PROJECT #2311

Skill Level: Intermediate

Time: 5 Days

Cost: $350

I'm getting to the point that I don't build general purpose shop carts anymore. I'd rather build a cabinet for a specific purpose. Something functional with handy access prioritized above all else. I've been spraying woodworking finishes since the 1990's with a variety of compressor powered spray rigs and recently, upgraded to a 5-stage turbine powered spray system. So, I needed a place to safely store the turbine, wrangle the hose, and stow related accessories. A turbine sprayer represents a significant investment, so I didn't want it kicking around the shop.

1 Breaking down full sheets of plywood can be a challenge, but a large crosscut sled makes the job a little easier. Here, my "X-Cut" sled helps trim the sides to length. If you want to skip full sheets of plywood, this project could actually be build with 24" x 48" pre-cut handy panels.

2 A setup gauge quickly helps you dial in the dado width.
