Nice build, but would have mounted the wheels centred under rib one and three, much stronger and perfectly balanced the weights in half and stops the plywood structure from sagging in the middle.

@Iliketomakestuff 2 года назад

Good call!

@dberm22 2 года назад

Or just add one in the center. But I think the box construction and light weight of the Legos makes this plenty strong already

@patrickschardt7724 2 года назад

Doing the real world check is a must due to tolerance issues I made 3 sets of spice racks. The first set (two) had the jars fit just fine based on their reported size The next two sets (1 big one and 2 smaller racks) I am currently sanding the side walls because the glass jars aren’t all the same size. I even put a small gap on each side Double check the real world measurements match the theoretical ones from the model at each step of the build. This is especially true for things that will be stored in the final assembly. It will save you so much time and hassle Great table. Your tutorials are fantastic. Even though I am missing many of the tools, you let the viewers know how to do it without those tools. Also huge thumbs up for the way you do promotions and sponsors

@jonnyphenomenon 2 года назад

I wouldn't want to be married to a very specific container size like this. Those totes get brittle and fall apart over time. What are the odds you would be able to go right out and buy some extras 5 years from now. The good news tho is that it wouldn't be hard to turn those "cleats" into shelves in the future.

@Tik_Tak 2 года назад

Hey Bob, amazing build! Just wanted to point out that at 9:12 the wheel closest to you only has three bolts put in. Maybe you figured this out later or during editing, but just wanted to make sure you didn’t mess up anything. I look forward to the next video!

Those are the best LEGO storage boxes. My whole LEGO storage system is based off the shallow Sterilite bins, and I have 10s of thousands of LEGO. I mainly love how shallow they are so I don't have trouble finding a brick at the bottom of a bin.

@MatthewBowman 2 года назад

That's more useful than I'd expected. The biggest change I'd make to it (other than making it counter-height) would be to include a folding panel on the side which you can prop up to use as a surface to sit at. That's a pretty easy modification, though, and if you can follow these plans then you already know how to add that in.

@gardengatesopen 2 года назад

Years ago I used this exact system for my hubs closet. I made the plastic containers shallow, so they never got too full, or heavy. But alas... Over time it was a fail. The plastic containers sorta collapsed in the center side walls. Which simply meant the sides no longer ran across the cleats. Meaning the plastic container just fell thru. I suppose it could have been user error. I really had used shallow containers to prevent weight inside the bins. So, maybe his socks grew heavier over time? hahaha, I dunno... 😆 But eventually he had destroyed the whole system. Maybe the strength of the plastic just caved over time? Legos should not be as heavy as socks (I guess) so let's hope this stays usable for a long time!

adding splines to the corners would be a nice added feature for aesthetics/sturdiness and stability of the corners possibly getting bumped during play time.

@Ballade90 2 года назад

Seems like it would've been a good idea to add small walls to the side where the lego sorter would go, that way you can just shove them towards it with abandon. Of course you could probably just take some wood together, glue/screw it together and make an attachment to act as that wall which might work better.

Only thing I would do differently is the Lego plates on top like you did on the original table. Otherwise great build! This would also make a great table for board games and tabletop RPGs, and you could easily make shelves to ride on those cleats for anything that doesn't store easily in a bin.
