Easy Three Day Build || Making Wooden Lockers

[@brianmowers307]

I just realized that you have become my adult version of Saturday morning cartoons. Thanks for all the great, entertaining content!

[@tpsooner7816]

Hahahaha

[@itsdaroc11]

This is the greatest adult realization ever.

[@russianbear2]

I know. It just downed on me as well. 😂

[@korycoster3586]

Oh my God. He really has. Like a practical Wilie Coyote

[@diamondperidot]

I agree with this post.

[@steveng8314]

Now that you're cabinets really look so good you need to get rid of those stand-up metal lockers next to them and make matching standup lockers to compliment them.

[@christopherwilson2382]

Very nice hidden dig at the Magnolia Network!

[@tpsooner7816]

This video really highlighted the amount of effort it takes to build furniture properly by taking great care to dry fit everything many times over! Great work, as always!

[@donniep2822]

I really like the design on the bench. Now, you should absolutely replace the lockers with a design matching the bench. Love your channel.

[@eclipse145mph]

This is what I was thinking

[@vjosullivan]

And then build new gym equipment to match the lockers.

[@thezfunk]

@@vjosullivanThen build a new house to match the gym equipment.

[@RaffBuilding]

I kind of like the old-school metal lockers.

[@JeremyDurham83]

All of your videos are so much fun! And my wife got me a Cameo from you for Valentine's day... you are top notch, sir! :)

[@charliebrown1828]

That choice of wood and style is spot on. Truly gifted pro.

[@debandmike3380]

what impresses me most isn't your talent at building furniture but the materials you always seem to get to make the perfect furniture. You never complain about warps or bows or crappy wood. Starting with perfection helps to create perfection. How many people have a giant piece of perfect quartersawn white oak just sitting around their workshop for years.

[@sethhamilton5824]

He joints and planes his hardwoods, that gets them pretty perfect. He isn’t working with slabs. He also gets his sheet goods from a cabinet supplier, which immediately makes it better than box store wood, and ironically it isn’t much more expensive. He gets his hardwood from a supplier, kiln dried and rough. He can pick the pile for what he wants, and again, it isn’t a consumer location so their products are usually priced well with better choice. Interestingly, most of these sorts of places will let anyone start a cash account if you are willing to drive a little further.

[@DaddyBooneDon]

Yeah lol, and the part where he planed that gorgeous wood down to 1/4-inch thickness... that put me over the edge. Funny guy

[@sethhamilton5824]

@@DaddyBooneDon i did 😬 when I saw that. I’ve done it on smaller bits, but I also have a giant resew bandsaw and would split it. Honestly though, in that situation I would have planed it to 3/4” or whatever the inside of the cabinet allowed and rebated the edge of the board. Thicker is often gooder. Lol.

[@RyanWattersRyanWatters]

He has a ton of impressive wood, for sure, but I still think the best part about Jason’s videos are his talent, personality, design chops, and willingness to share some amazing protips with the rest of us.

[@NOLAfugee]

​@@RyanWattersRyanWattersMaybe he just wants to know how to find good wood. Better ingredients make for better food, and such.

[@rweems5796]

Love it. BUT, with the qtr sawn WHITE oak, I wish you’d gone with more of a mission-oak type finish, less red, more toward gray. Now, that would have been spectacular! 🧚🏼‍♀️

[@chrisl9813]

Hope you have enough white oak "laying" around the shop to make the matching vertical locker. Great build as always.....

[@patrickwelch1889]

guy has 100 bdft of the nicest oak ive ever seen just lying around

[@TheHuizenre]

One of your best builds, probably the best. The door pulls make it totally excellent.

[@steveng8314]

Your craftsmanship is superb.

[@garyjsu]

Great work. Jimmy would be impressed.

[@scottbennington2936]

Looks good for the space. The metal standing locker needs to match now! :)

[@mikec8451]

Very nice project 👍 - i may would replace that metal locker with also a wooden gymmy looking one and have a follow up project 😁

[@TranscendFurnitureGallery]

I friggin love this. Wow.

[@justincowdell5787]

Love the way you make something sound so hard but when you look at the way you do it you make it look so simple. This Sir is a beautiful piece of "gym" furniture, please keep up the great work. Im glad to see im not the only 'sad' person who looks forward to Bourbon Moth time on Saturday 😊

[@jakeriff95]

You should make a frame for the tv!! If I'm not wrong that's a Samsung Frame TV? Would be a cool project to see what you come up with instead of the frames samsung sells.

[@tedpuckett2779]

Very nice! Decided to put feet on the bottom? With a shop space that wasn’t originally made to be a shop I’ve come to appreciate adjustable feet on rarely moving shop cabinets are a must.

