Shoutout to the guy who told me to try a French cleat tool wall

I finally got tired of digging through three different toolboxes to find a wrench or screwdriver when I was halfway up a ladder. A buddy from my local hardware store in Dayton mentioned a French cleat system. I figured it was just another fancy Pinterest project. But last weekend I cut a bunch of 2x4s into strips and mounted them across my garage wall. Now all my most used tools are hanging right there. I can grab a hammer in two seconds flat. The whole thing cost me about 30 bucks and one afternoon. Has anyone else tried this setup and found a way to hang heavier stuff like a drill without it wobbling?

Did you screw the cleats into studs or just drywall?
