That under the sink storage unit, I'm thinking that is going to make plumbing repairs really complicated later. I've had to fix/replace drains and hoses too many times. Also, sometimes you need to inspect to be sure nothing has sprung a drip or two. I'd make the back of that mostly open for easier viewing and access later. You don't need a solid piece all the way across you could do it with two 2inch pieces top and bottom and still be sufficiently sturdy.
I made the two drawers on the right side and left the left side in small tubs that can be pulled out easily .... but the other two drawers are extremely easy to keep everything in them and pull out when needed. :)
I was thinking... when he needs to reset his garbage disposal, that's going to be a pain in the butt. Lol He could have put the shelves on sliders so they could be easily moved out of the way. Just a thought
Cool projects. Be sure you have lots of confidence in your plumbing under the sink if you choose to box off the visual to the fittings/floor. I'm more a fan of the right side with slide out drawers.
"A place for everything and everything in it's place" was an often repeated saying of my very organized Grandmother. Hearing it brings back fond memories of her. 💓
I was surprised to see that your channel had less than 1 million subscribers. Your Videos have given me hours of both entertainment and Education. I hope that this channel gets the recognition it deserves.
When I did mine a few years ago, I took the added step of rotating the disposal and re-routing the pipes to increase usable space under the sink. Some plumbers installation is based on their convenience and not on avoiding wasting space.
I just built new cabinetry for my camper, and being the plumber, as well, I took great pains to be a space conscious as possible, to get as much of the drain piping way agains the back wall. It helped us gain a lot of space under there for such a tiny kitchen.
If you pay close attention to the before video and when I install it you'll see I actually did that. Added a 90 degree fitting to the wall and to disposal for the electric. Just didn't want to open that can of worms on the vid 👍👍
I’ll start saving up for an iron and once I win the lottery I can get the rest of those tools and supplies and then a year or so of practice and I should be ready to do this project. Your projects turned out great. Good job.
Awesome ideas¡! .looking forward to trying some for my self Something that would really help is seeing how you make things with out all the special tools - so maybe you could do a video without all those tools ??
Agreeing with several comments below about the left side of the under-sink. This will be a pain if you need to get to the plumbing, particularly as you fixed that down before installing the right hand side. A removable shelf set would be recommended. So, the assembly would need to be able to fit back out the door opening. For stability, you could try a base that extends past the insert to the back of the cabinet (and if necessary, a piece of wood screwed to the back of the cabinet so the assembly cannot tip forwards, so the base is prevented from going off the floor of the cabinet). In effect, making a removable shelf assembly. Otherwise, nice job, especially the pull outs on the right hand side.
I just wanted to say that I had an original particle board drawer in my kitchen that broke for the third time and regluing it or brackets would not keep it together any more. So I built a drawer out of plywood. I took careful measurements off the old drawer, used the original glides, AND IT WAS PERFECT! Slid in like it was greased. So doing these kinds of things is not out of the reach of someone with very, very basic skills.
Good tip for working on under cabinet stuff is an automotive type creeper. Gets you just high enough you dont have a pressure point on your back as your laying under a cabinet. I use a little light weight plastic one. Make it so much more comfortable if your under a sink a lot.
@@Fixthisbuildthat No problem, learned it a while back from a guy who worked multi family housing mainteance for 30 years. Said things like that are why he can still whoop my butt at his age hahaha 😆
You have fab ideas, are very creative and your a fun guy!! Plus, your partner and kid(s) are so darn lucky with a handyman in the house!!! Thanks for all the tips, I will keep them in a map for the future and will certainly use them. Warm regards from, Pinkie
Thanks. You're really great. I want to build the magic corner for my kitchen. It would be perfect if you build one. Sorry for my bad English. Congrats from Argentina
Great project. I can't get enough cabinent storage ideas. I would want the drawer higher so you can add more. BTW - I didn't see any plastic containers that were actually "Tupperware". LOL
Great projects, fun to watch and very well done. However I must give you a heads up; On mobile it was 8 ads I had to wach, interrupting me at various points the middle of the video. I find myself only alloting youtube 1/5 of the time I spent on it before as I now only watch on desktop with an adblock.
By the way, this was a brilliant project. I just did the same, using scrap for everything, although I did have to buy the rails. A few weeks ago, someone threw out the slats from their bed. I used those for the frames. My wife loves the results. This is a stopgap, because I'm going to build all new cabinets over the winter and then redo the kitchen top to bottom next spring/summer. Your channel has been great for ideas and instruction.
