Ideas?


I am making a key cabinet and I am trying to figure out the best way to hang the keys. The company uses the key tags shown, so far I have come up with this idea...its a prototype so everything was guess... In the end it will be of cherry and each row will be five feet long. I primered the piece so it would show up better in the crappy cell phone shot.

Re: Ideas?


You can buy the holders in plastic like this, and they are already numbered. Many colors, lengths, and textures.

Re: Ideas?


I bought mine from MMF Industries, in Wheeling, Illinois. But it WAS a long time ago.

I think Office Depot carries a newer version (flat against the wall) by MMF.

Re: Ideas?


Here's an easy way. You just have to cut saw kerfs in a long strip of wood about 1/4" deep, every half to three quarters of an inch or so.
