    Ok my fellow wrenchers... I need some input...

    I have my sockets all setup on rails and such, but i dont like how they sit in my box. So, what i am in need of, is recommendations for magnetic rails that will stay put on the bottom of the drawer tray. What type do you guys use/recommend?

    I use a magnetic drawer liner to keep some of my sockets and whatnot from rolling around. Seems to work pretty well as long as you don't slam the drawer shut when you're pissed off, lol..

    These are the best type of socket holders if you ask me. With a rubber no slip pad on the bottom they do not move with the weight of the sockets in there. I own 2 sets of each rachet size for both my tool boxes.

    Hensen socket holders.




    Otherwise they make these if you want the sticks with a magnet on the bottom.

    i looked at those actually. Really liked them and the price was decent. Just wish the back side was magnetic.

    Why not buy some magnetic tape and stick it to the bottom of the socket holders, or glue small magnets to them? Just a thought.
