DIY Shop Cabinet Build (Workshop Project)

I built these wall cabinets for my workshop to store all of my finishing supplies and help organize my new work shop. The two shop cabinets sandwich a drill charging station I made a couple weeks ago. I used full overlay hinges and installed them with the Kreg concealed hinge installation jig. This is nice tool and for under $30, it made installing the hinges super easy. I hope you like the video and consider subscribing to my channel to see more shop organization and furniture build videos. Thanks for watching!

Beautiful! Looks better than my bedroom furniture! And man, your channel has exploded in growth! Congrats!

[@TwistedWorkshop77]

Thanks! Its been a fun year making videos. I've learned a lot and have some fun projects in mind for this year

[@robertlis2704]

Nice job and for anyone that never built follow it you won't be disappointed it will be strong I'm 61 and been making cabinet for 45 years now

[@TwistedWorkshop77]

Thanks!

[@thetinywoodworkshop]

This shop is going to become the best place in the world to stay 👍

[@TwistedWorkshop77]

Thanks! I definitely think so

[@brotherbo43]

Nice video and good choice of tools (Porter Cable)

[@Lutzboater]

I like how you explain what you're doing at each step. Your videos move along nicely as you move from step to step. Nicely done.

[@TwistedWorkshop77]

Thanks for the feedback!

[@tomas6700]

The way you produce your videos reminds me of The New Yankee Workshop. Very much a feel good experience.

[@TwistedWorkshop77]

Thanks for the feedback. I loved Norm's show. I still watch reruns of it all the time for inspiration on projects and narrating a project build!

[@Poor_Mans_DIY]

very nice cabinet! We wish to build cabinets for our finishing supplies and though we could never get close to the quality of your build, it definitely gives us ideas that never crossed our mind before! Well done, sir!

[@TwistedWorkshop77]

Thanks! I've seen your work. There is no doubt you make some high quality cabinets!

[@Poor_Mans_DIY]

We are very humbled by your kind words. Thank you so very much

[@makeit5272]

Well done once again! Your new shop is coming together nicely.

[@TwistedWorkshop77]

Thanks! I am ready to start building some furniture and give the shop projects a rest but there is so much to do to get organized

[@williamellis8993]

Simple but really nice and effective. I suggest small recesses on the bottom of the adjustable shelf at the pins. That prevents it from sliding out.

[@TwistedWorkshop77]

Thanks for the feedback! And the tip for the shelf.

[@mellowfellow9]

the best take-away from this is the 'double wide' and groove matching for left and right sides... so accurate and a time saver.

[@TwistedWorkshop77]

Yea. I've made a couple 2 left or 2 right cabinets. This keeps me from getting mixed up.

[@wb_finewoodworking]

The cabinets look great. That’s something that I desperately need for my shop.

[@TwistedWorkshop77]

Thanks!

[@MakeThings]

Excellent! I wish I had space to make one...I’m all tapped out with space 😂

[@TwistedWorkshop77]

Thanks! I like your tool wall solution though

[@strohdog242]

Very nice.

[@KCostelloe]

You make it look so easy!!

[@TwistedWorkshop77]

Thanks!

[@ayoubferikha6459]

Awesome 😎

[@BuiltByChris]

Great job mate. Love the way go about your work. I'll be making cabinets for my workshop soon, and I'm going to use a few of your ideas. Well done. Keep them coming mate.

[@TwistedWorkshop77]

Thanks Chris! I watched your shop update video. I like the way you have everything set up. Great content over there on your channel!

[@BuiltByChris]

Cheers mate, really appreciate the support.

[@sumosprojects]

G’day mate, solid project with the Dado joints, I like the attention to detail of working out how much space you need in order to fit in all the products 🎥🎥🔨🔨👍👍ps us Australians are always jealous of the quality plywood you guys use lol

[@TwistedWorkshop77]

Thanks Sumo! I always stayed away from the Baltic birch because it was a little more expensive but it's so flat and easy to work with, I dont mind paying a little extra.

[@BuiltByChris]

A sheet of Baltic Birch here, costs around $210.

