Hello there: I went to check that website outwater.com but seems to be a little complicate for to buy some stuff from there, because you said those door slides guides were only $8 but I don’t know how to place an order. Or do you have to be a member to be able to buy from them?

[@meaznet]

Just click on the part number, that will bring you to a page to add quantity. Click add then click checkout. website is extremely slow and needs a refresh if it stops responding I'm finding.

[@meaznet]

The door that doesn't want to close just disable one of the soft-close hinge switches and it should close on it's own. I'm surprised it's like that with a full MDF door, you might also want to make sure it's not out of alignment.

What are some of the “gotcha’s” on this project? I am looking at making my own kitchen cabinets in pretty much the same style. Thanks and love the videos!

Nothing budget about this, these are custom, rta from China is budget,

[@davidrobine5350]

So many times, when I’m watching your videos, I feel like an idiot. I see you do something and realize that is such an easier way to do it than the way I have in the past! For example, putting the drawer slides on a workbench in order to easily attach the slides to the drawers! Oh well, live and learn! Great video, as always.

[@wdfwgagyfgagyga]

to use a speed square as a guide for the jigsaw is genius, thank you for showing us this!

[@johnfisher4910]

Yes! Came here to say that!

[@richardhogben3776]

[@markfernandes2396]

Jay, I build ATA flight cases for a living, I saw this because I want to build cabinets for the Mrs. Its was very informative and has given the inside on how to build a nice box.. I think you did an excellent Job, definitely better than any box store box.. Good Job. People complain because they are not busy and usually have a chip on their shoulder. We call them Masters of the Universe complex. Again good job and the editing was very good as well. Thks for your channel. hats off to your assistant too!

[@welcome.smkhatshwa4338]

"say hello to my lil friend"😆😆😆.. Great Work guys, am a Data Scientist but developimg great love for carpentry, will definitely use this vid for my next mini project in South Africa

[@MikeWienold-72]

"Say hello to my little friend!" ...nice touch with the rapid fire nail gun. Loved that...

[@Rifleman0311]

Thanks for a great video. Very well made. Without a doubt I will be using some of your ideas when I build my cabinets for my garage.

[@anonymouse2141]

Love the drawer front installs with a piece of wood straight edge. Clever

[@esee135]

Thanks for showing the tedious parts of attaching drawer slides. It’s the unglamorous part of being a woodworker. Great vid.

[@saowczarek7671]

Amei ! Que trabalho lindo e perfeito, lógico que as ferramentas ajudam, mais sem excelentes profissionais isso jamais seria possível, PARABÉNS !!!

[@sgsax]

Thanks for showing that "budget" doesn't have to be "cheap" or flimsy. Wish I had seen the tip of using the square with the jigsaw a few weeks ago... Thanks for sharing!

[@gsh319]

I liked the starter fence jig on the table saw. Real nice trick. Great work as always JB!

[@mearlynthewoodwizard6036]

Man, you really killed it on those cabinets. They are a lot like what I build at the cabinet shop I work at. You have a different method but obviously get great results. Bravo.

[@billscott9575]

You just gave me the confidence to build my own, thanks

[@kaliebgriffiths9800]

You always make things so easy to understand Good job

Love all the Detroit teams being represented, fellow Michigander / Detroiter myself. Oh yeah, the video & shop are incredible

[@9282247]

I really like these cabinets. You inspire me to get in the shop all the time. thank you.

[@dragaknee]

Thank you for this video. You were a lot of fun to watch and answered all of my questions, including your note on the poplar.

Liking the Synology Diskstation in the far right cabinet. Great job and a fun rewatch.

DAMN SON!!! can you build my shop? lol sweet build. Great Video! I like the impact noises. haha nice touch

[@IsaKocoglu]

Jay, you are graceful and awesome woodworker! Thank you so much for sharing this!

[@jobranch1]

Great video. I’ll be mounting some drawers to some slides in a few minutes and enjoyed watching you do it.

[@boilup9536]

This is brilliant I'm building a motorhome a d this video has made building cabinetry alot easier. Wish I had your workshop very cool. Thank you

[@turnipsucks6416]

If I had all these fun awesome tools, I'd loose my mind, and likely have a mile long honey do list:). Great video

Great solution for that room. I like how you have the wires for the battery backup running in there. Good idea.

[@JayBates]

Thanks Bruce.

Nice, clean and strong! Nice job Jay! As always...classy work from a classy guy!

This is the project I am doing right now! Doing the drawers now, thanks for the help!

Turned out very well, as usual! Congrats!

[@harrydavis6903]

Very well done. A great video also. One can learn much in twelve minutes. Thank you, Jay.

That pocket hole machine is brilliant. Great video. using the speed square as a guide is a great tip too.

Supercool! Fast and tidy. Thanx for the video, it was pleasant to watch. :)

Great video, safety stand point, lose the ring ,jewelry, etc. During builds. Keep up the good work!!!

[@dibley1973]

Great techniques for the drawer runner alignment. I must remember those!

[@Blackrain4xmas]

Nice work! Had me at the nailgun voiceover. I made it to 5:28 until I realized that the amazing shop setup....WAS A GARAGE?!! omg I have really got some work to do in mine now! :)

[@josephmuise7605]

I love his "Redwing" drawer pulls!

[@gilb8072]

Really good video and great article. I am building a new kitchen and did the same thing as you, looked at how the commercial units were built then designed mine according to my wife's wish list. I used paint grade maple plywood for the boxes and brown (heartwood) maple for the face frames....not too expensive, easy enough to work with and durable. We have the same problem here as you, 4 big dogs, mud and dust!

Nice, simple and beautiful pieces!, thanks for sharing Jay ~

Fantastic Old School Jay Bates video. All that was missing was a " Get to the chopper ".

[@JayBates]

hahaha. I was trying to use that exact audio clip but couldn't distort the nail gun sounds enough to actually sound like a chopper.

I love the "slow" shots and different angles of the cabinet. Really helps you get an understanding for the build. Why did you decide to go with MDF for the drawers this time? I remember you knocking failed MDF drawers in one of your OLD videos.

[@ilovewoodworking]

This is very comprehensive. Thank You for Your efforts!

[@electricalron]

Beautiful work, Jay. The electrician in me wanted to run those cables inside the wall to the cabinet but nonetheless some fine carpentry!

[@keithnp51]

Beautifully done and great efficiency of work! The only thing I would avoid is the MDF drawers. I recently dismantled an old Ikea desk made from veneer particle board and it was amazing how easily you could knock the the fasteners apart with a moderate hammer blow. No holding power at all! Of course this is an office cabinet with less likelihood of spills that can also degrade MDF. Not a hater at all and love your vids especially minimal narration with emphasis on work flow. Thanks, Keith
