How to Build a Super Stylish Custom Mirror Cabinet - Bathroom Now Complete

Marking Dart: paskmakes.com/the-dart-now-live/
The bathroom has been a lot of work and I'm super happy that it's don. Now I can get on with some video projects. I did get a few videos out of it but there was a lot of work other than just those projects. Anyway we all love the bathroom but now we need to keep going in the rest of the house.
As always I'm happy to answer any questions.

My ongoing admiration of this man's attitude and genius really wasn't so hard and took no time at all ❤😂

[@PaskMakes]

Thanks Boris! The bathroom as whole took plenty of time and it's actually been a struggle to get it done and find the time to make videos. Some tasks in there took no time at all and I usually mention those when they surprise me that they don't take longer. :)

[@RobMods]

A master-class as always. So many little things, like stainless fasteners, vertical stripes of mirror glue for air flow, flooring varnish for durability, your clever jigs for ripping 45s and for placing the final cab. All the little tips that you see in these videos are priceless. Great stuff...

[@PaskMakes]

Thanks very much Rob - glad there were some handy tips in there! :)

[@CallumRepairs]

Every video of yours, without fail, is nothing short of superb! Your work is simply second to none. Your ability to persevere through the mistakes and always find a way to solve problems is admirable!

[@MAGAMAN]

That bathroom looks like it comes from the time when Bob Hope movies stopped being funny. I don't care for the look of it, but the craftsmanship is top notch.

[@GuiltyMalice]

The vanity, sink and vanity mirror cabinet all look amazing. The bathroom looks amazing. Very impressive work as usual. Thanks for sharing, your work is always an inspiration.

[@georgecunningham9175]

I've said it before, and I'll say it again - your design elements are fantastic - well within the bounds of contemporary aesthetic, but without the trendy elements...................timeless in their simplicity, and only outdone by your superb craftsmanship. Brilliant!

[@PaskMakes]

Thanks very much George - Glad you like it! :)

[@jonathanm9436]

Well said. My thoughts exactly - enduring style.

[@davepost7675]

You are not alone. I've purchased complete products just to get a specific part from it as well. Oftentimes, it is cheaper to buy the whole product than to have it made.

[@leavitodeaver]

"Gympie messmate" is the most Australian slur I've heard to date, well done

[@negotiableaffections]

"I'll smooth it out with an 80grit disk..." I love that phrase, and I shall be cheek-ing people with the Q. "Did you smooth this with 80 grit?" Beautiful cabinet, vanity and bathroom Neil, nice work.

[@andrejohnson6731]

1:12 Gympie Messmate has to be the most Aussie sounding wood in the world 😂 love your videos, Sir ❤

[@BiggMo]

Scrap Mirror Challenge… a new series has been born! “BTW” I received my two marking knives. Some if my Christmas shopping is done!

[@biltwellironco]

Man there's a lot of 'makers' on KZbin that show people how to do things incorrectly and take no pride in their work but I gotta say, you're a real craftsman and I appreciate how much you care about the finished product. Keep it up my guy.

[@ianvicedomini2648]

The cabinet looks fantastic Neil and the finished bathroom is equally as stunning mate. Superb video

[@PaskMakes]

Thanks very much Ian! We're all super happy with it and the kids are actually showing an interest in something I've made. :)

[@ianvicedomini2648]

@@PaskMakes that's brilliant Neil 👍🏻

[@dg50484]

Looks fantastic Neil! I learned a lesson remodeling both my bathrooms, however long you think it will take you - double it because it takes a lot longer than you think. Side note - I received my Dart. It is a work of art. What took me by surprise was how perfect the weight is. It feels really good in your hand. I'm afraid to use it because I've rarely had something this nice. Thank you!

[@PaskMakes]

Thanks very much - I totally agree, it took way longer than I thought it would. Glad you like the dart and thanks for the support, but don't be afraid to use it, that's what it's for. :)

[@Mujaki]

Adding those extra strips to the shelf edges presented an opportunity to potentially use another type of wood with a contrasting color. Still looks lovely either way!

[@puuHattu]

Nice work! All those things you made looks great! You are a real Carpenter even though you still have 10 fingers!😂 Greetings from Finland!

[@katsbreez]

Add home design to your resume because this looks fabulous!

[@asktheraccoon]

"and there it is... *we're* all super happy" ah yes, the dude that did 100% of the work and the inspector.

[@babthooka]

Great series, Neil. Everything you touch seems to turn into gold!

[@johnsrabe]

Neil, this looks great. I love building things I use everyday; it doubles the satisfaction, doesn’t it? I like all your vids but esp the household ones. And as always, thanks for showing your mistakes.

