I got a nice tool work bench for Christmas this year and will be putting in foam inserts to organize my tools. Curious if anyone has a nice set-up they would like to share. Want to get some ideas.

This is the media section.
Where are the photos: :p

I'll have to update with the awesome chest Badwrench gave me. It does need some keyboard bling and stickers on the outside. I had to epoxy cardboard onto the back because of my damn cats though.

I still need to assemble the tool box :P but this is what it looks like.

I recently made a workbench for a limited space in my room - had to be custom sized for apartment life in the city, so I used precut aluminum extrusions and plate. Still a work in progress adding various bits and pieces.. but here's a somewhat blurry (I rolled a 1 on the photography check) shot of what it look like now:

Nice! I think I'll eventualy get a shelving unit like that to. I don't have no where near as many tool as you. Interesting toys you have there

I think yours is more a toolbox, than it is a bench.

Adam Savage (known from Mythbusters on Discovery Channel) have a couple of videos on Youtube where he talks about his workshop and how he organises his tools. He is quite serious about that.. and is not only a connoisseur of various shelves and tool boxes but has built a few himself.
Adam Savage's Mythbusters Toolbox (http://www.therpf.com/f9/adam-savages-mythbusters-toolbox-78239) - a thread on another forum about building a replica of the one he carries around on Mythbusters. Adam himself provided a few hints and photos of his own.
