MDF (and some other sheet goods) are 49"x97" because the corners and edges can chip or dent more easily than regular plywood. The extra inch on each side allows you to ding a corner and still have a usable 4'x8'. Great project!
Same for melamine! :-)

A lumber cart on a concrete floor is an almost perfect application for steel casters. The problem with the polyurethane casters is that, no matter what weight rating they claim, after they sit still for a while with a heavy load they will develop a flat spot. Steel casters do not have that problem. The drawback of steel casters is that they can damage a soft floor, but a concrete floor is not very susceptible, and even if some faint marks do appear, it is probably not a concern.
I have a tool box that all the rubber has come off. I will look into steel casters. Thanks.
I bought steel casters for ten rolling storage units I built (40 casters) and the steel ones were rated at 330 lbs each (as I recall) which is far greater than any of the rubber / plastic casters available. The soft material flattens under load and makes the cart difficult to roll on any surface. The metal casters can still roll relatively easily when carrying a significant load. A cart that was virtually unmovable with two people and rubber wheels became manageable by one person when metal casters were used.

I Agree, my day is complete now. Great job Bob & Josh. Can definitely see your hard work and commitment paying off. Take care!
Recently, more or less inherited my late grandfather's wood shop. I don't know a lot about wood working but going back and watching some of these older videos to figure some things out. These organization type videos are really going to come in handy!
I made the lumber storage cart from ShopNotes 55 a long time ago that is really similar to yours. It's seen better days, so I may have to build another soon. I like the modifications that you've done to make it lighter and more versatile. I may have to use your plans when it comes time. Keep up the good work, enjoy the videos. Thanks, Chris
A limber cart made of lumber. Nice.
Putting the ART in Rolling Lumber Storage CART. Great job, Bob!! 👍
Ha! Thanks!
MDF is sold 97 by 49 because the edges are easily damaged. This allows you to get a full "sheet" from the material even if an edge is damaged. Great videos! Keep up the good work.
I am newish to woodworking and in the process of turning my outbuilding into a woodshed. Needed to get all my wood off the walls for more space. These are the clearest plans I have used for anything so far. Cart nearly complete and (knock on WOOD) nary a glitch. Thank you so much!
very nice cart. Might be a little big for my shop, but I'll definitely steal a few ideas. Thanks Bob
Good idea with the foam mattress!
Im going to use this idea as a rough plan to build a rolling cart for my wife's crafting supplies/wood.
My immediate shop project is lumber storage. I will def be using your plans. Great build!
Mmmm lovely storage
Nice build! I like the foam trick!
Very neat. I will be making one of these for the shop. I may add some bungees for restraint. Great video!!
I like that you dont buy something, you just make it
Whoa, that is one beefy lumber cart. It's a smart design. I like it a lot.
This Bob guy is good at making stuff
I just purchased plans for one of these wood carts off of Etsy. I also watched his video to build it. Video was too fast and didn't show details like this one. Also, he used a router to make his, which I don't own and haven't ever used one.
That said --I absolutely love this video!!! Cuts and Build are much simpler - thank you for that!!!
I'm going to scrap those plans and build this one. Lesson learned. I'll be checking out more of your videos. As a 66 year old grandma working full time in and office, I need all the help I can get :)
Congrats on 2 mil
Congratulations on 2M! Keep up the good work! I like watching your videos so much. And the music... Best!
Premium plywood products come oversized as well. Gives you the opportunity to square up the sheet or cut a damaged edge if you need the full 4x8.
Very nice job on that cart
8:14 a little trick i use is to write the length of the 2x4s on the sides after i cut it so i can Always see which piece is the most convenient to use
Great bob!
These videos are one of the reasons Thursday is my favorite day
I need to make one of those for myself
Great video showing how you can tweak existing designs to fit your needs!
Agreed! There's so many different ways to modify things to make them fit your exact needs!
@@kylet.459 The only problem being that my workshop is so small I don't think I could even modify this to fit!
@@AdventuresAtHomeLLC watching your videos it looks like you have a decent lumber rack though..
@@kylet.459 True! And thanks for watching!
