I'm impressed with your logic and the presentation. I've been collecting tools for 50 years and I'm trying to trim down and get perhaps two complete socket sets. I probably have six now. It's been easier to buy new tools than search for existing ones. I wish someone made the plastic indexed units with a strong neodynimum magnet below it. Good video quality, great mic with a pop filter, too. You did well.

@ek2216btfd 5 лет назад

Holy crap... mind blowingly simple. Gonna do this for the toolbox on my truck!

@hey.hombre 4 года назад

Genius! There are so many ways to go with this great idea. You can also bolt it to a wall vertically or horizontally. Even upside down. If working under a car you can put it up against the frame or body. By the time I'm done working on my car I have tools scattered everywhere under the car. Not anymore.

@beaucottington 4 года назад

Thank for posting! I had this same idea but wondered how to keep the sockets on while in transit from job to job. I never thought to used two harbor magnet strips at an angle! I have a nice roller pelican case that is for camera equipment but I am using it for tools as well. I am making an insert and will use your method for sure! Thanks for the thorough video and the creative idea!

@Sisco296 6 лет назад

Thank you for this solution! I built one and it works so well! No more lost or even disorganized sockets! Your great sir!!!

@richardlloydusa 6 лет назад

Mine works great too. I am going to build a modified one for my deep 1/2 sockets which are much bigger, heavier and wider. You are most welcome. Thank you very much. I appreciate your comments and the kind words. All the best.

@GurnBograt1986 5 лет назад

Brilliant idea! I want to organize all my sockets loose in my tool chest but didn't have a quick convenient way to grab a bunch of specific sockets of all sizes for a remote repair. This is perfect, grab sockets, short extensions and throw them on the rail and go! I'm surprised that Harbor freight hasn't taken your idea and turned it into a product!!!!

@John-mh6mi 5 лет назад

Awesome job I need 6, so I had better get started. Thanks alot, great idea just what I have been looking for!

@mxcatkiller 4 года назад

Awesome idea!! Iv bought so many of when they were on sale for $1, had no idea what I was going to use them for yet. NOW I DO! Service truck, shop, tractor toolbox’s, etc thanks

I'm curious about the first socket holder. I'll be using your magnet method for my tool bag, but need something for my garage box. Thank you

@trekzilladmc 6 лет назад

I actually thought about this idea, but didn't know how well it would work in practice. Now that I've watched your video and the way you set it up, I'm definitely gonna have to do this myself ...especially since I always get the magnetic strips for free!

@richardlloydusa 6 лет назад

It works well. Thanks.

@charityanderson2685 4 года назад

I'm off to Harbor Freight! I've been looking for quite a while for a way to store my sockets. Thank you!

@michelecrown2426 4 года назад

I have some of those magnetic rails. I'm going to experiment with putting a piece of steel along the back instead of joining two of the magnets together to see if that works as well. Thanks for the video.

@shifty277 6 лет назад

Solid video, thanks for sharing your idea on this.

@richardlloydusa 6 лет назад

Thank you very much. I appreciate your comments and the kind words. I will be working on an improved version for my deep 1/2 inch impact sockets that are much heavier. All the best.

@96fido96 4 года назад

Definitely good idea better than many other socket rails out there stronger magnet than many other rails plus if it’s a lot less space than many of other rails

@CombatDoc54 4 года назад

Hey Richard, this is a great video and a great idea. New subscriber here and clicked on the "bell" icon. Years ago, I bought one of these from Snap-On, Matco, Cornwell or whoever it was. Those things are expansive!! Mine has these little angle brackets that allows you to mount them somewhere. If you are using it at home, that is okay, if you are using it in a work environment, that is not okay as people will always come to "borrow" a socket which you will never see again. I didn't and still don't have to "travel" with my tools, so one would be fine as they will always be laying in my tool chest. KUDOS to you my friend!!!!

