Makerspace Lumber Holder

Our makerspace needed to more effectively manage all the lumber lying around.

This instructable describes how to build a mobile lumber cart that accommodates plywood sheets, planks and short boards.

Step 1: Measure and Cut Pieces

Measure out and cut all the parts from G1S ¾ inch plywood.

Step 2: Cut Dado Grooves

Install the dado blade and cut dadoes in the base and side.

Drill holes along the dado grooves for screws.

Step 3: Assemble

Assemble base and plank shelves, then assemble all the parts, gluing and screwing all joints.

Install casters.

Looks good. I wish there were more "instructing", & specifics,that you could have included, that, i think would make for s more complete Instructables" entry. For example, things like the height/layout lines of your dadoes, or maybe you listing the tools & hardware that was used during your building process. Perhaps, even listing the pros and cons of the final product, or what worked well & what didnt, or along the same lines, what you might do differently, if making another one. Maybe some things to consider (or maybe not). Thanks for sharing...

this looks great. I have a very small space (one car garage) and am trying to figure out some options for the occasion scraps and cutoffs. For example that 4'x4' plywood half sheet left over from ....? ;-)

so, how big is your base dimensions?