The thing I like best is that you separated or segmented the area underneath the sink so that nothing can go beyond where you can find it. Nobody likes reaching back there were on the pipes and wires are anyway. I might have to do that. The best I’d come up with is just to keep things in those plastic wash basins and not have anything actually sitting on the floor of the cabinet, but actually having a “wall” to keep anything from getting past it is WAY better. Thanks for the idea and “how to”!
13:15-Ive had my small ryobi table saw for over 10 years, and yesterday i realized that “funny design” on the side is a push stick screwed to the table saw! 9/17/2020
The last idea with the peg board would work also as a dish drawer you would want to also make sure you used heavy duty drawer slides to help accommodate the weight weight thicker pegs ??
Hey Brad, one more idea, install one of those under cabinet drawers that open at the floor for things like racks and cookie sheets. Would love to see one of those projects too. Nothing hard but you want as much storage as you can get, right? Easy and wasted if you don't use it.
Love the channel Brad. You definitely have some skills. If I could ask you, what type of slides would you use to add a sliding shelf that will be mounted on top of a fixed shelf (if that makes sense). Its going in a walk in pantry on the bottom shelf. I was just planning on using an 18"W x 15"D x 1/2" ply. I will add a rear lip to keep things from falling back. Seriously daunting when you start learning about the different types of slides. Thank you Brad
I by no means am a build anything person, but I do love watching you. Really good instruction, a bit of humor and good tips. I love all the tools you demonstrate too. Any job is easier with the right tool. Not that I'm ever going to buy all those, but the ideas are great for when I can hire someone to "build that" for me. However, I have to say, calling all plastic storage containers Tupperware is like calling your refrigerator a Frigidaire or a facial tissue Kleenex. Tupperware, Frigidaire and Kleenex are brand names, not descriptors. Sorry, just a pet peeve of mine. You do you.
Subbed . Great ideas you have there . My issues is trying to figure out how to build a magic corner shelf for that dreaded dead space you always end up with
I could really use new pull-out. Having them on the bottom would really make everything so accessible. Love the peg organizer too. Can we swap kitchens? Please!
Wow, do I need your organization skills at my house, more for the mans basement workshop, it drives me crazy, before he moved in, I had it totally organized, true, I didn't have as many tools etc..., but enough, as I do manage as many of my own home repairs as possible. FRUGAL is the word. My next BIG PROJECT is my kitchen, after 30yrs, 2 kids, and now having 4 grandchildren I love to bake with, I need a major revamp, just need money & supplies & mostly knowledge of how to do, hence watching your video. TYFS, so knowledgable, definite saved video.
Just watching this video made me stop everything I was doing (work) and clean and just organize some of my cabinets. Next is some shelf building in certain spots.
Pretty fantastic work, Brad! Looks MUCH better! 😃 I showed your video to my mother... And I guess I'm going to have to build something like that for her soon as well. 😬 Anyway, stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Looks great Brad. Quick, easy and well organized. You didn't mention the most important thing though. What does the Boss think about it? Keep 'em coming sir.
Just a nice simple weekend project..., Provided you have all the same tools that I have here in my shop. Looks like I'll be doing the MacGyver version of this job myself. 🤣🤣
Excellent video! I've been waiting to see how you were going to construct all of these projects ever since I saw your teaser video. I do have some questions though. How much a consern do you have that that your access to the plumbing is now limited (or at least a big hassle) because you would need to unscrew the shelving to get to the pipes? Also, as you were considering the build, did you consider any options where the removal of the shelves could be done easier...some sort of latching or locking system? I'd love to hear your thoughts. Thanks
I've had to go into the pipes under the sink 3 times in 7 years. And removal is just emptying the shelves (which you'd have to do anyway) and then removing 2 screws. I think that's more than easy enough for the amount of times I'll do it
@@Fixthisbuildthat man 3 times in 7 years actually seems like more than I'd guess. Either I've been lucky or you've been unlucky! Or maybe you're doing more upgrades than I. :) Great stuff! Thanks for the ideas. 👍

When I did mine a few years ago, I took the added step of rotating the disposal and re-routing the pipes to increase usable space under the sink. Some plumbers installation is based on their convenience and not on avoiding wasting space.
Man I just put my disposal in last week. Literally took a single 90⁰ turn to get another 8 inches of useable space
I just built new cabinetry for my camper, and being the plumber, as well, I took great pains to be a space conscious as possible, to get as much of the drain piping way agains the back wall. It helped us gain a lot of space under there for such a tiny kitchen.

i made that same cabinet divider for my cooking trays from the handyman magazine. i just finished it yesterday!
it was such a great idea
Yes! And sneaking a shelf above it made it even better 👍
I have to say that under sink arrangement is pure awesomeness!
That was really , really good! A pleasure to watch.
Thanks matey

6:44 - can be made even more convenient by making the right door sliding forward (fix it on the bottom tray)
