i use those casters in my shop, and i have found that adding some angle or bar stock to tie the left/right casters together makes it work better. you step on the bar and both wheels deploy/retract at the same time. also makes it easier to reach the "rear" casters in a situation like this.

I’ve been watching you for years now. You and a bunch of other woodworking KZfaqrs. Mostly for fun as I’ve never made anything with wood before. I’m a 20 year old girl who recently graduated college (electrical engineering major) and now that I’m about to start work as a full time electrical engineer next month, I’m starting to think maybe I should begin practicing some of these projects myself. I have the time now and the income to explore this mini hobby that I’ve been intrigued by for years. Hope to have my very own home mini shop full of equipment one day! So I just want to say thank you! For helping me discover a love for something I never would have thought I had.

Your video showed me how much better a job I could do with better thought to a solution. My drill press cabinet/stand is n ow near the top of my to-do list. Thanks..

Build tip for improvement would be to countersink the hinges flush and run the edgeband over the hinges. That way you would have a cleaner look, if not overall, then on the cabinet doors. Otherwise it is a nice build.

@marshallbrummel1860 3 жыл бұрын

Nice work Bob! I would like to see you attach a connecting rod between the wheels on each side so that you only have to flip the levers twice instead of four times to move the cabinet. Or better yet, a single point in the front so all it would take is one step to raise and lower the casters. Thank you for sharing.

Its a good use for the space. Since I also frequently drill metal, I'd add place a steel pail below the table through hole to catch shavings and cutting fluid. I also see you like those magnetic tool bars for your screwdriver collection. I currently use one in a drawer for my loose drill bits that are not in an index like those spade bits you have sitting loose on one of those shelves. It keeps them organized when sliding the drawer out and in.

@alant84 3 жыл бұрын

Looks great as always Bob. I had an idea which I thought might be useful: if you were to fasten one end of a strap to the top of the yellow drill bit case and the other end to the top of the cabinet, it would automatically open the case when you slide the shelf out (and should close as it does now when you push it back in).

@jacobdorris7160 3 жыл бұрын

This is a really cool project! I think I accidentally recreated these casters for one of my projects, though. I found some push-pull toggle clamps with bolt threads on the active end, found some threaded casters of the same size, screwed the caster stems into the clamps, and mounted them upright on some post blocks to make a rolling drum stand that sat flush on the ground when it was lowered. Wishing I had just found these things now...

@adewet4u 3 жыл бұрын

Hi Bob. I love the unit. 👍🏻 The only difference I would suggest is to build what you have done but.... 1. Top board must be sticking out by the thickness of the door unit. 2. Remove the top section by an inch or so from the door. Thus the door is sunken under the top board. My reasoning is to avoid an open mm. on the top between the top board and the door.... I have noticed that by not having a gap prevents dust from getting in. Other than that... ❤️ The unit.

@wojtekstach78 3 жыл бұрын

initial plan for door placement would make impossible to slide the boards in and out ;) but the idea itself is great. when the tools are organized, the job goes far better!

Excellent project. I might offer one suggestion, since your drawers are wood on wood, a little candle wax on the edges might be a good idea, especially if humidity swells the drawers. Same to you Bob, I hope 2021 is a great year for everyone. Stay well, stay safe.

Cool idea. Have you ever tried to bolt/screw a board to the caster levers so you could raise/lower a side at once? I'm guessing that it wouldn't work for bigger items, but your cabinet might be small.light enough to do it.

@robin111v 3 жыл бұрын

Just an idea: If you don't care too much for symmetry, then you could have the left and right sided shelves at different heights or staggered. That way the middle panel will remain stronger because you don't cut into it from both sides (or you could cut the datos deeper if you want).

A couple suggestions to improve the design. if you had staggered the dato slots on the center wall it would make it stronger and you could have gone deeper slotting, using Aluminium C channel on the slots would make it more durable and slide better. Also a few shelve holding pins can work as a stop so you don't run the risk of pulling a shelf too much and drop it on the floor. i mean screw a tab on the bottom of the shelves a couple inches from the back and touching the side walls and then drill and pin the walls so the tabs hit them once the shelf is pulled out. Well done

Something that might be really cool and very useful, what about drilling holes in the toe levers and threading some thin cables through there. Then run them up the back into a single loop. With one hand you could disengage all the wheels and put the cabinet down without having to do a little hokey pokey.

Great, simple project, Bob, that fits my needs exactly~!! I have several of the Dewalt bit sets in cases and they're just stacked up around my drill press. So annoying~! I use the same type casters in my shop. I only have a couple sets since they're a bit pricey, but I buy the quick-release caster plates and mount them on things that move around the shop. Easy to pop them on & then off when needed. As for shelf arrangement within the cabinet, I'm thinking about drilling shelf pins for max flexibility. Not sure if you considered that and ruled it out. Just a thought... Thanks for sharing~!
