Excellent build and video! Thanks for sharing this with us.

[@WhosTheVoss]

Thanks John! :)

[@paullobwein1632]

Mate what a great video. Much more creative and fun to watch than a few out there. Love the humour! 😉👍 also I like the simplicity of the design.

[@WhosTheVoss]

Thanks Paul! I didn't want it to look overly plywood-y if you know what I mean ;)

[@ScreenPrintR]

Love, Parade around the shop, wave, wave, wave!!! Great personality bro. Don't lose. Thank you for the awesome video.

[@WhosTheVoss]

Thanks buddy :)

[@nyrsavery16]

Love the channel and the way you do your videos. Also love the creativity you have

[@WhosTheVoss]

Thanks buddy! Glad you enjoy the content :) :)

[@jarexxsuvexx8212]

🤗These look really nice. Love when aesthetic is factored in wood cart/stand builds. Now some dewalt color or wood staining will make them look even cooler.👍🏾

[@WhosTheVoss]

Id love to have some dewalt yellow in my shop, its just a wee bit out of budget :P

[@timdaniels2094]

Thanks!

[@WhosTheVoss]

Thanks Tim! :D

[@cabman86]

I have an 8x12 shop. I built carts or my table saw, planer, jointer and band saw. I built a ramp so I can roll them outside to make room in the shop.

[@WhosTheVoss]

Nice! Easy shop expansion :)

[@franks4973]

Exactly the solution I was looking for and to use some extra lumber I have atound. Thx!

[@WhosTheVoss]

Niiiice! Happy building!!

[@alfredlille]

I was thinking of using this small footprint for a table saw. Not a flip cart but using the basic style to make a fully modular work setup.

[@WhosTheVoss]

That would be fancy! My uncle is going to use this format to make it so his miter saw goes underneath his workbench, and the other side is simply extra workspace, no tool

[@jimgreenhouse214]

Great cart. I need to see the mistakes to learn what to look for. Thank you for that

[@WhosTheVoss]

Anytime Jim!! ;) still have plenty of mistakes to come lol

[@Anonymous-b3m]

[@joeprior7311]

Great design

[@WhosTheVoss]

Thanks buddy!

[@NWGR]

Awesome job and excellent quality and presentation. Subscribed. I like how your take on the flip cart differs from the typical sheet goods version.

[@WhosTheVoss]

Thanks :) and I KNOW RIGHT?! All the other carts are just plywood. I wish I would have turned the rounded part of the 2x4 into a chamfer or rounded over a little more to really highligh the lines. Still love em though :)

[@craftedbyalvint]

Ive never seen or thought about doing joinery and half lap with 2x4 softwoods. Kinda awesome

[@WhosTheVoss]

Totally awesome! :)

That was some surprisingly good musicianship sir!

[@WhosTheVoss]

Thanks buddy!! :)

[@davidbentley4744]

Have you thought about doing a layout sheet for the flip cart like you did for the planter to show the best way to do our cuts to minimize the waste, and maximize output to make the most of the material one has on hand. I hope this makes sense. I really like you videos and access to plan. Have you thought about building a drill driven drum sander

[@WhosTheVoss]

Those drum sanders are pretty sweet, my dad made one using an old washing machine motor. I would like to upgrade my flip cart plans, they were made before I dialed in drawing up plans 😂😂

[@ClarkyClark]

Hey, literally just found your channel today, looking for this exact thing. Thank you! Subbed and gonna binge your vids. Oh and I grabbed your plans, and I'll try them out. Thanks again, mate!

[@WhosTheVoss]

Thanks Clark!! Happy building :)

[@pteddie6965]

I love the flip carts. I am a new subscriber. Thanks for the videos. BTW: Thanks for the info on the Klein combo square. I just ordered one from Amazon.

[@WhosTheVoss]

Thanks buddy! Bang out a few of those carts!! ;) you're gunna like the klein, my only nack is that I like the swansons measurements more than the ones on klein; but, it's also set up for electricians.

[@robertsmith3518]

Nice video . Cheers

[@WhosTheVoss]

Thanks buddy! :)

[@PaganWizard]

8:16 I was honestly confused about the half lap joints that didn't line up properly in the corners on the underside of your cart. Was that just an oops that you forgot to edit out?? It finally made sense later in the video. I really like the look of these carts, I don't know of I want to build them as flip carts, or modify them to be stationary tables, or both.

[@WhosTheVoss]

Badda bing! Glad it all made sense in the end :) they are fun to build, I need to build another one myself :P

[@cntrybug6583]

Thank you

[@WhosTheVoss]

No, thank you :)

[@Sneaka_Freak2021]

Hello! Great video. I can't wait to get my shop all set up now. We just bought a house and are finally getting the house settled so I can start getting my shop together soon and these will be the FIRST thing I make for all my new toys! Quick question, if you don't mind? Have you ever thought about setting up or do you already have a Discord..?? I would just LOVE to be able to connect with some of the other people in your community cuz I know anyone here watching your vids has got to be as awesome as you are! THANK YOU for NOT making videos SHOVING all these expensive a$$ tools, that the average person can't afford, down our throats!!! I would LOVE to see some tips & tricks vids from you tho. Just an idea..🤔 😉 Keep being you and making these. Have a GREAT day!

