[@timoteoharvey]

There are three categories within this concept: transparent, translucent and opaque. Transparent means clear. Light goes through it and you can see clearly through it. Translucent means means light goes through it but you can't see clearly through it. Opaque means light does not go through it. The glass he has here is translucent.

This neophyte woodworker has learned so much watching these videos. Thank you for doing these, Jason.

[@radekzgarba4052]

This is a valuable addition to my woodwork collection kzbin.infoUgkxbnOKZBE4evMO5V2vroHeCjq6d_MV6wJO I still will rate this woodwork plan as the best in my reference library. It always seem to stand out from the rest whenever you go through the library. This is a masterpiece.

I love projects that include the "when my kids break them" thought process. This is my life. :)

[@MrAfterhours]

Simple, elegant, minimalistic..... what more could one want? Love the technique.

[@andrewlomac-macnair7971]

An excellent (and typically humorous) video. It is incredibly informative, especially with all the links posted below. My project is somewhat complicated by using beveled glass panes, but the adjustments are easy enough. Thanks so much.

[@laurahagfors9646]

I just found your site. Love love love your videos. Love the dry sense of humor. The only issue is your videos are addictive and now I am binge watching them. Thank you for all the great tips and how to videos.

[@johnurtu7844]

Thanks!

[@mattedwards4533]

I am retired and still miss woodworking. If I were in bussiness now I would try to hire you! Your attention to detail earns my respect. I am not crazy about using clips to hold the pane of glass but there is nothing wrong with clips. I am kind of like you a little particular. LOL!

[@bryanterwilliger8598]

More into metal work and turning wrenches, however I used your videos to make the wife a couple cabinet doors in the kitchen. Man I'm hooked, I think I've just found a new hobby that will hopefully lead to some extra$ in a couple years.

[@floydsimpkins6858]

I am an absolute novice at woodworking in general and cabinet making in particular so I really appreciate your guidance and advice. I am just following you - one step at a time. Thanks again!

[@beckytobey2984]

Very entertaining, you have a great sense of humor, your woodworking skills are impressive, but all your tools and machinery is fantastic, nice shop.

Ur awesome. Turned out very unique and beautiful. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work my friend. Can't wait to see ur next videos. Keep making. God Bless.

[@donaldmacmillan9790]

Great video. I like the idea to use one of the other doors to guide the chisel. It should save a lot of time and headaches.

Using the other door frame to make square corners on the rebate is a great one. Thank you for sharing.

I’ve never had very good luck getting everything to line up using the Dowling jig!

[@tHekrack23]

I love your work man. And when i see you doing math with inches and whateverth of a quarter of an inch im so glad we have mm

[@timdennis2193]

Totally agree..inches one sixteenth.. what the... mm please any day of the week

[@chriscasey7113]

I’ve used both. And there’s no difference once you’re accustomed to it.

[@TheBluealan2000]

I have used both and metric makes adding and subtracting simpler for me. But use what you like best as long as you're making things it's all good.

[@jeanchapman1301]

True, if I didn’t grow up with it, I wouldn’t want to use it. But as others said, it’s not an issue after you get accustomed to it (unless you are bad at fractions). And, I find the larger size of units like Inch or Foot to be more convenient sometimes.

[@kellyb7321]

I've grown up using American and switched to Metric a few years ago. So much easier to work with and my projects end up having better quality.

[@futureman21]

Bro, you put so much details into your work. It's awesome

[@jnewmy14]

Great video. I've wanted to do cabinet doors with glass but was hesitant, you made it look easier than I thought it might be, now I'm gonna give it a go. Keep it up!

3:06 haha he's so adorable!! (when he's not smashing a truck through your glass doors)

[@robertschmidt6383]

Followed pretty much what you were doing. I had to step it up a level. Customer wanted a profile cut on the inside edge like a raised panel door. Needed to make some methods changes but instead of glass, we were installing mirrors. Thus it's a medicine cabinet. Used the same hinges as you. It turned out ok. This was my first time making this style door also. Just worked my way through it and zing...bang.....boom. Doors are done. Lol

[@MrNauticalcherry]

Exactly what I needed! Making a bed for my DD and wanted the front of her bed to have plexiglass windows she can see through to watch movies, and this is just the way I want to do it!!

Nice work! Careful with your sleeves when using a jointer.

[@elizabethmccready]

Any time I need a laugh and want to learn more about woodworking, I come to your channel! Love your videos!

[@coreyg7255]

Nicely done, I like your process. I have some reeded glass doors in my kitchen, in cabinets I built about 14 years ago. I had the local glass shop install the glass, and they gently glued it in with some clear goop of some kind. Clips might have been nice, but so far so good. BTW, I have built many cabinet doors either with tongue and groove, or with biscuits. Both ways worked just fine. A domino joiner would be great in a production shop, though.

[@brady_bauer2518]

Great video! Now I feel like doing some woodworking this weekend!

[@susanarios740]

Hi this is Jose Rios I’m from Reno and I love everything you do because your very organized

[@steveherzing6596]

Great video! Thanks for showing both ways of doing it. That really helps beginners see the savings when you have the optimal tool...

[@silversteeler99]

Great video. Thanks for letting me know that dowel jigs exist. I would prefer this method over using a pocket-hole jig. Looks better, and this technique was used by early furniture makers, probably going back to medieval times. Ahhhh, those were the days.

