Have you thought about making a ASMR video for the next project?

[@jebowlin3879]

@1:50 or everyones favorite, Sanding :D

[@stevestrapac3056]

Pocket hole- toe kick!

[@andyh8239]

Do you sell cabinets?

[@jeffshehan1392]

I know costs vary widely, but providing a ROUGH estimate on material costs would be super helpful when budgeting for these types of projects! When I'm deciding which of your plans to purchase, I need to know ahead of time if the overall project will be affordable. Just a suggestion, Thanks! Great work!

[@milkymakes1]

I'm glad that you show that mistakes were made. Almost every post on social media I see says "it's not perfect". Nothing is and so many so called "experts" make us feel that their work is perfect. Kudos to guys like you who show them.

[@DeathcoreDogDad]

Your videos have come such a long way, the audio, the camera motion and transitions in particular are excellent. Crazy to see KZbinrs with better quality videos than TV shows these days. Really enjoyable to watch I got an MKBHD vibe when the camera zoomed in for certain sentences for emphasis, and his videos are top notch.

[@Fixthisbuildthat]

Thanks! We've working hard to get better! Glad it's coming across

[@spacekb17]

5:58 when you're rotating the cabinet. Right side on the top horizontal piece is on the incorrect side. Appreciate you keeping content like this in to show things like this happen to the best of us.

[@odhranlynch]

What spacekb17 said lol

[@Fixthisbuildthat]

Winner 2! You got it! DM me on Instagram with a screenshot of you logged into this account on KZbin 👍

[@mitchelkeel1464]

17:46 Upper Right side middle top drawer side pocket hole in front instead of back of cabinet. Thanks for the awesome videos and content!

[@kirbyyoungs6109]

You can see the pocket whole on the back support piece on the right side. The whole is facing the front. Seen at 14:35

[@timprince731]

Top right back stretcher @ 5:58 has the pocket hole facing inside. I built your plan for the mobile wood storage chart. Very easy to follow and exactly what I needed. Thanks!

[@mmembrino]

5:58 - right side stretcher up top. I've used your plans before, they're very well done!

[@diggoran]

I can proudly say I wasn't spoiled by the comments and I spotted it in the same timestamp :)

[@sanrasuzumaki942]

Just watching the video now for the first time, was looking for this response as I paused the video in the exact same place lol

[@gcrad1]

MAN! You are not kidding about you not liking DUST! Love your setup and I will be going through a bunch of your videos!

[@dustinwelch1589]

8:44 in the video I seen the extra pocket hole but man u do great work I've watched your videos and took some of your design and made things from your inspiration u rock bubba

[@Jim_Swed60]

I saw that the pocket hole was on the inside of the right cross piece at the top. Thanks for the video I am wanting to do 2 pantry cabinets for storage.

[@CatherineSTodd]

I started doing carpentry and furniture building 40 or 50 years ago... Oh, My! What wonderful tools have come into existence since then. Now I've got to head over to your sponsor "Woodcraft." Now I know where any "extra" money I have will be going! Thanks for a most informative and fascinating video and project.

[@nantztopher1279]

8:24 there’s a mark. Great build!

[@JohnnyS37]

Yeah! That's it! Nice find!

[@FFStu771]

Top right back stretcher on the inside. Mistakes were made!! Enjoyed the video.

[@jeffforbes3772]

Top right back stretcher on the inside at approx. 8:28. Love your show!

[@stephenlamonica1836]

Your obsession over organization is inspiring! Helping me get the motivation to fix my own hot-mess of an office.

[@brandonbell8352]

I been watching for like a year and it’s given me so much drive to make some organization shelves in my garage

[@javiesaucedo7468]

I barely noticed the mistake @ 14:37 🤷‍♂️. Diggin the color and the breakdown process. Keep up the great work Brad!

[@Dose1Of1Brad]

Nice job. This is priority 2 for me after my hallway pantry cabinet & shelving build for my wife’s sanity! Thanks for the tips. Love your work and the channel.

[@fryershon]

It Never Ends, Keep Working.

[@samspade4634]

I have a confession as well; my shop isn't close to being organized yet. lol I still have a long way to go, however I know a great place to get some super nice plans (thanks to Brad) that might just be the kick in the head I need. As we are being honest, I was not able to see your rogue pocket hole, so you my friend are the #1 master (pocket hole) disguiser on KZbin in my opinion. Thanks for sharing another great video. Blessings to you.

