    My pops used to say that an expert isn’t someone who doesn’t make mistakes. He’s just someone who has seen every mistake and knows how to avoid or fix them

    I love how Wesley uses only tools that a general shop will have. I sometimes get real tired of seeing people use CNC machines and other tools is common folk don’t have; it’s nice to see someone use extraordinary techniques with accessible tools to do remarkable work.

    Wesley, you clearly have much to learn. Most other youtubers have long ago mastered the art of video editing so as to showcase their flawlessness. How can you expect to grow your subscribers if you allow us to see that you are a mere human being?!

    I enjoyed this video because you allowed us to see mistakes and how you resolved them. I suspect most people are too prideful to show it in their videos. I learned more because you shared the kind of mistakes we all make.

    Wesley, your stuff is great, man. It's the perfect mix of presenting a project in an entertaining way and creative problem solving. :) I've had a ton of, "Why didn't I think of that?" moments watching your videos and used several of them in my own stuff. You should have as many subs as Diresta and I'm sure you'll be there someday. Keep 'em coming!

    I enjoyed watching this *allot* ... *especially* the parts where you screwed up. A *Big* part in working with wood is to find ways to fix stuff where you screwed up. That said ... why did you start with the Band for the top on one side then screwed in in sequence. I would have put one screw in on one side ... then on the opposite ... to keep it level. *Everytime* i do it the way you do it here ... it gets screwed up ... and i have to fix allot.

  • @CelticDreamsCoUk
    @CelticDreamsCoUk 5 років тому

    great job, but if I may ask a question.... if the sides (and lid) are sloped then surely the top edge of the front panel (where the lock is) wont marry up with the lid properly. Have you sloped the top edge ? or doesn't it matter much ? Thanks. Dave

    • @WesleyTreat
      @WesleyTreat  5 років тому +1

      I can't remember if I angled the front edge or not, but if I didn't, the front lip will still touch the lid, so it wouldn't matter much. And the angle is so slight, the lock isn't affected.

    Hi,
    Just wanted to say great job on the box. You technique with the patch and gap fill is awesome. Question though, how did you miter the wide boards of the box? I'm guessing sliding miter saw?

    • @mwinner101
      @mwinner101 3 роки тому

      Table saw for the box sides with the blade tilted 45°. Table saw with blade at 90° and crosscut sled with triangle ruler to cut 45° miters for the frame. All boards laying flat.

    Wesley, what is the aerosol spray you were using and what is it's purpose? Looked like some sort of clear coat. Any reason it can't be spayed over stained wood? Just a guy trying to learn.

    • @WesleyTreat
      @WesleyTreat  6 років тому

      Its Deft spray lacquer. You can find it at the big box stores. You can use it over stain. Good luck!

    @fordpowerstroke2012 7 років тому

    How did you make the cam lock work. I have the same set up for my card display case. But I can't wrap my head around on how to make the lock work.
    Any pointers would be great.

    • @WesleyTreat
      @WesleyTreat  7 років тому

      I suppose that depends on where you're stuck. I found it helpful to take two scraps of wood and test the installation with those first to make sure my measurements worked correctly.

    • @fordpowerstroke2012
      @fordpowerstroke2012 7 років тому

      Did you just use a cam lock with a hook and then have the cam lock strike off center. So that when you lock the cam the hook is what will hold the lid from being able to be pulled open.
      (If that makes sense) I just couldn't wrap my head around how a normal cam lock with just a strait cam would be able to lock a case. As it wouldn't be able to hold against anything vs if you used it in a cabinet and it locks against the top lip.
      I'm thinking that's what you did. And that is why you hollowed out the middle area where the lock strike will sit.
      So if this all makes sense haha I guess what I'm asking now is did you just have to put the lock strike off center a bit from the the cam lock so it had something to grab onto?

    • @WesleyTreat
      @WesleyTreat  7 років тому

      Oh, yeah, you definitely have to use the kind with a hook. The one I used is linked in the video description. It comes with a diagram that specifies the offset.

    Was it too costly to replace the side that had the mistake in it? Failing that personally I would have squared the recess and put in a full depth blank from another piece rather than a veneer. Good looking cabinet though.
