GetUpAndDIY is live! Turn Scrap Wood into a Smart Screw Organizer (LIVE)

Stop digging through that "black hole" of a junk drawer! 🛠️ In this video, I’m building a custom wooden drawer organizer specifically designed to tame a chaotic mess of screws, nails, and small hardware. Whether you're a beginner woodworker or just looking for a weekend organization project, this DIY build is the perfect way to use up scrap wood and get your shop or kitchen back in order.

Why Build This?

Custom Fit: Unlike store-bought plastic bins, this wooden divider is built to the exact dimensions you need. Modular Design: We’ll use a simple dado or grid system so you can adjust compartment sizes to fit your needs. It's also a french cleat design so you can basically hang it anywhere you need. Budget Friendly: Built entirely from 1/4" plywood or scrap strips, costing less than $20.

Wood: 1/4" & 3/4" Paint Grade Plywood Glue: Titebond II Wood Glue for strong bonds.

Tools: Table saw, Miter Saw, Band Saw, and Drill Finish: Latex Paint
