Tom Cancelleri Posted September 8, 2015 Report Share Posted September 8, 2015 Did you take any pictures of the construction process? Materials? Why not journal this fantastic build? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post weithman5 Posted September 8, 2015 Popular Post Report Share Posted September 8, 2015 i saw the title "scrap bin" and i think this would make a better title for the "general woodworking" part of the forum Okay, here's a quick journal.Buy one sheet of baltic birch ply. Cut into pieces. Screw back together. You are done.this reminds me of the old joke where some smart ass fractured his leg. an orthopedist charged him 5000 dollars to put a screw in it during surgery. the smart ass wanted this itemized. the ortho sent him a bill that said stainless steel screw $1knowing where to put it $4999 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodger. Posted September 8, 2015 Report Share Posted September 8, 2015 Okay, here's a quick journal.Buy one sheet of baltic birch ply. Cut into pieces. Screw back together. You are done.does the bin have dividers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vyrolan Posted September 8, 2015 Report Share Posted September 8, 2015 It's more of a shelving unit than a "bin"...and the photo is too far to tell if you clocked the screws like the hand tool cabinet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric. Posted September 8, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2015 Yes it has two dividers, so essentially three compartments for long, medium, short.And you don't even have to ask...you know I clocked the screws. A piece this fine deserves the closest attention to detail. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Llama Posted September 9, 2015 Report Share Posted September 9, 2015 I like the exposed joinery on this one! It wouldn't be an Eric project without that touch 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Cancelleri Posted September 9, 2015 Report Share Posted September 9, 2015 I like the exposed joinery on this one! It wouldn't be an Eric project without that touch It just happens to be a Green& Greene inspired piece. I do think you should've built it from pallets and barn wood. Think of the flare it'd give the shop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Janello Posted September 9, 2015 Report Share Posted September 9, 2015 This is gonna cause trouble. When your planes look over and see your scrap is just as neatly organized as they are in "their new box" they won't feel so special any more.

Eric. Posted September 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2015 This was just the prototype. The real deal will be built of cocobolo and ebony and painted baltic birch color. this reminds me of the old joke where some smart ass fractured his leg. an orthopedist charged him 5000 dollars to put a screw in it during surgery. the smart ass wanted this itemized. the ortho sent him a bill that said stainless steel screw $1knowing where to put it $4999Sounds to me like the doctor is the smartass. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric. Posted September 21, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2015 Yeah, super tight growth rings and beautiful, consistent grain. I'm saving it for a special project. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
