  • In this episode of Crafted, a new series by NS Builders Ken DeCost and the shop crew pull back the curtain and show every detail from drawings to the completed cabinet. Our cabinetry process is what most would call "overkill" but we show you why our custom cabinetry is a superior product. We also show the everyday dynamic of working in a shop and the mistakes that happen. This is not your average how to video on cabinet making. Tune in!

    Very well done. This was a strange video for me to watch... I had been a part time self employed pro woodworker for 8 years and now a full time woodworker for 2 years. I build my cabinets and doors and run my shop very much like you guys do but as a one man shop. This is kinda like getting a look into my future in 5 or 6 years. Very similar to how I'm planning on building my business.
    Great job! It was a pleasure to come into your shop and take a look

    Hey guys, I really appreciate the quality and pride you put in your work. I just wanted to share something I observed in this video that I thought would be helpful.
    You really don’t want to run a finished door across the jointer. You mention doing this “to re-square your door to have a flat edge to go off of”.
    The jointer will take your door style out of parallel. This will mirror itself now on the table saw when squaring up the door again. This will result in a square door that has styles out of parallel to one another and appears slightly skewed.
    This is why you face joint and edge joint a board first, then take it to the table saw to make parallel. This is also why you never joint both sides of a board, creating a wedge shape as a result.
    Overall amazing cabinets though. Just wanted to pass the information along incase it wasn’t something you though about. It’s best practice to use the table saw for fine tuning after assembly. 🍻

    Fantastic video and attention to detail. Would love to see more out of the shop from NSB. Who makes the 3/8" groove tooling you all are using? How do the guys like the cope-eze sled? "We've been told it's overkill, doesn't matter, that's how we want to do it, that's how we're gonna build 'em" - loved that line. To that end check out a miter lock on the shaper for the corners/returns and parallel the sticks on the shaper with an outboard fence rather then table saw, no machine marks/burns.

    You can take a damp cloth (preferrable cotton wool) and wipe the excess glue off while it is wet. And yes, you can scrape it and wipe it while it is setting up. Will save you lots of time later.

      We would start with building the face frames, with a 1/2" dado in the back. The 1/2" sides would be dadoed to receive the floors tops and the backs..Glue and blind pinning them all. No fasteners on the exterior of any cabinet, and using 1/2" prefinished ply for the interiors. Final touch up sanding on face frames as needed...then onto staining and finishing. Extended stiles as needed for scribing. No face frame cabinets would be joined with biscuits (or dominos now) with back routed into the sides...all 3/4" material. Shelves on both styles were either metal standards or drilled depending on the job. I like the care you take to match grain and color. We are lucky that we always were able to obtain panel and solid lumber from the same source, always a wholesale supplier.
