😅 I second this and agree, I learned about straight edge clamps not too long ago. Bought one and haven't even used it.

I made the beginner cart design and added french cleats to the sides so it can be a project cart that can have interchangeable tools on the sides depending on just what the project is. I take the required stools off my french cleated walls and they slip right on the sides. It can go onto the deck or out of the garage with me.

Never got to see Sam's finished...the stadium tool holder concept sounded intriguing.

I really like Sam’s cart for the stadium seating approach. I have a couple of suggestions for the next video in this series. Bedside table, storage cabinet, cutting board

I’m a mixed media artist and I feel the second design would get the most use from me. Loved this video.

All of Sam's projects have an awesome 27 degree angle in there somewhere. Jordan did a real rock and roll Stage Dive. But this time John you win.

I love how you include the boys and challenge them both and include them in the show. This is KZread and all, but this is the work of a great boss.

Nice job guys. For a shop cart that is going to get some abuse, I would go with simplicity and cheapness. I have to give my nod to Sam. Thanks for sharing.

I appreciate, being a novice myself, yins showing 3 different levels of builds. It allows me to aspire to something and learn a hell of a lot.

I almost launched coffee out of my sinuses when the "Just the Tip" segment came on. Some grade A Assclownery!! Really like the 3 levels vids and I think the "stadium" cart is good in theory and could be useful but the big fella's cart was the best IMO. That assembly top is something I could use.

Great carts all 3, especially like the “polished” cart by John..

What I enjoy most in your videos is your energy! Cheers John! 💪💪

I absolutely love these 3 builds, they're amazing and your new guys get some new skills!

I am new to the carpentry game. Just starting up as a hobby... I have see a lot of KZread vids, but this guy has VISION & CREATIVITY on the fly!!! Would love to take a class and be a student in his shop. His emotion and wittiness is great and matches his knowledge.

Love these videos! The Pro shop cart was awesome, but for speed and utily I think the Beginner wins out for me. That sliding top!

Alfred, 18 years experience. It's a shop cart so you make it out of doug fir off cuts that are mostly twisted so you don't even bother with fancy joinery. Besides, since you're a professional carpenter and not a youtuber, the slab in your shop is so uneven it doesn't matter how straight it is, you're going to have to shim it every time you use it. Fasten with something from your box of mismatched screws. Do you have a box of random hardware? I do, maybe some casters in there? If not there's a bar next to the Ace Hardware. Take three hours to go to the Ace Hardware and buy four casters. One of these will not swivel because you went to the bar first (rookie mistake). Go back to Ace hardware, exchange for a swivel caster. Make sure you attach them with decking screws that use all different kind of drivers so you can curse yourself sometime in the future when you need to steal a caster for something else.

YES!!! I just rewatched the other 3 Level videos and need a shop cart! The perfect video!!

Dudes! You totally hit the spot with this video, I am a brand new woodworker who's been, "binging" your video's trying to learn and Bam! Here's a, "where to start" video answering just that. I now know what I'm building next. Now I know it should be a cart. I also know what cart I will be, "planning to build" down the road once I'm better! Thank you.

The PRO cart is amazing and, with some tweaks, could be slightly altered to use in a kitchen/outdoor entertainment area!

Love all three! great ideas in all.

I LOVE the projects you work on! It would be SOOOO AWESOME to learn some new skills from you in your shop and build something with you!

I'm going to be difficult and say...Take the top from Jordan's, marry it to John's cart, and use Sam's stadium idea for outboard storage.

