Do-it-yourself unloading belt for the tool. Choosing a tool belt. Carrying for nail masters
Do you have a master in your home? Does he need a simple belt tool?
This is how I made mine:
Cut 2 pieces of fabric that is 13 x 11 cm and the other that is 10 x 11 inches. Fold each piece in half along the 13 and 10 inches of the side .... so the pieces are still 11 cm wide. Iron apartment. 
Then cut out a piece of fabric that coordinates is 1.5 x 11 inches to create a piece of binding. Fold in half length wise and iron flat. Then fold the rough edges one more time at a time, and the iron flat again.
Place this tie in the top fold of the short piece, making sure that one time in the tie is behind the piece and the other is in the front. Sew on the bottom edge.
Then cut out another piece of your coordination fabric that is 3 wide and 5 inches long. Fold in half with the wrong sides facing each other. Then sew the edges together along the long side using a 1/2 inch seam allowance. Turn right side and iron flat.
Fold in half a loop and pin to the edge of that linked part, about half an inch below the anchor. Make sure your cycle is inward.
Then sew in place to keep it in place while you complete the belt tool.
Then open the larger pieces and line the smaller piece along the lower edge of the larger piece. Divide this section into three parts and points of contact in honor of the division.
Sew a straight seam from the base, on to the top of the binding. This will give you your three pockets.
Then fold also the larger piece downward on top of the smaller piece and line along the edge at the bottom and sides.
Sew on the edge with a loop with a hammer, the whole bottom, and then part on the other side. (Use 1/2 inch seam allowance). Make sure to sew together that the bottom corner is on the second side to ensure a nice clear corner after turning it on the right side.
Clip the bottom two corners.
And then turn the right side, the corners stick out, nice and clear.
Iron flat, then sew all the way along the sides and bottom, pretty close to the edge.
Then cut another piece of focal cloth that is 1.5 x 45 inches. (Keep in mind that you can piece the two pieces together to make a piece that is 45 inches long in case you are using smaller pieces of scrap metal.) Fold it in the same way as you made it binding at the top ..... and then center it over the belt tool. Make sure the back fold behind the belt tool and the front fold is on top.
Sew all over this top binding, close to the bottom fold, to attach it to the belt tool. And then move to the end of the binding piece to ensure the folded edges together, making the connection to the ends of the snap.
Knot the ends of the ties ...... and you're done.
Thus, it fits perfectly for person to work.
** It can be easily used for tool belts for girls too. In fact, our little miss loves tools .......... and pretends to help us fix all kinds of things around the house.
Hanging up a bookshelf or renovating a roof isn't that hard when you have all the tools you need at your fingertips.
If you have to go down and up after him, it means that you still do not have a comfortable belt for the instrument.
Instrumental belt, it is also a bag for the instrument, or, as it is also called in the English manner, tool bag, are made from nylon, leather, rough impregnated fabric and even tarpaulin.
The nylon tool vest is equipped with multiple compartments, pockets and drawstring straps that allow you to fit the vest to your figure. Some models have Velcro straps around the shoulders for maximum comfort.
Sizes for belt
Tool bags are available in shoulder, waist and waistcoat designs. Waist bags are small tablets with pockets, hooks and loops. Crossbody bags are widespread due to their cheapness, but they lose their original appearance relatively quickly. The walls of such bags are soft, easily wrinkled and not always comfortable when working at height.
Tool vests are the most convenient option for the "tool organizer". Usually it becomes an old denim vest with roomy pockets. Professional vests are made of nylon and have many special attachments and compartments. The disadvantage of such a "bag", oddly enough, can be considered the abundance of pockets, which another craftsman clogs with tools and fasteners, which makes the vest too heavy.
1. TRY ON YOUR BELT IN ADVANCE
When choosing a tool belt, make sure that the hammer loops are on the side of the working hand. Decide on the required number of pockets and their sizes. If possible, put on a belt right in the store and try to reach the farthest pockets with your hands.
