Gear pullers and bearing separators have never fit well into drawers for me. I suspect this type of system would work for other types of tools/tooling also.

Neat idea Dave! Thanks for sharing it. I have had the same problem with tools like gearpullers---they just don't fold up well.Comment

Dave, did ya have to turn the hinge rod or the pipes at all? What size are they? They seem to fit just perfect.
I remember way back in welding school...and yeah, they had electricity back then
....that we had seats that pivoted out from under the welding table on that type of dog bone hinge.

I guess temperature is relative .... I like to stay in the house if the shop heater can't get the temp up to around 60

The hinge
Rocky D,
Looks like I just got lucky with the hinge. The center is 0.625", the pipe ID is 0.650" and the OD is about 0.850"......kind of odd sizes. I have either turned or bored on many other shorter similar projects. I love working with heavy wall pipe, anything above schedule 40. It's easier to weld and you are more likely to find a standard size ID.
Work area temp is usually in 50's. It's been nasty lately. I shouldn't complain though last Saturday I had the overhead door open from about 2 PM to 7 PM (that hadn't happened for awhile), high temp outside was about 50.
