Looks real nice. This is a good winter project that I need to build really bad.
What issue of shopnotes?

Thanks for the comments, I think it is issue 55, I had a great time building it, I think it took about 5 sheets of 3/4 plywood. I think it was well worth the time.

Thanks Randy. I will look that up.

Lots of good storage there.nice job.

Great job on the lumber cart – glad to see others build this plan – I recently built one too, and I wrote up some of my learnings to help others considering this plan: http://lumberjocks.com/projects/73058

Here’s my verson of a “shorts bin” that I built about 10 years ago…..I think that if you have room in your shops, this is a necessary item to keep all those loose boards rounded up, and in one place…....

Rick, I wanted to build a smaller cart like yours but a always have 2×4s in my shop. the bigger cart gave a place to put them, I really like you design. you have a nice shop from what I can see

Thanks, Randy…I appreciate it…..if you’d like a closer look at my shop, just go to my woodshop and take a look… I also have some more pics in my “Blogs”....it’s shop pics #2…..You can’t see it in this picture, but my plywood cart is just around the corner from the shorts bin…...

Great build. Mine serves the purpose and more. I built the same one before pocket holes were the rage and it did take two people and clamps. I really wish I had acquired a pocket hole jig before I built mine. The other regret is that I didn’t put swivel caster on all 4 corners. I put two swivel on one end and two locking casters on the other. As big as it is, it’s difficult to maneuver around like it is.
