T-handle tool organiser
I have bought a new set of Torx and hex t-handle wrenches. They are much higher quality than the ones I had previously. However, they did not come with a stand (workbench or wall-mounted stand). My previous budget set of wrenches did come with a stand.
I tried to fit the new ones into the old stands but they won't fit as the plastic handles are a lot thicker. So, how do you organise your t-handle wrenches so that they are easy to grasp and pick up when you're working on your bike? |

^ Yep, I might have to go down the DIY route.

I just use a metal pegboard with various hooks & round loops above my work center, but the easier route from the link might be all you'd need. I tack welded a strip of metal pegboard to my bicycle stand to consistently use the same hooks & round loops. |

...the magnetic strip thingies work pretty well. I've used those, and right now I'm using the pegboard fitting that they sell for screwdriver sets.

Could be just OCD, but I don't like having tools magnetized. Except for the few screwdrivers that I do. At least not those used for working on metal, with or near bearings.

Piece of board with a row of holes drilled into it?

A piece of aluminum angle, drilled holes to match the various wrench diameters. The vertical leg can be used as a mounting bracket.
