Quick Kitchen Cabinet Pt 2

[@petersonjno_lewis7009]

I have looked at approximately 100 videos on making kitchen cabinets. This video is the most explanatory simple and most liked. There was nothing that was not understood. Everything was explained and showed in the most understanding way.

[@maiedova]

I don't know what it is but I love listening to this guy. I don't know what his background is but he's a born teacher.

[@lastorianostra8173]

I must say your english sounds perfect to me and your pronunciation is amazing for me as italian.

[@robertvogel7776]

Thank you so much. Very well explained, precise and informative with no stupid music or added bullshit. Soooo good!!!

[@georgewest153]

Excellent pair of videos. I can't see a reason anyone couldn't follow your thorough instruction and with access to some tools make a cabinet. The thing that puts you head and shoulders over the rest is your including reasoning into why you do the steps you do, and in the order you do them. Good job.

[@easterlake]

Everyone makes cabinets a bit different. I like this method.

[@damianbushman4973]

FANTASTIC! Very easy to follow. Very easy to hear. Nothing left me guessing. Great job and thank you!!

[@j.c.8975]

I love your assortment of clamps, they look fantastic, thanks for sharing your expertise.

[@kipwilson3771]

Love the tip on marking for the drawer slides.

[@mikelovetere4719]

Whoever shot this video did a professional job..great......

[@maxamedxuseen1740]

This a great contribution to the community. Thank you.

[@nickolasspadaro9848]

The Tips you give are priceless. Thanks.

[@garykorzelius5930]

I liked this particular series so much I subscribed. Great job thanks!

[@rshepfam2009]

You're a good teacher with an excellent presentation style. I have subscribed and look forward to learning more from you. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience.

[@leonabrazaldo9318]

Thank you its very helpful for the guy like me. Ive learned a lot

[@mhaz49]

Great tip on letting the glue get tacky so it does not slide as much.

[@jadinesimpson]

Great jod, excellent teacher

[@geraldolson9098]

Very informative. I am going to use your technique when building a cabinet I need to get done real soon. Greatly appreciate what you are doing for us neophyte woodworkers.

[@kencorsell8087]

Enjoyed your video especially your relaxed presentation, only thing I would change is adding a rabbet along the back edge of both side panels to accept the 1/4” back panel to seal the box and give it even more rigidity.

[@rogerpoindexter2328]

Good job as always Steve. Thanks for the instructional videos. I enjoy them very much.

[@Bbendfender]

You are a very good craftsman.

[@mayorstoner3459]

Great build! Great name too!!

[@ddlpt]

thankyou sir, great explanation, this technique that I will use for my future cabinet project, quite simple.

[@blitskrieg2009]

This is very timely as I am going to build the same when I have fully recovered from this nasty flu. Thanks for taking time to docu and share. I just love ur tips too. Saving me from mistakes to be. God bless!

[@downtoearthwoodworks]

Hope you get over that flu quickly! Thanks so much for watching!

[@ranjdall]

Great video. You break it down well enough to give me confidence to give it a shot

[@jamesa.5052]

Good work.

[@tavashiostubbs8539]

Very good video like how u brake it down good teacher

[@williamwilson5668]

[@twylabowman3489]

Great, clear, concise presentation. Loved it. Thanks for helping me learn woodworking.

[@leonardusdesignleonardusde3479]

Nice workshop

[@southbreeze6745]

Your shop is beautiful, you are a true craftsman. I really needed some of your tips on a project I'm working on. Thanks!

[@roychapman7030]

nice, looking foward to seeing the drawer build.

[@randymorris765]

Thanks Steve. Picked up some great tips! Now to get busy....

Merci Steve pour ce tutoriel remarquablement expliqué et filmé !...

[@downtoearthwoodworks]

Thank you!

[@claytonlemieux4090]

Thank you very much for the 2 videos, Now I know how I am going to make my cut off saw stand and all it's cabinets in the garage

[@edinsonsierra243]

Exelente video , desafortunadamente no tiene traducción al español,pero es UD un maestro gracias por compartir sus conocimientos

[@jesuscastillo4275]

Thanks a lot for the tutorial. Greetings from Monterrey, Mexico!

[@downtoearthwoodworks]

Thanks for watching! Happy New Year!

[@dinnerwithfranklin]

Great vids and hints. Thanks

[@derekcavan6000]

Very informative and easy to follow. I will be making some cabinets soon and will follow your exact design. It's great to see a full cabinet build as simple as this with no sped up video that is then very hard to follow. Thanks for taking the time to create this sir. I have also subscribed to your channel. ;)

[@dsotactical4512]

Great video, great presentation.

[@stlbr7272]

You are fantastic!!

Good working mister congr

[@jglc7970]

great video, thank you! It helped me a lot (parts 1 and 2)

[@tonygfactory09]

thank you a lot Sr. this is really helpful and we'll explained.