[@CallumRepairs]

I have made a few modifications the desk I'm currently sat at. I have rubbish tools and limited skill so it's certainly not (98% perfect) like Neil's projects are but yes, it's great to use something you've modified yourself!

[@damongriffith]

Chinese hospital green. My absolute favorite color! Hell yeah!

[@jamesa7506]

No nonsense, quality craftsmanship, awesome projects and a down home attitude is what makes your channel stand out miles from the rest! Plus you make great tools that we can buy too! Well done to you my friend!

[@PaskMakes]

Thanks very much James - glad you're enjoying the channel! :)

[@ewingfly]

The router guide is just genius! Thank you for that

[@Vickie-Bligh]

Wow, what a lovely bathroom. The vanity, sink, and cabinet look awesome. Kath has to be very pleased. Once again, Neil, you show that professional quality work can be filled with love. Thanks for sharing this, Mate.

[@PaskMakes]

Thanks very much Vickie! The whole family are super happy with it so I must have done something right! :)

[@michaeld_aus_b]

2:30 Thanks for the fast delivery. Your marking dart looks and performs great. And less then 3 EUR customs. Cheers from Berlin, Germany

[@HBSuccess]

Neil- recieved the marking knife last week (USA) it is spectacular, a true work of art and worth many times what you're charging IMO. Anyone who has not ordered one - do it!

[@lennyf1957]

Excellent job. 17:36 Ever notice, KZbinrs are never happy with something, they are always SUPER happy.

[@IgnazKevenaar]

Excellent way of getting the mirror shape you want without too much waste I'd say.

[@panos3051]

4:55 - what a clever simple jig!

[@davestinyworkshop]

This is a beautiful set of projects which I'm sure you will enjoy for many years to come. I have to say though, the jig-master strikes again! Your dado-routing jig is brilliant, thanks for sharing!

[@PaskMakes]

Thanks very much Dave - glad you found it helpful! :)

[@steffenschaeuf6759]

Next time try simple vegetable oil to remove glue and other sticky stuff, like from the back of the mirror. You‘d be stunned how well it works. Great furniture, was so much fun to watch building those. They came out brilliant!

[@tinkeringinthailand8147]

I just love that cupboard, great job Neil.

[@Ekumees]

liking the video before watching..this man delivers 100% of time

[@johnromberg]

17:45 "I think the projects I made... look fantastic together.". I laughed out loud at this! I think my brain got tickled because it's not often that you hear someone saying something positive about their own work, yet still, somehow, not sounding even remotely arrogant! Like, the apparent form is boasting, but in actuality, relative to the quality of the work, it's nowhere near boasting! And I found that funny!

[@naifalhazmi7942]

The cabinet looks fantastic Neil

[@jimrosson6702]

The cabinet turned out amazing the hole bathroom looks beautiful great job

[@nobuckle40]

They do look good together. Nice renovation.

[@carolinefreeman4546]

Looks great! Nicely done. When you cut out the bit for the power outlet I thought for a moment that you'd drilled into the mirror and was horrified!! Enjoy your beautiful new bathroom x

[@williamellis8993]

Great job, Neil. The whole bathroom came together really well. Bill

[@PaskMakes]

Thanks very much Bill! :)

[@liammelville8704]

a tip If you ever need a mirror for another project. I had to use one for an infinity table a few years ago. I essentially found an old mirror at a yard sale and used a local class cutting company to cut it to shape for me. My mirror was square versus rounded but maybe try checking thought next time. If i remember correctly, I bought the mirror for 5 - 10 US dollars, then for the mirror to be cut maybe 10 at most. Hope this helps

[@jonh4301]

Great job - I'm sure Mrs. P is pleased!

[@c.a.g.1977]

Wow, this cabinet really looks awesome, Neil! Together with the vanity and the sink: stunning!

[@PaskMakes]

Thank you! We're super happy with the whole project! :)

[@tcutchi]

Neil, your work holding and jigging is almost as beautiful as your work itself. Great work, everything looks fantastic together!

[@PaskMakes]

Thanks very much - Glad you enjoyed it! :)

[@BoswachtBlog]

Absolutely stunning! It's just a shame that gorgeous cabinet is pressed against a wall. I think it would look even better if it were free standing. Thank you, Pask. You've given me so much inspiration!

[@PaskMakes]

Thank you! :)

[@tomim7187]

Neil, this bathroom does not disappoint. It is really elegant and clean. Now, to do my bathroom!

[@markramsell454]

That blueish green back was a nice touch. I've never been able to get a decent finish with silicon, now I see how it's done.

[@LostWhits]

You can get euro style hinges with a shallow cup. They're designed for 13mm compact laminate. I use them on alfresco kitchens/BBQs all the time. Hettich and Hafele make them, but for some reason the Salice don't have soft close.

