Trying to force that maple through the cut is the most relatable thing I haven't seen anywhere else 😂
Hahaha funny stuff huh? I've done that like 100 times or more, and didn't even know about the shim thing for a while
I had a badly kilned piece of walnut, I ended up ripping it by hand rather than risk it pinching. It was only a short rip, I wouldn't want to do that with a longer board.
I've got a bandsaw but it's still in pieces in my kitchen after moving house.
I love that the plan isn’t always thought completely out. Because things change CONSTANTLY. Wood behaves weirdly sometimes. Measurements can be a hair off. The customer can call halfway through and ask for a change. Hell…you could just feel off for a few hours and something changes because of that. Having a set step by step, screw by brad nail plan can lead to more failure and disappointment than being able to compensate and pivot in places to finish the project.
Yes, that's exactly it! Figuring things out as you go is part of the art. Thanks so much!
@DeuceMoose88 - I've made entire pieces of furniture based on only one dimension. It's fun, and in a way, easier to do... relative measurements based on the work!
I've done something like that too
Beautiful cabinet. I really enjoy watching your videos. The narration and quality of the videos are so enjoyable, and your work is really incredible. It's also pretty cool that these are actual commissioned pieces rather than being made just for the video. I look forward to more of your videos.
I really appreciate that! I think it's cool that there are real customers behind these projects too. Thanks for watching!
Beautiful piece Cory👏🏻👏🏻! Appreciate the uh-oh’s as well…we all experience them and glad no one was injured!
Thank you! We are certainly glad as well!
Glad to see your sub count growing. Great work as per usual. Happy New Year man.
Thank you Nikola. You are a great supporter and patron. I appreciate you a lot!
Your project turned out great!! Just my two cents worth: when you glue up the fluted columns, use packing tape across the joint, add glue and then fold the joint together. I have used this method on everything from small boxes to large heavy columns for kitchen islands as well as wraparound grain for fireplace mantels. If you put just the right amount of tension on the tape you will get a very tight joint and won’t have to fill the divots left by the spring clamps. Love your channel!!
Thats a great idea. I completely forgot about that trick when doing it! Thanks for watching!
Bonjour, Très très belle réalisation, le tout dans un cadre et une ambiance zen... Bravo
I'm glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching and commenting
8:35 - The dominos I've used both had an issue where the clear plastic guide was not centered, so when I'd put two pieces together they would not be flush side-to-side.
I ended up widening the screw holes and sanding off one side of that clear plastic piece so I could adjust it and that gave me perfect alignment and fixed the problem. I used the scribed marks on the bottom of the tool to line it up.
Quite a glaring issue that a $1200 tool shouldn't have.
Ya, I'm surprised yours needed that much fiddling to get it right. I had to do some altering to my kapex to get the fence straight too. It's annoying when it happens but 99% of the time everything is dead on
@@FortressFineWoodworks I’d hope it’s rare for the price point.
I have a Kapex that I can use (local Woodcraft) but I try to avoid it. Even with a great blade it just gives me so much tear out and an almost rounded cut, but my Rigid at home that I squared up gives me near-perfect 90° super clean cuts up 16” long.
I just want to tell people to save their money and take the time to really set up their tools.
Thanks for the response! I really appreciate all of your insight and work you put into your videos.
Thank you for your experiences too!
Talent drips of this man!! You are blessed my friend. Merry Christmas, Happy New Year to you and your loved ones. We’re excited to see what you will bring us in 2024.
That's extremely kind, thank you. I know you're a long time viewer and I always appreciate what you have to say
I get the same issue with the domino not creating flush connections. One thing that seems to help is to very slowly enter the wood so that the bit isn't getting "pushed" by the wood and creating a slightly different path. The other is to be very careful about the downward pressure your pressing hand is making. Sometimes its difficult to press the domino inward without pushing slightly downward (or even upward) which might inevitably adjust the height at which it enters the wood.
Actually, I was thinking the same thing. And that's why Cody gets more inconsistent joints because he hasn't gotten that feel yet. Thanks!
Another great build! I have been patiently waiting for a video from you lol! I too make those little mistakes like not pre-drilling, thinking it's not necessary, until I realize it is necessary lol! And I love my sawstop but I am so afraid of the accidental trigger. All the best to you, Cody and those near and dear to you in 2024. Cheers!
Dude, you're awesome! Thanks for being patient!
An accidental trigger may happen one day but it will be worth knowing that it works!
Finally! Really enjoy your work and upload episodes
Sorry this one took a while. The holidays slowed things down. Thanks for watching!
Fine woodworkers are another breed, very impressive, truly. I've recently undertook my first stain grade small piece of furniture and it really puts me in check. That said, the burnished corners of the miters with wood glue and screw driver technique is great - it's why I love watching other maker's videos. Are those drywall screws though?
