Got your plans a year ago-just now starting the build. Got everything cut up, now just waiting for the router bit to come from Amazon tomorrow to cut the dadoes and assemble. Very excited-it feels like waiting for Santa. Your plans are detailed and easy for a beginner like me to follow, and I LOVE your videos, especially the occasional snafu and how you fix it. Thank you, and keep up the great work!
Cracking build Marie and now you have more wood to play with, now that you have removed the old one ready for dismantling into a new project. Stay Safe, Barry (ENG)
Well, this is timely! I've annexed off a chunk of my shop for my wife to store gardening supplies and this cart will be perfect for my smaller space. Thanks!
I just finished building this today. I really liked the plans, simple to follow. My plywood wasn’t as nice, but it works. The one thing I want to add is a spot to keep dowel rod on the side. I would suggest that if you are going to build this, do it some place with some room. My basement shop was pretty tight, but I did it. Thanks for a great design for a small shop!
"I don't know why but I hang on to every little scrap of wood", rarely has something resonated so deeply with me. Every, single, little scrap. I've been thinking about it a lot, and I think woodworkers have a respect for wood, that even though it does literally grow on trees, it isn't infinite, and we should cherish every piece we get to work with. Hanging on to scraps feels less wasteful, more sustainable, and treats each piece with more respect. Also, it means you have pieces that are just waiting to be used
Even with the add on side cart it takes up so much less room. Amazing how all the stuff on the old cart fit in the new one. I have a sheet of plywood that I keep storing. Just need to use it!!!
If you’re like me, you would need to keep both carts to store all of your scraps! P.S. I just finished building this. I bought your plans. It came out good and I didn’t even bother with making dadoes. I just used wood glue and screws on the dividers. 🙂
I enjoyed the video and bought the plan. The plan is very detailed and easy to follow. I built the “sidecar” on the back of the cart to permit storage of taller pieces.
Nice! I built your original lumber cart a few years ago and I am also realizing how much space it actually takes up. I may need to downsize to this new one as well. Thanks, Marie!
Love it! If I ever change my workshop around again (if...HA...who am I kidding), your new lumber cart will definitely be kept in mind. Great job as always.
Wow -- what a transformation. Isn't it interesting how one learns to economize over time. Really smart and functional design. Love your videos -- always informative and a pleasure to watch. Great audio editing on driving the screws -- fun to listen to. And thanks for the great router tips!
I'm sitting in my garage needing this exact cart. Thank you so much for the plans and the great instruction video. I'm sure it will take me the whole weekend, but it will sure be worth the time! Guytex...
Slick! I build the original cart, but have the same issue in terms of space, etc., so time to build your new version. As always, great ideas and execution. Thanks
I’ve just completed my own cart by following your excellent plans. It looks great and it has tidied up my workshop by storing loads of spare lumber which has been lying around and getting in the way for too long. Thank you so much. I’m looking forward to trying another one of your projects. Thank you once again. Peter
Been meaning to build a lumber cart, was going to build a bigger one based on April Wilkerson or Steve Ramsey builds, but honestly given the small size of my shop I think this one looks perfect! Thanks!
Love the new cart! I built a version of you old cart ages ago, and I also found it taking up a lot of space. I like this new version, and may have to update my shop!
Like it, I already have a large plywood rack but don’t have a great solution for small cut offs, hardwood scrap etc. the slots for plastic bins set this one apart from the other TH-cam racks. Given the craftsman tools and Princess Auto reference I figured you were a fellow Canadian then I saw the channel name 😉. Greetings and thanks from Saskatchewan
you are absolutely amazing!! I just started carpentry, I dont have all the amzing power machinery you have, just a dewalt drill...Cheap mini circular saw (that am scared to death of & now learing to use .... A miter saw am also scared of🤣 but am still trying. I build a shou sugi ban table that has a lot of faults.....no matter how much i measure and use levelers nothing is straight smh....... but i have hope!!! I wish your videos showed you making the same stuff with basic tools along with measurement. But i do learn still from you thank you🙏
Hello Montreal! I enjoyed watching this vid. My shop is one half of a 2 car garage. I've had wood scattered everywhere that I had to address. Your cart was too big for the space I had for one but adapted your design to make one that works for me. Thanks!
I'm only 20seconds into the video, but first impression is.. your current lumber cart pretty darn good already! Can't wait to see what you come up with :)
Ha thanks! Totally loved that cart and it served me well, but it was time to reclaim some floor space in my single car garage shop. Every square foot is precious!
Very nice! I built your larger lumber cart a while back and have been very pleased with it. I made a few modifications including building a long "sidecar" on the far side of the horizontal shelves, which I use for dado storage.
No size or amount of wood is scrap. As you've very nicely proved in this presentation. I just wish they would be referred to as Off-cuts. Rant over, brilliant project by a very brilliant presenter. Please keep them coming.
You Make some cool stuff I’m making a cart for scrap wood modified alittle ,alittle Wider and I put the sheet goods in back but I love your ideas Andy best of any body
I watched this a year ago. I think this is the cart I need to build. The one I have is too big and not very mobile. It’s too heavy for me to move and I can’t get to the sheet good on it. 2024 is my year for organization. It’s definitely time. JUST bought the plans.
How am I supposed to convince my wife I need a two car garage for my workshop when you create amazing projects in the space of a one car? :) Really enjoy your vids!
Fantastic work, Marie! Nicely done!!! 😃 I need to make something like that as well! As soon as it gets cold enough here in Brazil, so I can work in my workshop, I'm going to buy your plans! 😃 Anyway, stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
I remember when you built the 1st version, I like the smaller version, and im sure it will force you to decide what to keep and what to toss... my rack looks just like your 1st version cluttered with me trying to keep it all... since you know Wood is now trading at a higher value than Gold haha
I like a lot about this cart. I plan to store hardwood bits in one plastic bin and soft/plywood in the other. wood that doesn't fit and is less desirable will go in my smokeless fire pit. I'll buy the plan to support another woman woodworker.

