Air Compressor Caddy

Very cool and practical. I have been wanting to build something similar for some time now. I will have to refer to yours when it comes time to build mine.

Great job!

Nice cart, going to make your work easier.

Thanks for the kind comments. Not too often I am allowed to make anything for me :) I am enjoying the utility of it.

I just bough the lumber and hardware to build the same thing based on the Wood magazine plans. However, I’m considering putting in a drawer for my nailers instead of the cubbyholes.

Good thinking. That makes me wish I had a pancake compressor instead of a standup model.

That is a great idea, I might have to try it. I hate looking down and seeing my compressor and hoses on the shop floor , especially the hoses. I don’t really have wall space that I can attach hooks for hoses and cords, so this would work out great. I might have to what DHS mentioned and turn the cubbyholes into drawers. Right now I keep my guns in a drawer of a large industrial desk, so this would also free up that drawer.

As far as the sheet wood goes, is it more than one 4X8 sheet?

P.S.
Build more things for yourself.

Thanks Kristoffer for the suggestion and the kind comments :) I have a couple “me” projects on the horizon.

One sheet of ply was all that was needed for this project. Drawers are not a bad idea. It would help protect the guns from the shop dust and also keep them in place if you were rolling it around outside some.

Thanks for checking it out,

Nice Job, I helped my buddy across the street build one that is taking up making saw dust with the rest of us. I liked the bowl you just made as well keep it up!

Thanks for the encouragement and the comments Ken. I am sure your buddy likes the cart. Comes in real handy here.

Thanks for the comments Grover. No problem on the linking. Thanks for the ability to link projects here rather then having to reblog. Much more user friendly and helps generate traffic between both sites.
