Having major flashbacks of 'Pimp my Ride' puting screens in peoples bumpers, taillights n' steering wheels when they couldn't fit a popcorn maker. I was waiting for Xzibit to show up and mock your bathroom... Hope you conveted the towel rack into a gun rack, and you have a decent sniper tripod.
John - you are a lunatic. My kind of lunatic. Building custom stuff with weird features is the primary reason I got into woodworking in the first place. Lovely, absurd, Useful project. Two thumbs up!
If you want to see toilets in random places lol just watch LEAW (leave everything and wonder) video on 3 Italian homes for sale in Sicily - The Italians were never short on "washrooms" or random toilets, which seem totally normal to Italians
Linear rail was my exact thought and it would have worked with his angled cut if he had used two layers of dead tree........I do fabrication and welding but for many years did paint and finishing on residential and commercial buildings so I have worked on many cabinets.
Something I just thought of, for the wobbliness and single mounting point for the top half, could you add some structural pieces that are attached to the bottom of that top half and will act as a guide? You could even have them be like drawer mounting brackets so it's smooth and could be attached at both ends.
Do you know what linear rails are? That was my thought, but I do fabrication and welding and my primary trade was painting, staining, and finishing the dead tree carcass that finish carpenters built. He could have maybe hid the rails and carriages inside some wood and used the same bevel on the side to where two pieces of dead tree "wood" meet up, with a second layer to hold the other half of the rail system.
My personal recommendation for anyone you plays video games at John's house...... bring your own controllers or wash your hands REALLY well afterwards!! 😂🤣😂
Loved this. I would add some metal rails to the back to help strengthen everything. Something like drawer slides. help with with alignment, and tipping.
I don't hate it. But man, that beveled joint combined with the wobbly nature of the top scares me in actual use. It has reminded me that motorized mounts exist, which may prove useful for the actual arcade I'm building, so thank you for that. Oh, and hello from Vermont.
I went through the same thought process about not cutting the side pieces. I’m glad you said the same thing, I feel validated. However, this is the absolute LAST thing I’d want in an employee bathroom 😂
One suggestion - When you were putting the hinges on and you were blowing the nails too far out the sides, use a scrap block as a backer and it prevents the nail from blowing out the wood and it makes a little cleaner and easier to fix if it does go through. Great work. love all the fun projects
I don't play games, but update my various lists in google keep for jobs, things I need to do, or shopping lists, or catch up on emails or forums and legs going to sleep is a real world problem. Hurts like hell!
You are using the excuse of "I need to make content, it's how I get paid". To make the coolest thing ever, that no wife would ever approve wasting money on. You're my spirit animal
John this is really awesome, I wish you sold them! You should change the title to secret gaming setup and have that picture of you sitting on the toilet playing because i swear this video was recommended to me at least 7 times today and if that would've been the title and thumbnail, I would've watched it on the first!
You should make a shirt that says “DON’T DO THIS AT HOME KIDS”. I’d love if you built an outside storage shed that you can move around if needed but big enough to put an old ford tractor into. This build is an awesome and AMAZING IDEA. THANK YOU FOR SHARING JOHN. One love to all!
@30:59 -- Jody @InspireWoodcraft showed a couple years ago a tip that still boggles the mind -- he turned his miter gauge *around* in the table saw, so that he could reference the leading end of the material when pushing through the cut. Super handy, I still use it all the time!
I see you have a Benchmade Bugout, John, that's awesome! Love that knife, currently have two of them. You got any other folding knives you like to carry? I collect all sorts of knives in different price ranges. Also, great work on the cabinet!
you need a design like a tree for the back to reduce the amount of stress you have on those 4 screws on the bottom. Maybe it could be attached to the back of the TV.
You should build a coffee table for the living room but with hidden gun rack inside. Or a floating shelf with hidden gun rack inside. Something like that would be cool
It's awesome. You are awesome. I'm just super happy you got it finished in the 3 day time window, because otherwise...well, otherwise... Okay, I'm not sure what would have happened but thank god it got done in time. ;)
Hello John, love watching your videos. I'm just a hobbyist woodworker doing what I can out of my garage. I would love to purchase your shop shade safety glasses but I'm someone who requires reading glasses. will you be coming out with an option of this in the near future?
