I bought a bundle of fifteen 1x2s for $12. There are some pretty twisted, gnarly looking boards in the bundle. My dad taught me how to selectively cut with the twists and kinks in mind so the project turns out in the end. I've only 1 wonky spot I am not happy about. I used 3/4 of the bundle of wood with only a dozen of so 6 inch scraps left over.
It's built with tools my wife has gotten me over the last couple of birthdays. I love tools.
The shoe rack is designed to fit behind the door. I’ve notched it to fit around the baseboard. It’s extended across the heat register to dry gloves and is rounded so I don’t bang my lag on the corner.
The inner space worked out to be perfectly square. Not sure how that happened, but I will pretend it’s planned.
The door opens flush against the table.
The lower shelf is angled so big shoes can fit toes towards the back.
Gloves, hats, shoes, & boots all fit on the little table. I think I like it.
I made a shoe rack for behind the front door http://t.co/jvax0vD4RH
Tools … I have tools to fix tools, 2nd order tool lovers unite!
Like the consideration for the vent placement!
+Jeff Bond Maintenance tools for the tools that are used to fix the tools? 3rd order tool lovers unite?
+Mad Tinker Me too. Recollections of hats and shoes and gloves piled up on the in-floor heat register when I grew up told me this was a requirement. Really pleased with how well it turned out in regards to the vent.
haha +Mike Creuzer … at the very end of the line of tools, you will always find two things … Baling Wire & Duct Tape 😉
Bailing wire… I love the stuff! Its unfortunate that the younger crowd won't know it's fine attributes. Zip ties have supplanted bailing wire.
Baling wire. I vaguely remember the stuff when mowing the hay out in the field, but in Arkansas is indispensable for making sure your muffler is trussed up just right.
