I made a tool shelf for my lathe to get all of the odds and ends out of my chip tray and hopefully make dropped parts easier to find since I can now routinely clear the swarf from the tray because that's all that should normally be there. Makes finding needed items easier because all the usual bits now have a designated place. The shelf is attached to the backstop of my lathe, supported by angle brackets behind and the shelf tilts down about 10º so that things will stay in them despite vibration.
I should have done this long ago.
