More Woodworkers Need To Try This!

I needed a place to store my shoes and a nice entryway bench. I decided to make one but with Tambour wood doors to give me a challenge, but I made better tambour doors using kerf cuts, because if the recent experience I have with kerf cutting I was very confident on this idea.

[@warrenyoung173]

Did you consider screws instead of glue to fix the bottom to the rest? It may have let you avoid cutting the door track.

[@JARMade]

That's a great idea! I did not think about that

[@rrb79]

Plans not available anymore. Thanks for the idea though!

[@topnotchcontent]

That's still the coolest Kerf project I've seen yet!

[@tomrael9893]

Thanks for the great video 🤘

[@lucabattiston6428]

This is awesome

[@MagixianX1]

Not sure if anyone does this, but i would consider fitting some hidden roller bearings to reduce the resistance.

[@defonotmario]

Exactly what I was thinking

[@hiliaryjohnson5188]

Awesome channel! You won a new subscriber

[@fcallum77]

Nice video. I'm glad you show all the mistakes and don't use editing, lie and so on to cover them up. You are a genuine creator! The project came out looking great, even with the mishaps.

[@JARMade]

Thank you so much!! Mistakes are part of the process and I like to show the entire process as much as possible 💯

[@StylesToHate]

Couldnt have said it better .

[@NelsonWoodworks]

Awesome video Jesus! This looks amazing

[@JARMade]

Thank you Chris!

[@peterclifton7069]

Great job. . It may be a prototype but looks great to me. Very brave experimenting with that expensive plywood.

[@JARMade]

Haha go big or go home right? Haha 😄

[@PrinceWesterburg]

For the love of God, watch some videos on how to use a table saw properly while you still have thumbs!!!

[@JARMade]

Any recommendation? 🤣

[@timknapp6388]

you were fine

[@tobycross4935]

You should go into boat refitting, love your ideas, on a boat this would be a game changer for hidden storage especially in the living ereas

[@ColnAng]

Perhaps a insert plastic runner?

[@arboristBlairGlenn]

Tambor is a better choice

[@JARMade]

Tambour does look good !

[@ScottWalshWoodworking]

really cool concept and you executed it very well. Good job Jesus!

[@JARMade]

Thanks Scott!! Really appreciate that 🙏 🙌

[@robertbutler8004]

It is good that you show that you are human and showed your mistakes we all make mistakes but I guess that a lot of KZbinrs do not show their mistakes.

[@jewdd1989]

I can’t help but wonder if it’s the solid 1/2” sheets of plywood that are really your resistance? I’ve always seen it done with slats attached to leather or drop cloth. Looks very nice, hope it works better

[@adiaz2494]

Nice work, if it was mine i would like to have a back for the middle square shelfs, but it's just a personal preference

[@gungasam3000]

Was looking for a tambour door idea, and found this video. Freakin brilliant. New sub!

[@brumasbusiness]

It's a great idea, but almost for sure will break in one of the kerfs overtime. Unless you don't use too much

[@nickbrutanna9973]

1 -- I like the picture-in-picture effect showing what part of the build you are working on. Nice touch. 2 -- you might run the runner space further into the back side of the setup, allowing you to put a fixed back-panel onto it, which the doors slide "in front of" (from the front view). This would allow the thing to stay somewhat fully enclosed, rather than open back or open front, as currently designed. Such enclosure might possibly be desirable with, ummm, "stinky shoes".

[@DETHTWUKTAUR]

This is from a whole year ago? Nice work - are you still Cuttin' Up?

[@rrb79]

Could try small recessed rollers to make it easier to glide.

[@mattdworaczyk1884]

Looks awesome man! I'm sure the cost of the plywood made up for at least some, if not all, of the milling time solid wood would have required.

[@JARMade]

That is definitely a good way to look at it.

[@austinartfx]

Ball Bearings??? might help

[@shironec6815]

Hey nice Video, Quick Question: Now a Year later did the Dors Hold firm or did they get damaged over time just by using them?

[@JARMade]

They are still holding firm, but I haven't been opening and closing them haha they pretty much just stay open

[@fcschoenthal]

Good thing it's a prototype. 😁 Still a very nice piece that you should be very proud of. - Chris

[@JARMade]

Definitely am. Thank you 🙂

[@Myhealth-ce2se]

counter clockwise for right handed woodworkers. clockwise for left handed

[@amwartwork]

i thin if you put a sligh chamfer on the back edge of the doors , it would have slid better due to less contact frction. but then that nay have put more pressure on end end of the kefrs causing cracking. you have some serious skills

[@jessicaleesantana]

So in loooveeeeee years! 😍 Just watched your YT video and so impressed! Im going to use your kerf vids for a future breakfast nook tutorial!

[@MCsCreations]

Brilliant work, dude! It turned out beautiful! 😃 Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

[@JARMade]

Thank you!!

[@chrismartinez7037]

First off nice table secondly you do know that router bit are highly unlikely to imploded on you?

[@rangelgaydadzhiyski55]

Looks amazing! Just add an inner wall at the back that will prevent showing up the empty back or items falling out the back 👌

[@leaky2531]

Probably late but that gap could turn into a drawer and you could put shoe horns in there

[@rryybass]

Hi mate, yes a few mistakes, but still looks good, well done

[@stuff2makestuff]

Did you have any issue getting the multiple dowels aligned? I've always been concerned I'd get one off by 1/16 of an inch and then the pieces wouldn't align.

[@JARMade]

Yeah I worked out in the end. But I would use a different method next time

[@defonotmario]

That is an insanely awesome idea.

[@diegoch04]

Awesome dude. Thank you.

