In this video, I’ll show you how to build a compact lumber storage cart made from a single sheet of plywood. It has a small footprint of 24 x 28 so it won’t take up too much room in the workshop. With 6 vertical cubbies for wood storage plus 2 horizontal slots that can be fitted with plastic bins or used as is.

BONUS! At the end of the video I build an extra side compartment that can be made with the remaining plywood offcuts. Mounted with pocket screws for easy removal (or addition) when needs change in the future. Great add-on for storing offcuts from sheet goods. Instructions for this are included in the plans. Link plans available below!
