I recently made a bunch of kitchen cabinets, and I have found that my unwillingness to throw away scraps was quickly making my shop unreasonable. I found a plan in one of the magazines for a "cut off catch all". Theirs was a bit too large for my shop, and I wanted a mobile one, since I find that I make my cut offs in different locations for different projects. This is my version.
Construction is a combo of loose mortise and tenon for the frame and panel back, pocket screws, and good ole drywall screws. Went together fairly easily over the weekend with scraps I had around the shop. Only the bottom and sides were really a large amount of wood.
Dimensions are 2' tall by 3' wide. And it's already made a HUGE difference to my shop. I have wall mounted wood storage for 2' and larger stuff, but that was getting full, and there are always bits that are shorter laying around.
