What happens here

Select strategic locations on the wall of your workshop or tool trailer for each holder, ensuring they are easily accessible and don't interfere with other stored items or movement. Use a pencil to mark the positions for the mounting screws. If fastening to wood, a cordless drill can be used to pre-drill pilot holes to prevent splitting. If fastening to metal studs or sheet metal, use appropriate self-tapping screws. Securely attach the assembled wooden holders to the wall using screws. After installation, carefully insert and remove each framing square and T-square into its respective holder to confirm a snug, secure fit and smooth operation. The video demonstrates this by slotting in a framing square, then a T-square.

Goal: Mount the custom tool holders securely and verify functionality.
