View Full Version : Pantry Crasher!

I've been working on a little project to free up some badly needed shelf space in our pantry. I used 1/2" x 6" poplar for the sides and shelves and 1/4" Birch plywood for the back. I ripped the boards to about 3 1/2" and made a 1/4" rabbit in the sides, top and bottom so the back would fit flush. Hah! It even came out square! :)

NOTE: Do you see anything odd in the first picture?

Brew says he has one that is full length. I didn't think about that because the wood I found came in 36" lengths. Later I discovered one that was 48" at a different store. Maybe I should have looked around more, but this one is working great for us.

Ok you did a great job on the shelving but I've looked at the first picture and can't find what I'm missing?? Come-on give it up, is the back pack?

PS.. I love it when I get caught off guard! (makes me start thinking as hard as that is)

Yep, there's no duct tape in that pic.

Good deal Mike, We have one on each door. One for stuff like yours and one for spices. Sure keeps the items handy

What did you use to attach it to that hollow door? That is one of those hollow, interior doors right?

I used some small screws with flat heads. I figure that if they strip out, I'll go to a larger size and maybe use a little caulk or liquid nails to help keep the rack secure. Filled with sandwich bags and such, the rack is not very heavy.

Nice job. Appears to be three extra shelves in the first pic.

You got a round head screw sticking above the table and you use a bunch of wood to raise or lower your work because you have a non adjustable table???
