    Foam Cannon Storage Solution

    In the 6 months that I've owned my foam cannon I've struggled trying to find the perfect spot to securely store this top heavy beast - until now.

    Tonight while browsing the garage storage options in Lowes I came across this simple tool hook:



    One wall anchor later, the hook is mounted, and performing perfectly:



    For $.98 this DIY solution is hard to beat!

    I have been having the same problem - very frustrating.

    This solution is awesome - thanks for sharing. We are not fortunate enough to have a Lowes over here in South Africa, but there must be something very similar somewhere.

    Great idea! Seems to hold the cannon rather nicely for quick and convenient access.

    Thanks! If anything I hope this idea sets you on the path for a similar (and perhaps better) South African solution! My main motivation was after I knocked the cannon off the self it was resting on and ended up with a broken gallon pump dispenser head and a bruised knee from it crashing down!

    I hear you, the hook is inside the closet I keep all of my detailing supplies stored in.

    Re: Foam Cannon Storage Solution

    This is how I store my foam gun:





    Rubbermaid's Fastrack Power Tool Holder is awesome for many jobs, but @ $10 I don't recommend it at a cost effective solution. Mine came from a guy on Craigslist who I bought his whole garage system for dirt cheap.
