Modular Gravity Tool Holder – Adjustable, Reinforced & T-Nut Mountable (Remix)

Description

This is a remixed and upgraded version of the original Gravity Broom Holder, made for smart and secure storage of tools, broomsticks, or garden gear with round handles. The system allows you to organize various handle sizes – and shift mounts laterally thanks to its T-slot-based mounting system.

Key Improvements in This Remix

• Multiple handle sizes: Available in 5 mm steps from 15 mm to 50 mm (more on request) • Weighted gear: A screw can be inserted to ensure smooth, gravity-assisted locking • Improved clamp zone: Better grip and smoother action • T-Nut mounting: Includes bracket + M6-compatible T-slot nut (universal for all variants) → Works in standard aluminum profiles or milled wood grooves • Reinforced gear stopper: Now secured from above and front, gear won’t pop out – even with heavy tools • Refined tolerances: Smooth gear motion, strong hold
