Join me in making the world's simplest big wooden storage box, which will be used for garage storage. It's not classy, it's basically wood n screws, but it was still fun to do... Enjoy!

Finally, a woodworker for the rest of us, He's succinct without showing off his million-dollar woodworking shop in the background. He's like the millions of weekend woodworkers out here not like the slick pros making these type of videos. His videos are simple without the endless chatter, to the point, and he uses tools like most of us have probably from Harbor Freight. Keep-um-coming dude, love your style.

Like your video. It's very entertaining. Going to make 2 of these to store dry goods in. Like noodles, flour, cereal, etc. That way the mice or critters can't get to it as easy. Was thinking of adding casters on bottom. What you think? 4" x 4" piece of 1x4 wood at each corner. And 1" casters or wheels. Thanks!

Sounds good, Nadine, my version didn't need casters, but it seems like a great idea though! Crack on - let me know how you get on :)

Not from memory, and the trunk has gone on to its owner, so sorry no. However, it's 4ft wide, and width and breadth were just based on the width of the planks (keepin' it simple!)

So, this is newbie me asking this since I don’t know this(but should since I work in a hardware store), but what tools did you use for this or would you recommend? I see a cordless 3/8 Drill (I assume) and a right angle screwdriver along with a chopsaw/miter saw(?) and square..and also, what screws would you recommend for this?

@SimplyWoodworking 3 жыл бұрын

Hi Jessica. It's really very basic (as much of my stuff is!). I used a palm router for the lid edge too, and a chop saw cos I had one, but you can get away with the most basic stuff - saw, screws (wood screws ideally, but any will do so long as they're long enough) and a square. It truly IS Simple woodworking. Thanks for your question!

It’s so nice to watch “non-stodgy” woodworking! A refreshing break from the sickeningly well equipped elitist shops! Loved the project, and, unusual for me, the music! I do have a bitch though! At 4:00, that diagonal brace attached to the leg on your table isn’t locked in! Due to severe OCD, I will not be able to sleep until you secure it, so please lock it in and notify me so I can get a good nights rest!

@SimplyWoodworking 2 жыл бұрын

Absolutely right, Tom. it is bent so it can't lock in - like an over-extended leg! That bench is so solid it's absolutely fine, but it has been retired now, as it was very old n rusty. Good spot though!
