Tool Storage Brackets
Bucky Renger, Bancroft, Iowa: “When I built my new shop I wanted to make sure everything was either hanging from nice brackets on the wall, in a labeled drawer, or on a clearly visible bench or shelf. These brackets are the nicest I’ve ever seen for hanging brooms, scrapers, shovels and other long handle tools. They were custom made by Doug Droessler of Bancroft, Iowa (ph 515 341-5902).
  “Droessler uses 1 1/2-in. tubing so the brackets are strong enough to hang up to 100 lbs. The protruding fingers on broom brackets are 13 in. apart and 5 in. long. Shovels, spades and other long handled tools easily slip into narrower brackets with fingers that are 5 in. apart and 13 in. long.
  “The leading edges are beveled, seams are ground and buffed, and 1 1/2-in. spacers are welded on back. Droessler finishes the brackets with black powder coating so they look nice on a painted wall and resist rust. He will make any size custom bracket that people want.”
