Mobile storage trolley with shelves

Took the $39 shelving unit, a set of 4 x 75mm castor wheels, a sheet of 6mm MDF & turned it into a trolley for storage purposes.

The other half is exactly the same but I added doors & a latch to lock it up.

Re: Shelving Trolley

Hello @WesBaker51

 

Thank you so much for sharing your shelving trolley project. What an ingenious way of making a sturdy trolley. Using cabinet drawer handles as push and pull handles is fantastic.

 

How did you fix the wheels to the bottom? Did you use a nut and bolt assembly or did you just screw them in with standard timber screws? Did you use a piece of timber support for the shelves? I know these are a lot of questions, but I'm sure our members would appreciate any extra information you can share about your build.   

 

We look forward to seeing your next creation.

 

Eric

Re: Shelving Trolley

WOW @WesBaker51 

 

What an awesome re-furb..  And ever so useful, as well as cost effective.   Would love to see a picture of the other one with the doors...  Just to see how you hung the doors, etc.

 

Thanks for sharing..

This is very clever @WesBaker51!

 

I agree with @Old-gal24 you should definitely post photos with the doors. 

 

Great job.
