Thanks for all the support and amazing suggestions. Hope you enjoyed this video and if you want plans for any of these builds you can find them HERE: www.etsy.com/shop/BYOTools?ref=shop-header-name&listing_id=1669549403&from_page=listing
I really appreciate that you share these building techniques and the new materials, beca se I'm not able to attend trade shows anymore and I still like to see all the new things that are being made for construction purposes.
Love this!! If my garage ever gets full enough to need one of these, it's time for a garage sale. Lol
LOL! A very true statement. I'm trying to push off renting a shop or buying a warehouse as long as possible haha! Thanks for watching.
Love your videos, after a long week at work I jump on RUclips and wait for your next project. Keep up the great vids! 👏🏻
Love hearing that Max. Truly appriciate your continued support and thanks so much for watching.
Love the video, downloaded the wrong size plans.. Brent made it right for me as soon as I asked Thanks!
The plans were really straight forward even for a novice like me. Here's my pointers having just finished mine. Like I say, I'm new to this so take these with a grain of salt:
- Height was a big limitation for me, as I want to be able to roll the unit onto a trailer, so had to cut a bit to keep it under 70", so I went with 4" casters, (5.15 total), but still lost a row, but I'm going to put custom shelves where the top row would be, so some long skinny bins can be loaded from the side. -
-I made the posts just over 59” high. (64” Total wood Structure, 69”+ with wheels)The side effect of that is I could use one 4x4x12 and just cut it in half for 2 posts.
- I just put a center screw in the studs at first on top and bottom. This helped with 2 things, making sure that all the gaps were fine as we moved into the middle, (Brent made them wider than prev plans to accommodate wider range of bins, and I have the skinniest bins). I had about an extra ¼ inch where I split the difference. Second advantage of of 1 center screw is when everything is perfectly spaced, you can then twist and make sure that the stud is perfect 90 degrees before locking it in place with 2nd/3rd screws.
-I put the casters on after it was built, rather than midstream. For me, it was easier, because I could just put the 2 'walls' (front/back) on scrap 4x4. They stood up by themselves for the most part, then I could put the bottom side brace on a 4x4 too while I screwed it in. Then once it's in one sturdy piece, and could flip it to put on the casters.
-For the tote support braces, I made them an even 28” vs. 28 ¼”. No need for full length, and besides if you’re not perfect on your cuts they could stick out.
-Also for the tote support braces, I put in one side, then took a loose 2x3 board and just marked it, and then used that loose board to mark the other 12 stud sides. So only had to measure once, and marking the other 9, took less than a minute and guaranteed to be consistent. At the end I did just one horizontal line per stud (rather than each side.)
-Also on the studs, if you assume your floor is level, you can just screw in one side with 1 screw, then place a level on the brace to decide the height for the brace on the opposite stud. That will even compensate if for some reason your structure isn’t perfectly plumb.
-Also I will put a cross brace (front to back) halfway down under my center support 2x4. It’s just too weak in the middle if you happened to accidentally step on it.
Anyway, super fun project, and great plans. Like I say this one is for loading up a trailer for events, I may build another one just for storage.
You should use a story pole to make your repeated marks. It is a piece of wood that you mark your layout on and then use it to transfer your marks for like the runners for your totes to the legs. It will increase your accuracy and speed up the marking process.
Great suggesting and just to give a little insight I did eventually use a stop block on a few cuts. Just not all of them and lucky for us all I don't film EVERY cut I make haha. Thanks for watching and the suggestion Michael.
Yayy, new video! 🎉
Thanks so much for watching.
Great video exactly what I am looking for. What software are you using to design and spit out the cut list?
Awesome video! My son is still learning from you and my daughter is still interested in buying some old work shoes from you if you decide to sell any, for her clothing art sculpture. The worse shape, the better 👍👍 Thanks man 😊
I downloaded and built two of the narrower types. Waiting for casters from Amazon. But looks promising. I’m embarrassed because I thought I would build two in like 6 hours. It took me nearly 10 lol.
That could be modified to make a work table for the garage. Make two units that are four boxes wide by one box deep by two boxes high. Put a work surface on both units. They could be rolled around and locked together to make a four box by two box table or a long eight box by one table. Having just found your channel, I haven't watched all your videos. So if you've already done this, ignore my comment. Cheers.
😂, I had the same question. Or a 2 wide by 2 deep and 4 high rolling shelf. And make 2 of those. That way you don’t have to move a 32 bin shelf. You could move a 16 bin shelf easier. But you would have 2-16 bin shelves.
Has anyone ever tested what weight the totes edges will hold stored like this before failing? Any ideas what the heaviest totes any of you have in the storage units you have built?
This is a GREAT question and gave me an amazing idea. I will for sure test these out in the near future. Thanks so much for the suggestion and will keep you posted. Any bets on which one will do the best?
so how many of those ripped 2x6s twisted out of control once you released the tension.
Would have been good to warn the viewers that it could definitely happen.
Board split at 8:59 - any suggestions on preventing this?
Pre-drill the wood.
how does it move if it is too heavy?
This crazy thing called “casters”
Nice bane mask 😂
"You merely adapted to the Darkness. I was BORN in it. MOLDED by it!" LOL!

🙏👏👍💪
Thanks so much for all your support :)
Bro built a storage unit on casters 😅
Yes that is the concept haha! Thanks so much for watching.
What happened to using the metric system 🤪
Wow 445 dollars to store 32 totes. It’s crazy how expensive lumber has gotten, it doesn’t even make sense to build shelves when you could buy steel ones for the same price.
My exact thought
Hmm. Wow. Genius. But......why would a person need that many Totes? I mean, you got 52 right there and 14-15 all the way in the back. I get it, none of my business, but 66 to 70 big Totes???? But hey, if you like it I love it.
I’m an organisational nut, so this speaks to me!
@@marcharvey4114 ...LOL. If you like it, I love it.