That's awesome that you are enjoying it!
Yes, drywall screws are rated for plenty of force for what we need. If it was a walnut table build though, no drywall screws
People who don't do woodworking don't have a concept of how long it takes or how hard it is. The amount of prep, measuring, and accurate cuts to get several different boards to line up once assembled can be immense. What you made in this video is amazing.
I made a desk organizer for my wife recently, not complicated at all. 40 inches long 3in tall and 12 inch deep. She wanted it quick so i pieced it together from wood I had on hand. She added a 2nd tier about halfway through which wasn't a problem, I hadn't
started staining yet. All in it was a weeks worth of work working on it 1 weekend and a few nights during the week. Very short project. But still required a lot of planning and cutting and layout to get it to look good.
Whenever I price stuff and people look at me like I'm crazy I tell them a project like that will require a table saw, miter saw, paner, glue up time, and sealing time. Everything that goes into doing that isn't free.
It's a lot of things! I can't tell you know what's up! Thanks for watching!
Just recently found your channel and already love your channel and your work. Keep up the great work bro. Thank you for sharing what you do.
I'm really glad you like it. Viewers like you are what make this channel possible. Thanks!
@@FortressFineWoodworks I lack creativity to create, but watching your work is already starting to get those creative ideas going in my head. For that, I can’t thank you enough. Have a great day and an even better 2024
That makes this whole thing worth it for me. I love being inspired by others too. So glad you are getting those juices flowing
Stunning cabinet! Nice video.
Thanks so much. I appreciate you taking the time to comment!
Outstanding work and content creation! Is it just me, or does anyone else sometimes feel a sense of inadequacy when watching things be made by people who are this talented? Also, I often suffer from "analysis paralysis" and find myself mired in it. Tooling also has an impact on me, lack of it I mean. So glad I discovered your channel and subscribed. I'm in a single car garage that shares the household laundry. But, I love wood working.
I actually feel that way when I'm watching other content creators as well. I'm sure it's natural for most people. You have amazing honesty, and feel free to watch some of my older content when I was also in a small Garage shop. Thanks for watching!
Happy I found your channel . You were made for this I,m jealous of your voice it's top notch just like your skills . Happy New Year.
That's a great compliment. Thank you! I appreciate you watching and happy new year!
Amazing work + well edited...new sub👍🏽
Good! I'm glad you liked it. Thanks for the sub!
Beautiful piece
Thank you very much!
The domino thing… it’s not just you. I went through the same headache. It’s unfortunate for such an expensive tool. Seneca makes a domino plate that fixes this issue - almost never comes off my domino. Hope that helps.
Yep, that plate has no play which would help. Thanks!
The only thing I don't like about this video is that the customer wanted it painted. I am all about the natural wood look. Good on you Cody!
Ya, I agree. Everyone has their preferences
I really enjoyed watching this build! Thanks for sharing!
Is there a reason you don't flip the guard down on the saw? If you've set the rip fence, do you need to see the blade?
I appreciate your thoughts. It's just a product of filming. I want you, the viewer, to see. I have all guards in place when not filming
@@FortressFineWoodworksthat's good to know! Thanks for replying!
Thank You!
Increíble trabajo, te felicito 🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱
Thank you for watching!
Amazing as usual!!
Thank you Dan! Hope you are well
Very classy piece, excellent work! Just curious since you mentioned protecting soft eyeballs several times, any reason you don't wear glasses at the TS? Not hating, just curious.
I actually just ordered prescription safety glasses for that reason
17:20. Good time to use the blue tape trick when closing that long miter? Or, does that propose a problem when you can't see the spine of the miter?
Yes that would actually work quite well if you dont have miter spring clamps.
Good job my friend. Looks awesome!
Thank you! I hope everything is going well in your neck of the woods
@@FortressFineWoodworks Not too bad 😁
Heck yah! Happy new year!
Such talent and skill 👏👏
Thanks for watching!
So.... do t know if anyone noticed... but.... when the brass mesh hit the blade, it retracted. And the brass had a bit more than than a knick. THATS YOU’RE FINGERS PEOPLE.
The only reason it took the blade a second to recognize it is because the aluminum has an anodized coating. So it wasn't grounding against the cast iron very well. It would act faster on a finger
Norm always loved a good dado and they make assembly for one person much easier. How do you like that sawstop slider contemplating that or the Harvey. By the love the work.
That's so true! I really like the sawstop sliding crosscut sled. It's easy to take off and put back on. It can get out of square from time to time though
Just beautiful!
Thanks for watching!
