Organising your tools in Shadow Foam can save you time and money and this week, I travelled over to Exceler8 Motorsport to put that theory into practise! They got in touch, and set me an enourmous challenge - could I organised over 800 of their pit crew tools into Shadow Foam in just 48 hours?
This is a mammoth endeveaour and one that stretched me to breaking point, watch the video and see how I did! Plus, we asked the team of engineers what tools they need to work and service these touring cars and I announced the 5 winners of our biggest ever swag pile giveaway! It's a can't miss episode of Shadow Foam! Join in the chat below!

Great video. When doing the replicated cutouts, is there a quick way you have to copy the layout from one toolbox to the next? If it is multiple layers then I assume you just use the top layer as a template, but if it is only a single layer what then? Love the energy and enthusiasm you brought to this.
