Homemade Jig Makes Cabinets Strong & Square

[@8082Speed]

Tool video gets my vote

[@dannywilsher4165]

Awesome jig, Chad!!! Matters not what video comes first, the crux of the matter is that both videos get shown!!!!

[@camillegentry1031]

Great tip! I'll add a vote for the chair video.

[@kahoycrafts]

I really like that dado jig, thanks for sharing it.

[@NewBeginningNewCreation]

Nice to see another video Chad

[@williamellis8993]

It's always good to see one of your videos again. They're very informative. I think I'd like to see the chair video first. Take care. Bill

[@bevanstuart9013]

Thank you Chad for the jig design and I am happy to hear you use the combined dado and pocket screw concept.

[@lestergrayson3049]

Thanks Chad as always good information 👍

[@lousenatore5367]

Hi, Chad, I like to see the chair design. You do a great job. Thanks.

[@deforrestkeeling5782]

As usual you've shown another great idea. Thanks Chad. Your awesome.

[@peybak]

Chad, you're a genius! Thanks for showing the tricks.

[@ChadStanton]

My wife would highly disagree with the "genius" comment, but I thank you 😅

[@johnkaczynski8719]

Great video Chad! Smart about using both options.

[@scottadams2624]

Great video, Chad. Will probably use this technique when I make some pantries soon. Also, I'd love to see that "Should you own it video" video next (as long as they are both coming!!)

[@cobberpete1]

Thanks for the jig tip Chad. I would like to see the chair Video. My wife says I'm not allowed any more tools, so should you own it would only depress me 😉

[@wb_finewoodworking]

Great idea Chad. I’ll have to give it a try sometime.

[@dougc78]

Great video thanks for sharing. I have always had trouble using my pocket hole jig and adjusting for the depth of that Dado. I guess I need to keep working on it. Regarding the videos both sound good but the chair video sounds really intriguing as I’d really like to hear your design modifications and why you would make them.

[@togetherwemake8048]

Love the jig idea love the combo idea hell I love the whole video ❤

[@PatCavanaugh1]

Great video Chad. I hadn't thought about combining the pocket holes w/the dado. But as soon as you showed it I immediately went he must be using 1" screws and realized how smart it was to combine them. And I'd like to see the chair 1st.

[@dpmeyer4867]

thanks

[@jasonoliver7881]

Good job Chad, let's get some videos on making custom casings. You know what time it is?

[@ChadStanton]

Yes I do :-)

[@samuelauclair8272]

Great tip Chad! I'm proud of you!

[@ChadStanton]

Thank you so much

[@chadwix]

Great jig that you created for routing the dados. I am kind of intrigued by the chair youu were speaking of for the next video. two thumbs up!

[@nobuckle40]

Very helpful Chad! 👍

[@laroseauxboisrosewoodwoodw8585]

Hmmm never thought of combining the pocket and dado 🤔 I don’t know witch should be shown first but i have a quenche for the chair 😬 👍🏼🇨🇦

[@BoxcarJerry]

Hi Chad nice tips in this video . The chair video sounds really interesting to me . Take care and be well.

[@douglashopkins8070]

Chair redesign please.

[@alaskankare]

Chad thanks for your videos. I'm curious, if you scored those lines you mark out for the dato, will it prevent the fuzzies?

[@TheFalconJetDriver]

Chad nice tips! I bought a set of4 router bits by Freud that are undersized for plywood item 89-650 they work really well. 1/2 shank and in sizes for 7/32, 11/32, 15/32, 23/32. I will be building shop cabinets as soon as the second mortgage goes through for the plywood. I am going to use 1/2 Baltic Birch and will make both dadoes and pocket hole using 3/4 screws. Since these will be face frame cabinets The face frame will lend support for the 1/2 ply on the shelves.

[@CarlosMorales-kk3op]

amigo ,respetos exelente explicacion

[@robertsmith1889]

Chair video please

[@afonsokreling2692]

Nice jig trick. Chair first!

[@pbj417]

I use a similar jig for alignment of the dados for fixed shelves. I like the extra support provided by the angled piece that ensures consistent 90 degree set up. The only thing I do different is that I mark out the upper position of the dado and align the jig with that. The distance between the side of the dado on the jig closest to the straight guide will not change. Because the guide is on one side only, the dado on the jig could be wider than the intended 3/4". This would happen if the router drifts away from the guide and makes the dado wider. It doesn't spoil the jig, but adds another factor to think about during layout.

