Thanks to mobile trolleys of this kind, tools can be arranged clearly and transported with ease. What\u2019s more, the practical design means the top doubles as a work surface. DIY fan Daniel Kalb is just one of the people to be impressed by these advantages. In his spare time, the freelance construction site manager runs the \u201cLet\u2019s do it\u201d DIY channel<\/a> on YouTube along with the website of the same name<\/a>. Although he already had a workshop trolley he had made himself, he needed a new one. In addition to being relatively small, the original trolley only had a wooden frame and the drawers didn\u2019t provide enough space for tool inserts. Following his recent positive experience with an aluminium profile when designing a camera tripod, and given that he was very familiar with item from his time in the industry, it didn\u2019t take Kalb long to decide on the MB Building Kit System<\/a> for the frame structure of his new workshop trolley.<\/p>\n<\/div> \u201cI\u2019d always been a fan of item and I still had a user account<\/a>, so I could also access all the benefits directly online,\u201d he revealed. The first step was to design the aluminium frame. Kalb started by designing the top and bottom sections, which involved using Angle Fasteners. He opted for Standard Fasteners<\/a> to connect the top and bottom using vertical struts. By his own admission, Kalb likes to be on the safe side, so he reinforced the connection with an Automatic Fastener<\/a>. The free internal grooves of the aluminium profiles<\/a> were to accommodate wooden boards specially cut to size to create the outer walls of the trolley. In the first video in his four-part series about building the workshop trolley, the YouTuber provides full details of the design:<\/p>\n<\/div> The aluminium frame, which he had already placed on castors, created the basis for the home-made workshop trolley. Despite his previous experience with item profile technology, Kalb was still impressed. \u201cYes, I\u2019m familiar with item material, but I\u2019d never have thought it could be so incredibly sturdy. It also offers you fantastic flexibility,\u201d he says. Although most of the remaining steps, such as making the drawers, were nothing new for the experienced wood expert, applying the coat of white paint at the end was a different matter. Even so, Kalb was successful at his first attempt.<\/p>\n<\/div> So what\u2019s next? \u201cThe grooves give you amazing flexibility. It goes without saying that I\u2019ve already had a few ideas about how I can extend my home-made workshop trolley. An additional grip would be an interesting option, for example. Yes, there\u2019s a grip you can pull, but a round bar would definitely be worth considering \u2013 to hold a roll of paper towel, for instance,\u201d continues Kalb. There\u2019s one thing that would really make his day, though. \u201cMaybe someone will consider building another workshop trolley based on my design. That would be fantastic,\u201d he says. Whether out of sheer curiosity or to gain inspiration for making your own workshop trolley, you can see the finished product in the final video:<\/p>\n<\/div> Keen to stay up to date on the various ways that item products are being put to use? Anyone who uses screwdrivers, wrenches, hammers and pliers at work or at home knows how invaluable workshop trolleys can be when it comes to keeping things tidy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":4886,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[28,153,180,26],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6049","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-industrias","category-lego-para-ingenieros","category-primary-building-kit-es","category-saber-como"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/item24us.news\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6049","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/item24us.news\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/item24us.news\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/item24us.news\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/item24us.news\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6049"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/item24us.news\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6049\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6205,"href":"https:\/\/item24us.news\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6049\/revisions\/6205"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/item24us.news\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4886"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/item24us.news\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6049"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/item24us.news\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6049"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/item24us.news\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6049"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Individual ideas demand flexible material<\/h2>\n