[@LuckyArmpit]

I saw you hide that birch ply though!

[@briannelson4122]

Quarter sawn white oak has such a nice look to it. I think the reason 80's era oak furniture looks so dated is because they used flat sawn more often than not and it's usually red oak too. The grain on flat sawn just isn't too nice looking (I have an old tv console like I'm describing). Cool build!

[@IanCazabat]

Man, I love your commentary! Another great video.

[@BrandynMakes]

The furniture builds are just the absolute best.

[@ronaldnayman4841]

Looks great. At first I thought this is going to be a long boring video but it was great and I learned a few things. Love the commentary.😊😊😊

[@myzanaplays]

That bench is beautiful

[@cherylgooden7073]

❤ my husband and I are so excited and amazed at your beautiful work and how you show it! Love seeing the boss ! Aka your amazing son! Keep up the wonderful information! ☕️🤗🩵❤️Those who have nothing better to do with their lives get a life!

[@167curly]

Great design, Jason!

[@gregmize01]

The Rounded Rabbit would be a cool name for a Blues/Rock bar!

[@usa-earth]

Spaceballs.... Ludicrous speed... Great build Jason!

[@jewdd1989]

This turned out beautiful! Very old school “gym” or “Jim” like lol! Love the integrated handles that I feel like I’ve seen on the old wooden furniture you find in a school locker room or storage rm.

[@carolewarner101]

Wow Jason, I really love that piece! All the little touches; making all the doors out of the one board for continuous grain, basically using all solid wood, the holes in the doors and even the carriage bolts, really make it such a sweet addition to your "gym" er...TV, snack, beer drinking, drooling room! 😂 I especially love the simple pull handles you made for the doors. They impressed me so much I'm considering putting ones just like them on my kitchen drawers and cabinets. We're building our retirement home and it's a farm homestead (here in the Willamette Valley no less!), so something clean yet rustic like that really appeals to me. Do you think that's a good or a bad idea for drawers and cabinets in a kitchen that will get daily use like that, and why? Many thanks!

[@andrewjonas5523]

Kreg may have pocket hole jigs and other nifty plastic do thingys. BUT!!!! Jason has a combination Craig automatic sander and finisher. Take that 720pro!!!!!!! Hahaha

[@embergrit2305]

The stainless steel bolts on top was a great idea. Fits the theme very well.

[@terekschultz1230]

This is so cool. Good choice on the carriage bolts.

[@jasonloftis6318]

Great-looking work! Those stainless steel feet will also help the chamfers on the bottoms of the legs in avoiding chip-out when scooting it across the floor. :)

[@jamescrisafulli2140]

Great piece of jimmy furniture. I love the way it turned out. I thought about making one for myself, but I don't have a fake workout room to put it in. Love it!

[@cpl_0503]

I think my favorite feature was your design for the Door Pulls. They are clever and match the theme perfectly. Thanks for letting us watch. It almost makes me think I could tackle that project.... naahh.... I'll watch and drink coffee. It increases my survival probability.

[@dannielfriedrichsen7226]

Absolutely nailed the design/character of the piece. Very cool. I almost wish I had a home gym or even worked out just so I could build one.

[@minutemark]

Your Uncle Dan is a smart man.

[@robertanderson2223]

I had to laugh when you talked about assembling and disassembling the furniture. I design and built a liquid cart out of Cherry for my daughters new apartment (upon request). I did dry fits and checks at least 20x. I was amazed that with the use of mortise and tenons and careful planning, the piece went together very well (everything was at 90deg and seamless) and was extremely satisfying to build. All the slats floated in their snug little grooves and were pre-stained and blue taped with care. I also asked one neighbor to help turn down the cylindrical handle because he had a lather and a second neighbor to cut the mortises because he had a mortiser. This lead to me helping them because I had the large band saw or Engineering/Design ability. It was great fun. I have lived next to these guys for over 25 years and we found a new connection which was so cool.

[@robertkurilla7859]

It’s a very nice piece of furniture for a gym. I love the look of it, and I love your videos, watching a perfectionist at work.

[@Angelina-rx4sp]

For me, this is the most beautiful and aesthetic piece of furniture you have shown on YT so far! just wow!

[@daddyjoemakesit1412]

I really loved this one, it be a great piece for a entrance hall for my wife and daughter getting ready go out store shoes and stuff Oh and mine, love it. thank you

[@cosmicbrambleclawv2]

The carriage bolt segment got me 😂 I was mid sentence saying it actually would look pretty slick woth the bolts when you said not to call you crazy 😂

[@jvarblaze7495]

By far the best gym furniture build of the year!!!!!

