    I have been following this channel for about a year. I really enjoy the stuff that you do, Brad. I know I will never have the $$, or the capability to justify a shop like yours, but I learn things every time I watch one of your videos anyway.
    THIS is my favorite video of yours I have ever seen. You solved some everyday problems that the average homeowner faces, and you did it with inexpensive tools and easy-to-learn techniques. PLEASE MAKE MORE LIKE THIS! I think if you branch into more like this one you will pick up a whole new set of followers!

    I have a band saw, 2 piece sander 5 and belt sanding, Table saw, two of the yellow boxes set up for different projects, drill press and many clamp to hold items that might move when I am cutting or drilling. My wife purchased all of this so the honey do list was not a burden but so much fun. She used many of them when I was at work.

    I liked this video as you used hand tools. Too many videos on youtube have tips on building stuff, where the guy retires to his enormous garage workshop to use a table circular saw, pedestal drill, table router, lathe, electric hammers, nuclear screwdrivers, and gawd knows what else! With lots of people living in flats or small apartments, this is so much more helpful. Thanks and keep up the good work

    Hi! We live in an apartment and have been hit hard due to the pandemic. But this projects are great. I don't have space or budget for big/expensive tools. But I'm getting started with this as soon as I gather all the tools. Please, make a series of projects with this and other basic tools. Love the video!

  • @robertanderson2611
    @robertanderson2611 4 роки тому +5

    I appreciate you being honest about the learning you did on the project. That's really how know-how develops. These pros who put out videos where never a thumb gets hammered make it seem like there is no way to figure things out as you go and improve over time. Cheers!

  • @thefishwillbearmed7391
    @thefishwillbearmed7391 2 роки тому

    Nice simple instructions. Clear visuals. But the best thing about this? Hand tools! So many YT woodworking videos rely heavily on pro power tools it's impossible for us every day folks. What a joy to see a simple but clever idea rendered by hand. Perfection. 👍

    1st video I've seen from this channel and I'm hooked. I'm not a DIY-er but I do enjoy watching those who are. I'm attracted to this because there's no superfluous chatter, just clear, concise instructions. And if you're ever in the UK I have a long list of chores/tasks which need completing,lol.

    Hey Brad. Your sponsor for this video solved a huge headache for my wife. She works at a group home for the disabled and has a very odd AC filter size she could NOT find. I said "Hey I think I can solve that problem" Visited your channel, checked them out and BOOM! No more problem. I love your channel and your projects and thanks for the freebies every now and then. Your running a great channel!

    I'm working through the lid racks now. Bard isn't kidding when he says your mileage may vary for the spacers for the lids. I needed 6 to 7 for my largest land id, a glass lid for a cast iron pan. Other lids used 4 to 5 blocks. The distance between the rail and the panel is the depth of a block, so I'm dropping one for each rack. I also have smaller doors than Brad's cabinet, and I can only get 1 lid per rack.
    The tools I'm using. 150-grit sandpaper glued to a scrap board. Chissles, the same miter box and saw, and the same pilot hole bit.

  • @benjaminrauschenbach6084
    @benjaminrauschenbach6084 5 років тому

    Sleeper video here. Awesome ideas. Material choice was the genius idea here. No rip cuts. That’s where the need for more expensive tools becomes necessary. I hope more people check this video out. Looking forward to more creative ideas with standard dimensional lumber sizes. Add a decent chop saw to the low budget tool kit and you’ll start feeling like Norm Abrum.

    Speaking as a nerd older woman believe me, having that first simple wood project work out great sends you to the tool section in Home Depot every visit! My first purchase when my ex never finished anything he tore apart was a yellow miter box, not snazzy like yours, and a back cut saw. Love that saw. Like the projects but personally i never get the ideas of peoples need to do something with pot lids. I keep them with the pots they belong to? Turn upside down on the pot. Met my current partner at age 57, never too late. He has power tools!

    We have a CNC and all the other tools to build most anything from wood in our commercial shop. But this video is great, it shows you don’t need a $100,000
    CNC to make something nice for the home. I just built 4 chairs and a table in my garage with simple home tools,, it can be done. Well done video voice over was perfect.

  • @user-zp5vt1tu6b
    @user-zp5vt1tu6b 5 років тому +1

    Very nice tips. We also have a storage area cabinet above the built in oven. It was 20" deep so stuff would get lost in the back. I installed open front drawer and sliders inside of that area. Now you can pull the whole thing out like a standard drawer so you can see what's actually inside and reach items towards the back.

  • @suemount6042
    @suemount6042 2 роки тому +2

    Loved the drawer divider but I would have changed the drawer slides to full extension ones so the extra three inches could be used too. My kitchen is 9ft long 6ft wide teeny so I need every little inch of storage. Love your projects

    Awesome projects! 3 mods I'd make.
    Project 1: put something between the rack and the door so the lids don't scratch the doors over time.
    Project 2. Same idea as 1, except cut material of choice to shape and tape to bottom of each compartment. Saves from gouging and also acts as grips.
    Project 3. Put a little backstop lip on each level to avoid playing dominos when pulling a container off the back.
    Great project ideas, I'm going to do all of these

    good job using basic tools. Many of these UA-cam woodworkers tend to lose focus of the majority of their viewers when they get more subscribers and better tools for the shop. I tune in once in awhile to your channel to see what you have going on. I am subscribed. Thanks again for doing this.

    Minor critique, many of those joints could have been glue only. But probably would have taken much longer waiting for one joint to dry before starting the next. I like the simple draw divider, buying one never is the perfect fit but that one is!

    • @Fixthisbuildthat
      @Fixthisbuildthat  5 років тому

      The spice rack for sure could be just glue. The drawer divider not a good idea. End grain to long grain is very very weak

      After giving this a go, my OCD wants to try again with power tools. I picked up a miter box and saw, clamps, etc, and the cuts were most definitely not 90º. The cheap miter box just isn't precise enough for 90º cuts. Maybe it's me, but I'm unsure how I could have attacked it any better.
      Were I not as OCD, this project is fine. But I want to next try ripping the wood down to 2" (I think 2.5" is just too tall), and also a miter for really square cuts, as well as having a go at dados for the wood joints. Naturally this means $$$$, but I have a few projects in mind where these will all come in handy.
      I grew up with my mother hiring a contractor/cabinet maker who makes almost perfect everything. Straight lines, flush connections, smooth transitions, glass-like finishing work, and I guess that hit my DNA. Because these cuts not being 90º has kinda rocked my world. ;)

  • @rhkips
    @rhkips 5 років тому

    Living in a small studio apartment, I can't be using power tools all the time to make my cuts. I'm quite familiar with that miter box you've got there, and I struggled with that same tear-out issue. I've found that using only the weight of the saw for the last bit of the cut significantly reduces tear-out. Sure, it takes a bit longer, but it makes for a cleaner cut, and saves some finish time later on. :)
