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
