16k for cabinets installed. I just cant! I can follow directions and I remodeled my bathroom myself. This video makes me realize, I can do this for less than 16k and get more of what I want. Thanks.
Love this video. My RTA's collapsed after trying to mount my countertop. After watching this video, I am going to assemble them the way you did. The cam lock system is garbage.
@@southernyankee870 I'm in tampa and I cant seem to find this Tampa wholesale you are talking about. I would definitely want to see these in person so I could make a decision
No 100% unnecessary. Those clips I use, then when you tie it all together with the back panel. Cabinet will not separate. But if you feel safer with glue then go for it
The screws I use for the cabinets is 2 and a half inch long. They work perfect for styles and mounting to the studs. When I build the cabinets I only use glue for the drawers. The 45 degree clips are super strong. So, no glue is needed.
I'm a bit concerned about how thse get assembled. The fact that all that is holding the carcass together is a few screws and brads mostly going between layers of the plywood (read weak hold) leads me to think these will be much less sturdy. Wouldn't it make sense to glue those channels and clamp them? A continuous strip of wood glue along the channel is far stronger than a plastic clip with a few screws. Also, aesthetically, the face nailed brads.. Aren't these going to show on the end cabs? Unless you are repainting parts of the cab, I'd worry about that. I'm considering doing RTA cabs for my kitchen remodel, but I'd be worried about how these hold up. At least they aren't MDF though.
Thank you for the response. As far as the cleats and screws. Iv been doing this for over 30 years. It’s more than strong! You don’t need wood glue or clamps. Thousands of installers and factories build cabinets this way. Also, as far as the brad nails, they get covered up with scribe molding. If you were to build cabinets using “clamps” you would need about 50 or more clamps to do one kitchen. No use in that!
Glue is essential for drawer boxes, crown molding, but when it comes to screwing the boxes together it’s not a necessity. Iv been installing and building for over 30 years. Those clips that I use are plenty of strength. If you wanna use glue then that’s your preference, not a necessity

What is the brand of the cabinets?
thanks a lot for the vide. That makes sense. Iw as thinking you need to put all the brackets they supply.
Nice, I just noticed these at Home Depot and I am considering them over the already assembled units made mostly of particle board.
Thank you, these cabinets I got from Tampa wholesale.

Can you tell me what size screws those are? the ones that came with it punch thru to the outside of the sidewall. also, do you use glue at all?

Thank you glad you liked my channel.
No glue!?! Pretty sure it calls for glue.
