BOARD:
1. Measure and section off a 22” x 16” inch portion of the board. Cut the excess off using a vertical
band saw. Sand the bottom edge of the board. The excess will be used later.
2. Measure four 0.625” x 1.5” inch holes positioned 1 inch away from a horizontal edge and 2 inches
from a vertical edge.
3. Using a drill and a ¼” bit drill a hole through the midpoint of each vertical segment of the
outlined holes. See Figure 49.
Figure 49: Drilling the holes
4. Using a jigsaw, cut out the outline of the four holes. Using a wood file, smooth out the interior of
these holes. Ensure that the straps’ buckles can pass through the holes.
5. Use the excess material cut using the jigsaw as a riser to place underneath the tool holders.
6. Center the two tool holders (with the riser material) 1 inch below the holes on the top of the
board. Drill a pilot hole with a 11/64” drill bit. Screw each tool holder using a wood screw. Ensure
the screw goes through the riser and into the board.
7. On the back of the board measure 1 inch from the inside edge of the strap holes. Drill two sets of
three holes with a 17/125 inch diameter drill bit. Screw a suction cup by hand into each hole. See
Figure 50 for a picture of the screwed in suction cups.
