My 6 Piece Screwdriver Set: ibuildit.ca/blog/6-piece-screwdriver-set/ High lumber prices putting the brakes on your creative endeavours? Got too many small parts cluttering up your existence? Is cardboard becoming a real problem due to all of the crap you buy on Amazon that you don't need? Well, here's the solution! You can actually make some pretty sweet stuff from cardboard, like this nifty parts organizer with drawers. You say it won't last, but you, my friend, would be dead wrong - it will last for years, even with regular use. And you can get a lot more fancy than I did here, and be much more selective about the quality of the cardboard you use. It's FREE, after all! Next: a cardboard table saw!!
I was a corrugated structural design intern for a bit, so I might actually have something to add! - when you crease/fold board, the outside dimension will half the board-thickness longer than your crease, and the inside dimension will be half the thickness narrower. Because of, this, it's very easy to lay out designs perfectly from the start, only measuring during layout, as long as your cuts are accurate (we used CNC) - creases that need to be more accurately placed (like the ones describing the width of the drawers) should be made across the flutes. Creases made with the flutes tend to drift into the nearest flute. - creases should be indented to about half the thickness of the board. The outside liner will be stretched taught and pulled in to that point, and the inside liner will buckle to meet it. - creases should be made on the inside of a curve. Creases that need to be made backward are usually made with a perforation (so you can work from one side only). - to build a pull-tab into the structure, cut an upside-down U-shape into the front outside wall of the drawer, with the "legs" touching the bottom crease line. BUT, don't extend the crease across that shape. When you fold it, it should stick out straight like the one you glued on, but without adding thickness. You can use this to made tabs for closing cereal boxes, and on on the bottom of boxes if you want them to stack into slots on top of other boxes.
@@wingnutbert9685 The width of the crease should be negligible if you use a reasonably thin tool. Very wide tools result in more of a radius emerging than a sharp corner.
@@Kuchenwurst Agreed. It was just a thought as thickness of the crease would be a factor if looking to get a snug fit for something like these little boxes. And the tool used would have an effect. I know this from experience, but I often pose these questions to prompt those that don't to take details like this into account as they are often not considered or mentioned. :)
I'm a cardboard artist, and I'm glad to see others dabbling in card board. I use a pizza cutter to score my cardboard. If you use a length of for the handle all the way back. Apply a light layer of glue to both pieces of cardboard. this will prevent warping.
Cardboard is a highly underrated building material. All the drawer liners in my toolboxes are old cardboard boxes and old iPhone boxes are very sturdy and good for holding screws and other small parts.
I LOVE using cell phone/electronic boxes for storing things in drawers. They are very sturdy and durable and a great size for it. Lucky for me, my son works at a cell phone store...he keeps all the boxes people don't want! 😄
Add a finish! That would add more strength. Shellac or water based polyurethane. (don't forget to sand between coats! lol) Up next week, John makes a mini table saw for cutting cardboard from a pizza cutting wheel!
You showed up as a RUclips recommendation & as a paper crafter I love finding ways to recycle really good quality cardboard and your drawers are a little masterpiece .now if only I could actually cut straight I’d have this nailed or should that be glued I no time all,instead of multiple pieces that get cast side white I redo it. Thankfully it’s not costing me anything except time & my patience .
This is so great! Packing cardboard is a fantastic medium to use for projects like this, it's highly underrated and yet readily available to everyone. Not everyone has access to endless supply's of plywood and timber, a work shop and not everyone can afford all the tools needed to make wooden projects. Making things out of cardboard is also a great way to model a project before making it out of wood. Projects like this encourage people to step into the maker/builder community. Great video mate 👍
I've been lamenting buying plastic small parts holders because making out of plywood would be more expensive and take a ton of time. I like this because free material and I can do it while my 3yo daughter is sleeping.
I love this. I am about to move into my new home and will have lots of boxes to unpack. Will definitely try to project. Thanks for sharing. I would love to see what other cardboard projects you come up with.
“Impressive…….most impressive…” - Darth Vader Thanks John for giving me an idea to use all the empty Amazon boxes my wife gives me to take out to the trash and help me avoid having to break them down so they are flat enough to keep the neighbors from complaining that cardboard boxes take up too much room in the dumpster… but I digress 😉you’ve saved me and helped me feel like I can now make a cool project that doesn’t require power tools… 👍👍
I had to show my son this, because he makes a lot of stuff with cardboard and glue gun. He's not quite ready for the tablesaw. Cool video. I've always watched your stuff!
When working with cardboard, don't be hesitant to use lots of packing tape throughout the construction. Cardboard can also be painted to transform it into a durable product. I would love to build several of these to hold not only small parts, but seeds for planting, spices in the kitchen and sewing stuff but I would still make the outer case and shelves using wood for strength and durability while the drawers could be made using cardboard.
very cool! This is one I've gotta follow, bad as I need it! Thank you! I had to slow down the video to 25% to watch it without getting dizzy! woah! I know you're probably one of those youtubers that doesn't bother commenting, much less read the comments, but I'm gonna tell you anyway... Hot glue does dry out over time. So I suggest adding wood glue to the seams after the hot glue sets.
Really cool. You can make furniture out of cardboard, why not practical stuff too. I'm a 70s kid, I made an x-wing fighter out of cardboard way back then. Best free toy I ever had.
