After seeing some threads on here about organizing ones brewing tools/gadgets, and SWMBOs pleas for me to clean up my brewing area, I was inspired to put together my own toolbox and thought I would share.
I started off with a Black & Decker plastic toolbox that looked good and had some removable compartments on the top. I found it at Walmart for less than $20 - (This is what I bought minus the tools). So now I had a good size toolbox and now it was just a matter of organizing all of my tools and placing them in the toolbox that makes them convenient to get to and use. I've attached some pictures of the assembled box and here is a list of the things I have:
Removable Top Compartments:
Various extra O-rings for every piece of equipment I have
Stubby screwdriver
Allen Wrenches
Whirlfloc Tablets
PH Strips
Campden Tablets
Carbonator Cap
Spare Ball Lock Liquid Connector
Removable Inner Tray:
Pin Lock/Ball Lock Gas and Liquid Connectors
Barbs and Swivel Nuts for connectors
Teflon Tape
Faucet Wrench
Spare Beer Nut/Washers/Barbs
SS Hose Clamps
1/2" SS/Poly couplers
1/2" SS Nipples
1/2" SS Elbows
1/2" SS Ball Valve
1/2" SS Plugs
1/2" SS Tees
Spare Carboy caps for 6.5 and 5 Gallon
Airlock
20ml Syringe
Measuring Spoons
Mesh Tea Ball
Water/Finishing Finings
Siphon Clamp
Small Digital Blade Scale
Keg Lube
Bottom Compartment:
Oxygenation Kit
Nylon and Muslin Bags
Refractometer
Large Digital Scale
Spare Tubing
Hydrometer
Spare Large O-rings
Water Finings
5.2 Buffer
DME
Priming Sugar
Adjustable Crescent Wrench
Drilled Stoppers
My question to you HBT, is am I missing anything glaring that should be in here? I'm sure I have it, its mostly just a matter of finding where I tucked it away at. Hopefully this will help others if they are compiling a list of things to keep on hand or in a toolbox.