I would've hinged the top. I would have used the 'Oscar the Grouch' method - the cabinet is the can, the top is the can lid, and the TV is Oscar the Grouch... 🤣🤣🤣
I was half expecting a hidden spot for a bathroom pistol. You never want to be caught on the crapper without a "sh*tter gat" as one of my gun nut friends calls it lol.
I like you. My new favorite you tuber 😊. Stop being so hard on your self. You do beautiful work. Keep going. I'm a creative also. I appreciate what you do. Love you boiiii 😅
I've watched a lot of your videos and we're subscribers. I'm sorry to be a nit picker, but I see in this episode that your 1st Cav flag is being partially covered by another flag. I'm partial to the 1st Cav flag as my dad was in it, and he was also a carpenter. He passed away 5 years ago, and watching your show and seeing glimpses of the 1st Cav flag reminds me of him. BTW, he'd get a kick out of your show! 🙂
22:35 I cringed the whole time you were doing that, while knowing I would have done the exact same thing, while also saying "Don't try this at home"... 😂
FYI, when you only have 2 inch pin nails, you need 1 inch. Lay nail flat and cut to size with cot off wheel. Drown and dirty, quick fix. Nice finished product.
As a father of a 15 month old toddler, my bathroom time is definitely not my own. Her most recent habit is opening and closing the door while I’m in there 😂 (I could lock it, but often alone in the house and want to be able to get to her quick if I need too, also the she would have a melt down).
I will say my wife loved her 32” TV that is viewable from Bath, Shower and Toilet with Door open. My buddies love it too when games are on. They will turn the game on in the master bathroom so it’s all set when the bathroom breaks are needed
i know you were working with what you had but the shallowness of the inner cabinet would absolutely tip anyone off that theres something weird about that cabinet, if it was intended to actually be a secret. end result looks fantastic as always regardless, good work
Want to see more awesome videos?
Check out the NEW JOHN THE BUILDER APP - bit.ly/JM_App
I have to say I got a pair of the shop shades... they are magnificent!!
That is the most John Malecki video you've ever made. Love this sh*t. Nice work John.
Sh*t being the key word as to why this video is being made LMAO . great idea and work !

Look up the backstory on that show. I grew up watching it and never knew how so much of it was fake regarding the car builds.
John - you are a lunatic. My kind of lunatic. Building custom stuff with weird features is the primary reason I got into woodworking in the first place. Lovely, absurd, Useful project. Two thumbs up!
Next on John Malecki:
Hemorrhoids.
My thoughts too!
Came to the comments just for this 😂🔥😳😢
Yes
Is that anything like Ass-teroids?
@@CGT80 For some...
Next project is to have a hidden toilet in the living room.
If you want to see toilets in random places lol just watch LEAW (leave everything and wonder) video on 3 Italian homes for sale in Sicily - The Italians were never short on "washrooms" or random toilets, which seem totally normal to Italians
😂
I'll allow that! lol
He's from Pittsburgh, so he should have a hidden toilet in his basement.
Now you're talking!
I figured you would add vertical side tracks to aid in shelf stability/guiding. Maybe a linear rail or v-wheel setup
Linear rail was my exact thought and it would have worked with his angled cut if he had used two layers of dead tree........I do fabrication and welding but for many years did paint and finishing on residential and commercial buildings so I have worked on many cabinets.
Stain and oil is my favorite part. The beauty of the project comes to life. ❤️

Most of you are watching this in the bathroom.
Absolutely right!!
Noooooo...... You have no proof I was on the toilet when I started this video.... None at all. Brb wiping.
Hell yeah!!!!!!!
100% fact
I feel called out
Loved this. I would add some metal rails to the back to help strengthen everything. Something like drawer slides. help with with alignment, and tipping.
need to install a UV light inside to sanitize the controllers 😂
That’s actually a good call. They say the spray is like 6 feet
A feature you'll only find if you come on down to the Pink Eye Arcade
Came here to say the same thing. Lol. Seems pretty unsanitary to me.
Congrats on 1M followers!! Been here from the beginning and it’s been great watching your channel grow.. keep up the great videos!!