Thanks for this tutorial! I'm into making stuff from cardboard and picked up some tips and tricks and jigs from you that no other cardboard channel has provided. Thanks for that too! Would love to see you make more cardboard projects... I checked you playlists and this was the only one I found. I dabble in woodworking as well but have switched to cardboard for smaller projects for the same reasons you've mentioned. Cheers ☺ ☺
I enjoyed watching this tutorial. Thank you for showing how to use the cardboard in this project as I don’t have the electrical tools that you have nor the space. But cardboard are easily accessible & you can use simple tools for that. Please make more useful cardboard projects. Thank you🙏🏼😻
Nice thought and change of pace video.. Ha..Ha.. We are all doing the same thing (Welders, Carpenters, etc).. Just using different tools and Mediums.. Might as well do some with alternative materials. You never know when we might need to do it for necessity, the way this carp is all heading.. Ha... The Best dishes are made from Leftovers, and the Best Chefs can make a great dinner with Whatever is in the Fridge. Basically the same thing you just did. Grabbed some boxes and kept doing what you do.. Creative for sure.. Thanks for the time you spend making videos...
Dude, you're a genius. kudos! Been watching you for years... I like the way you think. I nearly never comment, exception made here. Hope you get to read this.
COMMENT: I’ve used cardboard boxes for organizing the deep spaces under some of my kitchen cabinets, but also the caverns under the bathroom sinks. What I use for “handles” there are strips of 2” wide packing tape that I have running most of the length along the bottom of the box, and then, when it just about gets to the front edge, I lay on another strip, sticky face to sticky face, leaving 3” - 4” length on the end, and fold that back onto the length coming out from under the box bottom. The tape forms a loop handle that allows for the box to slide easily forward, and, for boxes on shelves above my head, usually let’s me access those boxes without first going to get a ladder!!
Cool video dude, I already like your content in general but this one reaches a wider audience. Almost everyone has access to those materials, and I'm sure you will inspire creativity. Very practical, and it looked fun to build.
And that's why I'm here. There is a niche hobby called "Cartonnage" (Making boxes and furniture with cardboard) but it doesn't have a huge presence in the US, and well, I don't speak French so you are absolutely filling in a gap in the market. Thank you so much for your detailed video!
John, very impressive. I'm beginning to think that you could make a paper airplane and fly the family across the country. You are that good! As always, another very enjoyable video. Because I am on a disability income right now, I can't give money, so I just want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart. You are the best.
FWIW, the 'paper' clips you referenced are called Bull Clips. and, yeah, they work a wonder. i recommend using the plastic ones you can get from Staples, they don't grip as hard as the metal ones, which means it won't dent the heck out of your edges when gluing them up.
Great video even if you don't make those little shelves or drawers it still facilitates making boxes for different gifts for Christmas or items to be shipped that you have made . Thank you for all your videos
Right! I always hate buying boxes for some gifts and those boxes are never the right size anyway. I'm going to start making customs boxes for a lot of storage around the house. I'll tell my wife its "shabby chic"
Came across your channel quite by accident I just happen to be building a cardboard box for a garden collection of files and scissors and bits and bobs that I would need to keep records of my garden activity anyway I love the way that you’ve created this and I might even try it thanks for all the tips
It would be so cool to have a cut file for this for the Cricut maker. It can cut single thickness cardboard. For the double thick cardboard it could just draw or score the pattern on to make cutting by hand easier.
Speaking about Canadian Economy when a woodworker of THAT level cannot afford wood in Canada(!!!) any more and has to repurpose used delivery cardboards! 😅😅😅 But to be as much serious as video allows - great project, going to try it with my daughter. Thank you, John!
Cardboard is plenty strong and durable. I built a cardboard Version of the Statue of Liberty over thirty years ago and she still stands pretty the same way as back then.
NO SE NECESITA TANTA INTELIGENCIA PARA ÉSO. LA FORMULA ES: INTERÉS, DISTRIBUIR EL ESPACIO SEGUN LA SUPERFICIE. MÁS DIFÍCIL ES LLEVAR A UN ENFERMO DE CIRUGÍA CARDIOVASCULAR Y SE LLEVAN SIN TANTA INTELIGENCIA. HACE MÁS EL QUE QUIERE , QYE EL QUE PUEDE
Wow! Finally! Creative, innovative use of an underrated, underappreciated material that I have known about, used, and been chided about for decades. Kudos to you John Heisz for presenting and advocating for this terrific material!
I have to admit, I'm wishing hadn't thrown away my cardboard in the recycle bin ♻️ that the trash man picked up on Friday 🤦♂️. I'd have that much more on hand to make something! I'd like to make something out of cardboard just because now! This looks to be oddly satisfying 😌 in some ways. This also gives me some ideas for using cardboard to build prototypes before having to sell my left lung 🫁 for my more lumber 😒 🤔. Thanks John, for the ideas, video and creativity 👊 🤜 🤛!
While I admit this was a fun detour, I can't help but to equate this video with some of those "depression era cooking recipe" videos. John, you start making an organizer out of cat food and we are in some real trouble.
I really like the idea of building things from cardboard from a prototyping perspective. Often times how we envision things working and how we actually work doesn't line up, so making a cardboard version is a relatively low cost way of seeing if the proposed solution actually works. Eventually one can upgrade to a nicer version. Nothing sucks more than committing a bunch of times and materials to a project only to find that it doesn't work for your personal process.
I’m literally sitting in my garage trying to think of things to store all my bolts and stuff. This is brilliant. I have some coreflut(plastic cardboard). Righto let’s get cracking
It’s crazy the price of wood . And when you are a tiny RUclips show with no independent income and the price of electric has quadrupled it’s tough to do projects . Sorry for the rant. Amazing project