Amazing content your channel is so underrated keep the hard work🫶🏻
I appreciate that. Since you're taking the time to watch and comment, you're contributing to the growth. So thank you
In regard to panel saws and lacking the same technology as a SawStop. True panel saws are operated differently than a traditional table saw. Their inherit design eliminates typical kick back scenarios. And their operations and design also keep your hands away from the blade, unless you aren't operating it safely, thus correctly. I think if someone has the means to purchase a true panel saw and are concern about safety, I suggest that you operate one before making assumptions that the SawStop is the only safe saw. Now credit where credit is due, and SawStop saws are nearly idiot proof, ensuring the function is ""ON". But with a panel saw, just operating it correctly and not taking short cuts (using jigs and clamps as appropriate), your hands are never required to be close enough to the blade to create an environment where an accident may occur, no matter how small the piece you are cutting.
I agree, but sometimes I'm an idiot. So problem solved
This past year they released a couple panel saws at AWFS that had similar technology. Maybe more advanced as you don’t need to replace the cartridge. Felder should have it.
I’ve been considering a panel saw as well and agree with the above statement but since I don’t currently have the space I should be going with Harvey later this year.
Hey man, so I have a question for you. And you’re just the guy that can answer it.
So I’ve built many cabinets. With my dad who’s been a carpenter since the 70s. And how he prefers to do it is stick build it on site. We get pretty good results. But I’ve been in his ear about him letting me build them in my lil shop (my garage)
My question is when you install, do you putty the nail holes and caulk the trim and then paint again?
What do you do if the wall you’re installing into isn’t square,plumb, or level? That’s my dad’s main argument against building them off site. We do those things while we’re building.
For example there is a little gap in your basecap in the finished product. Obviously it’s not been installed to finish yet. But would you caulk or putty a little spot like that? How do you go about installing and finishing the install?
We use wax fillers for holes, then touch up with the original paint if necessary. For caulk lines we tape the finished product, caulk the seam, and immediately paint with the wall paint, then pull the tape. Youll have to watch more of my videos to see. Here's a video on installs ua-cam.com/video/1YPB6A0pSOg/v-deo.html
@@FortressFineWoodworks thanks man. I appreciate it.
A secret drawer in the bottom would have been really cool
So true. That's actually a great idea. Thanks!
I had the same kickback happen to me (while cutting the same molding), but I wasn't so lucky. It hit me in the right hip and threw me about 10" backwards. I ended up at urgent care just to make sure it didn't break my hip. I had a hard time walking for a couple days.
Yikes! That sounds rough. I'm sorry that happened to you.
Mind if I ask what paint sprayer you use? I can’t find it in description. Thanks!
It's the graco x7 with a 308 fflp tip.

@@FortressFineWoodworks oh, so you use two different sprayers? Do you just use a different one for different applications?
I use hvlp for solvent "oil based" coatings, and airless for waterbased coatings
Hi Cody,
If you don’t mind me asking, what product did you use to paint this and what size tip in your gun? This turned out beautifully!
Hi Kristen, Cody is my employee, I'm Cory. We used 2 coats of envirothane 170 white primer. Sanded with 320 or 400 grit until buttery smooth. One coat of envirothane 200 White topcoat tinted to Dover White. You can get envirolak products from industrial coating suppliers. The airless sprayer is a graco x7. The tip is a 308 FFLP tip for everything. Thanks for watching!
My apologies.
Thank you so much for the response. Best wishes for the new year!
Happy new year!
what program do you use for 3d drawing? Thanks
I use sketchup 2017
really glad no one got brittany speared. this would be a good video for blacktail studios compilation of what could go wrong.
We are glad too! That's very true! Thanks for watching
Great content and editing skills, I hope to get to your level someday. Thank you FBWW
I truly appreciate that.
Let me help you out . Order your doors from a good door company. It makes life so much easier. And don't over engineering if your customer isn't paying for it
We build it all. 💪
3:32 why is the dado so much wider than the vertical piece? It's offering no support and structural aids at all. It also isn't specifically placing the panel in the correct position, either...
Because in a cabinet like this, I don't need that extra support. It's just for alignment. And fitting a perfect dado take twice the time as a looser one. My dados are much tighter on tower cabinets and shelving where the strength us needed. Thanks for watching!
Im pretty sure it's not the aluminum that triggers the saw. It's the current running through it + meeting the resistance of your skin that does. If your hands were electrically isolated from the aluminium, the safety shouldnt trigger.
That's a great observation! I would say it's the electricity grounding through the cast iron since that is far more conductive than my juicy hands
@@FortressFineWoodworks Sure, that too, the main point being the current needs to hit the "resistance" (not sure if that's the correct word cause physics) of skin or similar like a hot dog. The saw doesnt activate by contacting something conductive, ie metal on it's own shouldnt trigger the saw. Metal + your hands touching the metal will. I think there's an article/FAQ on SawStop that discusses how the tech works. It's not triggered by conductivity.