Thank you very much.
Finally, someone had great ideas on not gluing cabinets for renovations or replacement which impossible with gluing. Great Job.

OMG that's freakin' awesome! everything you've build in that shop is gorgeous! I think I'm tearing up with envy.
Marie,😀 is so nice to see you again.
All the best to you. 🤗
The cart is great but the routing jig alone is worth everything. That’s brilliant!!!
Cracking build Marie and now you have more wood to play with, now that you have removed the old one ready for dismantling into a new project.

Sold it to one lucky fellow, so it will live on 😊

The small storage bins beneath are genius!
Built it more or less to this and fits quite a lot. A 2 hour project that cleaned up the shop quite a bit. Cheers for the inspiration!
Even with the add on side cart it takes up so much less room. Amazing how all the stuff on the old cart fit in the new one. I have a sheet of plywood that I keep storing. Just need to use it!!!
Very timely, this is something I desperately need and don’t have a lot of space, so this may be the answer, thanks! 👍
Great project. I have built it without the dividers with half an inch plywood. It is what I've needed for all my wood laying around. Thank you.
If you’re like me, you would need to keep both carts to store all of your scraps! P.S. I just finished building this. I bought your plans. It came out good and I didn’t even bother with making dadoes. I just used wood glue and screws on the dividers. 🙂

this is the perfect size lumber cart for my small workshop. thanks!
Great addition to any shop - I'll start mine now. Thanks for the detailed video.
Great smaller version, thank you for sharing your awesome project with us today from Henrico County Virginia
Great cart! Footprint is a little big for my space but I love the no-nonsense approach to your video production.
Amazing! I've been searching for a good lumber cart that fits my needs and this is great! Thank you for the wonderful video.
So glad it helped. Thank you!
Just completed the cart you designed. Very impressed with the clarity of the plans. They were very easy to understand. Thank you.
Nice! I built your original lumber cart a few years ago and I am also realizing how much space it actually takes up. I may need to downsize to this new one as well. Thanks, Marie!
Simple, compact, functional and looks good too.
I’m a fan.
Bought the plan, saving up for the plywood.
Gave you an up vote for this thought. Skip the glue. Screws are sufficient and it leaves open the option to reuse the lumber in the future
Love the jig! I've been looking for a quick and easy jig for this type of datto work.
Really nice, Marie. Now you have additional wood from the old cart, too.
Bill
Sold it to a happy new owner who will care for it 😉
Love it! If I ever change my workshop around again (if...HA...who am I kidding), your new lumber cart will definitely be kept in mind. Great job as always.
Laugh now, but you know it inevitably always happens!
I found what helped with the amount of scraps I accumulated was to buy a wood fired pizza oven. Good vidio Thanks
Haha 😄 love the idea
Wow -- what a transformation. Isn't it interesting how one learns to economize over time. Really smart and functional design. Love your videos -- always informative and a pleasure to watch. Great audio editing on driving the screws -- fun to listen to. And thanks for the great router tips!
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it 😊
This is perfect for my shop
Love that side attachment!
Thanks for a great, simple. sturdy panel !
Thanks a bunch! Beats the older cart, fer sure!
I'm sitting in my garage needing this exact cart. Thank you so much for the plans and the great instruction video. I'm sure it will take me the whole weekend, but it will sure be worth the time! Guytex...
Love this! Beautiful grain on that plywood and it's the perfect mama bear size 🙂 I think this will be my first project.
Slick! I build the original cart, but have the same issue in terms of space, etc., so time to build your new version. As always, great ideas and execution. Thanks

