We have a lot of these identical cardboard boxes from buying blueberries over the years. They are very handy for storing stuff in, so I made a rack to hold 24 of those. More storage solutions: woodgears.ca/storage

I think it was Matthias that used small yogurt containers to make a tray for screws and bolts. I copied that idea and use the resulting tray several times a week when I need an odd screw or nut. I also take out all of the screws and hardware (e.g. battery boxes) after my kids destroy their toys. Those little screws come in handy a lot. From trash to treasure!

I was initially confused why you intended to spend the material to close of the 'back'-side of the rack instead of making the boxes accessible from either side, but was satisfied by how well efficiently the "extra-shitty used-plywood --" [with no other(?)] "-- for uses like this" filled the space. I'd initially imagined that off-camera you had the blueberry-boxes stacked like the arrays of banker-boxes I'm used to sliding in/out from under benches or overhead shelves to access deeper ranks while searching for tools/materials "helpfully re-"-organized by people [with different "priorities" that do not include being able to use any of it...] -- But seeing that you intend this to be easily and readily accessible, has made me rethink my plans towards {inhibiting building walls of boxes}, instead of {making navigating them easier}.

Underneath is space for a couple to stand vertical, because I can reach that easily. Also prevents moths from getting into the food during the summer.

I always learn something or get a good tip or suggestion for my own projects from your videos, and this one is no exception! I was going to do this very type of system to put a bank of tool and small parts drawers in my old workbench, to sit on its open shelf underneath. I thought about the side guides to keep the back corner of the drawer from going in between the frame stiles, but was thinking about pocket screws to fasten them to the stiles. Your brad nailing and gluing them between the runners is genius, since the runners are already attached to the stiles, that's sufficient for holding all 3 pieces, the 2 runners and the guide. Thanks as always for your practicality, and your upcycling of used and construction-grade wood. With lumber prices still higher than I'd like, I hate sinking more than I need to, into a humble shop project. Good stuff, Matthias!
