Nick's easy-to-build "clamp caddy" stores and organizes hundreds of clamps in a small space, makes them easy to find and retrieve, and allows you to bring the clamps to your work. Plans available at https://workshopcompanionstore.com/pr... .

It's nothing more than a plywood box on casters with a grid to organize long clamps, a rack to hold medium-sized clamps, drawer to hold little clamps, and a shelf to mount anything that doesn't fit in a grid, a rack, or a drawer. It's a small fixture with a footprint of less than three square feet (0.27 square meters), but it holds hundreds of clamps of all varieties. And it makes them mobile! You can roll your clamp collection to wherever you're working; no need to cross the shop floor half a dozen times to find the right mix of clamps for whatever it is you're assembling.

The caddy can be built from a single sheet of 3/4" (19 mm) plywood, a scrap of 1/4" (6 mm) plywood, and a stick of construction lumber. The plans include plywood cutting diagrams and both Imperial and metric measurements.
