Tool chest foam inserts

Turn a chaotic drawer of loose tools into a deliberate, visual system. Custom routed tool chest inserts using two-colour shadow foam.

Visual Tool Control

Missing tools leave a shadow.

We use two-colour foam (typically a black top layer over a red, yellow or blue base) so that a missing tool is immediately obvious. It's the standard for aerospace, motorsport, and anywhere that leaving a tool behind isn't an option.

The Benefits

  • Instant visual missing-tool check
  • Protects precision instruments
  • Stops tools shifting when drawers slam
  • Maximises drawer space
  • Finger cut-outs for easy removal
  • Hard-wearing closed-cell material

The Process

From loose tools to a finished insert.

01

Capture the layout

Lay your tools out exactly how you want them to sit in the drawer. Take an overhead photo or trace them onto paper with a clear scale.

02

We digitise the paths

We take your layout and convert it into clean, precise CNC toolpaths, adding sensible finger cut-outs so you can actually retrieve the tools easily.

03

Machined and finished

The two-colour foam is routed to the exact depths required. Tools sit flush, contrasting base shows through, and the piece drops straight into your drawer.
