HOW TO ADD THE END CABINET ONTO THE HARBOR FREIGHT TOOL CART 64721 & 56237 #WorkingWithWimberley Episode 173 - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
My dude is cutting and grinding metal in his kitchen! Respect!
My wife was cool with it although I did clean up after myself! 😂
I was going to say he must live alone 😂
@@harrynutsack5173 First off, hilarious username! And my wife is an angel, so I got away with it.
Cabinet on each side would be freaking awesome
I’ve never seen anyone do that. It would definitely be something to see!
@@WorkingWithWimberley thinking the same thing cuz ultimately it might be cheaper than that 44 in lol
@@Cbsaiyan I can tell you that the setup I have has been awesome. Much better than what I had before. It’s not cheap, but it’s worth the money.
I have one with the end cabinet on both sides
Beautiful cabinet!!!!!
Only recommendation I'd make is to add a caster wheel to the end cabinet to help distribute the weight better.
Thanks for the tip!
A guy who modifies and cuts his steel cabinet in the kitchen of his house, is a man’s man, king of his castle, or single?!?! 😂
Great video and I’ll be doing this mod, safely in the garage
😂 I’m happily married and my wife didn’t even give me a hard time about it!
We’ll done. I have seen quite a few of these side cabinets attached to the side like this. Perhaps US General should take note and do this in the factory. Great job and thank you for posting.
That would be a good idea. It would save us some work! I’m glad the video helped!
This is the cleanest install I have seen from all the other videos on TH-cam. Great job!
Thank you! Much appreciated!
I would agree!!! Seen enough to ask, why not buy bigger box. Saw this one video and now looking at this set-up.
I have watched a few of these mods, and you, by far have done the best job attaching the end cabinet of them all!! Excellent job!
Thanks! I’m glad the video helped! Two cuts is all it takes.
@@WorkingWithWimberley By any chance, do you know if on the 26" US general series 2 box, can you switch out some of the smaller depth drawers with the bigger ones? Like order replacement drawers and swap them? im liking the 26" and would defintely add the top chest but it just has too many small 3" drawers and would like to have at least 4-5 deep drawers. I would add the end cabinet too to complete the whole toolbox but then the width of the end cabinet is too small lol. Any ideas? thanks and awesome job on the mod bro looks super clean. Think you can do the same to the 34" 6 drawer? cuz I have one but would be pretty awesome to add an end cabinet to it haha
Beautifully done, my friend! I just bought this setup for my home. I'm glad I came across your video because the one I watched before this was a hatchet job...like it looked like he actually tried cutting it with a hatchet, then beating it back into place. THIS is how I'm putting mine together tomorrow. Thank you
😂 You’re welcome! I’m glad the video helped! 2 cuts is all it takes.
I saw that shit too 🤣
Great job. I would’ve loved to see it after the clean up with the touch up paints. I’m sure this will help a lot of people!
You can see it in the garage. Thank you!
Awe. Adorable.
@@IMKINDOFABIGDEAL13 😂 Thanks.
Great Job.
Easy to tackle, never thought about expanding my simple cart, till now.
Will definitely be doing soon.
Awesome! The cart has been super useful since adding the cabinet.
Very nice. I love seeing these types of mods. I never thought to put an extra cabinet on the roll cart.
Thanks! It’s really useful.
Nice work! I have the same 5-drawer cart for all of my bicycle specific tools and parts. The end piece for me would be great for a small worktop space and additional tool storage!
You’re welcome! I’m glad the video helped! I really like this setup.
Cut off grinder in the house..Love it!
Yeah, it wasn't the best idea but it worked out! 😂
I just bought one of the 5 drawer tool boxes for work and after seeing your video with the side cabinet, I’m adding that too! Great video and you didn’t butcher the box in the process!
Thanks! If you’re careful, you could make even smaller cuts than what I did. It’s super convenient having the extra storage. I was just literally working on it a second ago!
Excellent! I have to wait two weeks for my side cabinet to come in but I’m excited to get it set up.
@@stacyl8627 Awesome! Hopefully it’s comes in sooner.
