Too Many Tips to List in this Build - Small Parts Organizer
Вставка
- Опубліковано 24 лют 2024
- Maybe not genius, exactly, but there are some neat ideas in this build. It started out as a simple, easy to make parts organizer, then blossomed into one that's quite a bit more complex. The big one is making the drawers full extension and the compact mechanism that I came up with to do that. The same could be done for larger drawers and I'll have to try that in a future project.
Making the drawers from single pieces of MDF is also novel, although it does limit how deep the bins can be. Could increase the depth by doing two layers or using thicker stock.
As it is the organizer is a compact 14" x 8" x 4", so it doesn't take up much space.

Congratulations, John. This has to go as one of the most overengineered, bizarre, woodworking projects I've ever seen! Followup video showing what on earth all those tiny compartments are useful for definitey required. :D
Once again, john has come up with a genuine innovation to a old design. He has the most creative mind in woodworking today.
For me, sanding is my favorite part!! 😊
This would make a nice monthly pill organizer.
I was thinking exactly the same thing as I watched. I'm going to have a go at combining this idea with John's cardboard drawers.
if you only take pills every other day but have different meds every day of tue year I guess...
I never fail to be amused by your Matt Cremona pusher-stick.
I've been hesitant to leave this comment before because I don't want to be called out as the safety police, but your confidence with the table saw always amazes me. Keep up the great content, I love it, you inspire me to build what I want to build, regardless of the complexity. Thanks.
I just found you and, well....I am obsessed!!❤ I will be watching every video starting now. I'm inspired!I love woodworking so very much. You make it a very smooth and satisfying production. ❤
Full extension drawer idea is very nice, thanks.
John Heisz, getting a little more familiar with his table saw every year.
Neat build. I like the idea, so I thought I might just make some suggestions, because that way if I am wrong on the internet, people could explain why, and save me a mess later.
I would be tempted to swap the wood slides for flat aluminum. This should allow you to get a piece thin enough to be a single saw kerf, saving you a ton of milling on the saw to make your drawer dados. Don't bother assembling a complex part, just rout the middle off of alternating ends with a router table and stop blocks. Don't screw around milling individual pockets, just rip a grid with your saw, chisel or drill out the bulk, then clean up the bottom with a router, you could easily use a 3d printed template to template rout the pattern. Patch the slots with the same aluminum flat bar you sourced for the build. The lap joint at the back may be a bit tricky, I would be tempted to just try CA glue and if that fails,, switch to a small amount of epoxy.
And put a center handle in the divider so that you can carry it upright without the drawers falling out, and store it on a book shelf without having to push the stuff off of the top of it to access it.
Anyway, I really like it, and I could easily see those full extension slides being scaled up in a massive way to make large drawers.
Your creativity and “problem” solving (solution finding) always impress the hell out of me.
I really enjoy the meticulous way that you make things.
Ahhhh no, definitely genius. John continues to create simple and useful as well as complex items. Honestly.... a never-ending ability to expand everyone's creative and skill sets. Thank you JOHN... there's no one better at what you are doing!
Another super useful project, you're a genius😊
It's so good ... I will honour you with a Haiku.
An Ode to John Heisz
A little salty,
Brilliant builds, honest and true,
A friend never met.
Great vid John 👌
Somewhat small drawers even for small stuff, I think, but definitively an interesting design that offer many customising adaptions.🙂
Maybe for watchmakers or locksmiths.
The drawer stop mechanism is perfect! I love it.
I have an order in right now for a high-end watch box that has a drawer in the bottom half. I'm glad you put this out when you did because I want the drawer slides to be wood like the hinge, side handles, and the latch I invented. This slide option is great for allowing full extension of the drawer...thanks.
Nice work dude 👍👍
nicely done John! very clever (as usual) method of solving the puzzle of full extension drawers. well done.
Great job.
Very cool. Maybe a little pen type thing with a magnet to grab the little parts.
I like the drawer stop mechanism.
Thanks Greg :0
Great video really enjoyed it!
That would make a fantastic jewelry boxes for the wife.
Awesome use of scrap!
My favorite scrap project I've built for myself is a set of drawers I put underneath my John Heisz work bench I built from your plans a few years ago. Not nearly as nice as yours but... my favorite bench I've used in my 15 or so years of messing around with woodworking.
Bascially like the toolbox you suggest but made with different dimensions to suit my tools. It's an ugly hodge podge of like 3 kinds of sheet goods, but at least has matching set of old kitchen cabinet pulls.
I could paint it or put actual drawer fronts on it but.... eh...it works fine as is haha
Cleaned my shop up tremendously of wood from old projects I had taken apart that were too good to discard, and got me a 20 drawer toolbox!
Playing drums and watching the new ibuildit video, this is a perfect Sunday 👌
My brother would love this for the flies he makes for fishing.
As always, impressive!
That's a good example of over complicating build ... but i LOVE it 👍
Super build. I really enjoyed this.
Best Wishes, B.
As usual a very nice build, love how precise this one is done 👌. And no idea why I suddenly have a craving in waffles, guess it’s because I live in Belgium.
Very clever drawer runner design
I like how you built the full extension slides! I would have never thought of that... I need to try it!!!
Very nice.
like the drawer slides idea
Stunning organizer, John! Really brilliant work!!! 😃
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
I love it so much❤❤❤❤
Another GREAT idea John! I can see a lot of cuts and glueing in my future.
Those full extension slides are so cool! Such a simple design. I’m curious how they would compare to your other design - on a full size drawer.
Also really excited to see a 3D printer added to your shop. It’s so nice to have for jigs or templates.
Zero clearance throat plate! Genius.
I really like that design.
I used to have an MPCNC set up in my garage, but I tried to upgrade it and enlarge it, and it was always in the way and I never actually fully even tested it... And it creates *so* much dust. So I boxed up the parts.