I don't hate it. But man, that beveled joint combined with the wobbly nature of the top scares me in actual use. It has reminded me that motorized mounts exist, which may prove useful for the actual arcade I'm building, so thank you for that. Oh, and hello from Vermont.
I went through the same thought process about not cutting the side pieces. I’m glad you said the same thing, I feel validated. However, this is the absolute LAST thing I’d want in an employee bathroom 😂
"gonna ask me regardless why it took me so long in there" is so real lmao
Love it, that looks like something my brother would have in his bathroom...if he only had indoor plumbing.
One suggestion - When you were putting the hinges on and you were blowing the nails too far out the sides, use a scrap block as a backer and it prevents the nail from blowing out the wood and it makes a little cleaner and easier to fix if it does go through. Great work. love all the fun projects
Nature is neat!
I like the strategy of making the cabinet look way better by making the bathroom look absolutely horrible
"hehehe... don't do that one at home kids"... I feel like this needs to be part of an intro to almost every video here... love it!
Got any fix for your legs going to sleep while you're gaming in the toilet?😄
My grandpa used to have these padded toilet seats
Poop standing up?
Stand up to wipe between rounds
get a foot stool and straighten your legs out every now and then, or use it to raise your knees higher
I don't play games, but update my various lists in google keep for jobs, things I need to do, or shopping lists, or catch up on emails or forums and legs going to sleep is a real world problem. Hurts like hell!
@9:29 - I love the custom branded pocket knife...what brand is it?
You got to love a hidden compartment and it looks great the black with brown kicks plus you looked like a professional for a change lol
John's Shop Shades also help protect you when taking very aggressive #2 while gaming on the toilet haha
Yo! How about a Conveyor Belt Table for your shop? Completely unnecessary but Sooo much fun.
Sounds like something for @unnecessaryinventions
You are using the excuse of "I need to make content, it's how I get paid". To make the coolest thing ever, that no wife would ever approve wasting money on.
You're my spirit animal

I can instantly think of 5 guys I'd give the t-shirt to, lol
Awesome build. Do you plan on continuing a line of safety equipment after ShopShades, i.e hearing and respiratory protection?
Well, there goes thte Employee efficiency rate....
Cool build, and the remodel came out pretty dang good! Well done Sam!
Wonder if drawer slides when it opens would help keep it aligned? Maybe cross supports on the back?
@30:59 -- Jody @InspireWoodcraft showed a couple years ago a tip that still boggles the mind -- he turned his miter gauge *around* in the table saw, so that he could reference the leading end of the material when pushing through the cut. Super handy, I still use it all the time!
I see you have a Benchmade Bugout, John, that's awesome! Love that knife, currently have two of them.
You got any other folding knives you like to carry? I collect all sorts of knives in different price ranges.
Also, great work on the cabinet!
Is there any plan to offer shop shades with prescription lenses in the future?? Only reason I haven’t ordered some. I need prescription glasses.
gun game in the bathroom...gives a whole new meaning to the phrase, "pew, pew, pew"
Pew pew pew while I poo poo poo
21:09 almost took your babymaker out right there.
What suction hold was that to carry the plywood?? Perfect Father’s Day gift!
Nice project. Is the tv lift link in there? I didn’t see it.
Great idea John. Play some Quake or Doom and then when something scares the crap out of you, you're already in the right place. :)
0:54 "if we could get some sort of gun..." Gotta shoot the the shit while shooting the shit 😂😂😂
That you missed the obvious "YOU LIKE THAT!" Kirk Cousins cut is criminal. 🤣 18:25
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 usually don't spend that much time in there....Boss there cracks the whip lol
24:36 time for two cabinets, I bet you thought no one would notice
Just a thought; could you have added a larger plasma cut plate to the underside of the motorised shelf for stability to spread the load a bit better?
Awesome!!! Congratulations on 1,00,000 subs!!!
Now that's just funny as hell, I don't care who you are!! Very cool build John
you need a design like a tree for the back to reduce the amount of stress you have on those 4 screws on the bottom. Maybe it could be attached to the back of the TV.
John! You have just up,d the man game! I’m so proud of you. This is a dream come true.❤
You should build a coffee table for the living room but with hidden gun rack inside. Or a floating shelf with hidden gun rack inside. Something like that would be cool
I just need a quiet space to pound off, this sounds like a great solution!