Compared to the other videos of this process, yours is much more clean and precise; I try to run my shop equipment the same way so it's nice to see!
Awesome!! Thanks! And you can even do smaller cuts than what I did. There’s no need to hack up the cart and cabinet. 👍🏽👌🏽
This is awesome. i've never seen this combo. I've seen people double up the 5-drawer or I've seen them hang the side cart on the full-bank. This looks great. I hope it's still working for you!
Thank you! It certainly is working for me. I still don’t even have all the compartments full. It’s really nice to know exactly where everything is. It’s been awesome.
Made your mods it works great just mounted the cabinet a few days ago, thanks!
You’re welcome! I’m glad the video helped!
Nice work! Thanks for the clarity
You’re welcome! I’m glad the video helped!
Nice, definitely gonna do this mod. I need more space for my work cart. Might even add my side tray to the cabinet. Don’t want to waste it 😂 thanks for sharing
You’re welcome! I’m glad the video helped! This cart/cabinet has been awesome since I’ve had it.
Looks awesome. Well done!! 👍
Thank you! It’s a really nice mod.
I like that addon! Not gonna lie never thought about doing it till today, gonna buy it tomorrow and do the same thing to mine with the tray off the side of the addon box!
They discontinued the end cabinet that I have. The replacement is part # 70354.
Great video 💯 just what I was looking for
Thanks! I’m glad the video helped!
Really clean job, good to see
Thanks! And awesome TH-cam name! 😂
you did a awesome job i may just have to go to harbor freight and get one of those end cabinets!!!!
You’re welcome! I’m glad the video helped! I really like this setup. It’s much better than what I had before.
Been wanting to do this to mine. Thanks for showing how this is done
You’re welcome! I’m glad the video helped!
Awesome job sir. That looks fantastic
Thank you! It works great too!
Damn sparks just flyin in the house 😂
Yes! 😂 And my angel of a wife forgave me!
Bro, this is genius. Going to go buy a cabinet an do it and do the same setup. You the man!
Thanks! 😂 I’m not the first to do it, but I wanted to share my method.
It does look really good , great job !
Thanks!
looks good and thanks for sharing!
You’re welcome! I’m glad the video helped!
Bravo!! Best video Ive seen this week!
Thanks! I’m glad you enjoyed it!
Good job. Looks better than I imagined
Thanks!
Big up on the video, insightful and helpful
Thanks! I’m glad the video helped!
Nice and clean, well done.
Thanks! It’s worked out nicely!
Wow that looks awesome great job.
Thanks! It’s been working out great to hold my tools too.
Nice mod. Great video, right to the point.
Thanks!!!
Nice work and good ingenuity
Thanks! The tool cart has been awesome to have in the garage.
Looks good going to getting a end cabinet for my 44” box I just got
Thanks! That’s awesome. The tool cart has been great since I’ve had it.
nice clean looking job BILL
Thanks! I’m really pleased with the way it turned out!
Nice video! Very helpful
Thanks! I’m glad the video helped!
I have 2 mechanics carts now that I use for detailing and I would love to combine them into 1 and get rid of 1. This is a great idea. Thanks.....
You’re welcome! I’m glad the video helped!
Nice, clean job.
Thanks!
I’ve been wanting to do this, I’m waiting till that end cabinet goes on sale !
It’s a really nice addition to the garage!
Looks pretty slick
Thanks! It’s been a nice addition to the garage.
I love it nice and simple
Thank you!
Hell Yeah!!! Thanks for the tip. I've had a US General 5 drawer 30 inch cart since 2016 that I use at the CNC Shop to work between the Milling and Lathe Department. I likeed it so much that I recently bought another one for working on my cars at home. I needed more room for my tools at home and this video did the trick. Keep up the good work!!!
Thanks! I love this thing too. I purchased it for my home garage and it’s super convenient!
I like this a lot!
Thank you! It's been nice to use so far.
Great video, thank you
You’re welcome! I’m glad the video helped!
This is sick man gonna do this!
Thanks! It’s been great to have in the garage.
Great how to video!!!!!!!!!
Thanks!
