Get your shop organized with this simple scrap wood lumber cart.
Materials and tools used are listed below.
In this video I'll walk you through step by step how I built this super simple, super functional storage cart. Now I don't have to rummage through piles for scraps and off cuts to find the piece i was looking for, everything has it's place. Thanks to Brad at Fix This Build That for making great build plans.

My favorite scrap wood cart on YT so far was the one with a middle section for full sheets (so they stand up straight and don't need to be "leafed" through) and bins for off-cuts and 1x/2x lumber on the sides.

I can testify that this design works really well. Consolidates so much lumber, sheet goods, and off cuts into a small area that can be moved around as needed for wood access or other shop operations.

Looks good. I may need to adapt the length of the cart to my shop space though.

I started building mine today after having watched both Brad's and your videos a couple of times. Except for the plywood deck, my base is done, but I'm also following your example of five stretchers and five A-frames, because I use shutter ply that came off pallets for almost everything I make for my workshop, so they're also shorter than the single sheet used by Brad. I already had four castors that I had bought for another purpose, but this was more urgent, I felt, because I have wood all over the garage and I'd really like having it all more accessible and in one place. My castors have a lower weight rating than the one mentioned by Brad, however, so I made it to town just before closing time today to buy two more. At 220 lbs each, the combined rating is just 20 lbs more than Brad's four! I'll put two with brakes at the one end, just in case I may need to use them, or maybe I should put one on each corner farthest from the wall, as it will be standing…?

Nice! I would put the brakes on the side away from the wall because it’s just a pain having to reach back there and release a brake. Plus you probably won’t use them if they are too close to wall to reach. Glad you found the video helpful! Thanks for watching.

I FINALLY finished my cart and loaded my wood yesterday. I used MDF for the shelving because I had it available, but then I was afraid it might get some damp on it one day, so I had to seal and put two coats of paint on it, which took a while, because rain also got in the way of that. Then, when I eventually did finish it a week ago and loaded the wood I found out that I had completely underestimated the massive weight of the wood and that the 4" castors I had fitted were wholly insufficient. I could not get that thing moving on the brick paving outside my workshop for the life of me! Then, when I'd got someone to push from the other side while I pulled and we were very slowly moving it into the workshop the two front castors decided these 2" screws with which they'd been attached to the base were just mickey mouse and pulled them clean out of the wood. The next day was the start of a four-day long weekend, meaning that all the more specialist type of stores were closed, including places selling castors! Eventually managed to buy a set of six 7 4/5" castors on Monday, which cost a fortune, but without them the cart would've been much less useful to me, since I need to be able to move it outside at times. And this time I used 3/8" bolts, lock nuts and large washers instead of screws! Even with these large castors and on my very smooth and level shop floor, this thing is a long and sandy beach at high tide on a hot summer's day to move! BUT it is a massive improvement in that almost all my wood is now easily accessible and in one place! I also gained a little space by sawing the wood I was using for the sliders into shorter lengths and fitting them between the A frames instead of over. Gained about 3/4", ie a sheet of shutterply on each side. Oh, and I also fitted hooks on both ends with ratchet straps on the sides from end to end. First tried bungee cord, but it wasn't strong enough and I think the wood would've worn it through pretty quickly too, because there was too much movement and it was chafing. Still want to fit handles of some kind as well to help with the moving.

Hey that's a nice build. I am also planning to build the cart from Brad's design. Thanks for sharing your mods. One quick question - did you make any dimensional changes to Brad's design or is the overall footprint/dimensions remain the same? Especially since it is over an year since your build and usage, I wonder if there are any dimensional adjustments or other improvements you would recommend. I appreciate if you can comment and add that perspective. TIA. BTW, that is a cute little site inspector you have got. God bless all your family.

Nice tweaks on Brad's design. I was actually just looking at his video today and gotta buy the plans soon. My current lumber storage is a similar Cluster as yours was. It is a basically similar rack, but fixed against a wall, so much space is lost or barely usable. Buying MORE lumber cause you can't get to the stash you have kinda defeats the purpose. Glad the Project Super signed off on the deal. They can be a bit picky ;)

Yeah that does defeat the purpose. Especially with lumber prices the way they are! Thanks for the great comment. Brads plans are awesome and I highly recommend them. And for sure I got to keep my head on a swivel. You never know when the project super is gonna show up to check on the progress. Haha.

Excellent build. I envisioned something very similar to what you did so I think I'm going to roll with it. I may put a few bins on one side and leave room for scrap plywood next to the bin.

Nice! For sure putting bins on the side would be a great idea!
