Low-Cost Utility Cart

This versatile cart combines storage space and a handy worksurface in a compact, roll-around package.

What grabs your attention with this cart is the painted finish. But there’s a lot more going on under the hood, so to speak. For starters, the cart adds a much-needed, mobile worksurface to any shop. On top of that, the on-board storage keeps things close at hand. It features two drawers, an open storage bay with an adjustable shelf, and a closed compartment with two more shelves. Finally, despite the hotrod appearance, this cart has a thrifty heart. The entire case is made from low-cost MDF. All in all, I think you’ll find it’s a project that works as well as it looks.
