How to Make a Patio Deck Box // Pool Storage
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 27 май 2024
- For today's project I'm tackling some organization - but not in the shop! We have a pool in backyard and we love it, but the pool accessories can get a bit out of hand. Storing them out of sight can be difficult if you don't have anywhere to put them so I thought I'd solve that! This deck box will also serve as a table for entertaining and a home for our pool robot (is that a poolba?).
The construction is pretty easy and is made from treated 2x4's and cedar boards. All of the materials I'm using for this build are meant to live outside. What I don't want living INSIDE are bugs and critters so I took some extra steps to seal up this box.
I hope you enjoy the video, and if you have a similar problem, maybe this will give you some ideas for how to solve it. I don't have specific plans on this box but I tried to include as much detail as possible so you could make one of your own. Enjoy!

I'm impressed that your garage has space for a wood shop, home gyme, and a Corvette.
It was nice that you helped your wife put that box together 😊. At least that is the way it is at my house. Built a big outdoor shed last Fall and my wife helped holding the level when I was setting forms for the concrete base. Weekends later when friends were over for dinner she had to show everybody the shed WE built ! When I peeled potatoes for Thanksgiving I asked everybody if they enjoyed the meal we made. Apparently she didn't see the humor. Last time I do that ! 😁
😂👍🏼
I like how you were able to make the top of the deck box flush with your grill. Doubles as more prep/serving area for parties! Awesome build!
Very nice pool crap hider!!
😎👍🏼
Welcome back!...you were missed...your product is unique...spotted your “lifestyle change” for you and your beautiful wife...congrats...now begins your real education!...revisit us whenever you can...we’re always here for you...thanks so much
M Plussant good eye! And thank you, it’s very appreciated
“Pool crap” 😂. I can totally relate.
Simple and beautiful 🇵🇸❤️🕊
I love it
Respect and love from Jerusalem Palestine 🇵🇸
Dammm bro that was a nice build
Great job, and yeah a handle and gas struts could be cool, especially for the kids when they get older, so they don’t hurt themselves.
This was a really great video--loved the dogs interrupting. Also, Roll Tide!
Beautiful work! You are so handsome!
Am I gonna have to be the first one to praise the "floppy taco" mention in this video? Ok, fine... Great build by the way. I would def like to build something very similar.
Good work! Much better than the plastic one we have. I guess I need to build one of these and make the other one disappear.
Cool project, that pool robot is the bane of my existence. I had to rebuild it twice in 6 months. Went back to to a pressure side cleaner.
Yikes, had good luck with ours so far
Don't worry even the best of us need a break keep up the good work love your videos are excellent professional but with a little edge of humor just right
Great deck storage ! Thank you for sharing!
So many things to like here. Congrats on the future addition to the family! The off the cuff "we're doing it live" and above all #GBO
glad you started making again
Looks great so much better than just having pool crap laying around - like I do.
Great videos man! Love the channel especially the cabinet build
Definitely jealous of your garage. Pretty sweet setup
Nice job Trav
Always enjoy your content. Thank you for your time and efforts. Always look forward to seeing what’s next. All the best
Great build!
Great video, I really appreciate the sense of humor. Glad to see your channel taking off like it has!
OK, you're making me re-design my back yard storage box...Not really, I'll just copy yours. Also in Texas and same issue with the wasps, I'll need to take same measures. Great looking build!
Looks good. Your wife is crazy for wanting it darker!!! At least you’re the one that has to live with her!!! Keep up the good work. Definitely enjoying your videos!!
Looks good. Also I like the guard dogs
Looks great---
That turned out very nice. I'm going to try building one.
Nice build man
”Redneck furniture” hahaha love it!!
Sick build man!
Looks great. Well done!
Looks good!
Awesome deck box. I love it. Good sense of humor too...👍
Awesome looks great.
Just found your channel. It’s great subscribed right away
I am in a similar situation where I just installed a pool and have a lot of crap around for it. I also looked at buying something but nothing really matched what I wanted to do. My situation is a bit different where the box will be up a bit higher but your ideas and suggestions, especially about bug proofing, are great tips. I really like the cedar finish.
"doin' it live!!"....love it!
Hey now...
I love it. I'm trying to make extra storage on my deck for clothing and comforters when the season changes but also have it has table or seating and saw your video. I also love the furr baby's they so cute. Also congratations to you and your wife with the new addition to the family. May God bless you and your family. Can't wait to see what you do next.
I gave you two thumbs up for the dogs...
That was a very nice job dude 👍
and your dogs are cool 🐶
Nice job. About to build one myself. Liked your idea for putting screen on the bottom.
Nice project and Go Vols!
Nicely done! Box and video 👍🏽👍🏽
Great video, thank you.
Just joined. Amazing projects. Am in envy. Hope all is well with your new addition to the family and the dogs are hilarious. Thanks for making this channel.
