Tired of a messy bench-top? There’s a simple solution that doesn’t involve expensive tool holders.

Repurpose old “crocs” with a screw into your bench to create a holster for storing tools.

You can even use a kid’s croc as a smartphone holder in your car!

Tidy your bench-top with repurposed crocs

Work benches quickly become messy with tools and it usually happens at the worst time – when you most need the space! Rather than spending a small fortune on special tool tidies, try this idea… repurpose old “crocs” to create tool holsters. They make tools like cordless drills and screwdrivers conveniently accessible and best of all, away from the top of the bench. Here’s how:

  1. Find a few old crocs… maybe the kids have lost one in a pair or you have an old pair to spare!
  2. Decide how many you need and choose the best position for them on the side of your work-bench or on the wall.
  3. Use a single screw to affix each croc to the bench or wall
  4. insert your tools and enjoy your tidy bench!