2.DON'T FORGET ABOUT THE POWER TOOL
Instrumental belts are dominated by hand tools. Each model has pockets and mounts for a tape measure, hammer, pliers, retractable or folding knife, and even a carpenter's pencil. Nevertheless, choose a belt with loops and clips for a screwdriver or electric screwdriver - you will see, they will definitely come in handy.
3. WEAR THE TOOL FROM A COMFORTABLE HAND
The small chisel should be stored on the opposite side of the belt bag from the hammer, under the auxiliary hand. There must be a place in the tool belt for a screwdriver with replaceable bits, which can easily get lost or fall out of your hands. If the hammer is hanging on the right, then nails and screws are best worn on the left in convenient, closing pockets on the button. If there is a place for a ruler in the belt, it must be in it.
4. TURN BACK FORWARD.
If the job requires constant bending, turn the belt so that its pockets are behind so the tool will not cut into the side.
5. NOW SIDE.
Using the tool belt on the stairs is a must. Hands are free to grip and you can not be afraid to drop the hammer from a great height. If the work is going at height, try to free the front of the body from contact with the tool and move the belt to its side.
6. WEAR SUSPENDERS.
We recommend the use of braces for easier carrying and weight distribution. They not only reduce the load by transferring some of the weight to the shoulders, but also improve back support.
The instrumental belt can be made independently, with your own hands, but the reasonable price and high quality level of the finished models make this undertaking impractical.

Below are other entries on the topic "How to do it yourself - a householder!"
The problem of carrying and transporting hand tools, as well as small parts for locksmith construction or assembly work, has now been completely resolved. The DIYer offers belts and tool bags, as well as vests and trolley bags. At the sight of such a treasure, eyes run up. How to choose the right fixture?
When carrying out locksmith and construction work at a height or in confined operating conditions, as well as in a confined work space, a tool belt is a reliable assistant.
Any home craftsman appreciates this device: carrying out minor repairs or measurements at a height becomes comfortable and safe. Removing the necessary tool from the side pocket of the belt or bag can be deftly and quickly. At the same time, the hands of the working master are completely relaxed and are busy with the main work. Why is a belt or tool bag attractive and how should you choose it?
Twist, belt or tool bag
twisting
The first sign of comfortable and ergonomic storage and carrying of tools was the twisting of the organizer. The twist organizer is a durable canvas equipped with a large number of pockets of various sizes for transportation and storage. The size of the twists of organizers for tools is from 560 x 490 mm and allows you to place the required minimum set of tools.
Undoubtedly, the ease of use of twisting is justified by carrying out any work, including auto-mechanical. However, the twist is inconvenient to use when working at height, when the hands must be directly in the working position. Therefore, the appearance of belts and tool belt bags was received with enthusiasm by home craftsmen.
belts
Wearing tools on a special belt is justified in the case of work in which temporary descent and ascent is undesirable.
This can be electrical work or construction activities in which it is undesirable to interrupt. The common thing in belt bags designed for the electrician, fitter or builder is an improved design that evenly distributes the weight of the tool. Agree that 3-5 kg. tools on the weight should be distributed evenly, eliminating and minimizing unnecessary pressure on the spine and lumbar spine of the worker.
The wide waistband provides firm support for the lower spine and back. The strict ideality of the cut of the design excludes the unwanted possibility of injury to the back area.
The clever design of the belts is based on the use of heavy-duty materials such as tough nylon and genuine leather. The choice of such materials for the manufacture of belts and bags is justified by the properties of the material. Genuine leather and industrial nylon absorb virtually no oil or moisture. Therefore, the belt will remain dry even in the rain.
The material does not deform or wrinkle during operation, thanks to the use of mesh fabric or elastic microfiber as a lining material. In most cases, belts and tool bags are adjustable in size to suit your individual needs. The size adjustment is easily carried out and securely fixed using special Velcro strips, latches and carabiners. Any fastening of slings and belts of a belt or bag is carried out using steel rivets.
For example, belt stayer for tools is successfully used during a variety of construction and installation works for comfortable carrying of tools, as well as consumables. The belt is made of durable nylon and has strong double-seam reinforced pouch pockets. The number of pockets on the belt can reach 10-12 pcs. These are two large pockets, two medium pockets and six small pockets for consumables. Practical enough for an electrician's tool belt!
