Ladder-Top Tool Holders
Powerful magnets attached to the top of a ladder allow easy access to hammers and pliers.
To prevent clutter and the risk of dropping tools, I attach powerful magnets to the sides of my ladders to create a ladder tool holder for hand tools like hammers and pliers. I buy powerful neodymium magnets that have a hole drilled in them for mounting. These rare earth magnets have a 110-lb. holding capacity and cost less than $2 each online.
