Posted to Instructables by Doom2099.

Step 1: Get the Materials!!

Materials:

  • Gatorade Bottles
  • X-acto Knife
  • Belt

You need to find the right type of plastic bottle.
I used a gatorade bottle because I believe it's more heavy duty than any other plastic bottles that I've collected.

Step 2: Get to Cutting

You need to use the x-acto to cut off the mouth from the gatorade bottle.

Step 3: Get to Cutting Part 2

Use the x-acto again to cut two rectangles off the center of the bottle. They have to be around the size of the belt and be at lease half an inch away from each other.

I did this for to two gatorade bottles.

Step 4: Put it together and wear it!

Slip the belt into them. After that you could now put your tools in them.

Now you could wear it.
Have fun and be careful when using the X-acto knife.
:)

What I like about this most is that you can see through it. If a screwdriver bit fell off, you know which bottle its in.
