When we first saw the Rockler Pack Rack Tool Apron, we thought, “Man, that’s going to be very heavy to wear around the shop… not to mention as anti-fashionable as you can get!” Those of us who had half a brain, however, quickly pointed out that this is an organizational device intended for use on a cart or even a wall. The tool is specifically targeted towards the professional and DIY (do-it-yourself) woodworker who wants to keep everything handy and within reach in the workshop.
Rockler Pack Rack Tool Apron Features
The Rockler Pack Rack Tool Apron measures 24″ high and 21″ (at the bottom – it’s trapezoidal) and is made from a rugged denim fabric (which is why, at first blush, you may think it’s meant to be worn). The apron can hang from a wall thanks to built-in steel grommets located on each corner. You can also attach it to Rockler’s Pack Rack Clamp and Tool Storage System for a moving cart solution.
The Rockler Pack Rack Tool Apron features 33 pockets, including 9 larger pockets for tools, parts, and supplies, as well as approximately 24 smaller pockets that are ideal for chisels, squares, screwdrivers, pens, and pencils. There’s even a dedicated metal slot for your tape measure, 2 steel loops for your hammer, drill, or mallet, and a small steel loop for hanging rolls of tape.