Nice video, clear instructions. Cart is a space saver! You know wood scraps multiply when stored together. Mahalo for sharing! : )
Wow! What a fantastic storage unit. Thank you for sharing
Been meaning to build a lumber cart, was going to build a bigger one based on April Wilkerson or Steve Ramsey builds, but honestly given the small size of my shop I think this one looks perfect! Thanks!
Awesome, glad you like it!
Great! Thanks for your instruction! It's time to clean up.
Awesome tools you have.

Love this design
Thanks, happy to hear that!
Totally need to build this smaller cart. Love the old full sized one but space is always an issue.
This cart is awesome, I was amazed at how much it holds. Gained some valuable floor space for more stuff!

Nice router guide/jig! I like it
Looks great! I should build a few of these.
Awesome, definitely a great addition to any workspace 👍
"I don't know why but I hold on to every single little piece of scrap wood I have" That's not a problem for woodworkers more of a trait.
My thoughts exactly! lol
Love it, need to build one for my new shop but first the outfeed table. I'm so excited
Enjoy the builds!
@@DIYMontreal Thanks, I hope haha
Very nice! I built your larger lumber cart a while back and have been very pleased with it. I made a few modifications including building a long "sidecar" on the far side of the horizontal shelves, which I use for dado storage.
Nice! Nothing wrong with the old design. Will miss it... but happy to have reclaimed some space in the shop.

Nice job, enjoyed watching.
Great vid (as always)
Thanks, appreciate it!
Great design! I have a compact shop and this is what I need!
Good work!! My favorite woodworker!!
Great video! The quality of your editing has improved significantly over time. Very well done!
Thanks appreciate it!
One lesson learned: if I’m going to use plastic trays, I buy them first. Size openings to ensure they fit. Thanks for the video.
Absolutely! Bought these bins first. Left a link to these exact ones in the description for anyone who plans to build this.
Love your work. So near and organized. This is my next project.
i like that tray thingy at the bottom, handy
Very nice build!!
I watched this a year ago. I think this is the cart I need to build. The one I have is too big and not very mobile. It’s too heavy for me to move and I can’t get to the sheet good on it. 2024 is my year for organization. It’s definitely time. JUST bought the plans.
Robertson head screws, if the channel name didnt give it away, those screws would have. Very nice work. Subscribed.
Another fantabulous job! 👍
Thank you! Cheers!
Merci pour cette mise à jour.
How am I supposed to convince my wife I need a two car garage for my workshop when you create amazing projects in the space of a one car? :) Really enjoy your vids!
😂 sorry!
Nice work as always!
Just made one for myself, exactly like yours, great video, great cart!
This is great! I love how tidy you are 😍. Congrats for the work. It’s inspiring. Your tools are also very useful. Keep uploading videos 😉
Thanks! Will do 👍
So nice looking. Awesome job!
Bravo!
Thank you!
Thank you for the video and sketch.
Great idea! I need similar.
Very nice...
Thanks!
Your jigs are FANTASTIC!!!
Very nice!
Enjoyed the video and cart turned out really nice! I'm sure it will be very useful.
Great video and amazing project🥰
Awesome work!
Fantastic work, Marie! Nicely done!!! 😃
I need to make something like that as well! As soon as it gets cold enough here in Brazil, so I can work in my workshop, I'm going to buy your plans! 😃
Anyway, stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Super Projekt
Thanks. Great Job 👍
it is nice cart. thank you.
I remember when you built the 1st version, I like the smaller version, and im sure it will force you to decide what to keep and what to toss... my rack looks just like your 1st version cluttered with me trying to keep it all... since you know Wood is now trading at a higher value than Gold haha
Was definitely not easy pitting come in the burn pile and tossing others, but boy does it feel good now that it's done!
Nice job!
I like a lot about this cart. I plan to store hardwood bits in one plastic bin and soft/plywood in the other. wood that doesn't fit and is less desirable will go in my smokeless fire pit. I'll buy the plan to support another woman woodworker.
That leftover spot... router table? Bandsaw? Sander? It's the right size for a new tool, we know how this goes! 😇
Don't know yet! Been looking for a permanent spot for my bandsaw but may need to reconfigure things.
Great idea and good video - thank you. What is the fancy countersink bit you use? Peter.
New addition to the shop! Must admit I splurged on this Amana tools countersink bit but totally worth it amzn.to/36fqud2