[@TwistedWorkshop77]

@@BuiltByChris ouch! I would have some pine cabinets if that was the case here. It cost around $50 usd here

[@TakamiWoodshop]

@@BuiltByChris $175 nzd here mate. Russian Birch is cheaper I think... It has a lower grade face on one side

[@BuiltByChris]

@@TakamiWoodshop The stuff I looked at was top grade face and back. Probably why it costs so much. There is a cheaper panel, but as you said, only 1 face is good.

[@jaykepley5238]

Nice job! Looks good!

[@TwistedWorkshop77]

Thanks!

Awesome cabinets!! I really enjoy watching your videos man!! 👍👊

[@TwistedWorkshop77]

Thanks for the support Jake! I like your content too!

[@BookofIsaiah]

Very nice!! Great video too!

[@TwistedWorkshop77]

Thank you!

[@elvishuff1267]

Well done! Nice video with great explanations along each step. Where did you get the Baltic birch plywood you used? It looked to have more plies than typical home center plywood’s and appeared nice and flat.

[@Dutchshedwoodshop]

Love it. After my workshop build series wich will be on youtube the upcoming weeks. I want to make something similar

[@TwistedWorkshop77]

Thanks! I have to check out the series. I love to watch new shop vids

[@MoscaWoodworking]

the shop is coming out great! I like the design of this cabinet. Dado stacks really make the job quicker, unfortunately we are not able to use them in Europe for "safety" reason.... the shank is too short

[@TwistedWorkshop77]

Thanks! I didn't know that about the arbors and not using dados in Europe. I guess you could do the same with a router but it is my least favorite tool. So messy and loud!

[@MoscaWoodworking]

@@TwistedWorkshop77 I hate router too 😂

Great project, but what caught my eye was your workbench. Did you design it yourself or get the plans from someone? I have the SYP sitting in my garage now to start a new workbench. My old one has a plywood top which is drooping. I would appreciate knowing if you came up with the bench (and have plans available) or who you got the plans from if you bought them. Keep up the good work. Just found your channel really enjoy the way you present your projects.

[@5redwine1]

When I got through posting this comment your video on the workbench popped up so that answers my questions. Thanks

[@TwistedWorkshop77]

Thanks for the feedback! I consulted the plans from benchcrafted for my workbench but had to adapt to using dimensional lumber. I am working on a set of plans but i haven't had much time lately. I have a couple videos that outline the workbench build you can check out. If you have any questions about the build or dimensions of the bench(or parts of the bench), let me know and I will do my best to get you the info you need.

[@TwistedWorkshop77]

Oops, just noticed your reply

[@scottiewms]

Will you be posting the plans for these and the drill charging station? These would be perfect for my workbench area.

[@TwistedWorkshop77]

I am working on some plans but it might take a while. Hopefully in the next couple months. I might work on these before a couple other projects I'm making plans for since they should be pretty easy.

[@DaveLightfoot]

Can you tell us your sanding process for plywood cabinets

[@TwistedWorkshop77]

On this project I used 150 grit on a random orbital sander then 220 grit. Then I hand sanded the edges to ease the sharp edges with a sanding block and 220 grit. Baltic birch has thick plies or veneers. If it was plywood from the home center, I would have started with 220 grit and I would avoid too much sanding with a machine since the veneer is very thin and it is easy to burn through to the layers underneath

[@SlowandExpensive]

Nice

[@TwistedWorkshop77]

Thanks. I will be referencing your videos when i go to make some base cabinets!

[@spanglaz]

Awesome video, I enjoy your channel alot!! Would you be putting out any plans for these?

[@TwistedWorkshop77]

Thanks! I am slowly working on some plans for a few of my projects. I hope to have some out in in the fall.

[@spanglaz]

@@TwistedWorkshop77 any chance you can tell how wide and long these cabinets are?

[@TwistedWorkshop77]

@@spanglaz 28" tall x 20" wide x 11" deep (then the door adds another 3/4")

@@TwistedWorkshop77 thank you!! In the next month I plan on putting doing these.. will keep you posted!