You are lucky, you must have bought that end cabinet at the right time. Always out of stock at my harbor frieght. Nice clean job. Only this I would do is add one caster to the end cart to disperse the weight if you load up the side cab.
Thanks! I purchased this in early 2022 and I did have to order it and wait for it to come in. It didn’t take that long though.
Nice. Looks like I am going to do that to mine. I like it
Thanks! It’s been a great addition to my garage.
Bad ass I’m going to do this thanks for the video !!!!!
You’re welcome! I’m glad the video helped! It’s been awesome having it in my garage.
I stumbled on your video. Looking for a Harbor freight magnet can holder for My Snap-on tool chest. Your video got My attention when I seen You grinding metal in Your house. Awesome video.
Thanks lol! I’m glad you got something out of the video.
Good job bro. Doing this same addition once slate grey comes out on the side cab
Ok cool! I love this set up. And you can’t beat it for the price!
This is so awesome.
Thanks!
How do you have less than 50,000 views on this video??!! That was the most awesome hack I've seen for a harbor freight product. I was going to get the new series 3 42 inch cabinet, but now I think I might try this instead. Thank you so much!!
You’re welcome! I’m glad the video helped! I’m still waiting on my first one million view video 😂. I’m sure it’ll happen one day.
You vid has inspired me thanks man
You’re welcome! I’m glad the video helped!
Nice work.
Thanks!!!
Very nice!
Thanks! It’s been a great addition to my garage.
I bought the same cabinet but I didn't cut my top. I mounted my side cabinet to my 5 drawer cart using spacers. Worked out real good. Didn't have to butcher my cart.
Ok cool!
got a video or anything of how you did that?
@@SpykeZ0129 I do have a video. Search 10 drawer cart and end cabinet. You should find my videos.
2 small cuts is butchering... ok, Picasso. The cabinet lip over top of the cart is an excellent idea all spacers you're just in the sheet metal.
I have a five drawer box for work and I was thinking of getting the side cabinet and welding them onto a plate of metal so the backs can be level along with making the opening into a cabinet and moving the wheels. To the corner of the plate since I use a forklift to bring my toolbox around
Go for it!!!
that was slick!
Thank you! I’m glad the video helped!
I’m going to be doing this!
Awesome! It’s been working great for me.
Going to but the second peace tomorrow.
Thank you
You’re welcome! I’m glad the video helped!
Some tape would of helped get a cleaner cut. But thanks for showing exactly where the cuts are needed.
Some other videos not show this, they just say they cut here and there.
Nice box
Thanks for the tip. You’re welcome! I’m glad the video helped!
@@WorkingWithWimberley it sured helped. Keep it up
@@user-fb2jb3gz1d Will do!
Nice Job.
Thank you! Cheers!
Nice work
Thank you!!!
This is a great modification, well explained and didn’t make a mess of the cabinet. Great work.
🇨🇦
Hey northern neighbor! Thanks! I’m glad you enjoyed the video! 🇺🇸
great job and looks nice, only concern is the weight of the cabinet without anything supporting the bottom.
Thanks! So far I haven’t had any issues.
Nice Job I checked the price of the end cabinet and it cost more than the Tool cart the cart was $239 and end cabinet is $279 but still cheaper than Snap On 👍
Thank you! I use it a lot!
I've always liked this mod- though I wonder why no one adds 2 castors onto the outer corners of the end cabinet? I think it would help stabilize the whole thing and give more support to the end cabinet once it's fully loaded with tools... Just a thought.
That’s a good idea. The cabinet sits a little higher than the cart. You’d just have to add spacers. But it should work.
Well done.
Thank you!
I would pull three bolts off the vertical legs, drill through to the side cabinet, and bolt the two together.
Ok thanks.
You did a great job my friend I have one question could
you have cut on the other box and God Bless You to
Thank you! 🙏🏽 I suppose you could cut the tool cart instead on the end cabinet. I don’t see why not.
GM , I have seen alot of these side cart mod videos ... and I like yours best , well done .. do you think I could add lockers to both sides ? thank you
I haven’t seen anyone do that, but it should be possible. You would need to relocate the handle too.