I love that you’re basically just doing things around your house/shop and just video it for us and we enjoy it! I used to think kids watching other kids on TH-cam playing games was a crazy thing, now I understand! I should be in my shed doing a lot of work instead I’m getting “inspiration” from your videos hahahaha! Love your channel man! Keep up the good work!!
Regular plywood has some post cutting to do after the layers are bonded together, hence they need to be trimmed after (4x8). Since MDF is a composite that is pressed into shape it would cost more to trim it down after, Which is why MDF is 97x49 instead of 4x8.
They make the sheets larger so that you can cut off both factory edges and still end up with two 24 inch pieces. Standard kitchen cabinets are 24 inches deep. Incase you were curious.😀
Ah! That makes a lot of sense, thanks!
I'm working with metric I use a lot of Plywood and the measurements of a full sheet there are about 1220x2440 mm (that's about the size Bob mentioned) don't know where the standard came from but it seems to be an international standard size for full sized "wood" sheet material
And the side of kitchen cabinets at my old job was 580mm so closer to 23 inch but that might be a regional difference in standards or a difference in measuring as a cabinet with door attached is 600mm so just shy off 24inch
Ruben Wittingen
There are definitely differences. I wanted to replace a single kitchen cabinet with an IKEA one and couldn’t, because theirs are deeper than the ones in my kitchen and the standard melanin countertop from the home improvement store. I think the difference was about 2 cm or something.
Oddly enough, this measurement is also linked permanently to the size of the bed on an american truck. On the larger old trucks you could fit a 4x8 sheet flat on the bed floor, between the wheel wells, with the gate closed. On newer smaller trucks it will sit on top of the wheel wells with the gate down. No one will make the bed smaller now, because no one is going to buy a truck that cant fit a piece of wood.
Rara Avis that is because ikea has their own size standards for everything, kitchens, beds, mattresses, pillows, even bedsheets sometimes. That forces you to buy the entire kitchen from them, not just one cabinet.
Really cool, good design it maxsimises space well
I need one of those. It deffinitly beats stacking em up against the wall! Haha!
Hey Bob. Ryobi makes a 7-1/2" flexible extension that works amazing for tight spaces. I've even used that to drill pocket holes in awkward spaces. It doesn't say Ryobi on it so it's "sponsor friendly" as well. Best $9 tool I ever bought.
Awesome Bob, glad to see some Torx screws also :D keep the videoes coming
Nice, Simple just what is needed. I like the Idea of being able to move the pegs where you need them.
Is it weird that sometimes I find shop projects more interesting than regular woodworking projects?
Not really, I think a lot of people do.
I just watched your old supply cart and thought that bob could also make a supply cart for wood and 6 min later your vid uploaded.....your the best bob keep up👍
Bob, looks similar to the one I built, great job. I put some bungees on the plywood side, I found that when the plywood is stacked on end they have a tendency to warp a little. The bungees keep them all tight together.
Great storage solution! Being able to stay organized, see everything and have it look good is hard to do but you did it.
Nice Video Bob! Those short pieces are always a hassle, to short for the long bin and to long for the short bin..
Cool project! And congrats on 2 Million!
Great Design, also love the outtakes.
ILTMS video and the day is better :D
CeZeroOsiem yep
Im always amazed when there are those few people that "thumbs down" videos just to be a jerk. Bob makes great, very well put together videos, as well as great projects. There is ZERO reason to "thumbs down" this video.
Perfect timing on this for me - I’ve needed to build a similar cart for a while and BAM! You come out with a video build of your own version! Thank you!
Great! Glad to hear it!
Nice lumber storage. I'm diggin all those casters for smoother movement.
It looks heavy! Cool build, really great organization ideas!
Great video, of course. Nice tip to use the foam to keep stuff from rolling around.
Exactly what I need. I’ll be in the shop. Thanks Bob!
Great!
Same here 😂
im glad to finally see one of these!
The mats are just brilliant!
Looks functional. Wish I had the room for something that big
Really great work, Bob! Fantastic! 😃
I built a mobile clamp and French cleat cart like yours it’s perfect! Now I’m gonna build a lumber storage cart also can’t wait
well done guys
Very nice. Watching you move it around made me thing it might be a good idea to drill some holes in the ends of the conduit for bungee cords so boards don't fall over when rolling the cart across the shop.