@blakenorman4822 Год назад

Ive got a few pairs ziptied together so one side sticks to my toolbox and the other side holds my tools, files and bit drivers and such, so i didnt have to drill a hole in my tool box to secure them on a vertical wall, gonna use this method to hold my hex bit sockets, thanks for sharing, awesome idea

@josuemanriquez8890 6 лет назад

@stanp6383 5 лет назад

Brilliant. Thanks so much

@stacya7989 6 лет назад

Great idea! I wonder if you were able to drill a hole and put a bolt through the magnet if that would eliminate the need for a second magnet?

@michaelraypick1444 Год назад

GOOD STUFF MAN, THANK YOU!

@myshots101 5 лет назад

Man, you read my mind. I've been looking at a lot of videos on socket rails. I got the hf impacts and have half of them in my new 12" small bag to keep the weight down. I just got from them too. So I just need the magnets to be half the length since it's a smaller bag. I also just happen to have an extra one of those magnets sitting around which I got for free at hf. But I think I'm going to just cut the plastic packaging in half lengthwise and just re-use that instead before I cut the magnet. Nice solution though. Simple but effective.

@enriquemendoza8209 5 лет назад

Fantastic idea. ... I love it. I'm going to use your idea only slightly modified for deep sockets.

@richardlloydusa 5 лет назад

You are most welcome. Thank you for watching, commenting and the kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.

@enriquemendoza8209 5 лет назад

I have since then built it. I. Used an aluminum bracket which separates one magnet about 2 inches from the bottom one. It holds my deep impact sockets very well.

@Carlson89Honda03 4 года назад

Awesome idea

@darrinpahdocony960 6 лет назад

Yes these are very powerful and unfortunately i did get the tip of my finger caught in between them and it ripped my skin right off. So please be very careful when you get two of them close together.

@curiosity2314 6 лет назад

Good tip, yes Rare Earth magnets can be very powerful. They can give you an owe if you are not careful.

@richardlloydusa 6 лет назад

That's a sure thing. You see what I show in the video and getting your fingers caught in that trap would certainly hurt. Thanks.

@richardgonzalez8941 6 лет назад

Spectacalar solution. How do you carry multiple socket sets?

@tomj528 4 года назад

Great idea! I wonder if a length of 1 1/2 lightweight slotted angle and a single magnet wouldn't do just as well. The angle iron would be magnetic from the single magnet and perhaps be lighter and less expensive.

@hjjackson05 4 года назад

Actually, You could probably use 1/16 x 1-1/2 flat bar and assemble it as a T for a double sided holder, one side for deep and the other standard. In effect, you would have 2 holders at 1/2 the weight

@pabruat 6 лет назад

Thank you for this. It seems like the best solution I have seen on RU-vid . Query: I would mainly use these in a (thinly-lined) drawer of my metal tool chest. Will the bar "stick" to the bottom of the drawer, and will it stick strongly enough to allow me to remove the sockets with only one hand (not needing to hold the bar down)? Thank you so much.

@brianpaonessa8852 5 лет назад

I was wondering the same thing. since no one answered, I ordered one and will check.

@kirkjohnson9353 5 лет назад

You could make a simple wooden rail that the holder is glued in to isolate it a bit from other tools.

@robertrollins8506 2 года назад

I was wandering if you can use a piece of angle iron an bolt the magnetic strips to each side of the angle iron. I have picked up some bed frames over the years an I drilled out the rivets and piled up the angle iron next to my work bench. You do have a good idea my friend

@richardlloydusa 2 года назад

@chicagomike6666 5 лет назад

Great video--and great idea. One question--when you put these in your box/bag--does it attract other tools to it? Do wrenches or bits stick to it? I have a magnetic dish for parts--which I love--but don't put in tool box because EVERYTHING sticks to it in one big mess...

