This is a different view. Almost like being in the shop with you. And showed how much attention you pay for perfection in alignment when putting the drawers together.. Thank you Mr. Jon
Bravo, Jon~! I really like the raw video footage. As said below, I too could watch hours of this. Shop sounds over music any day~! It's reassuring to see others that agonize over details of a project as I do, such as alignment to the minuscule degree. Either my time in the Army being programmed with "attention to detail" or momma's mantra "if it's worth doing, then it's worth doing right~!" Also, your notes below answered the questions that I had. Thanks for putting this out~! 😃👍
Thanks for putting this up Jon. I think social media, in particular heavily edited videos and "shorts", gives new woodworkers a false expectation on the time and patience needed to produce quality work; ultimately setting them up for failure. Oh, and great drawer build, as always!!
👌👍. I know that many people would tune out, but it gives a good idea, that slow is good. The thing that I am lacking is having all tools etc there ready to go. I don't set things up until I need them, so I piss fart around during the build wasting valuable shop time.
Interesting to see how you do it, Jon, since I'm currently cutting components for ~35 drawers in the big assembly table. Hmm, maybe I'll do a similar video to show my process.
I think it adds a little strength and also will remove any potential rattle from the drawer bottom. It’s something my boss did more than 30 years ago and I’ve been doing ever since.
Bonjour. Je ne comprends pas, avec des clous pourquoi mettre des serre-joints et des vis en plus ? Perte de temps non ? Je veux juste comprendre, merci.

Love this format. I could watch hours of this with just shop sounds.
Glad you enjoy it!
Me, too.
The content we need! Amazing Jon. Just love seeing the true process in one clip thanks for showing!
Thank you Frank!
Amigo hermoso trabajo..me encantan tus videos..un abrazo desde Chile 🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱

Thanks Scott! Really appreciate the feedback!
12:45 We all know this sigh all too well. The only difference is most of us have 10-15 sighs per project and you only had one 😂
lol thats for sure, I got lucky with this one :)
Jon, it's really nice to see that you are as meticulous with the drawers as you are with the rest of the piece.
Bill
Thanks Bill!
Thanks for sharing, Jon. As always, it’s great and amazing job from you.
I love seeing what it actually looks like to assemble this drawer without editing to compress time or any steps.
Amazing job! I would put my money on that drawer. precise and strong as it can be.
It’s very satisfying to see the construction of a well made drawer. Thanks for showing 😃
Thanks!
Nice work as usual Jon. Really enjoy your craftsmanship.
Thank Larry!
Love the new format! Easy watching for sure. Really shows all the effort and detail that goes into something most people consider as 'simple.'
Wonderful format - thanks for this, very useful for a relative beginner woodworker.
Nice work & a rather interesting video format Jon! 👍👍
Thanks Steve, it was fun to change it up a bit
Over at Greene Street tomorrow shooting a video for today’s craftsmen… I really look forward to shooting those videos.
this is cool. It's really hard to shoot video by yourself. thanks for posting this John. It shows the process you don't see often
Valuable viewpoint for sure!
Love this, more please!
Thanks Greg!
This was great.
Thanks Jimmy

Very enjoyable.
Thanks Tom!

Cool! I’d like to see it Andrew
sufficient to hold Gold bars. Nice!
Yep, that is one stout drawer. Wish my kitchen drawers were even half as strong.
Thanks! Nothing like a 1/2” Baltic Birch drawer bottom 👍
Nice
0:39 it almost became a two take with the miss of the pocket loop. Whew. The suspense.
Beautiful piece. Did you end up putting dowels to fill the side holes or leave them as the video showed?
Thanks, yes, I did fill them with walnut plugs
Master at work. Does the 3/4 baltic birch have expansion and contraction?
Thanks Thomas! Not too much… I hope… one thing I’ve learned is you never know
What is the purpose of the hot glue?
I think it adds a little strength and also will remove any potential rattle from the drawer bottom.
It’s something my boss did more than 30 years ago and I’ve been doing ever since.
Why do you add the hot glue on the bottom?
Just to add a bit more strength, something I’ve been doing for decades, and doesn’t take that much time.
Good job. What kind of glue do you use? thanks
Thanks! I really don't know, I bought a box of 1000 sticks about 30 years ago and I'm still using them :)
@@JonPetersArtHome sorry, i was wondering about the wood glue
Bonjour. Je ne comprends pas, avec des clous pourquoi mettre des serre-joints et des vis en plus ? Perte de temps non ? Je veux juste comprendre, merci.
The nails are to help position. The screws are for strength.
@@JonPetersArtHomethanks for your reply
Just shows you how a butt joint done correctly can be super strong. 🤙🏼
Nice Jon, you make it look so easy. The hot glue was that hot wood glue or the clear?
Thanks! it's clear but very strong glue
@@JonPetersArtHome what is the reason why you do that? The wood glue and screws make it strong.
@@danyodice1048 I think it adds a little strength to the drawer and reduces any possibility of rattle in the drawer bottom
Nice job...if you screwed thru the front and back into the sides, you would never see the screws...
I need to try that… been thinking about it for a while
Woodwork is not an endeavour for the patience-challenged!
That is for sure 👍
