Workshop Is the place for the creative process. Clutter inspires no one, so problem correct organization of space in this place is very relevant. Everything should be in its place, even the smallest parts and fasteners. The order will help not only focus on the goal, but also significantly save time, because rummaging in search of what you need self-tapping screw can be very long. The easiest and most logical way out is to place all the little things in small containers by size and type. But finding the right container can take a long time. How can this procedure be improved? It is most convenient to use pull-out shelves, and even better - shelves that rotate along their axis. But such a device is usually very expensive, and few people decide on such a purchase for an ordinary workshop. In the meantime, you can make a shelf with your own hands, as the author of the YouTube channel did. Workshop Diy. And for this he needed... an ordinary bicycle wheel.

The wheel and its preparation
Finding a bicycle wheel is not a problem. Everyone who owns such vehicles usually has a stockpile. Someone changes the damaged parts, and someone experiments with the diameter. Even if you don't have a wheel in stock, you can easily find it on any spare parts in the nearest market.
All this will have to be fixed.
In addition to the wheel, you will need:
- plastic hose;
- a piece of a sewer pipe;
- remnants of OSB or plywood;
- square metal pipe;
- self-tapping screws.
Prepare from the tools:
- gas burner;
- drill;
- screwdriver;
- grinder;
- welding machine;
- glue gun.
Base and fixture for rotating shelf
According to the author's idea, the shelf will be mounted on the wall. But first you need to assemble the basic structure.
After warming up, the plastic will become more pliable and take the shape you need.
Make a wash, stepping back from the end of the pipe a distance equal to the radius of the wheel.
Then you need to make several holes - one on the long end of the wheel holder and a couple on the short one to fix it in the wall.
This completes the main assembly, now it remains to decide with containers for storing small items.
What to make containers for fasteners
You can use the same ready-made containers, but if you have time and a piece of sewer pipe, you don't have to look for something in the store.
Try to follow the markings exactly.
Alternatively, use a glue gun.
Final assembly of the revolving shelf
It remains only to completely assemble the finished product and fix it on the wall.
It is better to make it tall, it will be convenient to store pencils and markers here for marking.
It is not necessary to somehow additionally fix them, with a calm turn of the shelf, they are already quite stable in their places.
Now you will find them literally in a matter of seconds.
The shelf is not only comfortable, it is also very original, takes up little space and has great functionality. You will love this practical design.
