  • Modern vanities are garbage. Here is a great alternative: turn a vintage or antique dresser into a beautiful bathroom vanity. I try to provide enough details so you can do this on your own. Part 2 coming shortly.

    That is really cool! I will have to get my son to watch this. He is wanting to get into doing more woodworking projects, with hopefully building a small business out of it.

    This is perfect.
    How big did you make the hole in the back?

    Quality! Any more tips on how to locate where to cut the drawers for each row?

    • @savingmiller

      Definitely make sure all the plumbing is in its final position and the cabinet is in position. If it's off even a little, you'll be cutting and trimming after the drawers are done. Which is not good!

    I am going to do this with an oak dresser. Your video is excellent and I think I can make it happen. Where did you get that beautiful sink? Thank you!

      I think the sink was a lucky find at a garage sale. It says it was made in Mexico. I would like to know where to find more as well!

    I am going to do this. I was planning on replacing the whole top, but I see you did not do that. Are you not concerned about water stains or warping of the wood over time?

    • @savingmiller

      We actually planned on putting stone on top. However, it would have been very expensive. We actually have 2 wood tops like this. We put 6 coats or so of marine grade poly on it. It's held up very well for 2 years. Obviously, we do take some care to wipe off any water, but it does protect the wood quite well.

    • @savingmiller
      @savingmiller  3 роки тому +1

      Yes, that is a hole saw. They ve in various sizes and are typically stock at any local hardware store.
