    Liked and subscribed ! I want to pay you a huge complement: the ingenious and simple way you figured out to transfer the hole patterns from the back of the tools to the board using tape was 'phenomenal'. I am a design engineer and can appreciate the effectiveness and simplicity of what you did. I will use your method to perfectly mount my Rear Wing Aleron on the rear decklid of my sports car. I had developed similar methods using tape but the particular twist you used just can not be beat! with all my experience over 20 yrs. in one of the world's biggest auto studios and you beat me with a simple variation on how to use the tape! lol well done little lady! keep up the good work !!

    Brilliant! When my wife saw me watching this video, she stayed to see what was going on. First thing she says to me is "This girl's legit!" I agree 100%.
    My wife is uber handy too and often gives me great advice on projects I'm working on. She learned from me, but is able to see problems in a different light and often saves me huge headaches by coming up with a better way to do something than the way I was doing it.
    Loved this video!

    One of the nicest drill/battery cabinets I have seen. Really like the drop down shelf for your bit storage. Well designed. Along with the tape trick for mounting things with keyhole slots, I sometimes put the back of an item on my printer and make a copy of the back. It works well on smaller things.

  • @slackymac2756
    @slackymac2756 Рік тому +1

    Bought the plans and built it - thanks! Extremely perfect for my humble collection of drivers. Can I coin a learning phrase: "micromistakes"? I made a bunch of them. 🙂 Of course, I had to tinker with the design, though my router micromistake perfectly matched yours! My drawer sits on 1/2 plywood runners glued to the top of the shelf underneath the drawer as I wanted to take pressure off of the pins. A little wax and it slides just fine.
    Of note, the plug of the powerstrip you linked is wider than the forstner bit hole. No issue for me as I located the strip on the side of the box to be able to switch it off. I also have access to the additional strip outlets if needed. Not as clean as having it behind the false front, but more utilitarian.

  • @stadleroux

    I bought your plans for this project a couple of weeks ago and have finally managed to finish making my own charging station the day before yesterday.
    Many mistakes were followed by many do-overs, with the result that I ended up with lots of off-cuts and two sizeable pieces of wood left out of a whole board! 😊🤭
    But it does the job of providing room for all my cordless stuff, which includes an impact driver, three drills, a random orbital sander and all their batteries and three different brands' chargers, so I'm feeling pretty chuffed with myself, thank you very much! 😎
    My phone's calculator app worked overtime to convert all the measurements to metric for me, but I managed to make only one mistake, I think, as far as that was concerned.
    If I may, just one tiniest of tiny correction: In the cut list on p3 you show the pull-out tray to be 18 7/8'' wide, which is correct, of course, since it has to slide in and out, unlike all the other shelves, but on p8 you show the same pull-out tray to be 19'' wide, same as the shelves. It's no biggie and anyone who's paying attention should pick it up, but I just thought I should mention it. Good grief, I wish I could draw plans like that!

  • @billboy7390
    @billboy7390 2 роки тому +1

    Turned out nice and could be easily modified for the brand of cordless tools you have.
    One thing most people don’t know is when applying edge banding a j-roller or a roller is not the tool to use. You should always use the edge of a screwdriver or a steel rod to burnish the banding, pressing/rubbing fairly hard to force the hot glue into the edge of the plywood and a file is the best way to trim the excess banding. Those trimmer’s can catch the grain of the wood and mess up or chip the banding. A very sharp block plane a chisel can work.

    Very nicely made Marie much better than your other one. On your drop down draw (wow trying saying that fast ha ha ha) you put your drill bits in there but seeing as there are no sides, what is stoping the bits sliding out one day when you just throw a new set in one day, and a set comes out the other side. If you put in a couple of sides that would solve it, just saying don't shoot the messenger ha ha ha.

      Yeah initially thought of adding thin strips on the side but decided to wait on that and see how I feel after using it for a while (and see if things do indeed tend to fall out). So might be an addition down the line.

    This is SPECTACULAR. Very efficient use of space! I love the pull out drawer and the false front solution to the chargers; I will be stealing both of those when I eventually brave the heat and get back into my shop. I also love the quick bit access solution! One thing I might recommend is rounding over the T's where the drills hang; I did this on my current drill station and it has saved me many gouged fingers. As always, this is great and thank you so much for sharing!
    PS - I envy you so much for having a Home Depot that will cut things for you.

    Same idea but built for laptops down to smart phones. The design should match current decors. Perhaps 2 styles, one for modern and one for traditional (for us older folks). In our house there is 14 different places where devices reside and are charged. One central place (kitchen perhaps?) would be a lot better? Just an idea, Glenn H.
