Small Mobile Lumber CartWhile reorganizing the workshop, I finally took some time to build a scrap lumber cart. My shop is not large, so I needed a proportionally-sized scrap cart. Of course, all research for shop organization starts here at LJ, and I found Ron Stewart's cart to be just the thing for my needs. (Thanks, Ron!)I used Ron's dimensions and pocket-screw assembly for mine as well, and it went together easily. I spent one day laying out the pieces and cutting them from HD 3/4” baltic birch plywood, and another day drilling the pocket holes and putting it all together.I added an access hole at the bottom of the long panels at the rear. I just know I'm going to drop something down there at some point, and I thought it prudent to add a hole where I can retrieve whatever it happens to be.The Amazon caster set came with some bolts, which I installed in a plywood mounting plate. I counter-bored a hole nearly the size of the bolt head, and one good smack with a hammer seated into place. Instant captive bolt.This was a fun, quick project. If it doesn't hold all the scraps I have, I'm in trouble. :)