[@WhosTheVoss]

Congratulations on the house!! :D i tried to make a connection spot on my website but it required wayy too much maintenance and attention. :/ ive got a few tips videos scripted, I wanted to finish off the year focusing on project builds to boost the number of free plans on the website :) Happy building!!

[@EllenBruno]

If I need a bigger top what would I change? My router table I want to mount is 26 inches wide. Thank you for any help you can give!

[@WhosTheVoss]

The planer was too wide so i mounted it sideways, you could always elongate the tops so everything is the same, but the tops aren't square, they are rectangle if you dont want the tool sticking over the sides

[@davidbentley4744]

how deep is the flip section. measurements good but I can figure out the width of the draw section. thanks again for a great video and instructions

[@WhosTheVoss]

The tallest tool I have in my flip carts is 30" tall, and it's quite close to the front, my drawers are 21-1/4" wide, 10-1/2" deep and 3" tall (not counting the front board that sticks out. There are separate plans for the drawer build in my Part 3 video as well :)

[@cameronhotchkies2603]

Thanks for the video! There seems to be a change (or typo) with the downloadable plans. The whiteboard (at 2:30) has section "1" as 29 1/2", which is the same as my hand calculation for a scaled up version. The plans have it as 29 1/4" though. Is that a typo or a correction you found later?

[@WhosTheVoss]

I remeasured and re-worked the plans a few months after this video posted; follow the plans buddy :)

[@elrey8876]

[@Wolfy459.]

I think I have the same Kobalt miter saw. The blade is JUNK! Do you have a recomendation for an upgrade that won't cost too much? Thanks for all the great ideas!

[@WhosTheVoss]

Ummmmmm, I use Spyder blades from Lowes, which are a wee cashy, however you dont replace them too often

[@fdort3971]

@WhosTheVoss I know why the wood has a lip...cuz you left it on time out too long in the corner!!! Bahaha...sorry couldn't resist...Lots of us have "that project " that sits in the corner for a long time...in my opinion it's bcuz there is something not quite right about it and needs to ferment in the back of our minds longer... Btw you have a lovely voice! I love your humour too...

[@WhosTheVoss]

🤣🤣 i think youre right! You gotta have thinkin projects too. Start them, and let them fester for a while :) I like it!

[@fdort3971]

Exactly! I have attention deficit...my mind never rests...usually the ones that sit for a while for me...turn out better than the original plan

[@WhosTheVoss]

So i plan my weekly videos up to three months in advance, and I script them two weeks before I shoot. Two reasons, it can fester for a little while in case there is something I want to add, and so I can get additional materials needed :) I totally get where you are coming from

[@AZbone]

[@billszymborski584]

Great video and funny personality! I need to build this. I am hoping to make one much thinner to fit in a tight space in a garage. We live that fairytale with two cars and a zero turn mower in the shop/garage. I plan to put a small drill press and a Harbor Freight bandsaw on it. Do you or any of your subscribers know if it will be stable enough if it is just big enough to fit the bandsaw to the smallest width?

[@WhosTheVoss]

Shouldn't be too tipsy since the other tool will be hanging underneath. Might run into issues if you have a board hanging off the end to cut/drill it

[@billszymborski584]

@@WhosTheVoss That is a good point to keep in mind! I will use an adjustable roller stand for long pieces.

[@LuisRodriguez-zf3xk]

In your plans I don't see a length of the half lap joints in the dimensions (Spelled Correctly) 😊 I was wondering what it was. Thanks in advance.

[@WhosTheVoss]

Like the depth it goes into the hole? Mine were 3", you can go as deep as the 2x4, or 3-1/2" :)

[@davidbentley4744]

How deep are your lap joint. I think they are 1 1/2. I followed you plan and cut 2 3/4, but after seeing you end product it looks a lot more shallow

[@WhosTheVoss]

Ill send ya a few pics today/tomorrow :) you cut away some of the bottom of the 2x6 after routering them so they look more shallow

[@davidbentley4744]

Ok. I am trying to build this and am getting to the 2 x 6 top. but I am not understanding the way you put it together. It looks like there miter in your instruction doesn't seam to match. It look cut some off the top and shortened them. I hope this makes sense. Mind are 2 3/4 deep. Yours look like they are 1 3/4, am I right

[@WhosTheVoss]

Hey David, I saw your email this morning. Ill snap a few pictures with my tape measure today/ tomorrow :)

[@DawnBrabant]

In your plans it calls for 28x23 plywood. Is that correct as your video states cut 23”squares.

