DIY Canned Food Storage Rack (Easy)

[@ilenesaun]

I am a southpaw. It is rare to find a how-to video so calm, clear, and complete! There not one jot of miss information or confusion , I am positive that my fans will enjoy this outstanding psnt ft y lesson!

[@DIYMAN]

Thanks!

[@osiyopeaceosiyopeace4807]

This would work well in a coat closet and still hang your coats up .

[@donnagunn4124]

I like the easy build of this. Small enough to handle but it looks like it can hold a lot of cans. Thank you for sharing. I am going to try this one.

[@DIYMAN]

You’re welcome! Thanks for watching!

[@danielhanawalt4998]

Watched a few kitchen organization videos but didn't see any like this. Decided to search can food organizers. Saw this and it's exactly what I want to build. We have lots of canned foods and sitting them on shelves isn't working. Always end up putting new cans in front of older ones instead of rotating them to use the oldest first.

[@goggypuddles]

Pretty simple measurements, giving me the confidence to execute this goal for a friend

[@DIYMAN]

Great! So glad I could help

[@battleofarmageddon1366]

Best DIY tutorial ever!

[@DIYMAN]

Thank you!

[@ifiwooddesigns]

Absolutely genius. Definitely what I need in my newly renovated pantry. Way too small to put shelves but can solve ‘can’ problems for now. 😂 How soon before a big trash can tilt-pull out for kitchen? Hate using aluminum ones or with lids. Thanks again!!!

[@DIYMAN]

Thanks man! I should do a trash can like that. That would be a good project

[@1realtruthrightnow742]

THIS is the video I needed. THANK YOU!

[@DIYMAN]

You’re welcome!

[@conradodell9251]

Thanks for being clear about the dimensions and materials, all I gotta do is run out to the wood shop and slap it together thanks

[@DIYMAN]

No problem!

[@kimberlystark3944]

Awesome! Can't wait to build this!

[@DIYMAN]

Cool! Thanks for watching!

[@andielliott7721]

Yep...going to do this project! Thanks!

[@DIYMAN]

No problem!

[@CoryBoudinot]

So cool I need a couple of them for my friend Catherine wise......

[@ftroop211]

Best video i've found to build can storage, i'm building it now but was wondering how far from the bottom is your center pieces, I know you said the top was 4in from top, so would the bottom be 4in up from bottom?

[@angie_hutchings]

Imma make 4 of these. Thanks for the video

[@DIYMAN]

No problem!

[@drumminsonlive9199]

I want one in my metal building and seeing how well it worked out for you I’m going to do it. I think I want to vent through the wall so I won’t have a hole in the ceiling… thanks!

[@DIYMAN]

No problem!

[@ginnyskjolaas517]

This is awesome. I want one in my pantry

[@DIYMAN]

Thanks!

[@mhansome1]

Thank you.

[@julietphillips1991]

That is neat! It's easy to make, holds a lot and you won't have to be searching in a cupboard for cans you can't see and can't reach!

[@DIYMAN]

Thanks! Yes, this was a pretty simple project

[@ForTheLoveOfHomes]

Thank you!

[@imeldadominguez-najarro338]

Thank you 😊 that was such a great idea

[@DIYMAN]

You’re welcome! Thanks for watching

[@denniscarter483]

Well done !

[@DIYMAN]

Thanks!

[@loveshine7819]

I love watching your project!… So creative and similar to what I’m working towards - i’ve consciously downsized into a studio where I am working to make the most of the space and I found that I can create a shallow can/mason jar/spice rack 5’ tall freestanding cabinet behind one of the doors, no more than 20 inches wide and I’ll plan to put approximate 3 inch feet on the bottom so that it will rest flush against the wall, about the baseboard.. I’ve been doing a lot of research and trying to figure out the best way to create strong shelf construction where I don’t have a cabinet backing to rely on for support as that would eat into the very shallow space available. I’m not sure if nails or screws and glue would be enough to attach half inch thick shelves (1/2” x 4”) to 1 inch thick frame ( using a 1” x 4” but would prefer not to see nails or screws)… also have looked into cutting a groove to slide shelves into which would be my most preferred method but I have minimal tools. I did just buy a routing type bit for my drill. The last option is using glue for the shelves but then using very short nails to nail in a .25” concave/cove quarter round into the corners of the shelves underneath as brackets, essentially. Can you give your best recommendation of what the strongest construction might be, using minimal tools?

