Ultimate Drywall Toolbox

My drywall tools have always been banging around in buckets and I wanted a neat way to store everything together. I saw MacPlastering on YouTube make a toolbox and I got inspired.

I used 3/4" Poplar plywood I had left over but I probably should have used 1/2" to keep it lighter.

The magnetic knife racks and drawers came from Ikea. The plastic tubs are lighter and easier than any drawers I could have made.

I have been using the tool box for a few months since filming this video and its working out great.

I hope I can give someone some ideas and inspiration to make their own.

If I met a drywall contractor that organized and CLEAN I would hire him instantly.
The last four contractors we hired for household repairs and renovations were mostly OK, but nowhere near this level of efficiency. Well done Sir. You should always be a first-call contractor.

Well done and clever. I made one similiar 10 years ago. I dismantled a bucket organizer and used it for the side storage. I only say that because it saved me a few pounds. I also designed mine to be flush on top so a plank or something could be set on it for a short step.
Love seeing people do what you did. No matter where you buy a production storage box it will never meet your needs like the one you designed.
Good work.

I don't give a damn how heavy it is, it was nicely built...and a damn good idea! Thanks for sharing, Brother. Nice job!

Amazing craftsmanship! Thank you for sharing & God Bless!

Awsome. When you are organized. You perform your work so much better. I think the cordless tools on side is best used as a pit stop durring a job... But then put in a contractor bag for job to job. Well done.

That drywall box is a awesome idea I really need something like that for my mud pan and knives

[PrettyTubs]

your box is so more awesome than mine. I made mine in 15 minutes and I was so proud of it til I saw this

I would of loved downloadable plans but i guess im gonna take a screen shot the plans at the beginning of the video

This is honestly perfect, like stupid perfect.

[onesource]

Yep! This build will be hard to beat.

You could lighten it massively by drilling holes (like a paulk workbench) and you would barely affect the strength.

Yes nice tool caddy if it carries all you need and easy access to individual tools. Bags and buckets are out. Good job. I think my next box will be a Gemini version and better crafted as it is a tad bulky and a little heavy at the moment.

brilliant again!! please make more stuff

[MaxwellVanDutch]

Really cool how you designed your tool box to fit the tools you had. Nice work!

[jamesosullivan]

Very nice! Quality work my friend.
I also made a trowel box, not quite as fancy but useable all the same.

[dekeros-recreationalwoodwo]

That is a great design! Well done - excellent build and video!

So, after five years, how has it held up?