Improved locksmith construction kraftool belt for instruments, it can be used for their transfer and storage. A shocking abundance of pockets of 18 pieces pleases with its capacity. It is noteworthy that the pockets and sections of the tool belts are symmetrically positioned to distribute the load evenly. The inner part of the straps of the belt is soft and comfortable, so rubbing the "working corn" simply will not work. As the practice of using the device shows, the belt must be loaded evenly from the front and back. It is recommended to fold the tool in this way: those items and tools that are leading (pencil, tape measure, knife, screwdriver) must be placed in the right pockets. And items that are accompanying during installation or plumbing (nails, screws, ruler) in the left side of the belt.
Thus, it is possible to prioritize items according to their functioning.
In addition, the belt is equipped with holders for a hammer. For a properly selected belt, the locking device is adjusted in one movement, and the fastener works without jamming.
To make sure you have chosen the right belt or tool bag, we recommend watching the video.
handbags
Tool bags are just as interesting as belts. Compared to belts, bags are more spacious, the total number of compartments can be 25. The average geometric dimensions of the bags are 610 x 270 x 400 mm. Therefore, these bags are ideal for long-distance transportation of tools.
Most of the bag models are made of dense polyester. For reinforcement and rigidity of the structure, a double bottom is used. For ease of carrying, tool bags are equipped with shoulder straps, duplicated with a rubberized pad. Padded straps allow you to load or unload the bag from your hand.
The inner compartments of the bag have a large number of pockets of various sizes. The design of the bag pockets in places of intensive daily use is reinforced with steel rivets.
Small pockets make it easier to store the fastener. Long and narrow pockets are suitable for screwdrivers and wrenches. All inner pockets are equipped with Velcro straps that secure the edge of the pocket securely and ensure the integrity of the contents. Even on the road, small parts and fasteners do not fall out during transport.
In addition, the bags are equipped with steel carabiners and adjustable straps. The separation of the bag compartments is carried out with the help of zippers. The number of fasteners can be any, so you can also fasten the bag on the master's belt. Built-in adjustable carabiners keep your bag securely in place.
Trolley bags
Before choosing a tool belt and buying, you need to think about its future purpose. Maybe even opt for a telescopic trolley bag? Robust and mobile trolleys are equipped with shock-absorbing wheels. Therefore, trolley bags are designed to withstand significant loads when transporting a DIY tool.
For people whose professions are associated with working on the road, the problem of storage and transportation of tools becomes urgent. And also the question of their most convenient use, if you have to work in less than ideal conditions. For such professionals, a tool bag will be an indispensable assistant. Although, of course, there are also boxes.
What bags can be?
Bags are not only lighter and more practical than boxes, but also cheaper. The tool bag can be of different types. One of the formats is rectangular and equipped with handles and a shoulder strap.
There is another option for a tool bag. It has a belt clip and of course has less storage capacity. This tool belt bag is indispensable for minor repairs in the home, and is also popular with electricians, gardeners and hairdressers. Also, all options for containers have a different shape. They can be completely fabric or have plastic inserts. You may well make a tool bag with your own hands. But first, it's still worth understanding the various options.
Classic bag for storage and transportation
The distribution of space inside the bag plays an important role when choosing a model. Usually the top of the bag is closed with a lock, which can have a different look. It can be a zipper, buckle, drawstring, or even a padlock.
The inside of the bag is divided into several sections, different in size. Most often, such sections also have an individual fastener. Each pocket or part of them can be fastened. In addition, there are several pockets on the outside. Or there is another option, when the bag consists of several sections that look like folders. These folders are fastened together with a zipper and can also have individual fasteners. This type of bag is suitable for storing a large number of small tools. While the first option is used for larger ones. In addition to departments and pockets, there may also be additional fasteners or elastic bands, under which tools are also placed. Many manufacturers even draw silhouettes of the tools that should be there under such fasteners.
