I use a metal bin to organise the medium-length bits of stock in my shop. These are all the odds and ends that aren't long enough to make it onto the stock rack. It was an old vegetable oil can in a previous life. I filled it with paper mailing tubes to try give it some organisation. I recently added some wheels to make it mobile (something that is increasingly necessary in the continually diminishing amount of shop space).
A piece of scrap laminate was cut to size for the base. A circular channel was cut using a router and the Circle Cutting Jig.
Castor wheels were screwed to the bottom using chipboard screws.
Four nuts are strategically screwed into place with a countersunk chipboard screw around the periphery of the bin to reduce the likelihood of it popping out of its channel.
