Workshop Table Tips Truck Bed To Build a ROLLING PLYWOOD STORAGE CART!! (Best Rolling Plywood Storage Rack--TIPS + FULL BUILD)

Plywood is one of the most difficult lumber varieties to store. It takes up a huge amount of space, it's unwieldy, and yet we always need some around. This short video from The Honest Carpenter will show you how to build a great, convenient rolling plywood storage cart, that also doubles as a decent general purpose lumber rack!

NOTE: Plywood storage carts tend to be BIG! This is because plywood itself is big--typically 4'X8'.

The plywood storage cart I built in this video is about:
40" wide, 96" long, and 56" tall

I used 3/4" sandeply plywood to build the cart.

The design of the plywood/lumber storage cart is a central A-frame on a flat plywood deck, with 10-degree walls for lean. One side of the cart is meant to hold full sheets of plywood. The other side of the cart is meant to hold lumber cut-offs in 3 "boxes."

The base of the rolling plywood cart is a 2x4 platform on 4" lockable casters.

Cutting the bevels for the A-frame is probably the hardest part of the rolling plywood storage cart build. I used my circular, and the table saw, to cut most of the 10-degree bevels.

To set a circular saw blade at an appropriate angle, it sometimes helps to cut a scrap on the miter saw at your desired angle. Then, use this scrap to set the circular saw angle.

I used glue and brads for most of the plywood storage cart build. But, I also fortified most components with 1-1/2" trim screws.

To save room in your shop, it's best to line the rolling plywood cart up with a door. This way, when the door is open, you can draw full sheets out through the door!
