Flip Up Pivoting Plywood Cart - Reclaimed 2x4s

This is a demo of my Flip Up Plywood Cart in action. I built this from reclaimed 2x4's.
Please excuse the audio and video quality, this was shot on my iPhone, I will try and do better in the future!!!!

Nick...great job! Glad to see you are one of the "work smarter/not harder men. Can't wait to watch your other videos. Nice beard too!

[@bigbawls81]

That is exactly what I am looking for. Thanks Nick for sharing.

[@darrenpaulgreen]

Absolute genius my friend, thanks for the free plans!

[@NickMakes]

No problem, if you build one I would love to see the finished product 👍👍

[@woodamiright7373]

Was hoping someone did this! Awesome!

[@robertjames-life4768]

Just what I was looking for! Thanks. Now that I’m in my 50’s 3/4” sheets get my back squawking.

[@davidbryanwoodworksandmore]

Me too Robert. I’m telling you. I actually just picked up a pretty cool dolly for sheet goods. But this is cool if you want to make one. For sure.

[@robertjames-life4768]

@@davidbryanwoodworksandmore I built one, it’s great!

[@davidbryanwoodworksandmore]

@@robertjames-life4768 did you build this one exactly or something similar?

[@David-hm9ic]

You have a nice design and the plans that you've provided for free are excellent. I was thinking of making a similar cart from steel but you may have changed my mind. Unrelated, I have a sail from a small sailboat that has a Cork Island Race Week stamp on it. No idea how it ended up in Texas but I think it's a cool piece of history. I think I'll frame that corner of the sail for my cave.

[@NickMakes]

There is one little mistake in the plans I just identified a few days ago, the main deck top and bottom rail should be 2 inches longer. An easy fix with wood, not so easy with steel 😅. I'm glad you like the design. That sailboat story is awesome!!! Cork is a pretty small place in comparison to Texas 😂😂 but an important port if you were doing a Transatlantic journey!

[@craigmonteforte1478]

Pretty good design Nick I too usually work alone

[@toootankhamooon]

Super nice , thank you bro , awesome job

[@makeitmatt]

Awesome design, I just built a standard cart and now I already know that I need to upgrade lol.

[@bobbg9041]

That could be an infeed table for sheetgoods.as well as a work bench, assembly table and sheet goods storage cart, also with a few modifications it can be a long router table. Just pop out a plug plate and drop in a router lift both are held underneath.

[@NickMakes]

It could definitely be modified! I have thought about it but it's always full of sheets. If I was to use it for something else I would make it a little lower

[@lanceortiz8566]

That’s a great design!

[@NickMakes]

Lance Ortiz thanks Lance, appreciate it 👍

[@BCdesign1]

Nice video Nick!Great cart and the plans look excellent!

[@larrysturner3383]

I know this video is older but is the plan still available and how can I get it. I have tried clicking on the website but it never opens.

[@PunkR0ckz09]

What is the final footprint of the cart? I am not sure if I could use your design for my garage, it looks a bit deep. Hopefully you reply soon, thanks

[@dekeros-recreationalwoodwo6456]

Cool! Nice design and clever solution.

[@NickMakes]

DEKEROS.COM thank you! Appreciate it 👍

[@eldie3d]

This is awesome!!! Exactly what I was looking for!!! Unfortunately, the link to your website for the free plans are down! 😥😡🤬☹️ Is there another way I can access them? Thanks!!! Again, this is the best!!! I wouldn't really need a workbench or sawhorses - because this sheet cart converts into a workbench!!! Awesome!!! I need the free plans, PLEASE!!! THANKS!!!

[@shadesworkshop5213]

Great job Nick

[@cuttingedgehomerepair9905]

Do you have any info on those beautiful shop doors in the video

[@NickMakes]

Sure they are teak and were purchased and made by a company in Ireland called Munster joinery.

[@joedance14]

Very nice. I have been thinking about making something to help handle sheet goods. I built a lumber cart several months ago. Then I saw a video and article about panel saws. That got me to wondering if a panel cart could double as the framework for a panel saw. Looks like your design is very close to that. Good work! Best wishes.

[@NickMakes]

Awesome, glad to hear it!! Feel free to download the plans for free if they might help 👍👍

[@marksstudio]

Nice job man! Thank you.

[@irenebrowning]

Plans are gone, any chance of a repost of the plans?

[@icitrom]

Well done!

[@davidhoffmann4630]

How can I get a PDF of your plans

[@chillyspoon]

Super idea

[@Anoncore1]

Your website doesn’t exist anymore ? Can’t log in on any server for your plan ,

[@PamPeerceLanders]

Nick, Super design. I’d like to buy your plans, but on your website it says the store is closed. Indeed, after entering all my info, I was kicked back to the original page. How can I get your plans?

[@NickMakes]

Hi Pam, I no longer sell these plans as the cost of maintaining an E-commerce site was soo much, but I have added a free downloadable link in my website now :)

[@PamPeerceLanders]

Nick_Makes Thanks for the link! Yeah, I can certainly understand about the expense of maintaining a store. Even the cost of a secure website is pretty steep.

[@philipgearhart4323]

it might be a little easier to get to the second sheet by just sliding both shhets off and then sliding the top one back.

[@MonChouMoiToi]

I think you've done a good job. However, the presentation/demonstration is a total failure ..!!! LOL

[@NickMakes]

The presentation/demonstration was recorded in a single shot, on a crappy phone camera 7 years ago. My intention was to share a simple idea with others (for free...), and the hope was for it to be accepted with gratitude and without judgement. But hey, whatever goes..

[@sahelijo]

Nick, Your cart built is great, I am in the process of building a slightly smaller version of it and I hope that I will succeed in making it as functional as yours. Many thanks for the plans, much appreciated. I found them on the link that another commentator provided. By the way, love Eire, rode a bicycle from Dún Laoghaire to Waterford and up to the Shannon 46 years ago.