Belt bag for tools
This version of the bag is very convenient not only for home repairs. After attaching a belt with tools to yourself, you will always keep everything you need close at hand. It can be a full-length belt with compartments of various sizes located around the waist. There is also a multi-compartment pocket attached to the belt. Or a similar tool bag looks like an apron. The latter is quite popular in gardening.
Hairdresser bag
Hairdressers are among the group of workers who often have to visit clients' homes. Of course, they will need a container to transport the tool. But that is not all. Since in the process of their work hairdressers are forced to move around the client, belt bags will also be very convenient for them.
Bags for hairdressing tools used for transportation should have good roomy compartments and better with dense partitions. A bag that fits over a belt may not have many pockets. Just a few are enough - for scissors, comb and clips.
Mounting belt
What is an assembly belt, any master of minor household repairs knows firsthand. A tool bag of this type looks like an apron equipped with two large and several medium pockets.
In addition, these pockets have pockets for small tools as well as hammer loops. Such belts are very convenient because they allow you to keep a large number of different tools with you. This container is often used as an electrician's tool bag. This is due to the convenience of using this option when working at height. After all, with such a "helper" you do not need to constantly climb down the ladder to take a new instrument.
Manicure bag
There is no need for manicurists to use belt bags, as they work at the table and all the tools are laid out in front of them. And it doesn't matter where it happens: in the salon or at the client's. But when they go home to a client, they are forced to transport a large amount of materials and tools. In addition, the walls of the bag should be as tight as possible so that the transported materials cannot overturn too much to avoid spilling or mixing.
Therefore, bags for manicure tools are large in size, the kind of suitcases with several sections that perfectly keep their shape, as well as many pockets. In such bags, everything is always in its place. Such suitcases are fastened with a lock and have two types of handles: long and short. In addition to the usual sections, there is usually a plastic frame in a manicure case, which is sliding. It can fit the tools that the master is using at the moment. After work, the sections of the bag simply slide, and the suitcase closes, which is very convenient.
Sewing tool bags with your own hands
If you are not a professional in the sewing industry, then for manual work it is better to choose simpler models. For example, you can sew a garden tool bag in the shape of a belt or apron. First, determine the volume of your future bag. It will depend on how many tools and how large you plan to put there. It is also necessary to represent the location of all pockets as accurately as possible. Better even to draw a sketch.
Selection of material
A do-it-yourself tool bag can be made of various materials. And they play an important role. Of course, the materials used to sew bags are not very diverse. As a rule, preference is given to one of two options. It can be nylon or leather. The first is the most affordable and also versatile. It is much cheaper than leather and is therefore used much more frequently. Still, leather bags are much stronger and more durable to use. Leather bags are also heavier than nylon bags and require special care, and this can be attributed to their disadvantages. Nylon is lightweight and washable very well, but it is also quite durable. Another plus is its variety of color shades, in contrast to leather, which is presented in just a few solutions. But the disadvantages include its fragility. Such material can be easily damaged by tools from the inside. But if you are going to sew for the first time, then you can practice, for example, on a regular oilcloth, which has a fabric base. After all, sewing a leather bag will require some experience and equipment.
Tool bag pattern
Patterns for bags of this kind are usually not overly complicated. As a rule, these are several squares and rectangles connected into one whole.
But the sequence of their connection will depend on the chosen model, as well as on the purpose for which this bag will be used. Before calculating everything and building a pattern, you need to decide not only on the model, but also on its size and the number of departments. It would be nice to foresee in advance which tools and in which departments will be located.
Also consider the location and style of the fastener, as well as the handles and the placement of the pockets themselves. They can be placed on one side or around the entire bag. Consider this moment especially carefully in a belt bag.
Sewing process
Having decided on the model and choosing the material, you can start sewing. The constructed pattern should be placed on the seamy side of the fabric, pinned and cut out. If you are using oilcloth, no seam allowances are required. The easiest way to sew a bag is in the form of an apron. One main part is cut out, on which square or semicircular pockets of different sizes are sewn. All cut-out parts should be trimmed along the edge, for example with overcasting tape. A fabric belt should be sewn to the main part at the top. Oilcloth will not work for this, because it cannot be tied around the waist.