[@kf7bws]

I love your videos, you are well skilled, entertaining and we live about twenty five miles apart. Stylistically we are very much alike.

[@resiliencyisrough]

I think the carriage bolts were an amazing idea. Really ties it all together.

[@scottgaree7667]

Like a good rug.

[@resiliencyisrough]

@@scottgaree7667 Clearly you’re not a golfer. Lol.

[@bobbg9041]

Nice. One change you could have done Electronics need air flow to dissipate heat so the bottom could just be 1x1 slats set in an equal distance apart making sure to land on equipment feet. You really don't need to open the doors to adjust anything if you use hidden IR blasters you could put in one of the holes this would alow you to use your remote control. With an open bottom no need to cut holes in the back wires could come up under. Now to figure out how to place speakers for a 9.1 channel home audio vedio system and place a sub in one of the doors aimed at the back wall. Or down. Long slat cut holes would be more correct for the time period . With a brass mesh cloth over the back of the door. Looks even better on a dark wood color. Yours looks really good, just different ideas. The Key is don't ask the wife she's going to love anything you set in frt of her you have the creative power to make what you like the idea of. Blow her mind!

[@phylliscage]

Beautiful precision made bench.

[@JayCreatesWoodworking]

What an awesome build! 😀

[@feelthepayne88]

This actually comes at a very convenient time for me. I'm building a new entertainment center for my wife and it's actually going to be basically very similar to this and I've been wrestling in my brain about the order of operations and how to build the frame. This answers many questions! 😁👍

[@Magicmike12345]

Another very nice build Jason. I would recommend a CNC . It is a bit of a learning curve. But well worth it. 😊

[@KingofFools]

That turned out super nice!

[@w4fej]

I really, really liked that build !! Simple but elegant !! I'd love to hang around your back pocket and learn the patience you have to take it slow and precise in every operation !! Great video and looking forward to more content. Well done brother !!

[@no.3gardenoffeedin950]

Absolutely love this, one of my favourite builds of yours 👍🏾 ps. I'm in agreement with the other guy who said you should make matching lockers 😉

[@lechatbotte.]

The attention to the little details sells the look. Those human clamps yikes they just don’t hold up well but they’re always available. Gotta love Craig a professional sander/ finisher of all things bourbon moth.

[@mitchellbernstein42]

Excellent attention to detail. Great work.

[@kevinronald4137]

I actually think this seat is one of your better builds. The simple design is of course not simple but your story telling enabled a clear understanding of your thought process and construction. Well done.

[@SarahHorner]

It’s such a beautiful piece of furniture. I want exactly this in my hallway instead of a pile of shoes.

[@richardkelleher1711]

Turned out beautiful. Thanks for sharing.

[@KrazeeKraftZ]

Awesome build, very appropriate "gymmy" look! Well done.

[@jackfntwist]

That came out so nice, and it will get better with age. You're leaving your son great heirlooms. I love oak!

[@bjsmithart]

Looks great! Glad you didn’t use cotton white on the white oak.

[@marymigliore3396]

[@donnygrahambuilds]

Thats a beautiful piece man - the handle design was a really nice touch!

[@cdibreaks]

This is literally the exact plan I’ve been needing! Thank you!

[@bmbdr529]

I don't have a gym. I also don't have space for a bench. But I need this bench! So beautiful.

[@chriscron5253]

Nice work! A unique one-of-a-kind design. High quality too!!

[@TheoGermal]

What an awesome piece of furniture. I wish I had the talent to do this kind of work.

[@robertkerby2581]

I really enjoyed this locker build project! Well done!

[@1195mmg]

This is exactly what I needed! Came up with a very similar build idea for an entertainment unit and having actual guidance on order of operations and important considerations is going to make it so much easier. Thank you!

[@keithnp51]

Thisis a very cool build and the white oak makes it even better (and very expensive). I have the smaller domino joiner and will say that your ability to accurately place a domino in the absolute dead center of your posts is amazing. You seem to be able to do it "free hand", that is without benefit of a jig. When I did that task I built a temporary jig to hold the posts absolutely square in two planes, up and down and side to side. I use a 20 gauge nailer to assemble the jig, driving the nail only about 1/4 to 1/2 inch into the bench top, making removal easy. This allows me to apply a lot of pressure to the joiner to insure a square mortise. Also, when the joiner is running, it wants to shake, and requires a very firm grip. It looked like you were pushing yours with your abdomen! Do not do that if you want a mortise that is square! Just my thoughts. I don't drink bourbon, but would love to sip an IPA with you one day!

[@jimrosson6702]

The bench turned out amazing all the little details you add in to make it look old time gymie work perfect. Great job

[@richardwhite4277]
