Take control of your various rags and towels and be intentional about where they live! In this video I go through the process of building a relatively simple wall mounted cabinet to hold all of my most common shop towels and rags for cleanup. You'd be surprised how nice it is to have these at an arms reach whenever you need them.
The first step is to build the basic frame of the cabinet. I'm using 1/2" plywood that I had laying around the shop. Once the frame is complete, the internal dividers and front were added. I then finished it off by building a glove box mount that will be attached to the side of the cabinet.
Next step was finishing which was done inside my new HomeRight pop-up paint booth. This thing is awesome! I used my airless paint sprayer to do the dirty work and I was done painting in about 6 minutes.
Last step was to add some acrylic to the the "sight glasses", mount my 3D printed shop towel holder, and add the top with a piano hinge.
Once I filled up the various compartments with my most common clean up rags and towels, it was ready to use! No more messy hands trying to open drawers and doors for me.

Looking good! Can you add a link to the paper roll you have hanging on the side to protect your table top? The ones i'm finding won't stop glue moisture and stain/paint from bleeding through. Thanks!

The author does like to from scratch, kzread.infoUgkxbnOKZBE4evMO5V2vroHeCjq6d_MV6wJO shaping and trimming wood from large blocks into fine finished products. As another reviewer mentioned, most projects require a lot of high-dollar equipment that most of us don’t have the room or budget for. But, knowing how to do these things, even if we won’t be able to practise the full stack project, is still great.
Who could argue with way faster and no need for dust collection as you said? 🤷 Badass karate chop my friend! 😂 😂 😂
I bought the plans and built it. I am impressed with the finished product! Thank you.

love your jobs.. i think your jigsaw skills are amazing!!
Nice project and first time viewer. I would leave the slots open to push rags down when they get hung up.

That’s a great suggestion, I’ve gotten that one a couple times!
Shop idea for extension cords......ready GO!
I liked the project and the video. Since you asked for feedback....In my shop, I use gloves and paper towels, but also wax paper (not enough rags for three boxes). My cloth rags are uniform, and used for applying or wiping stain (so I don't need three separate boxes). When I use paper towels, (as you said) my hands are already covered in water, paint or stain. So grabbing the paper roll to rip off one is a problem. With wax paper, I tear off small pieces, to keep glue off the clamps and workbench. So my ideal rack would have: - Two or more rolls, but restrained (slightly) to make them easier to tear off just one. Maybe add an edge to cut off the wax paper piece - One (or no) box for cloth towels - Keep the glove box as you didThe 3-D printed parts are (sort of) cheating, as few of us have these. Routing that "L"-shaped channel for the roll bar(s) would be fair, though.
This is one of those projects that if you’re gonna build one, might as well build two at the same time!
Both my guy and I have separate shops. His shop is tractors, painting tractors or trucks, tractor repair/rebuild, combine work and occasionally a warm space for me to work on wood projects, furniture or vintage camper restoration. My shop is mostly camping, project building, home improvement, gardening and wood projects. We both have the need for paper towels, rags and gloves! I am a re-user so I have a crap ton of odd lumber. I tend not to buy plans as I would have to have all the same type of material. I like to see ideas and wing it. I LOVE French cleats too!!! Nothing should be hung on a wall without one! Thanks for the video and ideas! NOTE: what I would buy is the paper towel dowel holders and spacers, but I will make them out of wood..
You always do awesome work I got excellent ideas from you maybe call it a shop despencer for all your towels and paper towel holders
45 degree ramp blocks. Optional, but BRILLIANT. Just awesome.
This is my first video for Shop Nation. Great project and I will be back!
That’s one helluva nice shop. Mine is a closet next to that! Love it.
Another nice compact usable storage unit.
Good job Shop nation and I'm now subscribed!
-Very practical. Just what I need to make for the garage shop!
I enjoyed you shop projects very much,thanks for your efforts
Just added this to my "To Do" list for my shop! Great idea, thank you.
Great videos brother. Like the karate chop!
Great idea, thanks. I use all the same towels, but use both plain white paper and blue shop towels. I'll have to figure out a way to incorporate a second roll holder into it. - Chris
Awesome video. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Making this for sure! Good use of scraps.
Enjoyed this one! Probably going to do this and add a spot on the other side for a pump bottle of orange hand cleaner.

Now that I've seen your rag cabinet it's time I up grade mine, NICE JOB THERE BUDDY..

