I'm tidying the garage so as to be able to get at the BE projects and the brain clicked in last night: I've always hung shovels etc from a nail high on the wall by drilling a hole in the handle and tieing a loop of string through it, then groping around to get that limp piece of cordage to hook onto the nail; similar nuisance taking the tools down.
The midnight inspiration had me out in the garage this afternoon, drilling out the string holes a bit wider, and puting zip ties through them, with the real advantage being that the zip tie/cable tie is stiffer and there seems to be no problem hooking and unhooking.
Dunno if there might be any nuisance items when using them, as the string in the end of the handle is a lot more flexible for actually using the tool
Also dunno if anyone else is excited, but (at my age) it sure brightened my day, and I figured there's enough grey hair here to share it with.
