    Years ago, you were one of the channels that really, deeply, put the idea in my head of pursuing woodworking as a career. I didn't start green at all, coming from a design background, a life of making as a hobbyist, and both parents being architects, but now I'm almost done with my 4th year as a professional in high-end residential cabinetry and millwork. I'm the new-school rookie in a shop full of veterans with 20+ years on me, but I can still knock out an entire rift sawn white oak, true inset kitchen on my own with no supervision largely because watching your channel, Four Eyes, and Keith Johnson for years beforehand set me up with so much knowledge ahead of my first year in it. I've even shown a few old heads some tricks I've learned from you first! Thanks.

    It actually blew my mind seeing you and hearing you call out the differences in processes and the machinery blowing your mind. You're crazy talented, so I just assumed a lot of those things you pointed out were just some unspoken stuff you did we didn't see in your videos. I can tell Josh is super successful just based on his operating procedure, efficiencies, and organization. Like outsourcing drawers, that's a definite production shop thing.
    I definitely subscribed because becoming Josh is my goal in the next 5 to 10 years.
    I hope to see you incorporate some of these procedures, maybe even some of the equipment onto the Bourbon Moth Channel.... You're already super talented and a great educator, so you could do alot of good in multiple ways doing it...Facebook has some Cabinetmaker groups that are GREAT sources of knowledge that bridge the gap between a Woodworker and a Cabinetmaker if you're interested

    Just building 5 cabinet boxes was enough to max out my 2 car garage available space. I couldn’t imagine doing a full kitchen, seems like you’d have to do it in phases. I get it, full kitchen buildout is a lot of work and could take a month or more. Pretty cool he knocked out a whole phase of the build in hours and learned a few tricks.

      They are very nice units. Pricey but do work very well at getting stuff out and easier to access. However, stop the video and examine the unused space around the unit itself. Possibly one of the biggest waste of overall space in a corner especially at the cost compared to other options. Anything you do in a corner is a very delicate balance of maximizing space used, functionality and cost. Changing any 1 will definitely impact the others!

    • @MyGrowthRings
      @MyGrowthRings Місяць тому +1

    I build cabinets for a living and do it in a much more cramped space than your current garage shop. Probably a similar size garage but I have way more space taken up with lumber and sheet goods and tools like that same sliding table saw as your buddy Josh. It's not easy sometimes but it's definitely doable and it's definitely not a shop space for 2.

    Beyond your skills as a maker, I appreciated your skills as a storyteller. However, I have one complaint about your wife (yeah, I am about to step into dangerous waters). My mother taught me that if you by nice stuff, use it. Things are made to be used. If you have a nice ceramic bowl. Bol (the goddess of bowls) wants those bowls to be used for salads, mixing, etc. The one thing they should not be used for is collecting dust. And if something gets chipped, well, that becomes a story of the life of the bowl.
    Then again, you can take the safe was and just listen to your wife. Anyway, keep up the good story telling and thanks for your channel.

      Watching the pro was very eye-opening. But, I was thinking the same as you. A few years ago I built 21 lowers and 14 uppers and a 48" X 96" pantry. There was a combo of drawers, doors, shelves, etc. This included an "L" shaped island. All with Euro style hinges, drawer slides, knobs, shelf pins, etc. My shop is a 1 car garage that shared space with my mower ( I since added a shed for the lawn equipment). I couldn't roll tools out of the garage, but did use a canopy to spray like you. The remodel also included me installing new flooring, drywall, backsplash and relocating plumbing & electrical. It took me longer, but the results were the same. Definitely can be done. Thx.

Also at 13:35 you nailed the panels together. just a hint turn your nailer perpendicular to the piece your going into. it prevents nails hitting something and ruining your panel. finally someone who actually calls the machine what it is called. It is a lamelo machine, not a biscuit cutter. Laugh. 4 Days? I did european style and 1 kitchen (not including doors as i bought them) would take 8 hours. My friend with his $350000 cnc can do the whole thing in 4 hours cut and assembled. I love to see how other people do things. But i have not built faceframe cabinets in like forever.
