Build A Portable, Fold-Out Toolkit And Workbench For All Your Gear

Build A Portable, Fold-Out Toolkit And Workbench For All Your Gear

If space is at a premium in your house, or you like carrying everything you need with you at all times, this DIY toolkit-plus-workstation does double duty. It holds your tools in a (mostly) portable box and folds out wherever and whenever you need to work.

What makes this one unique is that it folds out into a full workstation that you can use anywhere, and it puts your tools within arm’s reach while you work. Of course, you’ll need more than just the tools in the kit to make the kit, so be warned — this one will require a little time in your garage workshop or over at the hardware store getting the cuts you’ll need to put all of this together.

When you’re finished, the end product is a portable toolkit (it even has a handle!) that can carry a wealth of tools just about anywhere, securely, and it even includes storage drawers for loose objects. Just fold down the front and sides of the container to create a wooden work surface and get to work. Hit the link below to see the full walkthrough.
