Re: HELP: Pit Organization Survey
Done. Surprised combination wrenches aren't a common 'tool'.
Our cart is also our toolbox. Every drawer (there are six) has its contents, and tools must always be either actually in use or in their place. We enforce that pretty well, so very little time is spent looking for tools - if it's not in the drawer, you look for who is using it.
We also color-code our wrenches by size, using colored electrical tape.
Lastly, we only have in the cart those tools we actually use on the robot. There is a bin for those oddball tools we don't use (like a 3/4" wrench - we don't have any 3/4" fasteners). Some tools have duplicates (or, like #2 philips screwdrivers, triplicate), and some subteams (electrical, pneumatics in particular) have their own 'suitcase' with some specialty tools specific to their trade.
