How to control clutter in your machine shop

Written by Travers Team | Aug 5, 2020 2:55:54 PM

We all know how easy it is for clutter to take over a machine shop. Let's follow along with our Tech Support team member Kurt as he gives you an option to at least start tackling this issue.

Hi this is Kurt with Travers Tool Company. Are you looking for a solution to keep clutter off of your machines? We may have the perfect answer for your machine shop!

So I have some tools here that you will commonly find set on a lathe or a bench where they usually end up in the way. 

This clutter can cause issues when you are reaching for something else that you need. It can also break your more expensive tooling if it happens to fall on your machine shop floor!

WE HAVE A SOLUTION! A Magnetic Tool Holder can help keep your shop organized.

The tool holder Installs in a snap to anything magnetic and now everything is safely out of the way. "I really like this tool and think it's very handy." (Kurt actually purchased one of these for himself!) 

Be careful using it around steel chips since they will still stick to it! The chips can cause a mess & make it more difficult to put your items back on to the magnetic tool holder. 

Remember to keep anything that you don't want magnetized off of the Magnetic Tool Holder (calipers, measuring tools, etc). The holder can create a little bit of a magnetic draw that transfers into the tool.