High lumber prices putting the brakes on your creative endeavours?
Got too many small parts cluttering up your existence?
Is cardboard becoming a real problem due to all of the crap you buy on Amazon that you don't need?
Well, here's the solution!
You can actually make some pretty sweet stuff from cardboard, like this nifty parts organizer with drawers. You say it won't last, but you, my friend, would be dead wrong - it will last for years, even with regular use. And you can get a lot more fancy than I did here, and be much more selective about the quality of the cardboard you use. It's FREE, after all!
Next: a cardboard table saw!!
Hi John, Thanks,,, Tip use white duct tape to strengthen and good contrast for Sharpie writing.
You're hawking Slot and Phillips head screw drivers ? What kind of Canadian are you ? Robertson FTW
>Next: a cardboard table saw!!
This made me laugh, because you could probably do it.
In the words of Adam Savage, cardboard is the gateway drug to making.
I was a corrugated structural design intern for a bit, so I might actually have something to add!
- when you crease/fold board, the outside dimension will half the board-thickness longer than your crease, and the inside dimension will be half the thickness narrower. Because of, this, it's very easy to lay out designs perfectly from the start, only measuring during layout, as long as your cuts are accurate (we used CNC)
- creases that need to be more accurately placed (like the ones describing the width of the drawers) should be made across the flutes. Creases made with the flutes tend to drift into the nearest flute.
- creases should be indented to about half the thickness of the board. The outside liner will be stretched taught and pulled in to that point, and the inside liner will buckle to meet it.
- creases should be made on the inside of a curve. Creases that need to be made backward are usually made with a perforation (so you can work from one side only).
- to build a pull-tab into the structure, cut an upside-down U-shape into the front outside wall of the drawer, with the "legs" touching the bottom crease line. BUT, don't extend the crease across that shape. When you fold it, it should stick out straight like the one you glued on, but without adding thickness. You can use this to made tabs for closing cereal boxes, and on on the bottom of boxes if you want them to stack into slots on top of other boxes.
Where can I find this info ?
I'm thinking if you made a video of all this cardboard folding info, you'd have a really good view count! Thanks!
I assume the width of the crease must come into play with measurements. Using the back of a butter knife vs an 1/8" thick ruler, for example?
@@wingnutbert9685 The width of the crease should be negligible if you use a reasonably thin tool. Very wide tools result in more of a radius emerging than a sharp corner.