Wow!! Amazing.

This is awesome. Wish you could build mine lol
Nice Project! Thank you for the inspiration!!!!!!!!!! KEEP IT UP!!!!!!!!!!!!
Appreciate it!
Perfect.
Good job
aWesome build, aWesome helper
Glad to hear you’ll be making more videos. Your videos are very entertaining and informative. Infotainment. Nice work once again. Any new equipment - shop or video?
My friend was using a “user friendly” brad nail gun when the brad diverted and imbedded itself in his face next to his eye. Half an inch more, and he would have lost an eye. I’m a first believer in wearing eye protection, with any type of woodworking activity. Take my advise for what it is worth, always wear eye protection. I loved your storage box design and will definitely make one for my outside compressor. Thanks!
😳😐
Good job! And Roll Tide!
god job .,.,congratulations gretings from argentina
Gracias!
Go Vols. Subscribed.
♥️♥️♥️ your wife is adorable!
I agree!
Nice build. But I have to agree with your wife on the stain color. 😂
Very nice build~! I have a couple of heavy duty deck boxes by the pool and on the deck that we bought years ago, but your video gave me a great idea for making them mobile and bug-proof at the same time. I've been trying to figure a way to block critters (roaches in Georgia) from the drain holes/slots without completely blocking them up and seeing the window screen on the base of yours planted the seed. Thanks much~!!
Awesome!
Great video. I plan on doing this but a little taller for a garbage box. I’m in Canada and raccoons destroy all of the cheap rubber/plastic box store garbage boxes. Thanks for sharing this video; well done.
THANK YOU
Awesome. No manufacturer makes deck boxes that are long enough. I was trying to figure out a waterproof way to store the frame poles for my wife's fancy pro art show canopy...which are about 6 feet even when collapsed.
You could really carve out a niche for yourself with this...maybe with one continuous compartment instead of two.
Thats great. I can totally hear my wife saying the same thing... But awesome build.
Nice
Great build; very helpful. Too bad lumber is so expensive in NA now. As such, I'm making my box frame out of very old, but treated 4x4s and skinning in cedar that I have a little left over from previous projects.
Subscribed.
"red neck furniture" ouch!
I see you change the angle of the nail gun at each nail. Does that actually help increase holding power?
No idea, figured it would help!
Loved the vid. You make it look so simple. Love the dogs hahahaha and your wife is so cute. God bless your family!!! So, can I order one of these?
Dog named Pita: Unless I'm wrong, it doesn't refer to bread....
Great video and workmanship. Approximately how much was it in materials?
this is awesome. i need something very similar so i may steal some of this. I am a beginner and want to make something that hides the electric outlets that come out of the ground next to the pool paver deck. they are all caddywampus. i'd like to have a area for the robot, and then a cupboard like area for the alexa- it needs shade. I may make mine more like a dresser/armoire.
Step 1: Snap your fingers.... Done. Nice job dude!
i loved the video. Do you think you could do one on say a little bigger one. like a Combo two trash can and bike storage? Thank you so much
Where can we find the exact plan ?
Great project. I have the same problem. This looks like a solution. Do you remember the general materials cost of this project.?
Now you need to level the grill to match the box. :-)
Very cool. I hate finishing as well. I would rather sand than stain or paint.
🍻
Great video, just in time for summer. Approx how much did this cost for materials?
Go Vols!
Shop Nation, how long were your cedar siding slats? Also, on the top, it looks like you had a piece of trim between the fixed cover over the pool cleaner and the hinged lid. How did you do that?
Would this double as a couch/bench for sitting on if made lower? Would it be strong enough structure-wise?
Looking into building a couch of some kind with storage for my soon-to-come balcony.
What software do you use to make your plans? I’m learning and upcoming, would be nice to have and useful to have a good one to plan my DIY’s thank you and make more videos. I know it’s a process but your ideas and touch on things are great modern and clean. Keep up the hard work
Chris, my biggest piece of advice is keep it simple! My preferred method to plan out a project is still pencil and paper. For more complex projects or 3D printing projects, I use Fusion360. Lots of resources on RUclips to learn it too.
Shop Nation will do, thank you
Great video! Would this stand up to the extreme Nevada heat and sun or would you recommend a different wood/stain?
That is a great question, I’m sure the materials are fine you would just need to reapply more frequently I would think
Looks good you should miter your corners
when you get the screws?
Is that a 1x2 separating the top door from the smaller top section? You can see it at 8:42.
Awesome work and congrats on the baby!!
This is exactly what I was looking for. My son's toys and our pool s**t get all over the place and drives me 🤪.
Thanks for the upload and the tips about bug control. Would that screening work to keep out squirrels and raccoons too?
@Shop Nation, what kind of tip were you using to pre drill your screw holes, I see it looks like it buries the screw? What is that please my good man?