Hit that 1 million sub mark. Someone’s getting a workshop!
Amazing how it still lifted with all of that weight on it
Hey John & team, love watching these! Future project ideas: elaborate treehouse or awesome kids bedroom furniture/ fort? Keep it squirrely
Best woodworker and advice giver still to this day💯💯💯💯💯helped me through A Lot of hard times💯💯💯💯💯
It's awesome. You are awesome. I'm just super happy you got it finished in the 3 day time window, because otherwise...well, otherwise... Okay, I'm not sure what would have happened but thank god it got done in time. ;)
did you make sure befoe cutting that you had roof clearance?
Love the cabinet! But, Dude, peel & stick tiles?
One hell of build love it
Just subscribed. Love what I have seen so far.
Hello John, love watching your videos. I'm just a hobbyist woodworker doing what I can out of my garage. I would love to purchase your shop shade safety glasses but I'm someone who requires reading glasses. will you be coming out with an option of this in the near future?
Keep an eye out in the future, might be able to help you out 🤫
I would've hinged the top. I would have used the 'Oscar the Grouch' method - the cabinet is the can, the top is the can lid, and the TV is Oscar the Grouch... 🤣🤣🤣
YOU DID IT AGAIN, THAT IS REAL COOL
I was half expecting a hidden spot for a bathroom pistol. You never want to be caught on the crapper without a "sh*tter gat" as one of my gun nut friends calls it lol.
I like you. My new favorite you tuber 😊. Stop being so hard on your self. You do beautiful work. Keep going. I'm a creative also. I appreciate what you do. Love you boiiii 😅

Ridiculous? Yes. But entertaining as hell always! Thanks for the cool videos as usual John.
10 out of 10 on the commitment to your thumbnail.
FYI, when you only have 2 inch pin nails, you need 1 inch. Lay nail flat and cut to size with cot off wheel. Drown and dirty, quick fix. Nice finished product.
Do they make the screws for the pocket holes too?
Very nice, great job
FYI, the screws you were looking for are on the bottom of the TV. They're were you mount the stand legs that came with the TV.
Congrats on a million subs and thanks for making me one in a million! :)
Not my boss walking into my office just as soon as THATS A THICK ASS BOY plays. lol. This build screams squrilley malecki. I love it
Love that
Who needs a hidden tv in their bathroom when we all have phones to watch instead
Dude! Watching you on that table saw, how do you still have all your fingers?!😮
I love how you're basically getting paid to slowly remodel your house and shop with the most badassery you can think of. Well played good sir!
The king👑 of youtube is back

You guys should attempt something from a show that's near and dear to childhood me, "Home Improvement"!
so i love this cause i am working on something like this based on the burbon bar. it will be like a little hidden recording studio setup
...and I loved the bourbon bar build.
What kind of tiles did you use for the floor?
Make a wood working table with as many tech gadgets in it as you can.
I will say my wife loved her 32” TV that is viewable from Bath, Shower and Toilet with Door open. My buddies love it too when games are on. They will turn the game on in the master bathroom so it’s all set when the bathroom breaks are needed
Do shop shades come in a percription option?
Not yet! 🤫
I wish I had a bathroom that warranted this. That's awesome
You take a lot of chances and you’re not so much with safety at times. I just found your channel yesterday. Glad you’re online. 🎉
Your ideas are so narley!!!! You have an outlet that low in the bathroom?
You'll know where your girls are! Watching Bluey in the bathroom!!
Is that a black woodpeckers square you are using in this video?
Estoy a un pelo de hacer lo mismo en mi baño 😂 saludos desde Argentina
A padded toilet seat is a must!
Thanks for the new trick! My biscuit joiner is now a router as well.
Occasionally. Maybe.
25:00 crunch crunch grind...
Nice office bathroom. Did you move it to your house?
All great scenarios start with "Here's what I'm thinking...". Oh, and you can't leave out "I got this..."
could have attached triangular pieces on the sides of the tv slide to secure the top more. I'm worried those little screws will strip out.
i know you were working with what you had but the shallowness of the inner cabinet would absolutely tip anyone off that theres something weird about that cabinet, if it was intended to actually be a secret. end result looks fantastic as always regardless, good work