You could use a silicone spray like Campdry. I used to spray my sleeping bags and camp gear.
John's paper table saw blade would actually be perfect for this 🤣 ruclips.net/video/rYfkhdKcEiE/видео.html
You could also just use some contact paper. It would be the cardboard equivalent of a laminate/melamine top! 😄
Sorry, John ! I forgot to use the "sarcasm" font -- again. (sigh)
@@KSFWG I did get the sarcasm...but the contact paper is just a good idea. Also, the "laminate top" thing...I thought that was cute. Just sayin.

Woodworking at it's best! Awesome idea.
This is genius. And I immediately ordered the screwdriver set!
I live in a poor place and will give this a try, if I could report your video as "one of the best I've seen this week" I would
Brilliant I never get enough of your content here I guess some kind of genius is my eyes
Origami for wood workers. Love the repurposing creativity.
It keeps boxes out of a landfill.
You cheap bastard!! This is absolutely BRILLIANT!! Going off to build one of my own per your plans. Awesome!
This would be good for Lego storage as well
Shellac makes a great finish for cardboard. Fun project, thanks.
I was just thinking it needed some kind of finish, shellac is the right one.
This speaks to the child in me making storage containers out of cardboard and erector set pieces. Thanks for the trip down memory lane!
I am looking to make a cardboard drawer insert in my bookshelf and this was by far the best video I found. Thank your!

Will be trying this soon! While thinking about how I could go about painting it to make it look nice as well
reminds me of some of my creative builds back in college.

Cool idea, and I'm a drawer collector guy. I was surprised you didn't make a template or use the first drawer you cut out as one.Thanks
I love it, so cool. Hopefully the novelty of the video does well for you.
Great video even if you don't make those little shelves or drawers it still facilitates making boxes for different gifts for Christmas or items to be shipped that you have made .
Thank you for all your videos
Right! I always hate buying boxes for some gifts and those boxes are never the right size anyway.
I'm going to start making customs boxes for a lot of storage around the house. I'll tell my wife its "shabby chic"
Very cool. Work with what you got No excuses

But to be as much serious as video allows - great project, going to try it with my daughter.
Thank you, John!
We in the UK were making these in the 1980's we used to have a TV programme called "BLUE PETER"....
A cardboard project. The only project where you'll see John use wood glue! 😜
Thanks a video for us poor folks.
This is a wood project since cardboard is wood after all.
Velveeta boxes are ideal for this, but what's the fun in that? They even come in two sizes.
Cardboard is plenty strong and durable. I built a cardboard Version of the Statue of Liberty over thirty years ago and she still stands pretty the same way as back then.

Clothes pins also works. Olde school.

Thats really cool, John. I bet it's a lot strong than it appears
Excellent work
Great idea. I have always liked your creativity.
Finally I can do something with cardboard instead of filling my green can I think I'll make one of these for the kids room
Impressive work as always 👍
Nice job ,gonna give it a try
Good stuff! We had a restaurant here in LA that had chairs made of cardboard.
Would LOVE to see more cardboard projects
While I admit this was a fun detour, I can't help but to equate this video with some of those "depression era cooking recipe" videos. John, you start making an organizer out of cat food and we are in some real trouble.
My exact thought. My grandma told me stories of putting ketchup in water and dipping saltines into it. John's social commentary is always on point.😏
I'd say "real trouble" is a pretty good description of the state the world is in today.
I really like the idea of building things from cardboard from a prototyping perspective. Often times how we envision things working and how we actually work doesn't line up, so making a cardboard version is a relatively low cost way of seeing if the proposed solution actually works. Eventually one can upgrade to a nicer version. Nothing sucks more than committing a bunch of times and materials to a project only to find that it doesn't work for your personal process.
sticking with the depression era theme, this evokes storage cabs I've seen made with cardboard cigar boxes and wooden cheese boxes as the drawers.

Excellent idea
It’s crazy the price of wood . And when you are a tiny RUclips show with no independent income and the price of electric has quadrupled it’s tough to do projects . Sorry for the rant. Amazing project
