Hi,
I'm trying to find a product - ideally not at massive expense.
In my mind its a "wall tidy". Sort of made in one-piece moulded plastic, with about 5 x 5 rows of deepish "cubby holes", and each cubby hole set in to it at a slightly sloped-in angle, in which I could store bits and pieces in each cubby hole, and have it hanging or screwed in to the wall of my garage.
Sort of a general organising thing which can be hung/screwed in to garage wall, for storing screws and bolts, tyre pressure gauge, car cleaning mit and towel.. odds and ends.. nothing overly heavy.
Any ideas of where I might be able to source something like this?
I know there are sort of professional type units but expensive and not ideal anyway.

Like this but more uniformed and deeper cubbyholes

Why not make one?
all you need is some 6mm plywood, pva glue, saw, a few screws and a couple of small right angle brackets.

This reminds me of two products, one is a shoe tidy, this product has pockets big enough to shore a shoe and measure about 2 by 1 metre with 20 pockets.
The second, if you can stand the shame, was made by Ty for storing Beanie babies. Made of plastic and again had around 20 pockets which hung on the wall

The problem with your "theory" is that it doesn't take into account those homosexuals, like myself, who were raised in Christian home with no abuse nor neglect in any way. My parents are still together after 45 years. I have a great relationship with my parents, and talk to them weekly, if not more often. I always have. When I was in the military and stationed in Europe, before cell phones, I always had a phone in my apartment so they could call me (which was cheaper than me calling them). No abuse by family, friends, or neighbors of any kind. My brother is 21 months younger than I am, and completely straight. There was no difference in our upbringing other than the fact that I was 2 grades ahead of him. There's nothing that needs to be healed. I had a great childhood.

These are £11 plus VAT (UK), they don't look that great quality, though.

Viking Direct have got some fairly cheap ones, but more of the first type you described.
I see what you mean about finding a search term to describe what you want... I tried "moulded plastic storage bins" and didn't get too far! Good luck!

Hang on a second - I'll check my many catalogs and get back to you.
OK I'm back - I purchased mine from Maintenance Warehouse. That is HomeDepot
This is their Catalog: I'm still checking LOL

I looked through the first 300 pages, can view several at one time, and I didn't find them. But I know they are in here somewhere and the price was very nice. I even purchased some made from paper that worked better for me with some items and fit nicely in my van.

SCREWFIX.COM ARE PRETTY GOOD. Also try RS Components, they are pretty good also. Thirdly, charity shops would possibly have the answer, they have all kinds of things like that. Any decent car boot sales/garage sales near you?
Finally DIY stores would have something, i am certain.

It would be easy to make but the only thing I know of on the market is a shoe tidy but I'm sure that wouldn't be big enough.

Is there a Lidl supermarket (the German one) near you? They often sell things like this at knock down prices, I am in UK hope this makes sense to you. Good luck with the search

what about finding an industrial catalog and looking through there. It will be a little expensive but you can find what you want.
The other thing is to build what you want. That would be the cheapest way to go. take care

Try looking for a tent tidy in a camping shop.
