    Thank you for making this video! This was so helpful for me to learn from as I renovated my kitchen. I built all my own drawer boxes and installed them with these Blum slides using this video as a guide and I could not be happier.

    I just installed the undermount drawer slides for all the kitchen base cabinets I made. I have double the number of cabinets than the previous kitchen build I did but installing the slides with your technique took me a fraction of the time. Less (in fact zero) swearing and perfect first go.
    Amazing. Thank you so much.

    I've watched this series of BCTEW numerous times. Awesome instruction. You sir, are a gifted teacher. I am grateful for all you do. You have given me inspiration to want to rebuild my kitchen by myself. I am learning skills that, had I listened to my grandpa when I was a kid I would have learned this trade as a teenager. Well, better late than never. Jason, thank you sir. These videos are invaluable to me. Cheers !

    Major major thanks! I built my kitchen cabinets and used side-mount cause I thought undermount were too tedious and difficult. I'm now doing a 8 foot bathroom vanity and I clicked on your video to see if you had an easier way to do side-mount. After I watched the video I was completely impressed. Followed your method to the "T" and now have six perfect undermount soft-slide drawers.

    Sure do appreciate this video. Love woodworking and am largely self-taught. Currently remodeling my own kitchen (building face frame, shaker style cabinets as per your videos) and I can't tell you how much you've saved me in costly mistakes (that I most certainly would have made). Hope I get the chance to buy you a whisky some day, you've really helped! Cheers from Tigard!

    This was a perfect video. I just spent hours being frustrated with the side mount soft-close drawer glides. Spent hundreds of dollars only to have the various slides fail over and over. trying different brands. When he just threw the slides in the video, I busted a gut. It made my day!!!! Now I will look at the under mounts.

    Thanks for this tutorial! I'm making new drawers for my kitchen cabinets, and while not *quite* as simple as what you're doing here (think cabinets from the 60s), your clear and complete instruction was a godsend to making this project accessible. Thanks for taking the time to share 🙂

      Tutor I’m wondering if you’ve seen my channel. It’s new but I’m trying to grow it. I figured after spending a career building custom cabinetry, I’d start showing people how to do it nicely. Too many folks out there just don’t know what they are doing. Let me know what you think. I may be too boring cause I don’t have this theatrical quality but you’ll learn a lot. I guarantee that.

    I've had the chance to use this table a couple of times now. It's fun to whip out in front of people:) I can see what people are talking about when they say the legs are delicate, but they're design to support a "mostly" vertical load, not be torqued from the side or pushed back into place. If you just let the table open or close on it's own and don't force anything, it works great ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxyFZUPFEey-PuqsPMxqaykBhgA1LWxFHh Once it's set up, it's pretty solid. My only gripe would probably be related to the clamps provided. They're not the highest quality. They do the job, so no big deal, but they could be better. All in all, pretty cool gadget.

  • @mr.e8432
    @mr.e8432 2 роки тому +7

    Hey Jason, enjoying your videos. I'm a little late to the party on this one, but an important point to note on the Blum undermount slides is that all the adjustment features are set bottomed out from the factory. It's important to zero out the adjustment features on the back of the slides and the height adjustment on the draw clips before you install your drawer fronts. That way you'll have adjustability in both directions (up and down, instead of just up) if you need it in the future. It may not be a big deal on overlay fronts but on insets, if you ever need to lower the front a smidge you won't be able too.

    • @jbratt

    • @hxllow_x
      @hxllow_x Рік тому

      What do you mean by zero out? Are those instructions in the package with the slides?

    • @mr.e8432
      @mr.e8432 Рік тому

      @mickiefox1854 the drawer height adjustment on the drawer clips comes set all the way down. Install your drawer slides. Then make sure they are level and the adjustments are all set to neutral. (Depending on what model draw slide you get, some of them are adjustable) Then, before you put your drawer in, make sure the clips that mount to the drawer are zeroed out. The clips allow you to adjust the draw up or down. From the factory, they come set all the way at the bottom. If you don't move the clips up a bit, before you install your drawer front, you will not be able to adjust the drawer down if it's installed a bit high.

In my kitchen remodel I'll copy you except add 2 dowels on each side of the drawer face because all my life I've been cursed with the faces pulling apart. I've also been cursed with bottoms falling out from heavy loads so I've always made 3/8" bottoms.

    @diversify210 4 роки тому +18

    I actually find side mounted drawer slides much faster to mount. Bottom mount drawer slides are nice and typically allow for a little more weight, but they are going to cost you about twice as much as side mount ball bearing slides, if not more. They also require a bit more work than side mounted drawer slides and typically require a bit more planning if in the build of a cabinet if you are going to be using them. So I wouldn't suggest you ditch the side mount ball bearing slides. Just choose the slides that but suit your application.