LOOOOOOVEd the Tron shirt!!! Thanks for being an inspiration!
Congratulations on 2 mil subs bob
Incredibly useful! I love how space-efficient this is.
Always so simple and so productive.
Your channel is the best in this category of building things!
Bob, this cart is AWESOME!!!!
I love this - going to make one!
I think I'll add a could of u bolts for a ratchet strap about 2/3's the way up would be good for holding the plywood tight up on the back...
(I have a tiny - one-car garage sized shop - so this will be perfect for quickly clearing space!)
Nice cart.
Great work as always!
I love your videos, I use it as inspiration for my work at school, it has been a great way to learn new things especially with your new section Bits.
Thanks so much!
Such a great design especially with the alterations. I won't be alone in saying I absolutely love the outtakes at the end of your videos. :-)
That should be a great addition to your shop Bob !
Next of 3mill!!!
My bus ride home just improved 100%
Might have been a good idea to cover the entire bottom of the cart in the foam to protect the edges and corners of the full sheets.
Nice, i think you should add some caps on the end of the conduits to stop the accidental bumps and scratches you could get.
Ah awesome! Nothing beats drinking a mug of tea and watching Bob makes stuff :]
Thank you!!
Nice lumber storage! It is as large as my entire wood shop :D !
I have a tiny wood shop :(
Good timing for the video... just about to build a lumber storage for my shop... thanks and keep it up
Hey bob you should put a bin or something on it so you can take out the metal rods if you have some short ones
Yes! Yes! Yes! Love it. I want one...I need one.
That's a MASSIVE cart! I made my wood rack with emt conduit...strong stuff.
I see a future project in our future lol thanks for the idea ! It'll come in handy for sure
One thing I would probably add to the Sheet side is something like an Occy(octopus) strap near the top with proud screws/nails or holes for it to hook on to. Easy to use, replace, change for tighter fit.
Love it! It looks already very functional.
I like the design, right to the point! I should make one of these to store a bunch of left over laminate that I have.
I made a version of one of these for my space today! Repurposing lumber and extra laying around means that I only had to buy (2) 2 x 4’s and some screws 😊
So nice !
Great work 👏🏼👌🏼
I think that’s the best one I saw ⚙️. Better than wrestling 🤼♂️ with wood on the ground.
Very cool flexible storage solution. My space is much more limited so I have a plan for some fixed vertical bins but if I had more space available, I would go with something like that for sure!
good day Bob love your videos. Even better when you make a mistake lol, MDF and Melamine are 49 x 97 for when doing cabinets etc. you will still get 4 @ 12" or 2 @ 24" x 97 with your saw blade so little to no waste (depends). Keep up the great videos
Really usefull storage solution. Hi from england
If you’re gonna put boxes and stuff up top, you could add a 3 inch lip or fence all around to prevent things from falling.
I have a 24 inch board that I use for cuts closet to the blade. If I need a 12 inch cut, I set my stop block for 36, and add the board.
Safe you screwing in to the deck of your mitre station.
Thanks a lot Bob for everything you taught me through all your great videos ! (Sorry for my english) ! Great music on this one, we hear the guitarist in you !! /love from Reunion island
That is an 18-wheeler of a wood storage cart, but it makes sense to have it that large if you are going to put a full sheet of plywood on it. I'd love to hear how it has worked out for you after about a month of use.
I hope to have a shop like yours one day lol
Great build guys! 👍🏼
I know you beveled the edges of that conduit, but I'd like to see a rubber sleeve or cap or something over the ends there so there are no exposed edges. You could use tennis balls or lacrosse balls if you have some cheap used ones laying around, or just wrap it in a few layers of heavy duty tape. I feel like you could bust out the 3D printer and print some covers , maybe with some hooks or other useful addons pretty easily too, which would be another handy project to showcase.
You could throw an 18" strap with a 5-10lb weight on the end on top on the plywood side, too, to keep the tops from flipping out while rolling.
