Right vs. Left Handed Tool Belt Setups
Left-hand vs Right-hand Design
In a hand-specific setup, here's how we typically lay things out:
-
Tool Bag (dominant hand side):
Worn on the dominant side (right for righties, left for lefties). Holds tools like hammer, pencil, utility knife, chisel. -
Fastener Bag (opposite side):
Worn on the opposite side. Holds tools used for support tasks—nails, square, driver bits, cat’s paw, etc.
Example: Right-Handed Builders
- Tool Bag → Worn on Right
- Fastener Bag ← Worn on Left
Example: Left-Handed Builders
- Tool Bag ← Worn on Left
- Fastener Bag → Worn on Right
