Just thought I'd show off my latest shop project, and maybe inspire a little shop cleanup. As you can see I condensed about 4 garbage cans of scraps that didn't move easily ,and the piece I wanted was always in the bottom of the can, into a rolling cart where I can actually find something. It works great. The plan is in a old fine woodworking mag #184 ,Pg 14

I did something similar a couple weeks ago - Nice being able to glance at the wood rack to brainstorm options - :)

I have an A frame that I use for sheet goods and sheet stock cut offs. In the center are a bunch of openings that I store solid wood cut offs in and it is a real pain to see what is in there.

I need to come up with a location to so something like yours, it sure would be a lot handier.

Yeah, the bane of woodworking, cutoffs. Chuck it, keep it, where to put it so you can find it? Nice solution.

OMG, you found my trash cans full of cut offs! Great looking new storage. It looks like something I might have to do since my cut off bins look exactly like your old ones.
