For me and my “organizationally-challenged” brothers and sisters, garages and workshops are zones of chaos, where storage deficiencies and surplus “stuff” become life partners. The more tools and toys we acquire, the more we need places to put them. Tools without homes are destined to either never be found again or to forever be in the way; there is no middle ground. Every surface teeters above the jaws of clutter. But today we pop a breath mint into those foul jaws by building a shop storage drawer cabinet into the bottom of a popular worktable.

How to Build a Bridge – Starring Diablo Wood and Metal Circular Saw Blades
This post is sponsored by The Home Depot. We have had a tremendous amount of rain over the past year, and one of the primary drainages splits our property in a spot that we have to cross frequently. Rather than walking around the drainage we decided to figure out how to build a bridge to prevent having to walk around or through the stream bed. In an attempt to keep the cost low we decided to utilize some of the steel we found on the property. Coincidentally, Home Depot just sent us the Diablo 7 ¼” Steel Demon and the Diablo 7 ¼” Wood and Metal Circular Saw Blades to test out. The Diablo blades couldn’t have arrived at a better time given the wood and metal cutting involved in this build project. Join us a we walk through how to build a bridge and as we put these Diablo blades through their paces in the process. Read More