[@jacobw446]

A great woodworker is one who can make their mistakes magically become a good feature.

[@natebolton9385]

damn that's a nice looking cabinet. Makes me want to buy a bunch more tools and build one myself

[@HighSchoolCreations]

Ahh…Blue tape …the unsung hero of the shop. I use it to temp hold diorama displays pierces during the mock up phase or when glueing xps foam together like you’ve shown with wood. Great stuff!!

[@lima_aviation4818]

right at 5:58, on the right hand side (top) support, pocket holes are facing inwards!

[@scottmorris4914]

I was using that painters to do layout lines on a counter top for cutting the hole for a sink. When I peeled the tape offer, it took some wood with it, not just one place.

[@matthewdaniel8742]

Can sort of see it in the paint shot, but 8:23 the top right cleat mount! Great build!

[@Corrow20]

What spray gun for painting are you using? Great video. Love the evolution of your videos to the content, instruction and editing ideas.

[@SoHighIFly]

I never point out other peoples mistakes, even if it was on the top horizontal piece, right side? Great job and cool spray gun.

[@Fixthisbuildthat]

Winner 3! You got it! DM me on Instagram with a screenshot of you logged into this account on KZbin 👍

[@kenjianimates]

​@@FixthisbuildthatWell, the. School bus.

[@DMProbs]

With a drawer layout that pretty I would almost want to use those push to open drawer slides instead of handles. This design is definitely going in my bookmarks!

[@r0addoctor]

Hey, Brad, time for me to get back into the shop and what better way than to take a project from your library of plans! I'm going to use this plan for my Ham Shack to store electrical supplies and tools, and then make a counter top for my radios and related electronics. If your ever looking for something to build, may I suggest a cabinet with lots of drawers maybe 3 or 4" in height for all the small parts that come in the world of electronics, Just a thought. I have built most of your shop furniture and cabinets and they all came out fantastic! Your plans and videos are awesome!!

[@denniscarreno5882]

I enjoy your segment….I am going to build my first work bench, following your built.Simple and less work…..thank you!

[@Dirtdoordave32]

Man the pocket hole drilling to the beat of the backing track was awesome!

[@ArmyVet76]

That extra Pocket hole is in the front right top for that cross brace. Mistakes do add that extra patina to every project 🤔 I do love that you add the mistakes in. Makes me feel like I’m not the only one lol

[@mb3d674]

Rear Right cross brace kzbin.info/www/bejne/m3TJZnxubrafZpI

[@chilson88]

So I take it you live in Tennessee? I seen the Tennessee cut out above the office door. Great work. I was telling the wife how I need to build something just like this for the garage

[@asoggyburger479]

Please be a mini series with office organization and custom builds for the office!

[@RichardGreco]

I can't believe after all the videos, the laughs, the tears, that you have been living like an animal. I thought I knew you. I don't know if this video is enough to repair our relationship. Part 2 better be good too.

[@BlessedLaymanNC]

You suggested the painter tape for notes. I've been using a thin masking tape for my markers for a few months now. When I set up my shop and started to build my stand for my table saw, I could barely read the pencil, but then could not sand it off. That's when I decided to use masking tape and a Sharpie marker. Now I label all my parts for projects. I also learned that if I'm, working on multiple projects to use a different color pen for each project. Masking tape is really inexpensive, but it doesn't pay your bills, LOL. Believe it or not, you are the first tuber I've seen suggest it, though.

[@1bad4g63]

Glad to see I'm not the only one with a home office space that is in shambles. May take this video as inspiration to make some built-in cabinets. Will be sure to include an extra pocket hole in the far right upper support.

[@Azurko]

I use the blue tape to put my patterns on my scroll saw. Makes cleanup so much easier.

[@guypyrzak]

8:34 right top back. Nice!

[@OnRappel]

At 8:24, right after you painted, on the right side, plain as day! haha

[@philshock3805]

Great job as usual, Mr. Brad! Mistake pocket hole on the top right rear stretcher.

[@kyfore]

#mistakesweremade maker 5:58 shows you turning the carcass and you can see the mistake on the right drawer bay. Still a great project to get things cleaned up!

