Having a drawer above our under your guitar workbench is absolutely amazing and practical asf,

To block the trem on my Lo TRS II, I took apart a clothespin and put each of the 2 halves under the intonation... things. The grooves in the clothespin for the spring held it in place pretty good at about the right height.

Odense, Denmark here...
For my floating trem equipped guitars I just have a headstock mounted set of allen keys on each, and the Ibanez multitool + intonatoin tool in my kit. I also tend to put a Schaller Sure Claw in the back of them all, and drill the spring cover for access to the adjuster, then I don't have to get out a philips for setting the claw (which is the only thing you need to touch when your guitar is out of tune, provided it was set up well to begin with, and the strings stretched good and proper).

I use an Ibanez multitool. It has all the hex keys I'll need, two size of Phillips heads, one flat head, and several other tools.

I got a free Ibanez 350 because dude couldn’t figure out why it wouldn’t stay in tune. I went through the guitar and tightened everything up but he already had it in his mind that the guitar was messed up somehow. Free guitar with hard case for me 😊🤘🏻

HIGH FIVE FRIDAY AXEMANN 🎸☮️🇨🇦 Thank you for the concise explanation Amigo! May all your strings stay in tune Bro! 😎🤙

speaking of tools, I have the Music Nomad truss rod tool with phillips head screwdriver at one end. The screwdriver fits (very well) every phillips screw on all my guitars.

I’d recommend jewellers pliers with nylon tips to loosen stubborn fine tuners without damaging the black finish or the knurled surface… wish I’d had these before going to work on a jammed fine tuner.

Friendly point of info for those considering the ShredNeck TremBlock: it might tilt your Floyd up if it sits flush with the body. I have a Jackson Kelly that it simply won't work with because of this reason. (without doing large adjustments to action/truss rod) In any case, make sure that the thickness of the tremblock and the gap between your guitar's body & trem is compatible.

I can definitely vouch for its build quality, though! It works fine with my non-recessed Floyd guitars, so it still finds use in my collection.

Firstly, sick Revocation shirt, HUGE fan of them, always love to see some love for them in the wild. Secondly, jumping on the Red Bishop train, it's exceptional. I tried the Skyscraper one, and the official FR Key, but the red bishop wins hands down. Owning a Floyd and an Edge, it's nice to be able to use 1 tool for both. Coming at you from hot and humid NH.

Zuid Holland, Netherlands. Weather has been pretty shitty over here. Very autumn like (lots of wind and rain, around 57F).
I like the stepped wooden blocks (they kinda look like little stairways) to block off the Floyd when working on it.
They go in the back, not the top/front.
I don't like to block the trem on top. Rubber padding or not.
