    Im stunned. I am a 23 year old homeowner for about 2 years now (yes, we exist), and I am planning my kitchen remodel. 21 Linear Ft. of basic cabinets price around 12K. Twelve Thousand. Ridiculous. You have made it so easy to build strong cabinets and my budget could not be happier. Hoping to start soon :)

    the author does like to from scratch, shaping and trimming wood from large blocks into fine finished products. ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxD-QRFQz730FJEh4f9BYSf-nkIMIC9hL_ as another reviewer mentioned, most projects require a lot of high-dollar equipment that most of us dont have the room or budget for. But, knowing how to do these things, even if we wont be able to practice the full stack project, is still great.

    This is a very refreshing instructional teaching video. The first thing I noticed was at the beginning I wasn’t assaulted by a lug head who thinks he’s the cat’s meow and playing annoying loud heavy metal music. When I see these over the top videos no matter how much I may be interested in the subject matter I immediately switch off. It’s just to much noise in an already noisy world. I envy this man’s orderly climate controlled shop and all the tools of the trade. I’m sure he worked for it all. He seems a nice guy and I bet he’s a good family man. I saved this video and I’m sure to go back to it many times. Thanks !

    I am a moderately experienced woodworker. This was one of the best videos I have seen on basic cabinet making. There were so many little details that I took note of (I've watched it end to end 3 times) and so much to learn by simply paying attention (I love your little assembly "I beams"). I especially like the saw set up for the "stub tenon" doors. Your delivery is straight forward and economic leaving out few details. I was a little curious why you didn't use more available jigs, like Kreg's shelf pin jig or hinge drilling jig but I assumed you have been doing this long enough that those seem unnecessary. Thank you for this. And I look forward to seeing more from you.

  • @rds333
    @rds333 Рік тому +12

    One problem I have with this that most people will miss until it's too late. I would eliminate the center stile. It is not needed. The door will not require something for it to stop on. The top and bottom rails will provide that. The center stile will only create problems. Here's why: you will have a very tough time putting in a shelf, which was not shown. And if you want to use 2 shelves, well good luck. I never build a cabinet with a center stile unless there is a partition behind it. Using a partition will create independent shelves on both the left and right side of the cabinet. If you need a wider space, eliminate the center stile, and then put in your shelf.

    Wish I had seen this video about 12 years ago when I built my kitchen cabinets. But I went the "extra mile" and rather than use plywood, I cut and milled the trees, dried the lumber then built the cabinets. l used butternut for the doors and red oak for the face frames. The cabinet body was melamine coated MDF with 1/4" oak plywood on the exposed surfaces. It was a real learning experience.

      @James McPhearson, why would you ruin a beautifully sounding project with MDF? IMO, that’s rates at the top of the list for worst inventions. It’s definitely not suited for sink cabinets. I’m in the process of cleaning up that mess right now. One dishwasher mishap and your cabinets are destined for roach food and garbage. Woth all that hard “Extra Mile” work you put into it, it’s hard to believe you then mixed-in MDF. Just keep it dry.

In addition to being a heck of a lot easier than pocket holes, this also eliminates the need for clamping on the box. A small piece of pegboard makes a great hole template for shelf pins.

    Fine job, young man !!! If you will let an old man give you two pointers.
    Pocket screws are a nice deal, but you face frames will be several times stronger if you also glue them. No matter what anyone tells you end grain glues just fine.
    The last one, and it's a big one. No matter how clear the lumber, sharp the blade, or shallow the rabbet, NEVER run your hand over that blade !! If you hit a knot, or for any other reason that board comes apart, it a bad deal ! I've only had it happen once in over 50 years, but it's not pretty, or comfortable.

    I've been building custom cabinets for 35 years.

Always remember to come up to the height that applies to your joiner planer shaper etc.. that helps take the play out of the gears that raise and lower your cutters...

    Excellent video, well paced with appropriate narration.
    My main comment would be about the kick-space - I know what the actual setback is for but the rest of the area under the cabinet seems like wasted space. I prefer to make some trays or similar which will slide under the cabinet proper, for the storage of things that are not needed on an everyday basis.

    Thanks, this helped a lot. I just wish there was one more detail. At 36:45, you have the wood pieces for the door already cut to size. What size? There's something about the hinge type that factors into what door size to make. I'm still trying to figure it out.

    • @lorihill968
      @lorihill968 3 роки тому

      Exactly my question as well. What is the gap between the drawers and the doors and between the doors? The online written tutorial omits this as well. www.woodmagazine.com/make-cabinets-the-easy-way

      I generally go 1 1/2 for rails and 2 inches for style.. You can use what looks best.
      Or go down to the home center and measure theirs.

    A good jigsaw and the Extra-Clean jigsaw blades leave such a good edge that it does not matter which side you cut from, no tear out in my case.

    I had a business that specialized in free standing cabinets and kitchen islands. I never built the cabinet first. I always figured out the size and layout of the face frame, built that first, then built the cabinet behind it. That method worked very well for me.

    • @scottslotterbeck3796

      I use dowels. I loathe pocket screws. Cheap furniture is made with pocket screws. Buy a doweling jig and you're good

    Even though his video was 90 minutes long, it kept my attention from start to finish. Need to create these exact cabinets for my garage, only I will need about 10 uppers and 6 lowers, 4 uppers will go on a side wall next to the overhead door, or maybe 2 extra tall ones.
    Very nice video, looking forward to future projects from your channel, just subscribed today!
