My first addition to the projectitis blog. Not my first project and guaranteed not the last. In my quest for extra space in my many tool boxes I decided that the vice grips needed to find a new home. Just happened to have enough extra material to make these nifty aluminum holders.

I started out with 1.25" aluminum square stock and cut a slot down the length with the milling machine. Tapered one end and square cut the opposite. Scrounged up some 1/4" flat stock and drilled some holes. Fixtured up the two so they aligned and welded the joint out.

Hopefully will remember to take pictures of my future projects to share.