Definitely johns for me, as the bench holes tipped it for me as well as the walnut screw dowels, love it

Great trick with maple plugs and inserts on tenons, looks so much fancier. :)

This is one of my favourite videos. John for the win . Sam and Jordan are stepping it up though

I'm so glad to hear someone say that they like to practise joinery techniques on shop furniture! Once I clean up enough space in my garage to actually have room to build and use shop furniture of my own, I intend to do the same. Every design idea for potential shop furniture I've doodled in my notebook has used different joins so that I could learn how to do them better. So hopefully when I eventually get to using them on a project that I don't want to screw up, I'll have made most of my mistakes on something I don't mind won't be perfect. Of course, having said that, John's use of those joins in his cart is still way beyond my skill level at this stage 😂

I really enjoy watching these. I would love to see three levels of worktables.

yes the 3-level's video is amazing. I get to weigh my options on how much effort i want to put into this type of stuff lol keep it up!!

all the carts turned out great for their intended purposes. All of them have different shop organization ideologies in mind too which is kinda cool.

I really like Sams idea of the tiered tool holders. Might try that myself

Great video and great Ideas. John - yours looks too pretty to use! I think I would do a hybrid of John and Sams! Jordan - great job thinking outside the box - I would be nervous that my cart would tip over when I open the lid up. Great work guys!

I liked the first one - in fact will be building three or so for a 2 level miter saw setup, and a table saw outfeed table/cart. Thanks for the great examples, and some day I may have time and energy to make ones like the third version. I will be looking at the Adam Savage cart as. as a third [project. Great, fast versions of the builds!

jordan - level 1 sam - level 2 john -over 9000 !!!!!

I would have to say Sam's is the best. I have two carts that Adam Savage made. One is for general hand tools, and another is for my wood working stuff (planes, saws, glue, sandpaper). I use both every day. I am a believer of "drawers are where tools go to die" I don't remember who said it (maybe Adam). Keep up the good work, love the videos. Go Bears

All of the builds are great in different ways but John, yours is truly functional artwork!

Hi John, all three carts looked well made and functional, but yours really did have the wow factor xxx

Right on time man, I’m trying to design a shop cart for my use. Might have to buy a plan!

John another great video thank you thank you so much the cards came out awesome . appreciate it my friend from Doug

Each one was great good jobs guys could do with all 3

They're all good, but I like Jordan's the best.

This is personal thoughts. A true pro/expert should only use exactly same tool as beginner to make pro final product. Thanks for filming.

I love these. Just an idea but maybe use beginner/intermediate/pro tools at each level.

I like the Adam savage way of thinking since I do tinkering in wood, electronics, repairs., small engine and RC cars

Absolutely love these 3 level videos. Hope you keep these up 🙂

Enjoyed the series, keep them coming.

I see John's self-deprecating humor is rubbing off on Jordan. :D

Realistically, you should show them side by side at the end for an easy comparison view. As others have said, hard to pick a clear winner as all three bring unique elements to the table…

Love your three versions beginner ,intermediate and pro

Sam's wins for me with functionality and ease of modifications.

beginner using tools people can't generally afford as a hobbyist or just starting out. With that said, great series.

3 ways videos are awesome! Thanks guys!

I still need to get a set of those JKM dovetail jigs!! Will have to do that tonight. Awsome video as always!

Commenting to help this video go straight to the moon

Good builds. Love the portrait of Nic Offerman/Ron Swanson.

Great Series , gave me lots of ideas for my next Shop Carts

Swap the DIY with the pro carts. As a pro, I use lots of carts to move material through the shop. With a few exceptions, they allow like you DIY cart. I don't have the time a hobbyist has to make that fancy pro cart. Nor do I have a need for it. I need a quick, dirty, cheap, strong rolling cart. Love the video. Never underestimate the awesomeness of a fleet of carts!

A pro tip that I'd like to share in "no loose cloths or dangly pull cords around power tools....... especially table saws". Jordan's pull cords, for his hood, made me wince when he was on the table saw. I know there's a whole perspective issue and there might have been quite a big gap, but next time he might have to lean over a bit further and ............! I have even seen this happen and I was so glad that my friend didn't have nots on the end of his toggle and that it wasn't stitched in anywhere. He did get pulled towards the blade but thankfully the cord pulled all of the way through his hood before it was to late. It took him a long time to get back into his shop, but we have all learnt from his mistake and are hopefully a lot safer for it 👍
