In this episode, I make workshop cabinets using OSB (Oriented Strand Board). This cheap and affordable material is great for making workshop projects such as shelves and cabinets.

Regarding the negative comment in this thread: If it works it works. Doesn't have to be beautiful to serve a purpose.

[@danutplesu3352]

Looks great!

How thick are the boards? 7/16" or 3/4"?

[@Made2hack]

Hi, they are 18mm which I think is closer to 3/4

[@b3arwithm3]

How well osb holds screws?

[@Made2hack]

Pretty well. OSB + Screws have been extensively used for flooring to stop squeaking. However, make sure that you have enough room between edge of OSB and the screw hole. Otherwise, like other wood it might split.

[@FisherCatProductions]

Screwed into the face, it does not hold screws as well as plywood, but it is usually sufficient. On the other hand, edge screws can pull out easily, or shear and break out sideways. Set load bearing shelves, etc. into dados to prevent shear, and edge screw just to keep them in place. Don't plan on edge screws in anything thinner than 5/8, and they really need to be perfectly centered with a pilot hole. OSB is so cheap now, I'll plan my joints and use it for my garage cabinets.

Not gonna lie they look like crap. One side board is longer than the rest and sticks out then the shelf of the same one is longer than its other side and it sticks out....clearly the corners didnt get painted well either. Take some pride in the work...

[@FisherCatProductions]

So...make your board shorter and paint your corners better. We're not building a black walnut watch cabinet here. IT'S OSB.

@@FisherCatProductions I realize that but if you're making something for a video why wouldn't you want to do the best job you can from the start. I wasn't trying to be a jerk was just pointing out what I saw and what could be improved upon is all.
