Hi, may I know what was the thickness of this plywood?
Awesome to see, but so far away from reality! This is not real diy, you are using top notch professional stuff…
Yeah hang on just let me go and buy a whole workshop.
Dude, you’re going way too fast. Spend a little more time showing your work and while explaining. The colored diagram is great but a 1 second flash on the screen just leaves a viewer wanting to see it more
Awesome video!
I’m needing drawers for my shop for tools. Although most of the tools are not going to be real heave some will be. Will the drawer stand the test of time with heavy tools??
Thanks
Andy
How don’t wood splinters hit and stick in your hands🤔?
" easy and fast" he says 🤪
I run a high end custom cabinet shop. We built our drawers very similarly. We use prefinished Russian Birch, undermount slides, and a 1/4" bottom. We load up a sheet of Russian Birch into the CNC router and it will cut out our parts. With rabbet joints for the sides and a 1/4" dado for the bottom, and then we use 23g pins and glue on the sides just like you did. We have never once had a drawer box failure, and I’ve been building cabinets for 10 years now.
Easy & fast???
Great, just need $20K for the shop tools and skills…🤔😬
It’s a very good video. I have a small table saw and a miter saw. But I don’t think I can do the dado cuts. With unfinished plywood, couldn’t I glue and nail without the dado cuts, and then paint or varnish the box? I would ask home depot to cut the 4×8 sheet into 3 pieces because I couldn’t do it on my small table saw. Any quick response advice would be appreciated. I really hate when the person who does the video won’t reply to questions. 😕
Great job man, Pity dado stacks are illegal in UK
Excellent tutorial !
Thanks👌
Why side mount hardware? It’s ugly! Under mount soft close are so much better!
Hi Tyler would
Love to know the brand of the drawer slides please, or if you have a link
You never mention the bottoms and neither do your subscribers. Did anyone watch this video?
Just spent the evening watching your videos, not watched you for a while, very relaxing evening, thank you for sharing 👍🔨😊📐
Yes you are awesome
Your organization space impresses me, I can’t keep everything organize and clean like that haha
Easy way to build drawers. First step, get yourself a fully equipped carpentry workshop.
you night know what your doing but I’m not sure when you talk you are all over the place awful teacher
I don’t have a shop or table saw. So how can I do this as diy?
Hey what did u do with the unfinished top edge?
Not seeing any links for any items like you mentioned. But thanks for the video 🙂
👏👍
How did we go from doing dado cuts for the frame to you showing the inset of the bottom board and it fits nicely inset with no explanation
Quality lookin drawers 👌
Nice shop. For light duty items this will work but I prefer the quarter drawer system. It’s also simple and much stronger. First time on your channel, I’ll check your other videos
Raul, I agree; however, your lesson might have been more appropriate via a confidential comment. Great video and very useful information. Thank you, sir.
Power feeder link, please! May see about getting one for work. Some of the frames I dado are pretty long and or awkward. Plus if they have a bow in them, it makes the dado height inconsistent at times, as hardwoods are hard to force down in the middle of a dado pass.
nice job but rool up those sleeves or take the hoodie off! coming close to the blade Dude!
Do you think this would be strong enough for an 80 lb. Fridge for a van?
When you point something out – STOP – so we can see what you are talking about. This is not an action film
Nice repeatable process. Any concerns about the bottom coming lose over time especially for drawers that will hold heavy items?
I only ever make it as far as the huge workshop, table-saw, router .. in these videos.
I would say this woujld be easy if you had a shop like yours. I do not. Feels bad man.
Good job
Greetings from Indonesian carpenters
Excellent Video!! Thanks!
I live in an apartment, no garage no backyard 🙁 and I would like to build some drawers
What drawer slides are you using?
Pre finished plywood? Dose your wood come lacquered from factory ours is bare veneer so guessing no dados needed?
I see you have a Kreg Forman pocket hole machine. I use my for drawer construction. I have yet to find a faster way to build drawers and I have also yet to have a call back on a drawer I have built this way. As a bonus, no staples or nails showing on the sides at all.
Just a thought. Keep up the great videos!
If I send you a darwer scan you replicate it ? I don’t have the equipment, infrastructure or the time .
hi,,.I made a watching your video. Thank you for being an inspiration to me.
Great video!
So what happens when you’re adding a drawer front.
After re doing the custom sized oversized cabinet doors and building new drawers in old warped cabinets with finished plywood and ball bearing drawer slides using a bunch of clamps, idriver,hand pull saw, skilsaw and my best balancing techniques, I am watching the "how it’s made " human machine here using these tools that take every headache out of the process and wow. I mean the dados the jig the squared even pressure cuts.. I really appreciate this specific info on proper tools for the job. The cost of not using the tools is much higher in terms of adjustments, difficulty on install, tension on parts and time cleaning up. Now all I have to do is sell a vehicle or something and I can step my game up! Thanks for the graphic visualizations mid video too.. good production. Cheers!
I checked your ‘sites’ but could not find the answer. I too use a 23g PIN NAILER but I get a lot of jamming. I’ve checked the lubrication, deburred the pin side of the faceplate, adjusted faceplate screws, modified air pressure setting up/down. Basically everything I can think of and dealer recommended. Question for you is… what brand of pin nail supplies do you use?
Nice to see Peter Sagan has skills other than cycling 👍😉
