I Transformed 2 Metal Cabinets into a Storage Masterpiece

I've been wanting one of these cabinets for YEARS, and I finally found TWO! I wanted to give them an overhaul though, and add some mobile function as well as a platform on top for a large power tool. I CAN'T BELIEVE HOW MUCH FIT IN THESE!
I cleaned, de-stickered, sanded, and repainted these metal cabinets and made a rolling platform with locking casters to easily move this around if I wanted to. I've been struggling trying to figure out where to put my planer, as right now, it's a bit in the way. So that will live on top of this while not in use.

Just a note, as there seems to be a bit of confusion regarding the labels- I did mention right in the video that I DO still need to add labels, though I’m not sure what I want that to look like just yet. But yes, labels need to be and will be added. 😊 Additionally- when I was referring to possibly having the laser cut out walnut veneer for the drawer faces, I didn’t mean just the label area. My original plan was to face the drawers with the walnut veneer. The whole face, not just the little label area. Apologies if I didn’t explain that well enough, there seems to be a bit of miscommunication there. I’ve since decided I want to leave them as is, painted, and just add my labels as I intended to. ❤

[@Dre-in-PA]

Paper labels of a color that matches the apothecary style unit. Only because some wild floral would be too hard to read 😮.

[@jodidavis6595]

Now I get it..I mean I thought I got it but you clarified it. I think it’s grand the way it is. You are soooo talented. Angie

[@hanreality.7266]

Leave it without the walnut, but maybe colour code the labels. X

[@joshuapuyear6818]

I understood your thought. And if I remember correctly you did say that the walnut was for the drawer faces.

[@paulabodine5317]

You had a great idea! I love the color you chose and your choice to leave the drawer fronts as is. This will come in super handy 😉

[@r.k.2823]

Leave it as it is because it is beautiful and needs nothing else. I know you must be so happy to have this new piece in your shop be functional and visually appealing at the same time.

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

Thank you so much! 😊

[@dorothyyoung8231]

You could think about making labels from various colors of paper. That would be an interesting design element AND help with quickly finding the parts you want!

[@giselesmith5508]

I agree with other commentors; I like the colors just as is. FYI, whenever I have a need to use either Goo Gone or Goof Off, I've found that heat from a hairdryer can often soften the adhesive enough to pull it off easily; slow and steady is the key. You might have to use a little scraper to lift a corner, but then use the dryer underneath as you pull.

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

Thank you so much! 😊

Regular Ole olive oil is great for getting stickers off. I add some to a little spray bottle and scratch up the stickers then use the oil wait a couple seconds to a minute or so and then I use a old plastic card with a paper towel wrapped around and scrap over the area and then wipe up the rest with remainder of the paper towels and it usually is all gone never had a problem

[@maureenhargrave3568]

Oh my goodness, do these cabinets bring back memories. When working in a medical school and research back in the day before Internet, these cabinets were used to house copies of manuscripts that had been published. If the manuscript was excepted for publication, then we would order copies of that article. Request would arrive from around the world for a copy that article that would get mailed out. Each drawer held a different manuscript. I think we had four of these cabinets. They were always gray, label holder riveted. I would give anything to have these to house my craft projects now.

[@katsleggsful]

I like the monochrome fronts. Like Bob Ross would say, I think this fits in the "Happy Accidents" category. It is like a modern spin on an old tired filing cabinet. I love it! Great job as usual Angie! Oh, btw, Jay from "Flipping Drawers" is doing another MCM challenge next month! I hope to see you in there, along with a new YT creator, "MCM Redo."

This is so cool! For the adhesive removal, there's a product called Rapid Remover which I used, along with a heat gun and a razor blade, to remove elderly, peeling, and deeply hideous vinyl stripes and swooshes from a big RV. It worked really well, when Goof Off and all my other solvents did nothing. It didn't damage the RV wall, either.

You lucky dog. I would love a cabinet like this for my sewing room. I had a pattern cabinet for many years which was ideal for all things sewing until my husband kidnapped it for the garage. Now, I'm in the process of getting rid of stuff, so there's no need anymore. You've made the cabinet look professional and very handsome. You're a girl after my own heart being a very organized person. Love the look you achieved. Can't wait to see what you do next.

Quick tip on adhesive removal - use WD40 and an old toothbrush. Also, as crazy as it sounds, creamy peanut butter works. Smear it on. Let it soak for a few minutes and wipe off with paper towel. If the adhesive is stubborn you can rub the peanut butter with a paper towel then wipe it off.

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

Yes WD40 works, but I had to paint this and I didn't want the surface to be any slicker than it already was.

WD40 works well on adhesives. Also a janitorial product called Resolves-All. It's sold as a gum remover but works on so many other things too. I love how humble you always are. I know i am not the only one, Angie. I recently watched another "flipper" literally destroy an old treadle sewing machine cabinet/base. Nothing like you at all. And so unrepentedly rude about her opinion when multiple commenters decried her horrible use of color. She did no prep work, although she lied and said she did off-camera (you could tell because the same dirty nasty spots were there throughout the entire video!). There are so many others who do such terrible work and have such bad attitudes. You are so sweet, even when you don't have to be. And the work you do, is always in the service of the item. Love you!

As always, a thorough approach creates a fantastic result. I'd make a chart on paper and put it inside a protective sleeve. You could adhere it to the side of the cabinet so you know what's in each drawer or you could keep it somewhere else in the shop to access it when you need it. The fronts stay clean, but you aren't spending valuable time searching drawers for what you need. An excellent addition to the shop, esp with the repurposed top and bottom!

Love the cabinet and love your channel. Idea for the labels: heavy black or brown cardstock spray painted the same brown that you used on the cabinet and the words handwritten with gold or bronze metallic markers. Also, keep an extra can or two of the spray paint for touch ups; that color may not be available again in five years.

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

I do still have half a can, but may get one more to keep on hand. I'm sure it'll get marked at some point, lol.

I'm loving the monochrome look, so i'd save the walnut for another project. Great job as always, and what a space saver! I love the clever idea of putting the cabinets back to back and setting them on a spinnable platform as well. Being a big fan of metal cabinets and lockers myself, i'm so glad of the inspiration.

Black on black looks clean and simple. I like it!

Handles the same colour looks great

What a beautiful addition to your workshop. I think crisp black and white labels would look good on the cabinet.

Being from Scotland myself, complete with a family castle in western Scotland, of course I know what a sporran is. I actually live in western Canada with my Canadian husband but the rest of my family still lives in Scotland with a few in England and Wales as well. Excellent job on the cabinets but then you always do a wonderful job. There’s nothing like having your work room organized and everything in its place.

That is wonderful! A castle?? Wow!!

Love the way this turned out. A place for everything and everything in its place is so satisfying. 💜

I absolutely love the way this turned out! My husband and I need to do something similar. His work was getting rid of a lot of old things, and we ended up with two somewhat similar filing cabinets. Of course, the two cabinets are completely different from each other -- but we each chose one of them, and will be filling them! His for his shop, mine in my craft room. Love the idea of putting them on casters.

That's wonderful! Thank you so much for watching! 😊
