Need a good way to archive your old how-to magazines?
Build these simple wood storage bins and have all your important reference materials at your fingertips instead of lost in a towering pile.
By The Family Handyman
Finally got the time to build that project in The Family Handyman from three years ago?
Great…if you can find the right issue!
Build these bins and stock them with an orderly archive, and you’ll have instant access to years of projects and plans.
You can build four bins from one 60cm x 121cm sheet of 0.6cm. plywood and two 182cm-long 1x4s
Step 1: Mark the cuts
Cut the 0.6cm plywood into eight 29cm x 28cm pieces.
Use a 18 litre bucket to trace a graceful S-curve from the 29cm-high corner across the plywood to a 15cm mark on the opposite side.
Simply establish a smooth curve.

Step 2: Cut the curves
Stack pairs so the best sides face each other and tape all the sheets together flush at the edges. “Gang cut” the curve with a jigsaw or a band saw.
Step 3: Nail the pieces
Saw pine boards into 15cm, 24cm and 29cm lengths.
Drill 2.5cm-diameter finger pulls in the 15cm pieces, then nail the frames together.
Nail the sides to the frames with 2.5cm finish nails, sand as needed and apply a finish.