[@tong6999]

8:37 just below the chopsaw blade area. Pocket hole drilled on wrong side of support is on inside of upper support rather than on back.

[@ScoobySnackOG]

The "me" nails cracks me up every time lol

[@brianmoar8180]

At 8:37 you can see the "extra" pocket hole on the inside of the right upper cleat which should have been on the outside

[@ScottWalshWoodworking]

#mistakesweremade @8:20 when you're painting, you can see a pocket hole on the top back right rear apron. You can't fool me muahahahaa!

[@christianlautenschlager9693]

16,05 i use to space the fronts of the drawers some spacer designed for big cloth cabinets to level the cabinets. We use those spacers for the drawers and it always works (small tip from Germany)

[@BLADEOF4]

5:58 upper right side of the stretcher as you’re flipping it around

[@MarshallLoveday]

VERY nice cabinet, Brad!

[@AngieWilliamsDesigns]

Do you have plans to do more videos on your organization of this room?

[@Fixthisbuildthat]

Yup! kzbin.info/www/bejne/rYLCdH6jms97ldU

[@warrenmunn3224]

One "issue" I didn't see you address in the build is working with the skirting board and the gap it creates at the rear of the cabinets. The one thing I loathe about store bought furniture, and generally address prior to installing, especially with shorter furniture, is the gap created at the back. I generally notch out the back bottom to allow the cabinet etc to flush up to the wall. This saves crud, small objects (pens are a great example) from rolling off the back and falling behind the cabinet. It also makes the fixture look neater when seen from the side, an off-cut of skirting is the perfect template to make the cut-out.

[@martyjosephson4937]

Hey Brad, I'm sure you were telling the truth about the pocket hole, but I couldn't see it. Have you considered putting some edge banding on that Lazy Susan to help with the turning, sort of turning handles instead of grabbing the plywood base, much easier with the extended handle on all four corners

[@WoodUCreate]

I love cabinet building. Nice job

[@AbrahamFarrell]

Wow. Those are some nice cabinets.

[@holdemNE1]

Very nice build. Well done and thanks for posting.

[@Matt_224]

It looks like the extra pocket hole is @14:36 in the top chest on the right side. Great build. 👍

[@FranksDIY]

Awesome looking cabinet

[@portaamber]

I suddenly need a block plane. That was very satisfying.

[@woodandwheelz]

#MistakesWereMade - The same wrong pocket hole shows up in various time spots. In the outdoor paint booth for one and is very obvious around 8:23 while you squat in front of the cabinet. I looked for an additional wrong hole but couldn't find one. Great build. I'm going to be doing my wife's craft room later this year or early next year. While I say her craft room, it's where she sends me to do stuff with the Cricut, edit/print photos I take of the sports teams at the school she teaches at or make posters for her classroom (it's really my room, LoL!). Oh, she sews in there too. Thank you for the great video and inspiration.

[@Hutch54]

There is a point where Bondo is firm but not fully hard - that is when you take a Surform shaver and easily remove the excess. Much better than waiting until it is fully hardened.

[@Spiess89]

Always love watching your videos. Keep them coming! Quick question: 1. Did you prime before painting? 2. What method did you use for fastening the tabletop?

[@Fixthisbuildthat]

Yes, and pocket screws through a elongated hole in top stretchers

[@bm280]

For the drawer fronts, an alternative to clamping would be to use double sided tape and stick the front to the drawer, then screw from behind. Saves working around clamps. Enjoyed the video. Thanks.

[@GeeScottJay]

So many other KZbinrs make draws with some kind of rabbet or dado for the bottom. I like the simplicity of your drawers, but I'm curious about the strength. I'd love to see a video that compared how much weight different draw styles can hold. Or even just the kind of weight you put in your drawers without problems? What about long term durability?

[@JeffYantha]

5:58 - right side stretcher on the backside as you flip it over. 8:00 - there was nearly a cat-tastrophe

[@BeugsTheLegend]

That block plane music is perfect. I think we can all agree that the block plane is one of the sexiest woodworking tools, am I right?

[@jballenger9240]

You are an amazing craftsman.

