In this video we try our had at reinforcing some of Icon plastic trays...after a few issues, it turned out pretty well!
Time Stamps
@0:00 Intro
-While I have never been a fan of plastic trays...we might wind up being better served using them as opposed to trying to work around them. This is in large part due to the long pattern Icon ratcheting wrenches.
@3:20 Plastic Fails
-Give it time, and it will fail. Want to avoid, or simply delay that for as long as possible.
@4:00 Cardboard and Foam
-Not much, but better than nothing
@4:45 Test Piece
-Start with what you are least likely to need/use.
@5:10 Drawer #2
-Lots right, lots that could be better.
--Hall Wrench Rack fits great, but minimizes the rest of the drawer space
--Long Icon's on a US General Magnetic Strip
@6:30 Kept the Plastic
-Between this drawer, and some shelves, I have kept a lot of packaging...glad I did
@6:58 Cleaning
-If unused, clean up the trays before foaming
@7:26 Shop Vac
-Not easy with one hand...lowered the volume for headphone users
@8:00 Cardboard Insert
-Seems minor, adds a lot of strength
@8:35 Customary Geese
@8:40 12 Year old Foam
-Yep, not going to spray
@9:33 Foamin' Friday the 13th
@9:40 GE Insulating Foam
-Went with 1" Expansion
@10:02 SAE Long Pattern Tray
@10:20 Metric Stubby
@10:34 SAE Ratcheting Stubby
-This is the guinea pig...if it works well I'm going straight into the other trays
@11:38 Better Ideas?
-If you are super knowledgeable with this stuff...what would you do? Epoxy? Make a mold? Different foam?
@13:04 First Run
-Single layer test
@13:58 Second Run - SAE Long Tray
-Decided to fit the cardboard NOW as opposed to after the foam cures
@15:28 Cardboard Placed
-Went down easy with no immediate consequences
@16:04 Weigh, or No Weigh
@17:10 SAE Foamed and Cardboarded
-Nothing crazy...yet
@18:18 Live Foaming
@19:55 Live Cardboard
-Probably smarter to wait a bit like I did with the previous 2 trays
@20:45 Not Done Yet
-There is still foam, so I'm still going to spray
--Maximizing my $3 investment, lol
@21:32 Fourth Run - Metric Long Tray
@21:55 1 Inch vs Big Gap
-I'm inclined to say the 1" is a better choice...can always add layers...
@22:55 Never Not a Problem
-One-by-one the metric wrenches slowly slipped out of the tray
--I think the impact is what pushed the foam out of the long pattern SAE tray...nothing major
@23:53 Saturday Night Update
-24 Hours later...how did it turnout?
-Stack of projects...even added a bonus socket tray since the can still wasn't fully empty
--Not sure I'll keep that tray, but didn't want to waste the foam
@25:50 Solid and Happy
-Amazing what a little foam can do...it just feels like a solid tray at this point
--Foam and cardboard add a lot of rigidity
@28:58 Metric Stubby Tray
-Where it all started...you can tell from the sound what the foam added
@30:08 Recap
-Sometimes, even when you don't necessarily like the trays, they are the best option
@33:00 Cart Updates
-Currently in a state of flux as we tweak it for the best layout...stay tuned for videos on that
