I have said this many times and will say it again, your work is absolutely amazing and your videos are the best on youtube. Nothing better than early morning coffee while watching your videos!
Very Nice! I'll check in on you now and again. Definitely put in the video when you're doing a project for an Angi client. I want to see what kinds of projects they ask for.
I once commented that good content is worth waiting for. Excellent work as usual, and I'm sure the company of Cody is welcome, and an opportunity to relax a little on big builds. And it's good to see you laughing brother! Fond regards from Chester in the UK 🇬🇧
Wow, dude. Great execution. I love watching your professionalism while you execute your commissions. The fact that you make your drawer boxes out of solid material is a great indicator, and from experience I know just how much better the drawers turn out (structurally AND aesthetically). I always have to keep telling myself during your videos, "It's the customer's requirement, ignore the finish." Makes my eye twitch a bit to bury nice maple under paint, but... customer, right? Question: I've looked around at my local big box places and some specialty stores, but they don't seem to carry Codys... did you have to source your Cody online?
Haha thanks man. The drawers really do come out nice with solid maple. I totally get what you mean about the finish. Us woodworkers have a different appreciation for the wood itself. Although, as time progresses, I'm beginning to realize that it's all art and art is art. If the customer is happy then we are in business. P.S. Cody is actually AI. Just ask chat gpt and you can get one.....Thanks for Watching!!
Infinity makes an 8” by 1/4” flat bottom grind blade ! I rarely use a dado stack or as I say “ DD” dangerous Dado Stack! I make my drawers and all dados up to 3/4 “ ( more than that the DD goes on and a cup) ?
I dado 3/16 deep so that the pockethole screws have more to bite into. And the widths range from 1/2 to 3/4 depending on which panel is being connected
@@FortressFineWoodworks no what I mean is we all know that 1/2” ply is not actually 0.5000” and that even between different manufacturers the widths will vary a bit. So how precise do you make your dado? Do you adjust the stack to be a tight fit to the plywood in hand each time (assuming slight variations)?
Cody...pay attention and learn from the Master! Oh yeah, and don't be late for work as your samiches will disappear and you will have only chips to eat. Might think about bringing your own TP and hiding it, too!
Sorry but this is a bad job. What is this ridiculous frame and that weird hinges for? It is ugly and not practical at all. 2nd, silicone? Really? On wood???. 3. And you never center the handles for the lower drawers. In your case only the top drawer handle is centered. The middle and bottom drawer the handle has to be up. The same distance to the top edge like your top drawer....
I really appreciate your insight. Those are great ideas. I didn't think about off centering the lower drawer pulls. Thanks for watching and I hope to hear from you again!
I'm glad you were able to get yourself a Cody!
Thank you. I am more than happy. He's a great friend and employee
Been binge watching your stuff. Your attention to detail is absolutely inspiring!
Thanks for binge watching! That supports the channel so much!
I have said this many times and will say it again, your work is absolutely amazing and your videos are the best on youtube. Nothing better than early morning coffee while watching your videos!
Very kind! Thank you. That means a lot! I hope to get better and better so you can keep enjoying what you're watching.

Thank you very much! Glad you liked it!
We all need a Cody sometimes 🤘
We really do though. Thanks for watching
Nice tip with fixing the fit on box joints, I’ve got a bunch of drawer boxes to do and I’m sure I’ll get the chance to test it out
Yeah, we end up needing to use that trick more often than not. Thanks for watching
You are so under sub'd it is criminal. great work man. love your videos.
I truly appreciate it. The time will come.... hopefully. Thanks for watching!
Impressive results!
Thanks for watching!
Very Nice! I'll check in on you now and again. Definitely put in the video when you're doing a project for an Angi client. I want to see what kinds of projects they ask for.
Absolutely. Maybe at some point we can do a sponsorship or something.

I like your vedio before even watching you .may allah bless you with guidance and prosperity 🌻
Im glad you like it! I wish you the best!
Nice
Thanks!
somebody to "hold the other end" is handy!!
Haha I don't know if that was intended as a naughty joke, but it works! Thanks for watching!

Infinity makes an 8” by 1/4” flat bottom grind blade ! I rarely use a dado stack or as I say “ DD” dangerous Dado Stack! I make my drawers and all dados up to 3/4 “ ( more than that the DD goes on and a cup) ?
That's good to know. I don't see how that would be any safer than a dado stack. But it would be nice to have
@@FortressFineWoodworks to me? It seems less grabby? And def easier set up ? Now I could be all wet on that one?
Сколько часов в общей сложности ушло на весь процесс изготовления?
I believe it took about 3 weeks. So 120 hours
@@FortressFineWoodworks спасибо. А пистолет покрасочный безвоздушный? Не видно бачка с краской
So it looks like you dado the face frame 1/4” deep by 3/4” wide to fit onto the face frame?
I dado 3/16 deep so that the pockethole screws have more to bite into. And the widths range from 1/2 to 3/4 depending on which panel is being connected
@@FortressFineWoodworks do you adjust the dado stack each time to accommodate for micro-variations in plywood thickness ?
If I have 75% 1/2" then I will just leave the dado stack at 1/2 and double cut for any of the 3/4 cuts. If it's 50% of each, I will switch the stack
@@FortressFineWoodworks no what I mean is we all know that 1/2” ply is not actually 0.5000” and that even between different manufacturers the widths will vary a bit. So how precise do you make your dado? Do you adjust the stack to be a tight fit to the plywood in hand each time (assuming slight variations)?
That makes sense. I make it loose by about 1/32 or 1 mm . So it usually works to make the dado exactly 1/2 since the ply is slightly under
Where's the countertop installation?
Thats a great question. The contractor that did the bathroom had the countertop installed. So we werent there. Thanks!
Cody...pay attention and learn from the Master! Oh yeah, and don't be late for work as your samiches will disappear and you will have only chips to eat. Might think about bringing your own TP and hiding it, too!
Hahaha that was funny. Thank you for bringing a hilarious smile to our faces. We appreciate you!
❤💥💥💥💥
Thank you!
Do you live in Colorado?
Yes, Fortress Fine Woodworks is in Denver Colorado
Beautiful piece but after all that work more original and unique pulls should have been used
Everyone has their preferences
