Making a Cabinet with Hand Tools

7:39 "Let me blame it on my broken moxon vise for convenience." Loool Ooh that bowtie looks great though. It came out beautiful, I especially love all the details

[@YRTi]

Thank you, my friend! I'm happy to hear "you love all the details" as nothing went easy and I spent a good amount of time on every thing!

[@HaiNguyen408]

No apologies needed. Always grateful for you putting the time to making these videos!

[@YRTi]

Thank you for the kind words as always! It makes me feel I need to upload more videos, haha:)

[@rawr2u190]

@@YRTi Yes, art cannot be rushed

[@scottsuridge5349]

I always enjoy your videos as your narration is honest and at times amusing. The small bowtie on the drawer adds a small distinction to a very nicely made cabinet. Maybe make that bowtie a small logo for the furniture you make for your workshop. It could become a personal growth symbol to reflect upon as you progress in furniture making. Good job :}

[@YRTi]

Thank you for the kind words! I personally prefer to finish a project without a bowtie but yeah, thank you for the idea, too:) It's always nice to have this type of feedback.

[@katimaboy]

That looks very professional, well done !

[@YRTi]

Thank you😎👍

[@jimmcnett]

Wow. That looks very good. I feel you should be proud of what you have accomplished.

[@YRTi]

Thank you so much! A little by little but surely I can feel the improvement. Though, I want to improve my skills much more!

[@paulacreman4413]

Great video, no apologies needed, you have achieved a great result. Keep up the good work. Cheers Paul

[@YRTi]

Thank you for the kind words! I will always do my best:)

[@airnashville3883]

Thank you for another entertaining video.

[@YRTi]

Thank you! I hope to put videos more often!

[@dr4g0nt4nk3r]

Always happy to see a video from you. The progress you've made over the years is impressive!

[@YRTi]

Thank you so much! It's all because you guys kindly give me motivation to improve!

[@TuxPanther]

It's always a pleasure to watch you work! Thanks for the video.

[@YRTi]

Thank you! I’m happy to hear that😎

[@rollingstone3017]

You show lots of insight and understanding of working with hand tools. Thank you for sharing!

[@YRTi]

Thank you, my friend! I share the information based on what I find so maybe it's wrong at the end of the day but I just hope it helps someone someday!

[@rollingstone3017]

@@YRTi Might I ask where you got your jointer plane? I can't find it on Amazon.

[@YRTi]

@@rollingstone3017 Hi! I bought mine at a store in Japan when I visited there. A jointer plane is called 長台(nagadai) or 長台鉋(nagadai kanna)and you can check a store called "Yamasuke Kurashigetools". They are the known big store that ships to the US for like $50 and no tax on an item(not sure but most likely since it's an international purchase). For 65mm-70mm, decent ones (new) start from around 150$ in general and they need adjustments to use.

[@rollingstone3017]

@@YRTiIt would be great if you could make a video showing how you set up a new Japanese plane, the way you like to get it feeling right. 😊 Just a friendly suggestion.

[@YRTi]

Hey, I'm still learning Kanna and there are many unsure things so I don't think I feel comfortable to make such a video yet. Well, I had similar request today and yeah, I've had the requests in the past, too so I made this page today (www.yrti.net/kanna-experience/) . It's not about the Kanna set up but I hope it may help people to buy their first Kanna...

Beautiful cabinet and workmanship! Drawer front edge banding is an elegant detail.

[@YRTi]

Thank you! I'm glad to hear that as it's my favorite thing:)

[@davewest6788]

Looks great. Nice job

[@YRTi]

Thank you so much!!

[@rustyyazo]

Your projects are amazing and unique, I have already watched several videos on your channel and I really like what you do. Your hand tools are amazing, I want to throw away all my power tools and work like you. I wish you good luck in developing your channel and successful projects.

[@YRTi]

You can always start hand tool woodworking! I only had a few tools when I started and more importantly, I can take care of your power tools, too, haha:) Joking aside, thank you for watching my videos and giving me a comment!

