Joey, you have some nice skills going for you. I really, really like the cabinet of drawers you built. If you are in Gastonia, I am not far from you. Would you mind if I stopped in sometime to check out the cabinet?

 

[Russ Denz]

Truly impressive, Joey!! Thanks for the inspiration, which I hope to put to use when we finally move.

Jealousness setting in.... Very nicely done. I love it, I may copy your tool cabinet design some if you don't mind. Thanks for sharing...

Thx guys. And anyone local would be more than welcome to come by and check it out . Feel free to use anything you see for inspiration, I'd be honored. Hopefully. I can get some more finished soon. More to come...

I'm mightily impressed by the organization in your tool cabinet. For the two drawers you showed w/ no partitions or dividers, have you considered using the rubber matting like they use in mechanics tool boxes? It's not perfect, but it helps keep the tools from sliding around when you open/close the drawers.

Joey,

Great job and I too especially like the large storage drawer unit.

That is really nice. Didn't all that PVC cost a fortune, all the fittings, etc.

 

[BWhitney]

WOW! :eusa_clap

 

[toolferone]

Very cool! Thanks for sharing. I also look forward to more as you get it done.

 

[g0a]

Thx guys and yes the pvc bill has been astounding probably 600$ or so so far. I have to build more drops for my Oss , sliding miter saw , 12" disc sander, and a floor sweep

They all will go on the long wall to the left of my table saw.
Gonna have to build a cabinet along that wall with more drawers and all these tools atop them
The spot where the drill is in this pic is where the miter saw will go. Gonna try and build the dust hood like the woodnerd uses as it appears to be the best for sliders

You have a great setup and your organization practices have kept it very tidy. Small footprint, yes but you are setup well and can certainly do sme woodworking in there!

 

[cskipper]

Looks like you've done an outstanding job on managing the area you do have available. Did you make the dividers in any of the drawers adjustable?

 

[dupont6480]

WOW!! Great organization. Love the tool cabinet and the Frankensaw !
Thanks for sharing.

 

[g0a]

Thanks for all the nice responses guys The brown drawer dividers are actually small boxes made of 1/4 mdf and are removable if i wanna take the tools over to the bench

The red bins are injection molded boxes as well

 

[Leviblue]

This looks great. Nice layout and nice work!
I now feel like an under achiever...and I've got some work to do..... maybe later.

 

[fsdogwood]

Wonder how much it costs to build this nice cabinet?
Would it cost less if just go out buy the HF one? (44" for $350?)

 

[g0a]

Probably cost more but i have 26x48 drawers that are self closing. The cheap hf units are 16-18" deep.
I probably have 6-700 or so in the box. Maybe less

 

[g0a]

Oh and mines 48" tall so total cubic inches of storage are going to be more

I am talking about this: http://garagejournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=85668&page=120 (the $349 one) that with dimension 44-3/4" L x 18-1/2" W x 40" H (http://www.harborfreight.com/44-13-drawer-gloss-red-industrial-uality-roller-cabinet-68784.html) . Was considering storage solutions, and yours is definitely elegant.
