being able to find the right wrench so I designed an aluminum rack that holds and organizes, by size, an entire set of open-end wrenches while at the same time providing easy access. The rack measures 8 in. long and 3 in. wide and has a sloped opening where you insert the open end of each wrench. Once all the wrenches are in place a hold-down bar is swung over them and latched in place.
You can hang it on a wall. If you need to use the wrenches in the field you can grab it and take it with you. If you don't have enough wrenches to fill the rack, you can slide the ones you do have to the small end of the sloped opening, then cut a spacer from 5/8-in. I.D. rubber hose and slip it over the 1/2-in. wide hold-down bar to keep the wrenches from sliding.
I'm sellling units for $10 plus S&H. We're also looking for a manufacturer. (Lyle Meisinger, 5311 Hwy. 66, Plattsmouth, Neb. 68048 ph and fax 402 298-8178)
