hello guys and welcome back so on this video im going to be creating a toolbox out of some
scrap wood that i have lying around from a couple of small jobs around the house i didn't
want to throw the sheets of ply away so i sort of through i may aswell use it up and
make a plastering tool box kind of sick and tired of my tools getting wee knicks out of
them im sure a lot of you plasterers will agree with me that a wee knick in a skimming
trowel is a pain in the ass so i decided to make something up , i just threw it up together
quickly, its a bit rough but i threw it up together quickly thinking that this will protect
them store them a bit neater and also when on jobs on site i will be able to look and
see if anything is missing very easily and replace it so this tool box will suit any
plasterer it will also suit tilers and possibly some brick layers and any diyers that just
want to have some plastering tools and keep them neat around the house or shed so guys
yea i sort of challenge you to knock one up yourselves and if you do please take a picture
of it with your tools and all in it whatever way you have it set up and tweet it to me
tweet it to my twitter my twitter is on my main page on my you tube page so go and follow
me there tweet it to me also i have a facebook for mac plastering one if you want to share
it on there or make a video yourself making it and drop it in the comments box on this
video i would love to see what you guys come up with and we could all take ideas from each
other and maybe make some even better than what i create here so yea that would be a
good idea guys if any of yas out there have some wood left about and wanna have a go at
at making this so guys if you do want to go ahead and make one the tools you are going
tools needed is a tape measurer a hand saw a pencil a straight edge would be very handy , drill
with star head also with a small wood drill bit to make the holes so your screws don't
split down into the timber a jig saw you done need a jigsaw but a jigsaw would make it handier
but you could make all the cuts with a saw also a circular saw would make the job easier
as well even easier than a jigsaw does but i didn't have one so i used what i had a hole
cutter for your drill bit if you chose to go it that way it might be ideal just for
making the job faster as well also clamps would be handy i didn't have clamps but i did have
a friend to help it steady so also the materials you will need will be sheet timber i cant
really say how much as it may vary you may not want a tool box as big as mine some batons
would be hand for the side as im placing in now or slating lath would work just aswell
and youll need screws for fixing it together obviously and wood glue if you choose to glue
it but i didnt see the point in that so i used 1.5 inch screws and a couple of i think
they were 5mm screws for a wee front strap that goes on later so thats the measurements
of screws but again i'm not sure what type of time you're going to have lying about or
you might buy a sheet for it so buy your screws to suit guys
