In the end I went with the non slip rubber mat, think I'll still have to make some dividers of some sort. I had a small roll of Rolson mat so managed to do 5 of the 10 drawers in my new cabinet. I'll fill those drawers tomorrow while I source some more mat. Thanks to all who replied, some really interesting ideas there.

Actually the leather comment is an interesting one as the chemical composition or the likelihood of causing corrosion did occur to me. I suppose what would be even better would be something that suppressed moisture and corrosion.

Some really well organised drawers here! As well as really bad jokes... really... really bad!

I went to look at a couple of Bisley type cabinets today but they were woeful.

Anyone any good suggestions for drawer liners? I'm going to use a set of Bisley type drawers for keeping drills, taps, dies, hss tools and the like in. Any good suggestions for liner materials? It's 'nice' if stuff doesn't rattle about. It's 'more than nice' if stuff is protected.

I still have one of these (or should say my Dad still has it as he borrowed it some years ago) It was a great little piece of kit if you only needed 30 PSI and no great CFM. I liked it becasue it was quiet and small. It'll work fine with a constant bleed spraygun. Just keep clean oil in it and change the filter, I used to use the cooker hood stuff cut to size.

Looks like there's a few of us 'oop norf''

That can only be a good thing.

I've not moved yet and I'm already eyeing up more 'stuff'

Perhaps I should go revisit my new garage and measure it up.... that'll probably force the purchase of a shed as well

I've also lived in the NW almost all my life, it's not such a bad place to be

Bit misty, bit rainy but ultimately 'bracing'

Fizzy, we have electricity up here, it's not as grim as you might think

Definitely a cruel and unusual punishment, was supposed to be a few months and turned into ten years. Certainly makes you more resourceful about doing more with less.

Oh, I really hope not.... i already have too many toys/tools/fishing rods/cameras, etc etc (apparently)

Thanks Roy, I'll be in Formby in a few weeks, I'm currently in St Helens. Yourself?

Hi, ,I'm in the NWUK and starting to put together a new workshop. I've been deprived of a garage/shed for about ten years but that's sorted now
