I've looked everywhere for the old fashioned fibre type peg board for the garage. Jiggered if I can find any!?

Any idea's, Chaps?

What on earth is a peg board?

Old fashioned way to hang up tools and the like. A sheet full of holes, basically. You put hooks or pegs through it and hang your tools off it. Just like a metal toolbar, but not as pricey or awkward to cut to size and shape.

here is one place.
alot of places call it perforated hardboard or pegboard

Have you tried your local timber merchants ????

Cheers for the leads! Trying to find somewhere local to Shropshire, but really struggling.

Tried the local merchants, John. They looked at me like I'd just asked them to stuff chili's up their nose. Didn't realise this stuff was so hard to find!

Might find more now that I know that! Ta!

Might not be that easy to find, it's something that just doesn't seem to be used much anymore. When I was a kid, virtually every hardware shop window would have that as a backing with tons of stuff hanging off it. Might be easier to use a sheet of 1/2" Plywood and screw hooks into that.

Hell I still have a pegboard at work that I hung up in 1980. It just houses a few spare leads in a store room these days. It has chrome wire bits like coat pegs that were designed to hook into the board so you could hang stuff of it. Even your lab coat.

I used the machinemart 4 piece metal pegboard, it comes with racks for your spanners and screwdrivers etc. Good stuff, good price. If you get your wooden pegboard are you gonna do the tool outlines in marker pen? Bet you mess some of 'em up!!!

You know what, Kev... I am, yes! Finally sick of never being able to find me tools when I need 'em, so the garage is getting an overhaul. Need to be able to get to the bench so I can start decoking the heads if there's to be a fighting chance of getting the Barracuda to Gary's picnic this year, too.

I still can't believe how difficult it is to get this now. I'm with Blue, it used to be everywhere! All the engineers merchants used to have tons of it too.

Thank's for the link, Steve. As it happens, i can get the metal stuff easy enough, but I quite wanted the old fashioned pegboard.