[@DIYMAN]

I’m having difficulty picturing what you’re describing. I have had some pretty good success hanging shelves with pocket holes and cabinet screws into the studs in the wall as long as there is some decent frame work to hold the structure of the shelves together.

[@JamesThompson-xl4yu]

Do you have a cut list in txt format?

[@DIYMAN]

I don’t. I’m very sorry

[@jadeharmon8895]

Do you think this could be made in an unfinished space using studs that are showing?

[@DIYMAN]

Yeah, I don’t see why not

[@JacobRaber-qf3xr]

Where can I buy one of these?

[@marsattacksagain]

It would be would be great if you could do a video for making one of these for soda cans. I have an RV with a small fridge so we can't keep the sodas there and we are creativity challenged. There is absolutely nothing on Amazon. It needs to be a wall mount on the top header of the slide. Our header is at least 8 inches tall. I'm guessing the design would be about four rows at three cans per row. It would have to be no more than 27 inches wide. RVs are wall and space challenged. We drink lots of canned water and can't have things sitting on the floor. The lighter-weight the material the better. We are currently traveling full time for business so that's a lot of cans! 😁 Dish needs to be tasteful and require as little sewing as possible. So we'd like to use pre-existing precut Lumber as much as possible. Thanks for your consideration ❤

[@DIYMAN]

I wish I was able to help you. I’m right in the middle of a big move. I won’t be able to work on projects for a few more months.

[@cindywright9540]

Use his model and adjust the width of the slots to fit pop cans. Easy peasy!

[@CoryBoudinot]

Think u 😢

[@paulwalker2561]

What am i missing? Im not ending up with a 4" column. 5+½+5+½+5+½+5+½=22. I only have 3" left. I'm a novice @ wordworking. 3" is too small for a Campbell's can & too big for tuna. I have the frames done but... HELP! The way you explained it, the interior is 25" x 25"

[@paulwalker2561]

Well, it looks like it works with 4 ¾ spacing. That'll still hold the magical fruit

[@nomanejane5766]

Nice!!

[@DIYMAN]

Thanks!

[@futbolera427]

Final size measurements?

[@subdawg1331]

awesome ooops coping

[@carolcarol5118]

Do you make them to sell?

[@DIYMAN]

I don’t. Sorry

[@Michaellaj]

You should make to sell I was just about to ask the same question. This is a genius concept indeed

[@DIYMAN]

Thanks you! Maybe I should 🤔

Sasquatch intro! Yes they exist.

[@malbowz1257]

"If you have basic wood working tools, you can build one just like it." Proceeds to build it with a table saw, nail gun, miter saw. These aren't basic. Most people don't have these.

[@seasonedsofisticate1901]

Easy is relative. If you have all the woodworking equipment, maybe? But to the average person, making this is not easy, sir.

[@snarkylive]

You can do this with a hand saw and a hammer, any idiot can make this.

[@THECROWman84]

Well if you don't have the equipment or the knowledge, then you wouldn't be making this now would you.

[@seasonedsofisticate1901]

@@THECROWman84 not true. Many watch KZbin videos to learn how to or see how others made something or did something they need or want to make or do. There are ways around not having all the equipment used in the video. So your statement that I and others would not try it if they didn’t have all the equipment used in the video I don’t agree with. So, while it might not be easy for those without all the equipment that does not mean it can’t be done. Might not be as easy and that’s why I said easy is relative. Now my Dad was a Carpenter and Woodworker. For him, this would have been easy. He would have been able to whip this up in no time. For me, not so much but I would try it. Even though I don’t have all the equipment to cut the wood, I can get the wood cut somewhere so I’d have to improvise on that part. And I would never attempt to saw it by hand but someone might. It might not be easy, but it can be done. Anyway, I was simply stating easy is relative…depending on the individual. It was a reply to the ‘easy’ mentioned in the title.

[@9ernorm84]

Since when is a table saw a basic tool

[@whytho-s4y]

You can still make something like this with basic hand tools, a bit of enthusiasm and initiative.
