Does it play the theme from Thunderbirds when it folds down?

No, Bob the builder.

found some marine ply lying in the garage, thought id use that.

what do you think?

i need to find something to hang up some screwdrivers

 

[big-all]

2 strips off wood 12x20mm spaced apart every 150mm by 12x20mm blocks 20mm long

screws through the spacer blocks into the wall/board this gives you a slot 12mm wide in a 36mm space that will take driver chisels pliers squares all maner off tools

I used a bit of 2x1, screw to panel and drilled with holes every 30mm.
