Toolcart with printed joint connectors

thingiverse

The goal of this project was to see how much I could simplify the construction of something like this by leveraging modular connectors (the joints). You could assemble this using only a screwdriver and a drill (for pilot holes). You could have all of the wood cut for you (I intentionally had this done at home depot for some of the wood), and the connectors make up for any sloppy cuts. I did cheat a few times by gluing the drawer and mitering the angled pieces. Connectors fit 1x2 wood. To assemble lower frame, you need: 2x bottom_a_with_wheel_hole 2x bottom_a_with_wheel_hole.flipped 2x bottom_a 2x bottom_a.flipped To assemble upper frame: 1x bottom_a 1x bottom_a.flipped 1x bottom_b_angle_with_wheel_hole 1x bottom_b_angle_with_wheel_hole.flipped 1x top_b_angle 1x top_b_angle.flipped Sets of 2x slidebracket, 2x slidebracket.flipped can be used to attach slides to bottom frame. Sets of 1x anglebracket, 1x anglebracket.flipped can be used to attach platforms to top frame. You can make the wood any length you'd like, but the dimensions I used are: Lower frame: 8x 18" for horizontal pieces 4x 24" for vertical pieces Upper frame: 4x 18" 2x 22" 2x 27.5" (These pieces need to be cut at an angle. It's a 3-4-5 triangle so the angles are: 53.13 and 36.87 degrees)