[@marksmith7147]

I love the portrait that you have incorporated into the corner (visible at 15:57) 😂

[@YouT-DJ]

Came out great. Very nice!

[@lisahodges8299]

No scrap heap challenge here, very generous size too. Is this where all the good tradesmen went? Birdy

[@PapaDan]

Neil never disappoints!

[@jewdd1989]

Omg omg omg!!! I’ve been waiting for this one!!! Currently I’m undergoing a bath reno too, I built my own solid hickory vanity, first time to build something more large and with bridle joints and half laps… such a stressful blast! Anyways a company wanted $1100 for a quartz vanity top that’s only 31 1/4” long… no freakin way so I’m working on a concrete form for my own white cement top. Back when looking for a medicine cabinet, I wanted the same exact modern rounded edges, inset cabinet with brass not gold, black or bronze and that was a nightmare to find what I was needing. I finally did but all along I kept thinking I should build my own and now I regret that I didn’t! Such a stunning mirror cabinet, vanity, concrete sink and the entire bathroom is gorgeous and well done 🤟🏼

[@stephendoherty1275]

Fantastic work. You are a true artisan.

[@karlwoels6978]

It`s the next beautiful project! Congratulation Neil, it looks awesome!

[@stefandreyer4658]

Looks great as always! I especially love the color scheme with the contrast of the light wood and the green linoleum. Great job! 👏

[@PaskMakes]

Thank you Stefan! I was very pleased with the laminate when I found it out, I should have thought of it from the start. :)

[@danielmorgan6877]

I got my marking guides and my plans!!! Thank you. I love the videos and I love the honesty of your work. If you make a mistake, it is ok and not the end of the world!

[@leonhingston7511]

This is easy watching. Thanks so much I'm a carpenter in New Zealand and have learnt new methods to try after watching your work. Keep up the admirable craftsmanship I love it .

[@smsucks7174]

Lovely! These type of projects are actually my favorite videos that you do . Combing your artistic skills and home/ property improvement is quite satisfying to view. 👍🏻

[@PaskMakes]

Thank you - Glad you enjoyed it! :)

[@RoxaneJ14]

Awesome job, as always !

[@MADTAS4]

Bathroom looks fantastic 👍👌

[@vfxsoup]

That’s all turned out super great mate. I hear you when you said at the end “this project has taken a long time’… they always take over your life but the end results are fantastic.

[@AlexMartinez-tu6bf]

Amazing work and outcome, great job.

[@robertbamford8266]

Very clever rounded corners and splines!

[@dariavuistiner1103]

Absolutely stunning 😍 craftsmanship at its purest! Waow waow waow

[@Mebeknob]

Love it! Only thing I would’ve changed would’ve been to make that little handle out of brass or something. Make it a fun little detail.

[@roccit]

4:09 great use of 123-block!

[@bcas008]

only 3 words...I LOVE IT 😎

[@mackellmo1083]

Looks great! Nice job!

[@zTribalstylerz]

That came out super cool! Well done pask 😁. And always with the cool tricks! I certainly would have been there trying to hold the cabinet up at the same time as trying to mark and drill the holes. *forehead slap* or just be smart like you and make a little stand for it first!

[@ShopTherapy623]

great build, as usual!

[@christophergenovese9010]

Gorgeous! Love how it all came together!

[@SteRumbelow]

Neil, that is absolutely bloomin’ fantastic. Amazing work, as always.

[@ElekTrikPurple1]

You ALWAYS make cool stuff 😎 love the bathroom. 😍

[@rodpotts2666]

As always. Great video!

[@ClearShotYoOfficial]

Iam amazed how simple your jigs are and how well they work

[@jonathanking4107]

As always, absolutely masterful work.

[@MCsCreations]

Beautiful work, Neil! The bathroom looks amazing! 😃 I really liked how you made the cabinet! Simple, but looks great!!! Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

[@PaskMakes]

Thanks very much! I'm particularly happy with how all the elements came together. :)

[@PenitentHollow]

you can save yourself the trouble of chiselling the router-bore square by stopping a little short and notching the shelves to cover the ends of the router cut. To be clear, this means that the shelf is a little longer than the dado so that it over-hangs the groove by a little bit but the notch is deeper than the over hang and covers the round end of the dado. You don't even need to be super precise with the length of the notch, as long as it's deeper than the overhanging section. I hope that makes sense and helps.

[@699hazard]

Amazing build as always Neil.

[@bobbyjackson4452]

Awesome work once again. Thank you for the video.

[@Alan2E0KVRKing]

That looks amazing!

[@fabz_studio]