@Smore45 Год назад

@Leib33 6 лет назад

If I don't have the time to write a thank you comment to people who've expended their time and energy and money making videos, the very least I do is give every video I watch on RU-vid a thumbs up, unless I object to the content which is very rare. I honestly can't comprehend how numb people must be to just view videos like a zombie and not give the creators some recognition. Ok, rant over LOL. Thanks Richard. I have the same clip-on holders for my 8 rows of sockets for about 40 years now and mostly they seem to have permanently retired to their rest home in my tool chest. These magnetic holders would be a good solution for someone who's schlepping their tools away from the chest and doesn't like to have to herd cats to gather them together

@intraw831 4 года назад

Does anyone know if cutting the rails will harm the magnetism?

@rundmm 5 лет назад

Will this stick to the side of a metal tool box or do you have to screw it into wood or something else to hold it in place?

@richardlloydusa 5 лет назад

The metal brace that holds the magnets is not magnetic enough to stick to metal. It will need to be secured. There are mounting holes on my brackets. Thank you for watching and commenting. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.

@rundmm 5 лет назад

@@richardlloydusa Yeah, the magnet holds the sockets really well but I am also looking for the ones that will hold the socket and also attach to a metal tool box. These work very well for leaving them in the box and or putting the 2 together like you did if you want to move them to where you are working.

@thatdudemoe9109 5 лет назад

No, but you can double the magnetic bar(s) up with additional bars bolted directly to eachother i.g: one facing forward, and the other facing the back, so that both surfaces are magnetic. This is the method i use for my tool box so i dont need to drill holes.

@Dave-re3py 4 года назад

Tom Hanks voice double? Great idea

@psdaengr911 6 лет назад

I agree that the magnets are strong. but one of them is HEAVIER than a set of sockets. They also tend to grab any other steel tools. Instead of a second rail, I used 6 foot section of of PANDUIT SOLID RACEWAY, PVC, FS1X1BL6 . It's U shaped, and wIthout modification it will accomodate smaller sockets and can be fastened between sockets and the rail without reducing the grip strength significantly. Cut lengthwise to remove one side, a pair can be glued together with plumbers PVC solvent to form a wider channel, that can be angled to fit closer to the smaller sockets. A side benefit is that the plastic tends to keep other tools from being held to the rails.

@richardlloydusa 6 лет назад

Cool ideas. Thanks.

@mikefratalia9048 5 лет назад

patten that thing and make a few bucks. I thought u were going to just put those mag strips under the first socket organizer u had. cuz they had the sticks the socket sat on. but either way great idea!

@johnterpack3940 4 года назад

A simpler, safer solution would be to use some square bar and some epoxy. You can get 1/4, 3/8, and 1/2 bar stock at Lowe's or Home Depot. Cut a few short lengths (say 1/2 inch) of the appropriate size, however many you need for the number of sockets you plan to hold. Stand the pieces on the magnetic strip, place your sockets over them, slide everything to where you want it, pull the sockets back off, then epoxy the pieces in place on the bar. Now every socket is physically locked from sliding as well as magnetically locked from falling. And there's no danger of getting anything precious caught between two magnets. It wouldn't be adjustable, but how often do any of us actually change our socket sets? And it's cheap enough to just make a new one if you do get a different socket set.

@saminthewoods 3 года назад

What happens when 2 socket holders stick together?

@richardlloydusa 3 года назад

They snap together with a lot of force and quite quickly. Keep your fingers clear of them for sure. Were safety gloves and be safe. Thank you so much for watching, commenting and the very kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀

@jdp2380 5 лет назад

Wouldn’t all the other tools in your tool bag just stick to the magnets too?

@pinballscott1 2 года назад

Mig welding them together is better than bolting them.

@richardlloydusa 2 года назад

I would agree but most people (including me) don't have one. I will have to get a welder too. Thank you so much for commenting. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀

@drengskap 2 года назад

I think you'll find that welding the steel braces together will crack and weaken the magnets. You'd need to take all the magnets out, do the welding, and then put them back in, which is a lot of work.

@101auxi 5 лет назад

drop it and lets see if the sockets stay on

@hey.hombre 4 года назад

If dropped I'm sure some would scatter. Easy solution. You could make another magnetic bracket set and box the sockets it in. Then bolt the second bracket to the first bracket. Now you can drop it all you want.
