You can never have too many clamps — but deciding on the right ones can be confusing. So we’ve taken a closer look at some of the clamps that get used most in the Woodsmith shop.
Storage Project
18 / Modular Storage Shelving
Perfect for a garage, workshop, or any place you need extra storage, these modular shelves are quickly assembled with knock-down hardware. And as your storage needs grow, you can build and add on as many units as you want.

Don’t worry about cutting corners with this project. We’ll guide you through all the angles, from cutting the bevels for the case, to building the mitered-frame door, and even the final assembly.
