A good idea, I have very few double open-ended wrenches but a couple of them I use on the square head bolts at one of my lathes since the 2 of them fit every different size on that older lathe I keep them there, now to find a good spot to incorporate this idea. Thanks
I have the same situation the 3 wrenches shown in the video are for my lathe and fit all of the adjustments. Thanks for your comment.
I'm not fond of tool storage devices that require me to reorient and carefully align in order to store the tool. A magnetic strip like this...

mounted to the underside of the shelf would allow one to simply slap the wrench up there and pull it off when needed.
These are nice and handy if you don't mind your tools getting magnetized and then picking up metal chips.
what are the things hanging next to the wrench holder? (yellow tip)

They are for the mill table. See my video at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cnzuGabVbIg
Therbligs are a good template for analyzing tool storage and retrieval. The concept is more than 100 years old and still relevant: http://web.mit.edu/allanmc/www/Therblgs.pdf
In a home workshop (as opposed to a repetitive manufacturing task) you can conceptualize the motion study as solely retrieving and returning the tool, independent of any task you may complete using the tool. Specifically, look at Search, Select, Preposition, and Position.