[@MrVukovic]

Love the attention to detail it really does matter. Good work! Jealous of your workshop

[@jacobeaton4042]

So glad you posted this when you did because I’m making glass cabinet doors for my TV stand today and tomorrow

[@AlexPrivett]

I have always done my cabinet doors at 2 inch. I use a 2 inch faceframe, and a 3 inch stile where its between 2 doors. This is specifically with a 1/2 overlay, once its all together, it gives me a 2 inch reveal everywhere.

[@sisha2909]

Thank you. I've watched a few like this but yours made sense. I'm off to Bunnings for timber.

[@mikemonks6369]

I'd like to take you up on that bet, as you marked the dowel set with numbers 1-4, unlike the Domino set. Love your vids!

[@csimet]

This is exactly what I was looking for to build a set of faux doors above my cooktop and across the opening above my sink, to match the doors I'm making for the rest of the kitchen. Tx! The link to the glass vendor was also super helpful... they provide samples you can get for pretty low cost.

[@petercoffey7980]

I’m getting ready to start some doors with glass and doing research for it, then your video popped up...perfect!! So enjoy your channel!

[@ruzologic7712]

So far I love the laying out of the milled to size on the table as just the right touch to think about whats going on!

[@kellyb7321]

Great video as always. Thank you for explaining everything in a step by step way and not skipping anything. Educational and entertaining at the same time.

[@charlieodom9107]

With my dowel jig, I line up the edge of the jig with the edge of the board and it comes out perfect with no measuring needed. That would speed up the doweling method a bit. It is still slower than the domino, but I don't have over a grand for a Festool!

[@photog1529]

I like the idea of using another door frame to square up the chisel cuts. Embarrassed to say I had never thought of that before.

[@qodesmith520]

Are you going to do a video on painting them? I'd love to see how to get smooth factory-like finishes on these :)

[@Bourbonmoth]

Yes 👍🏻

[@befmx31]

@10:50 when you are checking for square, how would you go about correcting it if it was out of square? Would you reposition the clamps and then clamp another from corner to corner on the long angle or is there a better way? Thanks.

[@davesatosky5840]

the right way to do this is to build your door oversized 1/16 in length and width, the final step is called "lipping" which is essentially just sizing the door. you can use a big edge sander, i use a shaper personally, or even the table saw... the point is the extra 1/16 can be removed strategically if you find your doors not quite square.. so you can push the a side a little harder on the edge sander and leave the opposing corner alone and this will effectively square up the door... if your joinery is square and your rails and stiles are the exact same length its actually kind of difficult to assemble a cope and stick door out of square

[@alanr745]

When I have had to build doors, I will add a clamp perpendicular to the first two clamps and tighten it until the door frame is square. It rarely takes much pressure as long as I am careful with the first two clamps and have square crosscuts on the rails.

We love your videos. Thanks for the instruction and entertainment, seriously, can't stand dry woodworking videos. I am doing a glass door this weekend for a craft station for my wife, so timing is of your drop is perfect. I wasn't sure how to to put the frame together. I've done floating panel and they came out good. Question, why use the handheld router and not the router table? Thanks.

So many nuggets of knowledge! Where did you learn woodworking?

Yo my dude. This is a great way to make simple shaker doors. Anyone can watch this and be able to build them. I like the simplicity of how you teach. Most of the guys on here make it complex. I am a cabinet maker. I love to learn different techniques. Mostly we 45 the corners to avoid end grain but if they are being painted I guess that wont matter. Keep it up bro, I look forward to the videos. 🔥🔥

[@rwe2156]

[@Kenfitzpat]

I know this is probably heresy but have you ever thought about using a corner chisel that you slide in tap and voila you have a square corner. I really do enjoy your videos very much and look for the next one when I finish the current. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

[@wilsmith2907]

As always, awesome video and presentation. The only thing I enjoy more than watching your videos is actually making things... well, my wife, dog ...just in case my wife or dog read this. One question, the last time I made doors with glass panels, I used the dado method with little rubber balls to hold them in place. I guess the advantage to your way is if the glass breaks, it's easy to replace. Any thoughts on one over the other? Thanks

We have used tiny hard wood biscuits as screw down clips in some of our work.

[@jayemporia4516]

Thankyou for this vid! I have solid cabinet doors that i want to convert to glass centers. Your video helped a bunch! Now, if only you could bring in some warmer weather si I can paint..that would be nice!

[@seanbrotherton542]

You are my go to person when looking for a "How to..." demonstration. Which Domino do you suggest if you are only buying one to start with? I dont know the model numbers but I know there's a small and a large. I'm a beginner as far as my business goes but already see the time loss not having certain tools. Not a fan of Festool prices but the Domino is a game changer both for speed and quality of your build.

[@brianhaber7382]

Fantastic video as always. Timely too as I've got a bathroom cabinet project that I want to put frosted glass doors on. This seems like the perfect way to get them done.

[@georgevalenzuela2489]

Nicely done, great job!

[@aidennymes6335]

you could also take a forstner bit with the same diameter and drill out the corners to the same depth. this might not look as clean but is faster.

[@stephandevriesere3667]

Exactly the way i do it with a tinny difference, instead of glass i use plexiglas. It's is simple to secure them with a few screws and it will not break as easy as real glass. When installed and ready, you will not see the difference. Ir's also a bit cheaper. I use it a lot for my terrarium sliding doors, it works and looks perfect (even without a frame). Only downside is that you need to be a bit more careful when cleaning the windows so you wont scratch them. If done properly you can install pretty big windows without any problems.