[@evavinvent]

wow such a way to go with a change on your office 😃

[@watcherdude1330]

Hello. Happy New Year to you and your family and all your other fans. I have no idea what size of shop you work out of. My other shop was my 26’ x 28’ garage with 8’ walls. I loved it had lots of extra room despite having a lot of tools. BUT NOW I ONLY have a 20’x20’ with 10’ walls because we moved and bought a new house and the city we moved too has such small yards and 20x20 was as big as I could go to have some backyard. I’m in the middle of moving my tools into New shop and I just don’t know how I’m going to Make it work. Your shop seems large like a triple garage. ? This new house has a triple car garage attached but it’s not in my opinion a true triple it’s more like a double and a half. I might be putting some of my cabinets and tools I don’t use often into it. Anyway, any true suggestions on how to make my layout / flow work . I would like suggestions from anyone who has this size shop . Ty in advance .

[@kaseyfox9180]

Top notch editing!

[@knotchtactical5257]

Top right back stretcher. Saw it after you painted outside. Wouldn’t even call it a mistake though. Really nice build as usual.

[@aidennymes6335]

Great video as always! I'd love you to dedicate a video to spray painting different wood finishes with the wagner flexio.

[@Malba1776]

Mistakes were made /right side section, top centerish pocket hole mistake on front side , visual n video around 8;43, thanx for all the videos u make

[@rodentriot6176]

At 8:36 in the video, the "mistake" pocket hole is in the back right stretcher, visible directly underneath your miter saw. Your fingers are almost pointing to it.

[@themilt73]

That cabinet looks great Brad! Love the drawer pulls. Cant wait to see the rest in the series!

[@matthyland1218]

the sped up parts really make this look like a quick build, man is it not, nice build

[@MacmanPilot]

Front right top cleat on the inside is where the extra hole is located

[@reo3x573]

Great build!! Would love to know how you connect dust collection to your power hand tools. Looks so clean. Thanks for sharing.

[@dougbrown7150]

Nice job, especially appreciated the technique on the drawer mounting. Question on the drawers can't you simply make one front that is both the structural and cosmetic drawer fromt

[@meperson]

That is great cabinet and I like mix and match with premade butcher block top. For jigsaw, I am not sure why no one uses straight edge - a speed square would work great and I use it when needing accurate cut.

[@alantran6901]

Use a speed square with the jig saw to cut out the toe kicks for the side panels.

[@jd_creations_wood3968]

Great video Brad! Super nice cabinet for the everyday need in the office.

[@mrow7598]

I noticed your 3d Printer, I found one of the greatest things to build is hose adapters for dust collection. You get a set of calipers and measure the diameters, design and print it out. One thing I did find my printer would print a circle like 2mm larger so I had to compensate for that.

[@ChristopherSalisburySalz]

You are the only maker I've seen that has the full table saw guard set up on your table saw. I think that's smart.

[@YooProjects]

Fantastic project man! Thanks 👍🤩👍

[@manufacturedbeats]

Your video quality is killing it!

[@b_wints7418]

beautiful work. Can't wait to evolve my collection of tools to a garage like yours.

[@jrodriguezmo]

Hello Rodríguez! Quick question, what is the adjustable mini table in 3:09? It looks great for “extending” any table. All your videos are great thanks for sharing with the world!

[@jamesmacintyre1415]

Does the cat have a white stripe. Now. Lol

[@popcorntime7914]

Love your videos. ..... Mistake made at 5:58 ,but u learn and it's call experience 😇

[@SawdustmakerLori]

Looks great!!! Can't wait to see your office when it's all done. No doubt it will be an inspiring place to work!

[@TheCreekerdudes]

#MISTAKESWEREMADE The overzealous pocket hole is in the right/front facing side of the wall cleat. Don’t sweat the small stuff Brad. Cabinet looks great!

[@fracarmona9341]

i love this tip of secret places

[@kenim8134]

OMG I can totally imagine this thing being sold at $3000 mark. So pretty!

[@MicBergsma]

You are so good!

[@twicklund]

i've watched this video probably 10 times! I love this cabinet. I do have one question though. It looks like you mount the bottom front cross bar abott 3/4 of an inch behind the toe kick cut out. (2:57 in the video shows a good view) Is there a reason you didnt mount it flush to toe kick? Is there an additional piece that you didnt show in the video that will go there, or is this a design standard? Or a bradism?

[@Dolfan0925]

That poplar looks awesome.

[@dennisd5776]

To get straight cuts on your toe kicks use a speed squire to guide the jigsaw like you would with a circ saw.
