I make a Rag ‘n’ Bag organizer wall unit that’s perfect for storage in your laundry room, mud room, kitchen, or even workshop!
This project is totally beginner friendly since it’s constructed with just glue and screws.
This project was a little bit impulsive on my part since I have many other, more important shop projects to tackle. However, I had these bags and rags lying around and I was also looking for somewhere to hang up my apron, etc.
Since this project wasn’t entirely in my schedule, I wanted to get through it quick and move on. This is why I chose to use sheet goods (MDF) and just glue and screw it together. It doesn’t need to be bomb proof. If I want to make another, more sturdy version with traditional joinery, I know a woodworker who can make that happen.
I like the idea of building functional furniture with more than one, but somewhat separate functions. For instance, my clamp rack doubles as a shelf for just my stereo, and this was entirely intentional. The fact that I have rags, bags and hooks for hanging sweaters and aprons appeals to me for some reason, I’m not sure why.

Sometimes you take your time and whip out the traditional joinery, other times you just glue it and screw it! What joinery would you have used to make this? Leave me a comment below of what you think!

@JamesW81 2 жыл бұрын

Glue and screw was perfect for this. As was the paint! I do a bit of woodwork myself including turning. A lot of the members of the wood turning club are older gents and most of them didn't like paint on a project. I think whatever makes you happy is the right approach.

It always feels like a sacrilegious act when wood is painted over as an immediate gut reaction (not MDF though lol), but when we were still looking for a house to buy, I saw a few houses that embraced the whole wood grain everywhere -idea and man did it look like an old cottage. You really have to pick and choose where wood grain actually looks good even if in isolation it seems like a good choice. Some may like the color red over all the others, but you still probably don't want to paint your walls with it...

Sounds weird but doesn't glug out as chaotically and pours easier! :)

@ScottWalshWoodworking 3 жыл бұрын

Thanks for checking out my video Suman! I feel like I could write an essay about this, hah! I'm using a Panasonic G85 with a 12-40mm f/2.8 lens and 95% of the time set at 40mm because I like the look of longer focal lengths. When I moved in my shop last year, I almost just went with some LED shop fixtures, but I decided to get some LED video lighting panels (Neewer 480). I went with these for the high colour rendering index. I have four permanently mounted in the four corners of the shop. Since my shop is so small, I don't need as much lighting, but I might get a few more panels in the future. I'm not a fan of 'flooding' the space with light, but rather directional task lighting pointed at specific work areas because this can create interesting contrast. I've noticed the care that you take in filming your videos too, it definitely shows! I can talk about this stuff for years, let me know if you have any more questions!

@WoodcraftBySuman 3 жыл бұрын

@@ScottWalshWoodworking That's awesome! Thanks for the details. I am honestly surprised by the image quality of the G85, especially given the amount of bokeh for a four thirds sensor. That's awesome! Are you shooting and editing in 4k? For me, the amount of data it takes to shoot/edit in 4k is just nuts. Its about 120GB ish per video. Eventually I'll have to dump my raw files because it is not sustainable to house them without $3-4k in NAS. Great call on the Neewer lights! I think I need to get a few panels and have them all on a smart switch via app so that I can turn everything on at once. Currently I am doing a mixture of shop lights that are only 85CRI and then overpowering it with godox SL150 with softboxes. it works OKAY. I want an even easier "turn on and forget about it" solution because I'm sure you've experienced this: woodworking + filming is hard enough. Adding a third complication of dynamic lighting can be a pain.

@ScottWalshWoodworking 3 жыл бұрын

Yeah, I get the nice depth of field/bokeh when I stay at those longer focal lengths. I'd get a long prime lens but the flexibility of the zoom is hard to beat, and this lens was expensive enough, hah! I almost went with a GH5 but I couldn't really justify the cost since I sometimes cover the camera with sawdust, soo.... I only tried shooting in 4K once, for my blast gate video I believe. My laptop, is powerful, but it's not a purpose-built editing rig, so it was a bit harrowing to render, etc. My first cheque from KZfaq, I'll put towards a solid editing rig... that could take a while 😂. My raw footage can exceed 100gb when shooting in 1080, so 4K will have to wait for now. I totally resonate with the "turn on and forget it" solution. I don't want to be slinging lighting stands around my already cramped shop. My next video will be automating my dust collection with an arduino. Theoretically, it would be possible to control the lights from the arduino as well, based on what tool is turned on at the moment of filming. Not sure if it'll be worth the time to figure that out, but it sure would be cool!

@WoodcraftBySuman 3 жыл бұрын

@@ScottWalshWoodworking I have zero skills with audrino. I would love to see your build. I’m probably going to put smart plugs like the Philips and turn the lights on/off via the app. Govee also makes cheaper options. Oh man- you’re shootings a lot if you’re hitting 100gb on 1080p.

@ScottWalshWoodworking 3 жыл бұрын

I think that sounds like a great plan! Simple and effective. Yeah I have many ideas for shots and even segments that get cut or completely removed in the edit for conciseness. I like to think I'm conscious of not letting the camera roll on forever while working, but it always ends up being a lot.
