Elevate Your Drawer-Building Skills

Quick run through of our shop cutting, routing, and assembling dove tail drawers. How we started as a kitchen manufacturer to make drawers and what is involved in making drawers now after the upgrade. we show the use of the Grizley dove tail machine and how we sped things up with the use of a wide belt sander and putting everything at one place to quickly assemble the dove tail drawers.

That wide belt sander runs so smooth! Very cool watching the process. I will be showing this video to the president of your fan club tomorrow! 😂

That is a slick system for making production drawers. At just shy of $4600 the G0611X is really only suitable for a shop that produces a great deal of cabinets needing drawers. Not for your hobbyist/part-time woodworker. Don't get me wrong, I'd love to have deep pockets and a production level shop making cabinets. The video is great. You showed the Rockler dovetail jig, but didn't show the process of making the dovetails. I'd like to have seen that for a better comparison. Though I get that it took a day to make a day to make a kitchen worth of drawers. Im sure it's a great deal faster with the Grizzly Dovetail machine. How long does it take to make a kitchen worth of drawers now? Thanks for sharing. Something to aspire to.

We did not show using the Rockler dovetail jig because we no longer have the router set up to make them that way. With the grizzly machine we can now make a drawer in under 5 minutes each so a kitchen now is done in 2 hours tops. Thanks for watching I will be showing more tips for new woodworkers. I started in my 2 stall garage so I know what it’s like to start small!

Trevor need to let the blade stop before letting the arm swing free

That’s a great tip. I will let him know. How do you make drawers? Are you looking to upgrade?

[@JJHoffmanwoodcrafts]

I’m not running a big shop or anything. I’m mostly not making furniture yet either. I will keep this in mind though. I do love a dovetail!