I’m impressed
Thanks!
Looks good...
Thanks!
You would think these geniuses would make this a ad on product.
😂
Badass, nice and clean job ,now im gonna get that side cabinet all your fault for showing us how to do it,😂,thanks.
LOL! You're welcome! Try to catch them on sale if you can.
Awesome!!
Thank you!
Nice video with simple instructions. Thanks! How is the stability? I'm concerned that too much weight in the side cabinet will make the whole thing tilt. I guess if that becomes an issue you could maybe add two casters to the bottom of the side cabinet.
It was heavy on the cabinet side when it was empty. After I put some tools in the mechanic cart portion, it’s been fine. But I always make sure to push it slowly and carefully. So far so good!
Good clean install. Can you get matching paint or what paint did you use? Nice shop, looks like the inside of a house. LOL Great video.
I used a random green paint from Home Depot that didn’t match that great, but it’s such a small area that it isn’t really noticeable. I’m sure you could find a better match. Thanks! 😂
Good job
Thanks!
Now add unit on the other side to hand wlding helmets and shirt/jacket/boots and you have a nice shop box.
I’ve had several comments about that. I haven’t seen anyone do it yet though.
So wait. Working with Wimberley does metal cutting inside his home?
Not usually. But I did for this video.
Good vid!
Thank you! The cart is awesome.
If the drawers are anything like the 5 on the main cart then you can remove them to make it a lot more manageable by yourself! Just pull one plastic tang down and the other up and it should slide out.
Thanks for the tip.
Good Job, minimum of work, maximum result!
Thank you!!!
Awesome, but how did it hold up as far as tipping over when you loaded the end cabinet with heavy tools ?
So far it’s been great. I haven’t had any issues with it tipping, but I don’t have the end cabinet loaded with a bunch of heavy tools.
I wish my wife would let me do my shop projects in the kitchen too. Closer to the refrigerator!
😂 I have a great wife! She even helped me push the cart out to the garage!
nice work. how does it do pushing it around now with that end cab on it?
I haven’t had any problems pushing mine around. I did swap the two fixed casters to swivel casters. That made it a lot easier. And it will have more tendency to tip if you load the attached tool cabinet heavier than the cart.
how is does if feel with the cabinet full of tools? Does the extra weight make it want to tip over? Is it more difficult to move around the shop?
It’s feels fine to me. My cabinet isn’t full. I’d say it’s about 40% full. It feels stable. As far as moving it around, it was tough with the two fixed wheels. (It comes with two swivel and two fixed) After I changed them to swivel wheels, it’s easy to move around. th-cam.com/video/MLQFAYy5euI/w-d-xo.html
are you thinking of adding wheels to the end cabinet to help with weight distribution and movement with it full of tools?
The only thing I did was change the two fixed wheels to swivel wheels. Having all four swivel wheels makes it easy to move the tool cart. I haven’t had any issues with weight distribution. At least not yet.
Nice ... I am gonna look at doing this to mine . But I aint messing qith Clarence 😅
😂
Thanks! What's the best price you have seen the end cab? It's normally $280, on sale for $251 now. Thanks.
The lowest price I've seen recently was $240 in 2021.
Good job. I have never had to do any mods to any of the big box trucks, maybe a couple holes to secure it. Why would US General build add on that needs to be modify to fit?
It’s because the end cabinets were made to attach to the roller cabinets, not the mechanics cart.
Does the edge of the tool cart handle the weight of the cabinet well or does it get slight bents on the edge of the cart where you hooked it up from the beginning? also awesome video
It handles it totally fine. No bends on the edge of the cart from weight.
Might be better to have the cabinet lined up flush on the backside. Then the surface top lines up when the lids shut and it can sit against walls farther back.
Depends on your setup ofc. Either is a big upgrade
Thanks for the tip.
Awesome job! I have the same cart in white, and will be doing this over xmas break. Also, if my wife caught me grinding in the kitchen, she'd wring my neck. How'd you get away with that?
Don’t ask for permission, ask for forgiveness. 😂😂😂