Now that the main part of the bag is ready, you should place the pockets on it where you want them to be in the finished version, and pin them with pins. Inspect the work, and if everything suits you, then stitch the pockets completely. This model can be slightly changed. Make a wide belt of oilcloth, which will not be tied, but fastened. Each pocket is sewn separately and consists in this case of two halves. After all the pockets are ready, they are sewn over the waistband along its entire length. They can also be stitched on top of each other. Thus, you will increase the useful volume of the bag-belt.
When choosing a bag model for your tools, the first thing to calculate correctly is its volume. It will depend on how many tools you would like to store or carry there. It should be remembered that the bag cannot be hammered to overflowing. This will harm not only the product, but also the instruments themselves. In the process of moving, they will rub against each other, which will undoubtedly lead to faster wear. The next thing to look out for is the presence of pockets, compartments and their functionality. It is very good if some of them are fastened, and some remain open, then the most necessary tools will always be at hand. The choice of color also matters. After all, when the bag is used in repair work, it is preferable if the dirt on it will not be too noticeable.
A tool belt is an irreplaceable thing for any builder, a necessary tool, components should always be at hand at the time of both normal repairs and professional builders. There are several varieties of tool belts, they differ from each other, let's try to understand their varieties, help determine the choice and how to make a tool belt on our own.
But you can find a photo of a belt for tools for visualization in our gallery.
Construction Tool Belt
The requirements for the construction belt are high, it must be carefully thought out when creating it to prevent the builder from falling from a height in the event of a force majeure situation and allow you to take the necessary tool with you for work.
Oddly enough, there are strict regulations for sewing a construction belt, since this item is often subjected to heavy stress during operation. It is imperative that only high-quality and durable elements are used for sewing the belt, so you should not be afraid that the mount is made of light alloy and will not be able to hold the load.
A construction belt without straps, on which a button is attached, warns against unbuckling the belt during work. The construction belt with shoulder straps is additionally attached to the chest and back, does not restrict movement during work and allows the use of more tools.
The options for the location of the fastening at the construction belts are different lateral or on the back, choose a belt directly related to the type of work performed, but a belt with two fasteners will be optimal.
The capacity of the tools will depend on the number and size of the pockets on the belt, there are many different sized pockets - the more the capacity of the tools. For example, the dewalt tool belt will be a great helper.
Features of the mounting belt
The mounting belt for the tool is able not only to help in work, but also to observe basic safety rules during work, this is especially necessary when working at height.
Before choosing such a belt, you need to know exactly the specifics of the work and consult an experienced consultant who will help you choose a high-quality belt with reliable fasteners and their convenient placement, depending on the specifics of the work.
Particular attention should be paid to the marking of the product, it usually indicates the width of the rafters and the material from which they are made ("A" - synthetic tape, "B" - steel rope, "C" - polyamide rope, "G" - steel chain ).
All fasteners, bands and carabiners on the belt must be intact, free of rust and not sticking, therefore it is necessary to check the product carefully before purchasing.
Caring for the mounting belt is not painful, it is enough to use ordinary soap and water, it is important to remember that chemicals, drying on batteries will quickly lead to wear. Periodically inspect the belt for breakages, jams. It is enough to check once every 2 months.
How to make a tool belt
You can not buy in stores, but make a tool belt with your own hands. It does not require any great sewing skills and almost any material (old jeans, belts, tarpaulin and much more) will do. Such belts will be good for using at home, in the country, in the garage.
The easiest way is to use a tool belt made from old jeans.
You will need jeans, a sewing machine, scissors. We cut off the belt from the jeans, it will perform its function, using the existing fastener, the belt will be fixed at the waist.
We cut off a small piece of fabric from one leg, fold it in half, forming a pocket, leaving 2 centimeters on top to connect the future pocket with a belt, sew the pocket on the sides and lay a couple of line seams vertically, dividing it into two more pockets in which it will be possible put small tools.
A simple belt for tools is ready, you can supplement such a belt with different pockets to your liking.
Well, which belt is better, the choice is yours. The main criteria for choosing a belt: the specifics of the work in the first place, then the functionality and capacity of the tools, and then working with the tool will not bother you.
