Unique under bed storage solution

| 0 comments |
WWMM Under bed storage systemWhen researching storage and organization projects, I was reminded how much space is available under a bed. We have several under-bed storage boxes that contain things we rarely use. Maybe once or twice a year.
I thought would be nice to utilize under bed space for long-term storage, but also be able to store and access more frequently used items without having to drag out the entire box.
My storage unit has a large back section with a removable lid for storing less-used, maybe seasonal items. The front of this cabinet has a drawer allowing easy access to things you need to get to more often.
Most under bed storage boxes have wheels on them, but I dont believe they are necessary. I attached furniture glides to the underside of this unit, allowing it to slide easily on wood floors or carpet.
Plans:Before using the dimensions in these plans, be sure to carefully measure the space beneath the bed you are going to use. I designed mine to fit under my king-sized bed, but the frames of these vary greatly. Also make sure to account for areas of the bedframe that extend lower than the mattress.

How bout those championship games yesterday? Good games: I really thought San Francisco could pull it off right up to a fumbled punt return at the worst possible time ever.
In Australia, cricket is very popular. I dont know much about the game, other than it employs the use of a flat bat. And when I see a cricket bat, I think of Shawn of the Dead.
Brenton Rawlings describes cricket this way: "A sport that most Australians will play in the backyard pretending to be good at it with only a select few who make a career from turning professional."Heres a set of cricket "Stump Shelves" he made.
And look: a picture frame with Brentons family pictured. Its made of Oak with a Jarrah inlay.
Finally, he sent over a picture of an awesome looking go-cart he made with his nephew for Christmas. I so want to ride this!

John Steele works in the tech wing of a local school and tells me that my iWood video is compulsory viewing for all new wood working classes. Uh-oh! 
John describes his gorgeous turnings: 
"The motif is a gum leaf - inlaid into some random eucalypt hardwood. Commonly called Victorian Ash (gum trees from Victoria). The inlay is redgum burl. 
The last one American Ash- Fraxinus americana, and an Australian redgum burl shaped again as a gum leaf.  This could be seen as a symbol of the connection between our two countries (or it could be that I was given a few offcuts of American ash.)"