Nice build I'll be using this myself thank you!
Always a big problem I never considered fully. Thanks for sharing your idea. Nice video as always.
Entertaining and a nice project
Love this simple and super useful shop add on!!! Love your channel!!!
Market it as the "SRD cabinet!" Works for me. Thank you for the great ideas for shop makeup and storage!
Great idea!
Very nice and clean
Great idea, I will be building on of these!
Well done!
Great video. Will definitely be building this soon
Very nice, what a great storage idea.
Buen trabajo. Gracias.
Barry Roberts comment below has inspired me to consider a small first aid cabinet for band-aids and antiseptic ....
Simple idea. Well executed. Nicely done!
Great job.
Worthwhile, yet modest project,...almost an afterthought...bet it gets a lot of use...thx
Congratulations on your subscribers
Awesome cabinet. Much fancier than my setup. My wife has a cat so I get cat litter buckets. Hinged lid and rectangular. I cut a 4" circle in the lower face of the bucket to pull the rags out. I stick the bucket on a shelf or hang from the handle depending on where I need it.

Extremely nice.....They say......necessity is the mother of all invention!!! That is an extremely useful product.....Thank you for making a video on it, and sharing it....Well done!!
Yesssss love this. Very awesome
Great video as always! Will be printing the paper towel holder. Will be using it at my locksmith shop (trying to achieve shop greatness there also). Will be building this as I am constantly looking for rags when working in my shop. Thanks Travis and have a great day!
Thanks for sharing Travis, my next "to do" at the weekend, good job... Regards from Aguascalientes México!! Keep in trucking!!!!
Very Usefull Build indeed ! Nice One
Excellent idea, thanks. I need to do something very similar out in my shop, always needing towels, rags, gloves, etc. This is a great shop must have, otherwise they all get tossed around the shop and never where they were when you last saw them. That cabinet can easily be modified to accommodate different items too, excellent.
Really neat idea and build. You hit it out of the park.
Nice job Trav
Love this! I will be copying this build for my Mountain Garage!
Very cool
Looks good!
Great video as always!
Great job sir
What a GREAT idea!
Good job, we love your work down here in south ga
Great video as always..
Shout out from San Marcos TX. Love your channel. I even bought the same Delta saw just because of your review. Keep up the great work.
Super cool bro. I learn a lot of simple things that go a long way. Thanks pal keep up the SHOP GREATNESS!
GOOD JOB 👍
Great video! can't wait to add this to the shop
I have been thinking about doing something with all my rags lately, I cut a hole in a coffee can that was ok ok but cheesy. I have found the answer thanks to you, building one this week. Thanks for a great video. New to the channel,on board brother.✌️
Very nice!
Going to make one (or more). Thank you. Good video.
Nicely done man. For sure making this for my new shop.
Oh Yeah Mark Forged All The Way!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well done, been waiting for your new releases!
Perfect... my next project right here!
That is very cool
Just keep your videos and narranting keep coming. Really enjoying watching your stuff. And so much greet tools in the states.... and cheap (in relation to here in Denmark)
Very cool idea. I think I might make one of those next rainy day I get :-) One piece of advice that someone gave me once that made me happy was to slow down the router if it's burning your piece. Less heat that way.
Great video and yes i am one of those people who has a roll of paper, and a box of gloves sitting there catching dust, along with my box of plasters (band aid) as well. Thanks for the idea, i have seen similar but this one is spot on. Barry (ENG)
In efforts to organize my shop (which is a freakin’ disaster), I have made clamp storage and cordless tool storage. This will be a perfect next project in making my work space workable!
Great build. Actually a very helpful spot to keep dome disposables. Thinking about buying the Prusa
The nitrile gloves box slot is a great idea. I will adapt this for my shop
It's a shop rag caddy! Definitely need to build me one of dem!
Nice build, I need to add this to my list.
Nice! I am definitely going to do something similar!
Liked everything except the paper towel holder. I can make everything except the 3D printing! Keeping things light and Humorous is a great touch as well... Keep up the good work.

Damn. I was just screwing around with rags and thinking "these all need to go in the same spot". Also, I like the woodpecker "addition". I have a "woodpecker wall" on my french cleats. I'll have it up once I finally get everything going.
Awesome
Sweet! 👍
Nice video, thanks for sharing.
Great design!!!

Nothing wrong with having standards for you garage space
Like your DIY storage items I built the same roller holder for construction paper used when doing glue ups for segmented builds roll off what you need and I do as you did just reload paper back onto the roll use it again as needed 👍