[@kylemccabe6578]

I got excited when I saw you had a new video :) Cabinet looks great, brother.

[@YRTi]

Thank you! I hope to upload more videos in this year!

[@kevins031151]

Nice job mate. Well worth the wait.

[@YRTi]

Thank you for the comment and it's nice to see you again, my friend!

[@papitas6061]

You're too talented 😤

[@YRTi]

Thank you! haha, I just spent doubled or tripled the time to cover up the luck of talent in me:)

[@MrSeminole77]

viva la hand tools! death to epoxy tables..... great work here!

[@YRTi]

Thank you! haha, I don't hate it but I'm not planning to make one:)

[@MosquitoMade]

Looks really good! I like the contrast between the Ambrosia maple and cherry wood. Also, the convenience of a broken tool shall never go un-blamed :D

[@YRTi]

Thank you, Mos. Yeah, I had 2 tools broken so I can blame upto 2 things! Well, the thread of 304 SS rod was worn out just to remove it from the nut that was stuck and I had to order another one.

[@pige0nmelk]

Looks great! Excellent choice of wood and joinery. I'll take some inspiration for this when I make myself a tool cabinet!

[@YRTi]

Thank you! I recognized your name. Your skill is good, my friend:)

[@ping170]

Nice cabinet ! Congratulations 👍

[@YRTi]

Thank you:)

[@lukedeaton]

That's a really lovely piece, well done. I really enjoy the video and i look forward to more! Also, everything takes me three times as long as i think so don't worry about that!

[@YRTi]

Wow, 3 times!? Mine was only 2.9 times, haha! I will do my best to upload as many videos as possible:) Thank you for the comment!

[@TssWood]

Aprecio muito seus vídeos e fico feliz por tê-los de volta. Agora com a possibilidade da dublagem automática está melhor ainda, pois gosto de assistir na televisão enquanto me alimento. Mais um ótimo vídeo, continue assim! Obrigado.

[@YRTi]

Thank you! I didn't know the Auto dub function but it sounded cool, haha:)

[@WiltonSilveira]

Inspirador!

[@YRTi]

Gracias:)

[@roadtriplover.]

I love this cabinet and the bowtie is actually very nice. It is sort of like a signature and could be something you include on all projects. I also like the edge banding, but have never done it. Im a new hand tool woodworker. I will check for videos that explain how to make the edge banding, as my next project will involve the creation of drawers.

[@YRTi]

Thank you for the positive comment! For the edge banding, Japanese kebiki marking gauge works pretty good to me as you can deepen the marking lines like almost 1/8" deep. When I didn't have the plane, I marked the thickness of the band from the sides of the drawer and the multiple lines like every 1/8" of the band width from the front face and slice it with a wide chisel. you can have kind of the idea from my old video:kzbin.info/www/bejne/q4jQp2CIns18jK8

[@Makez33]

Thank you for the hard work you put into videos. Suggestion: wider frames when shooting, sometimes watching feels claustraphobic since we are so close

[@YRTi]

Thank you so much. I wouldn't even think about it without your advice especially as I work at a small place. I will need some creativity to achieve it but I will definitely try it.

[@CarlsonChrisW]

How can I contribute to your work? Would like to donate so you can buy more wood clamps.

[@YRTi]

Thank you for the kind offer. It's okay, as long as you watch my videos, I'm so happy:)

[@matheisacoelho3841]

Ele usou uma furadeira eletrica !!!!!!

[@YRTi]

Haha, yes, I did. it’s a power tool but a hand tool😎 Thank you for the comment:)

[@socketwench]

Where do you get your planes? Its been hard to find good ones online.

[@YRTi]

Mainly I bought them when I visited Japan last summer. I also contacted some local tool stores in Japan by phone and some stores personally arranged an international shipping though I took the risk of the shipping damage. I've never used it yet but I've heard Kurashige Tools is decent that they do international shipping by default.