[@billinfarmington5189]

Hi Chad! Chair Design.

[@mikeyeary6257]

Hi I would like to see the chair video first It looks interesting.

[@gpaw999]

Good tips 👍

[@timothyhood2827]

Chad, I'd like to see the chair design mods first. On the size of screw versus the mating of differing sized materials, I have found this issue to be a major issue as the instructions offered by the various tool designers seem to totally neglect the fact that many times one wants to join 1/2" to 3/4" AND vice versa 3/4" to 1/2" (referring to which piece has the holes and which is the receiver.) Further discussion of the correct screw selection would also be a great video. Thanks for all the great work!

[@CarlosMorales-kk3op]

exelente

[@jamesrobinson3663]

I would like to see the chair build, please.

[@steeltoe3138]

Hi, The Chair would be something I'm more interested in.

[@danielelse3914]

Go for the chair, Chad. Nice to see a post - it's been too long. 👌

[@TimTurner115]

Chair video first sir. Thank you.

[@The78bluedevils]

Let's go with, what I should own. not sold on pocket holes. glue & 18 gauge nails. glue & sanding dust putty. I can see your point of view.

[@jeffreystewart6571]

Your next video should be "Should You Own It." Thank you

[@wjphillip]

I'd like to see the chair mod first.

[@annieltitus]

If you are going to do both, i would prefer the “chair” first. Thanks for the content!!

[@rak7101]

The chair - as designed and then with your improvements r/

[@HBTwoodworking]

Let's do the chair! Thank you

[@OpekiskaWood]

Let's see the chair video please.

[@MarkMcCluney]

That looks like a version of the Reitveldt Chair (sometimes called Blue and Red, I think). I've never seen one for real but it looks horribly uncomfortable and a typical bit of 'statement' furniture. Argue with the architect as much as you like mate! Cheers Chad, another very enjoyable vid.

[@ChadStanton]

Thanks, Mark. This chair is called a Wavehill chair. But like you, I've seen similar ones.

[@dpmeyer4867]

do the chair

[@Vman7757]

Chad Tool.

[@SunnyTu-e7q]

Chair first!!!!!

[@doug.ritson]

GO BUCKEYES!! Easy sub. Chair first, but how about making it a How-to and the improvements you make along the way.

[@saadr2208]

Hi Chad , your videos have changed! there is no safety Dan, no more dancing 😔. Thanks for the tips.

[@ChadStanton]

Yes, youtube frowns on drinking and smoking. Plus I moved 3 years ago. Thanks for still watching 😁

[@GeraldJensen]

Chair!

[@tedsobocienski787]

Both, but chair first.

[@davidjanis1997]

Chair first please.

[@Pappasquatch]

I love your videos...but I also miss the old ones where you goofed off a bit and have to know what happened to "Safety Dan"....hope he is well.

[@photo78]

Chair first.

[@mikekernjr5121]

The chair first.

[@adrianmack3]

Nice jig, but it seems to me, you don't need all that "marking" you did. 1 single mark at the edge of the panel to line up the bottom of the dado on the jig is all that's necessary. The lines to outline the dado as completely not necessary, since the jig is what guides the router and the bit defines the dado width. The lines serve no purpose at all.

[@ChadStanton]

That's fair and a good point. I just like to make sure everything is exactly where I want it before I cut any wood.

[@brightnuertey1451]

🌈💯

[@brucewelty7684]

.75" is 19.05mm LARGER than 18 m and m ply

[@ChadStanton]

Ah thank you for the correction. My main point is that the jig is specific to that router and bit

[@brucewelty7684]

@@ChadStanton Further question though, how do you compensate for the Imperial vs. French dimensions? I see that your dado is not sloppy, even though it mathematically should be. Iran into that sloppiness on .50" bit vs "half inch" plywood. The 0.7mm difference sucked.

[@jonathanhowe42]

@@brucewelty7684 My guess is that he was able to source actual 3/4" depth plywood to match his router bit. That said, they also make "nominal" 3/4" plywood router bits to match the undersized stuff, so that's another way to go depending on where you get your plywood from.

[@terristroh3965]

Should you own it? first.
