A socket board wouldn't be very exciting for me, but boards with pliers and screwdrivers are always cool.

I have wondered about making one for all my pullers and making it look old.

I have wondered about making one for all my pullers and making it look old.

I made my own crude puller box years ago by re-purposing an old cabinet scavenged from an ambulance. It is nothing fancy but it holds the majority of my pullers and is wall mounted. There used to be pics of it on the old site. These days there is too much blocking it to even get to it to snap pics for you.

No room in my small shop, so I laid them flat over the ceiling joists in my garage over twenty years ago. I don't know if I will ever get a chance to use them.

I wish, there is simply no room on my walls, they are already full.

That's quite impressive! Well done John.