[@WhosTheVoss]

Yikos, I slapped a tape measure across them just now, they are in fact 23" x 23" squares :) thanks for letting me know!!

[@Ellerocks01]

I'm new to this so I know nothing lol. But i need something to put my table saw on. I cant find the depth on my mitre saw, but if I do, how deep do I make those cuts for bottom pieces, boards 1,2,3 and 4?

[@WhosTheVoss]

The depths should be on the plans listed in the description :)

[@Ellerocks01]

@@WhosTheVoss sorry I thought I read it wrong, because it said 1 1/2 inches, I thought that was to deep for the 2x4 if i am cutting on the 2 inch side only leave half an inch, is that correct?

[@rehutto1]

Helpful video! I noticed you use a lot of Craftsman tools. I’ve been thinking of buying into that brand. Would you recommend them?

[@calebgibbons24]

I’ve had craftsman for a long time. My shop vac is bullet proof. They’re great starter tools for small projects, but as you get into bigger and more precise projects it would be well worth the upgrade to bigger, more precise machines like Powermatic or Laguna.

[@WhosTheVoss]

Dewalt is expensive, nice, but expensive. Im not a big fan of Kobalt; I work at Lowes and get a lot of returns for them and havnt had much luck myself. As for Ryobi, Milwaukee, Metabo, (or the orange brand that starts with R), ive never used those. But Ive had good luck with the Craftsman set, and they usually run a "buy one get one free" deal. Right now you can get a 4amp hour battery with fast charger for $129, and a free tool (i have my eye on another palm router) which is $129 by itself. That promo runs through December. (Ps im not sponsored by anyone). If I was to start building a new battery powered set, id look at what tools are included with each brand, some have cooler tools (kobalt has some cool battery powered stuff). Anywho, I like my Craftsman v20 stuff. Both Kobalt and Craftsman have lifetime warranties on their tools as well. Literally bring the tool into the store, no questions asked you walk out with a new tool.

[@rehutto1]

Thanks for the reply. I’ll definitely check them out. Maybe take advantage of the battery deal.

[@mikel9567]

Craftsman used to be great back when they were a Sears brand. My scroll saw is a Craftsman and it's over 30 years old and still works like a champ. My Craftsman miter saw though isn't holding up. I'll probably replace it with a Dewalt. I don't like modern day Craftsman tools. I think their quality has gone down hill, but the same can be said for most brands. I would consider Craftsman to be a good entry to mid level brand. They do what they are supposed to do, but you may not get the longevity out of them that you used to. I like Kobalt for their hand tools, never used their power tools. If you're just getting into the hobby, Harbor Freight's Bauer line and Hercules line are both great and surprisingly robust. I have a Bauer cordless drill that goes toe to toe with my Dewalt. If you are on a budget, Harbor Freight has some great products. I really like my Dewalt tools too. Nothing you see in Lowes or Home Depot is industrial quality though. Grizzly is another really good brand (and their catalog is great).

[@paulgendron8416]

I have a ton of Craftsman hand tools and handheld power tools and am very happy with them. As a matter of fact, I just had a 25 year old tape measure break, and of course I didn't have the reciept. After a little research with the CS agent, I found an exact replacement and got it for free. On the other hand, large power equipment, ie, Lawn mowers, air compressors, etc. are a different story. I would not reccomend Craftsman power equipment, new and especially used, to any one. I had bad experinces with both of the above. The self-propelled mower had a tiny piece in the drive that held the wheel in place break which rendered the mower unusable and that part was discontined. And yes, I did check all the online parts places. So the mower ended up on the street. The engine still ran great, no oil burning and started with one pull. Such a shame. The air compressor's reed valve broke and it was discontined as well. After a lot of searching I was lucky, really lucky, to find another after market reed valve and with a tiny modification of the pump head was able to install it. This is why I would not recommend Craftsman large power equipment to anyone. It's the littlest critical pieces that are discontinued that make the difference between a repair and becoming junk. Craftsman has a great reputation but with experiences like this it will begin to falter. These are only my experiences with Craftsman, so take this for what it's worth.

Thank you for sharing your plans for free! The average "how to" channel is no longer about teaching, it's about charging for the plans, piling brand sponsor plugs into the video, and linking overpriced amazon hardware just to make affiliate link commissions... all on top of video monetization. I appreciate your desire to just share this for free and help us out.

[@AncoraImparoPiper]

That song really did it for me :) Other than that, I love your joinery but would it not be simpler to use just one type of lumber dimension e.g. all 2 x 6 or all 2 x 4's ? I think this would be a more efficient use of materials. Also it seems a bit over-built. I'm sure, though, those carts are bomb proof.

[@WhosTheVoss]

I liked the top being a little thicker than the than the legs, you could use 2x4's if you wanted to :) glad you liked the video!

No no no no no, if you have a miter saw, you can knock this one out. You got this!

Eight 2x4x8's and two 2x6x8's, a good thick 4' dowel rod, 4 casters, plus the plywood for the flipping part.
