Tool Cart (Adam Savage Style)

  • After realizing a tool wall doesn't really work for me I decided to combine two containers and put a tool rack on top so I can have all of my most used tools at arms reach no matter where I am in the shop. This concept has proven to work a LOT better and saves me a lot of walking around. Plus it's super handy to have a small area next to your work area to place tools or small parts. The Steel Frame keeps things from rolling off the sides and allows me to weld on additional tool holders.
    The tool rack on top is inspired by Adam Savages creation which I highly recommend checking out:

    In addition to the "first order retrieve-ability" and clever re-use of existing shop cabinets, I like the fast editing and NO MUSIC approach to this video, then with nice smart JAZZ at the end.

    nice design. It is clear that you actually use your tool cart for work, not like some youtubers who make work benches out of solid walnut or some other material that should really be in a living room.

    Wow!!!! That was amazing. I don’t have all those fancy tools. But I would love to be your neighbor. I just want to build a 3 tier rolling cart to use when I am working in the garage. Now I just kind of lay everything on the floor that I need. I kick tools under the car and stuff is just everywhere. You inspire me!!!!

    Спасибо Вам! С удовольствием подрочил от зависти на то количество действительно качественного и хорошего инструмента, эл. инструмента и станков которое есть у Вас в наличии. Живу в России (как Вы поняли) и у нас только один из двух инструментальных ящиков, которые Вы соеденили воедино стоит примерно от 150 долларов и до 300, что при з.п среднего Россиянина около 400 долларов несколько затратно... Хотя... наш президент живя на Марсе говорит что это не правда и наш уровень жизни резко подскочил и даже обогнал некоторые Африканские страны...

    Okay, so I have tool boxes, (top) and tool carts that have wire racks inside that hold at least 30-40 pliers on edge and so on. THAT BEING SAID, I am getting ready to convert a 9ft. x 10 ft. room into a work area INSIDE my house so that I don't freeze my rear end off and the acoustic guitars I am building. The garage in MI winters is NOT ideal. I have decided to build 3-4 of your wooden racks to mount to the wall.
    Thank you.

    Nice project. Don't use mitre gauge in conjunction with a fence. You may cause a kickback - I am speaking from experience lol.

    • @livewiya
      @livewiya Před 5 lety

      My first thought was similar. Also,putting a stop-block on the miter gauge would've better lined up that full-thickness cut, preventing it 'grabbing' a little like it did (which could've launched the offcut). Sorry for being the safety police - just don't like anyone getting hurt.

    Nice build, as always. Ignored this video for a few days thinking it was an Adam Savage. The only thing I don’t like about it is the access to the wrenches. I’d prefer they were not nestled behind something else. I want to reach out with one hand and have the right wrench fall right into my hand.

    • @PhilVandelay
      @PhilVandelay  Před 6 lety +1

      Yeah it's true the wrenches are not the easiest to reach but as with most stuff I make this was kind of made up on the go and the size based on some scraps I still had so I ended up having to kind of cram them in there ;) That being said, I kind of dislike wrenches anyway because I always reach for the wrong size at least twice before I get it right and since the rack is ordered by priority I put them in the back. I just bought some adjustable Knipex wrench pliers and hope to be using those most of the time.

    I'm jealous when I see the Europeans making these type of carts and see their wrench selection. Theres no way an American could put their most used box wrenches on the cart like that, because we have to deal with metric and SAE. Even in the same American car, there will be a mix of metric and imperial fasteners. I use my wrenches a lot, but there's not really a subset I could pull out from them that would be more worthy to be in the "quick retrieval" rack. So if I put any of them up there, I'd end up using half the rack just for box wrenches.

    Great video work and good use of storage. My only thought is you lost a good work space by adding that top rack. Most of those tools could be put around the sides of the bottom. How many time do you grab a screwdriver and not use a screw gun? Same for the torx. Also never have hammers that handy!

      @PhilVandelay  Před 6 lety

      Yeah they are a little bit tricky to reach but it's not too bad. You can easily read the sizes so choosing the correct one is not a problem. But it would have been better to make the whole thing a bit taller so there's more space. Only reason I didn't was that I built this from scrap MDF pieces and they just happened to be this size ;) I don't actually use wrenches that much so it's fine with me
