This is really nice work. Good eye too. Love the result.
How did you cut the arch? The human eye is very good at picking out flaws in something like that if you try to free hand it.
Am try to learn how to make shelf in my shop. What material are needed to do so. Any help....
This guy sounds like Carl Sagan teaching woodworking lol I’m here for it 😂 great video!
As a ministry of magic certified dork I really appreciate how conscious you are of muggle tool work. Subscribed.
Hi There, When they say to add 10% reducer/water to One gallon of paint, is that 10% equivalent to a 12 oz on the measuring cup? Thank you in advance.
Nobody is nailing these by hand
How do you have time to spend 4 hours to case a door.
Hahahahaha the tray of shitty moldings lol
Love the logo on the door. Great organization. I really need to do this.
Bullshit you cannot use it on any power point because the attachment two pin plug won’t take the wait and only if you have a 15 amp plug in your wall it might work
What degree angle do you have your tablesaw fence to create that ogee?
Hello! Quick question...does it make a difference if the wood is pre-primed? My Miter Saw smokes a bit when i cut a 1/2 board. I've tried different blades and even exchanged the miter saw to make sure I didn't get a defective one. it still burns the wood and smokes
“Fixed the nool post!” Classic Christmas Vacation.
but mines a brand new saw blade and it was smoking on first attempt lol it was only pallet wood as well, any ideas? thanks!"
Very interesting.
A very sincere thank-you! Your instructions were perfect! I am an older lady and wasn't sure I could take this project on. Thanks to your clear explanations, I shortened the legs on a table perfectly! Blessings to you for sharing your expertise!😇
Hi I enjoyed this video and I would like to get the dimensions or plans for this cabinet please, thank you
Good techniques clearly demonstrated. Audience just use an ogre router bit!!!
I used nearly identical dimensions, but used 1/4" ply to give horizontal grain to the backing. Pieces joined with Kreg joints rather than gluing with inner moulding attached with a pin nailer. Entire assembly pneumatically nailed to the wall. This makes removal trivial if some later owner decides to change the look
👋 are you staying in South Africa staying in Pretoria? I need to suprise my son with a new 3//4 pull-out bed with headboard. I'll appreciate your response
Prepared to pay +- R4000..00 for the frame
I got smoke and a slow cut and it set the alarms off. I had gotten the blade wrong way round ! Look for the arrows on the blade..that is the way the teeth should be facing
Me too I had it wrong way round... I was tired and she was chewing my back leg off..
Hi, how would I add this to a curved staircase? Thanks
Norm Abram would approve!! <3
good jig
As a woodworking hobbiest, I can appreciate the small work shop. In May of 2023 I suffered a stroke. I am now making over my small shop and the shave horse is a welcome piece. Two years ago I built a vise less work bench and bought metal hold downs that will do the job just fine. Thank you for this easy to build project that will be used for many years. Also, thank you for the videos you put out. I've learned many things over the years watching your work.
A couple years ago I tried getting into wood working and spent a lot of time and money on various projects that all failed. I couldn’t get anything straight or square. After watching this video I made 2 identical and perfectly square cabinets and couldn’t be more proud. Thanks for the simple and effective instructions 👍🏼
That's awesome! I'm so happy for you! Thanks for sharing that!
@@HomeImprovementWoodworking thanks for sharing your knowledge!
excellent !!
Thank you! Cheers!
An an indoor environmentalist, I appreciate your low-toxin approach! Curious if you’ve ever heard of AFM paint? They are the best for non-toxic paints and sealers. I’d love to hear what you typically like to use.
Thank you.
You're welcome!
How did you get front baluster with shorter mid section than the longer one at the back of the tread? Make them your self or order them that way so that the bottom squares line up and the top squares line up with the handrail?
omg eww you the closed stairs
Some great methods. Thank you
You are welcome!
Thanks so much for this. That door cap is exactly what I need!
Glad I could help! Scott
Very Nice !!!!
Thank you very much!
Thanks for this video and thanks for the link to the Router Bit! Both are going to make my project a lot easier.
Glad I could help!
Taught me some great information thank you😂
Glad to help
Love it.,.. want to make a small tall cabinet for snacks...😂
You can do it!
Does this work on a real leg? Asking for myself please
Great video 👍
Glad you enjoyed it
A think I much prefer a jig with chair upright and just bring the saw across the top of the jig for almost exact uniform leg height. Use the cut legs to replace the height of the cut legs plus a very thin shim to simulate the cutout thickness while you work around to each leg. Add a chamfer to the cut edges.
First time viewer, really good video! I have to figure out how to make mine so that I can remove it for clearance when a large piece of furniture needs to get into the basement. It is going to be fun... hmm. It is a house I am just finishing up to sell too so I don't want to put a ton of time into it as the market is ready right now.
When you built the first cabinet I thought “damn I wanted to know how to hide the nailers!”, and then you went and showed how 😅 Thank you for this video! Very helpful! I will be installing French cleats instead of nailers to hang my cabinets :) hiding so they sit flush with the wall
Quality video and excellent instructions. Thanks!
Thanks for the tutorial!
Great video tutorial!!
Thank You for posting this
Excellent video!
Hi. Do you have recommendations for a non-voc paint? Which one did you use?
Very cool. I like the subtractive/additive concept and adaptions. Hiding the joints is inspired. Off to the shop to practice that. Thanks for sharing.