[@BrettNaugher-nu6nq]

That's a fantastic chest.

[@noynayru]

I'm sure you already know, but just starting the video: Make sure you get the rights to anything you design that you wanna sell! Otherwise, companies will steal them from you in a flash. Has happened to other KZbinrs before

[@JARMade]

Good to know. Thank you! How would I go about doing this?

[@g-coversa]

I dont care what critics say... this is the best DIY i ever seen. Looks easy but i am sure i can take a year doing it 😂😂😂😂. GREAT JOB MAN.

[@JARMade]

Thank you!

[@babel232]

Looks good , if the gap filler on the base does begin to bother you, I have a Suggestion sanding sealer and flat black paint for the base, you won't be able to tell it's been filled, and the Flat black finish will make a nice contrast. I've hidden more than one unplanned "feature" that way over the years ;) .

[@JARMade]

Good idea! But I can't even notice it

[@woodshopnerdery]

Great job! Very interesting design and building techniques. When I first saw the pics of the build I did not realize the curves were sliding doors! I think the veneer will eventually crack with use. But to get the same look maybe you could redesign with the ends being fixed kerf cut plywood and the doors made as tradition tambour panels, as on a roll top desk, but sideways.

[@JARMade]

Yeah I am already seeing cracking on the doors unfortunately

[@woodshopnerdery]

@@JARMade still great job having the courage to experiment.

[@xScottguyx]

How do you like the grizzly? I'm extremely tempted to buy one but have seen very little for reviews

[@JARMade]

So far I've used it on 1 project. This one. But I did like it! I'm working on a review video for it. But it might be a few weeks before it comes out

[@micha-42]

Congrats on the build, buddy, subbed! Great that we can learn from your mistakes :D These doors are just amazing, that's too bad they don't slide well. Any improvement in the past few months?

[@JARMade]

To be honest the doors just stay open all the time haha

[@lovedags7880]

Very nice looking piece. Furniture stores don't have the quality of a nice homeaid piece, built by a master craftsman. Keep building your own designs,you are very good at it.

[@JARMade]

Thank you so much!!

[@GeometryBuild]

That is a very good idea! Prototype looks awesome! I remember seeing something called bendi plywood? Or something? Basically it is a flexible plywood. Might work here as a veneer or kinda.

[@JARMade]

Yeah I actually have bendi ply in my shop but it's super thin

[@GeometryBuild]

@@JARMade you could glue it to a regular ply and then cut grooves, maybe?

[@watchtube35]

@@GeometryBuild can't glue the ply to the curved shape because once it needs to straighten to pass the front or back it won't as it's set to the curved shape from using the glue

[@pinkeye00]

Most honest wood worker for the average Joe. Subscribing for the tranparency.

[@JARMade]

Welcome 🙂 and I'm a little embarrassed how many mistakes my next video is going to have lol 😆 but that's how we learn

[@zubrowy2646]

Didn't you think to add second panel in the back of the chest closer to the middle so there is no open way for the dust to seep into the chest when slide is closed?

[@JARMade]

Yes I did. That was the original idea actually, but I ended up leaving it open to air out the shoes 👞.

[@erichaskell]

We It may be that your slot needed to be wider as perhaps the tolerances were just too tight.

[@JARMade]

So because there are to many kerfs the gap isn't a problem. They don't interfere

[@haroldneely9253]

If the dowel joiner doesn’t cost a $1000 I would take the time to get the hang of it.

[@JARMade]

Dowel jointer was around $100 when I bought it.

[@bowerscustomwoodworkingllc]

I like the project! I also think it’s cool you don’t hide from mistakes you made.

[@JARMade]

Absolutely! Mistakes is how you learn the most

[@crobles13]

definitely a beautiful piece. how much would you sell that piece for?

[@JARMade]

Around $1000 if I was to sell this.

[@scotschlinger3975]

Nice job! Enjoy your honesty about your mistake and then your ability to problem solve.

[@JARMade]

Thank you! I appreciate that 🙏

[@CornerCreekWoodworking]

Great video. That's is very unique.

[@JARMade]

Thank you!!

[@AlbertinhoVigo]

Good work :)

[@tnoinetwork]

I love it!!!

[@FuzzyWoodWorker]

with repeated use, aren’t you worried the surface cracks would show up and sooner or later it will split?

[@JARMade]

Yes I am. That's why I Made the doors removable just in case that happens.

[@FuzzyWoodWorker]

@@JARMade love the idea and execution!

[@Jealarc]

Inspiring work! Well done. What's the yellow tool used on the edges?

[@JARMade]

Edge banding trimmer. This one is made by BAND-IT

[@Jealarc]

@@JARMade Thank you!

[@ifiwooddesigns]

DUDE!!! Once again blown away by your kerf ability and design. What spacing did you use between kerfs? Also going to check out that Grizzly dowel drill. Never saw that before. Keep on with the great videos!

[@JARMade]

It was a 3/16 inch spacing but that's over kill you can space them out more lol and yeah I just found out about the doweling jointer lol 😆

[@ifiwooddesigns]

@@JARMade That’s awesome. Just an FYI… why not put a slot in your sled with a thin scrap to 3/16” so you can slide over each kerf rather than look over it from the top and over the blade? Kinda like when making finger joints so they are evenly spaced and you don’t have to risk being above the blade. Just a thought… 🤔💭

[@JARMade]

I didn't think of that lol great suggestion!

[@MegaFictionalCharact]

the poly probably just stiffens the wood

[@JARMade]

It sure did lol

[@andrewdobbs7000]

@@JARMade Would an oil finish moisturize the wood and keep the fibers flexible?