Geeez... my OCD just thanked me for your work. What a masterpiece.
That pesky OCD. I'm glad it's so thankful!
Thanks for watching!
That’s gorgeous
I appreciate it!
Re: maple tendon wood binding: seems to happen to me with maple a lot!
Thanks for watching!
It's a shame to see the maple painted! 🥺 It would look so nice with one of the Rubio Monocoat light/white finishes. Maple has such a lovely, subtle grain. It's a shame to hide it.
Maple is nice for either or. I wish I didn't have to paint either! Thanks!
Nice!!!
Thank you! Cheers!
Beautiful work! I’d love to see a video of you drawing that in SketchUp, not a how to use SU, just watching your process. I struggle to draw flutes on pilasters and columns.
I just drew the outside edge of each flute then push/pulled it in 1/4 inch. So by design, its not a real flute in the model, but good enough to look like one.
What is the whie board thing you are drawing on?
It's just a mini white board from Walmart. Thanks for watching!
Why do you use that instead of paper? What is the advantage?
I need one of those in my shop! Great idea!
Because it's easy for the camera to see, it's hard to lose, and helps conserve paper
Totally! They're like 8 bucks so why not
I am a cabinet maker finish carpenter & recently stopped painting my projects? Well I don’t hv a large shop and ppl were not willing to pay the price! Are you actually making your money back?
Since I have the space and the equipment, yes its easier to paint my own projects. Especially because I can control the quality. So yes, it still makes money.
Dude.
I know you've had a partially-sh***y 2023, so up front, I'm willing you an awesome 2024. This video had SO MUCH STUFF that I felt compelled to comment on, but after scribbling notes, I stopped. You don't need a comment section dissertation. I'll just launch two thoughts like a wood missile off the blade for you:
1 - Commented below re.: Sawstops; pay the money, keep your body parts... Cody technically can get new eyes, but they'll be glass and not useful for seeing hot chicks... or wood.
2 - Your commission allows pocket screw nirvana here, yes, but I'm completing my home office built-in stuff, and I'd say that if your shelf units are going to hold 1000 lb of books (no, not joking), then even 1/4" dadoes will save your butt... I wouldn't trust pin nails or even screws to withstand that kind of shearing force. Yes, the floor is sagging already.
Awesome build. Please don't stop the content.
Haha you've got me cracking up over here. Taking notes for a comment lol I know what you mean.
Cody with two glass eyes.... haha he would be quite useless
Those dados do a lot. I know. Infact, I've never seen something break out of a dado.
Thanks for taking your funny as time to comment. Happy new year!
@@FortressFineWoodworks No problem! I love your style and all your content!
Thanks man.
7:36 Only because you seem to be as pedantic as myself, I think that might be a groove technically, but I didn't find a good look at the grain direction in the video.
Yeah, I call it a dado whether it's with the grain or across. Thanks!
Can you make spesific and detail video on How to paint / finishing.tqvm
Ive made a few different videos that go more in depth. Heres a good one ua-cam.com/video/iaSz_Yw0_NY/v-deo.html

Nice work
Thank you! I appreciate you watching!
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Thank you!
The main drawback of a saw stop besides the price gouging is that it destroys the saw blade and the cartridge. I dont think its necessary to stop the blade like that given how fast it retracts the blade. It could use a non destructive brake to stop the blade if any brake is needed at all. Its fairly likely the brake is only there to be a consumable and force customers to buy replacements.
I actually agree with that. But they actually give you a free brake if it detected skin. So I think they are trying their best
@@FortressFineWoodworks I would like to see someone do the hotdog test without the break installed. They are probably going to have to trick it into thinking there is a break.
Yah, it needs the brake for the system to be active
@@TomsBackyardWorkshop I'm not enough of an engineer to speak intelligently, but I'll say that my left pinky finger wishes I'd bought a Sawstop. Sometimes, if it's stupid but works, it's not stupid... old Army saying there.
@mattelias721 I didn't say it was stupid. it's just way overpriced, and the braking system is unnecessary.
Minute 23'10": the piece of wood has been rejected because the parallel guide is not well positioned. It should not go after the saw blade.
Very true. Things happen, thanks for watching!
15:32 💀😱😅
Haha thanks for watching!

Thanks Kevin! I appreciate you!
beautiful. nice voiceovers. what are you using when using a brush to clean the woodglue? is woodglue water resistant?
Thank you. The brush is dipped in warm water to clean up the glue. This is titebond 2 so its water resistant when fully cured
