Default you can never have enouph, clamps

Hi guys. I was wondering how I cold put all my clamps, where they would be easy to acksses. so I came up with this. I have a working aria. that I don't have much room to walk buy the wall. so I thought I would put a piece of angal iron. on the wall. to hold my clamps. I put one on the wall I have to walk buy. and dang that worked great. I think I have room to put another strip. under the first. to put more clamps.they are the small ones so I don't hit them at all. too cool. and on the end wall. I put a bigger angle iron piece. x2. to put the bigger clamps.and they don't enterfir with my tabale that I like to work on. that way I wont nock myself in the head. while getting in there. they are easy to grab. and up against the wall. How sweat. Gosh I think I have more room for more clamps. have to make a holder for pipe clamps . but dang this is working out great. you can never have enouph clamps. and this is easy to grab. hope you like my idea. your friend Evie

G'day Evie,
You're a bloody clamp-aholic
That's a great idea and one I just may swipe.

That ain't a container, that's a CONTAINER

your mate