But seeing videos like this always makes me want to set it up again.
That is a cool idea, so much detail.
Gosh! This guy is clever!
That is one hell of a build….!
192 individual tiny parts
that I'd never be able to find again!😂
That would be an excellent place to store all of the tiny cut offs from the drawer extensions.
Love the build! What 3D Printer did you get? Would love to know your thoughts on it and am excited to see how you utilize it in your shop!
Awesome ❤
Good stuff
Great idea, maybe this could be adapted for drill bits etc
the waffle organizer! I like it
Hey John. Awesome job 👍
Too cool. Seriously, too cool. Really glad to see a video on your main channel. And this build is too cool. Did I already say that?
Que genial manera de aprovechar los desperdicios. Me encanto!
Bravo John
Good project John
AWESOME!
2:33 I know you have great control and experience, but damn mr. Heisz that was close to the blade 😄
the blade's not going anywhere. as long as you understand the forces involved and where the wood can go, you'll understand there is no undue risk in a cut like that.
Buen día que gusto me doy viéndolo darle gusto a ese niño que lleva dentro de si, lo felicito y siga jugando con sus maravillas, muchas gracias por enseñarnoslas
Plan to build a single drawer for scroll saw blades and can use the drawer slide design. Thank you. Nice compact and flat in thick case makes it nice for under a tool.
I was thinking of using it for earrings or just jewellery. 👍
And you still have room for identification on the fronts of the drawers!
Love the project. But one question I really have is do you have a video on the wall mounted CNC. Great space saver.
Very good fantastic Brasil
Lol, you are just trolling the safety patrol today!
Love it. Great minimalist solution for small parts
great job!
of course the plastic one gets stuck :D
Super 👌👍🖐️.
I'm thinking such an organizer for a watchmaker.
My son is going to be an apprentice in one year. Too bad I don't have a CNC.
And I'd prefer to make it from 3/4 or even thicker.
Enjoy the channel. Noticed your CNC is mounted vertical. Seems a great way to save shop space. Any videos on the mounting vertical rather than horizontal? Any issues running vertical?
This is very nice, but what goes in it? Tiny screws for laptop computers or cell phones? I can't think of anything else which would fit in it. Maybe Dremel tool bits, sort of. But the proof of concept is amazing. You do come up with some awesome ideas. I built your precision router lift, and it's one of the best things I've ever made.
I made it to store and sort electronic component, SMD parts mainly.
@@JohnHeisz Sticking them in a block of foam is a good way to organize them also. Makes it much easier to count how many you have left.
It looks awesome. Keeping the one 3D printed part looks odd though.
genius
I'm impressed by the full-extension drawer slides! How well does it scale up to larger drawers?
Second comment here. I was thinking the syp mechanism/connecting bar will likely prevent drawer racking? Especially with larger drawers, like you said you may build at a later date.
John, i love the videos and u are an amazing craftsman so I have wondered how come you never added a ripping blade to your table saw? Is it because you don't use it for solid lumber that often or is there any other reason? Cool work as always :D
Very good, but I can't think of anything that I would want to store in it; certainly not 162 different compartments!
not really about the project (which is pretty cool) but the dust collection on that saw is fantastic - or I'm just missing something :)
Neat!

Excelente trabajo compañero. Te felicito 👏👏👏👍
Maybe genius operative
You’re great at showing how to make something. You could be better on showing why it works.
Those full ext drawer slides. Great idea! But makes them stop and go ?
He has other drawer building videos where he uses the same wooden full extension drawer slides. He goes into more detail on those videos of how and why it works like it does. ua-cam.com/video/1p7cYb-jjT8/v-deo.html
Didn't know you had a 3d printer John. Which one or ones? Also, what is the make of your CNC?
I wonder how this would work with insulation foam board (Say 1.5 or 2 inch) glued to a substrate. This would allow you to get much deeper pockets, at very little cost, and possibly save you a lot of time and effort milling, as if you had foam glued to a solid base of say, 1/8th inch hardboard, you could then do through cuts to make your pockets and still have a durable bottom to your holes, so you could literally just drill them out or even just use a hot wire cutter if you have one. If it's not rigid enough to support runners, you could just drill holes through the foam to sink dowels into your hardboard base. In fact, if you used a milled block glued to a substrate, you wouldn't NEED to mill pockets, you could assemble the holes out of ripped strips. Just glue them in place.
An issue of course would be friction as your slide rubs against foam. presumably, some testing would be required. But it doesnt' immediately strike me as stupid. You could also just do the outer layers out of actual MDF or other somewhat abrasion resistant material. Say, stack up 2 3/4 MDF strips, to make the sides, fill the center with 1.5 inch foam, and you have a lighter, deeper drawer with all wear elements being the same materials.
John do you make plans before you start jobs like these or design and build on the hoof
So what little tiny things are being stored there?
funny, that the only one, that didn't drop out nice, was the 3d printed one ^^
Love your ideas and execution! What happened to the filming style in this video....not your usual quality
Excellent job! Probably takes way more patience than i have tbh 😂..
Great for pills or supplements fill up for a few days, save going to individual containers and boxes every time. (Or things like those mini nyodium magnets etc) 👍🏴🇬🇧
Labeling would be tough ... Jewelry or electronic technicians ... maybe designer sewing sequins, buttons or pearls... Kind of specialized and in need of magnifying lamp, low wind, and tweezer holders...
I'd have used ice-trays for the drawers.
❤
Why do you never use a rive knife on your table saw
👍
Ideas for adaptability and usage are running rampant in my brain.
Можно было и корпус на cnc сделать, а не мучиться с циркулярной пилой.
Not using a pusher board is giving me great anxiety.
Tedium! But nice!