[@Scrambler85]

New subscriber, excellent presentation

[@melaniopradojr2665]

Very informative and nice. Is the inner side of the face frame (vertically) flush with the inner wall of the plywood?

[@beatorres6871]

I'll be building my own kitchen sink cabinet thank u so much many blessings your way greetings from El Paso Tx 😌❤I was just going to suggest to put a piece of wood to that to clamp the back part😉

[@mikejustice1196]

How do you attach 3/4 uprights to 1/4 plywood with pocket holes?

[@frankingram3382]

I have really enjoyed these two videos. I have also learned a few tips that will serve me well on some of my projects. Hey, an "old dog" can learn new tricks. Are you woodworking teacher or instructor?

[@downtoearthwoodworks]

+Frank Ingram Hi Frank... not a teacher, per se, although I have done some classes for Popular Woodworking. You can find these by going to... classes.popularwoodworking.com Thanks for the question!

[@malekrhaddad]

Great job, but those pocket holes for the cross brace were installed 180* backwards. Much weaker if the screws bite into the edge of the wood vs the center.

[@บัวกลางนํ้า-ฬ9ธ]

Thank you for VDO I love it

[@williamsmith9026]

I have to build an L shaped (removable for seasons) set up for a horribly out of level paver porch corner. Are the holes in the bottom shelf inside for leg adjustment? Im assuming they are. Other than that this was the closest video I could find to what I was after. Good clarity of the build. Too many of these videos assume you know certain things and they leave you hanging and aggravated.

[@downtoearthwoodworks]

William, thank you so much. Yes, those access holes are so a slotted screwdriver can be put into the tops of the leg levelers and adjustments can be made. Find some plastic compression-fit caps to plug the holes, or better, find the caps and drill the holes to match whatever caps you can find. On an outdoor cabinet that will help keep critters from finding their way into the cabinet!

[@brianpowers4200]

Great video! Is the inside edge of the face frame flush to the inside edge of the cabinet side or is there overhang on the inside edge too?

[@jerrysteger3820]

Great VDO. Planning to remodel our kitchen soon and will use these as tutorials. Would like to know what plywood you are using. Planning to finish cabinets in honey maple. keep up the good work.

[@nikfish1]

So where does the front of the drawer slide attach to? The face frame? If so, then you have to design the cabinet to be the perfect depth around the length of the drawer slide?

[@summerswoodworking]

Very nice

[@bobcombs6191]

enjoyed your presentation I like the idea of using a box frame at the bottom, what kind of layout ruler did you use? I've never saw one like it.

[@jerrykramer7025]

Can this be used to make a bath vanity?

[@TheRickypeou]

Excellent presentation! I was just wondering, how much weight can a cabinet like that support? I was planning on using your technique on an aquarium cabinet I plan to build. Your input would be appreciated. Thank you

[@atlas227428]

Thanks for the video !!! Always a pleasure to watch. But still confused about how much the face frames overhang on the inside of the cabinet. Is there a standard amount? Does it depend on the drawer slides being used? Thanks again !

[@deus402]

also interested in the answer to this.

[@db19812009]

What is the total cost of each cabinet? Thank you for these videos. You really are down to earth and I appreciate it.

[@downtoearthwoodworks]

Hi! Thanks for watching! It's really hard to say, since there are so many variables. The cabinet grade plywood will cost anywhere from about $40 - $80 / sheet, depending on the face veneer and other variables. The hardwood lumber is highly variable. The drawer slides are roughly $20 apiece, depending on length, etc. I would guess that I have $150-$200 in a base cabinet when all is said and done.

[@camchristie9463]

Will there be a part 3 showing drawer building and installation?

[@downtoearthwoodworks]

+Cam Christie Thanks for watching and for your question! Yes, there is a video coming on drawer building!

[@ScreenPrintR]

D2E, you mention Big Box Store wood, do you recommend other places to buy wood, and what kind?

[@bpoole99251]

what are the holes in the dust plate for?

[@Rick-tb4so]

When using roller bearing slides on your drawers will the width of the drawer (OD) always be 1" smaller than the cabinet opening ??

[@downtoearthwoodworks]

With most slides I have used, yes. There may be others on the market with difference clearance sizes, so be sure to read the specifications or instructions that come with the slides.

[@TheRocketbob22]

Steve, I like your videos. I am not so much interested in each project as I am your soothing voice and easy going style. You are like a friend in a box. ( pc screen).

[@madlifts1]

What type of plywood you use for the cabinets

[@volvioelblu2043]

Awesome voice sr...do you have a brothers named optimus or Thanos???

[@amarconfe]

Muy buena explicacion. Muchas gracias por tu ayuda. Ahora yo mismo construire mis propios gabinetes.

[@downtoearthwoodworks]

Gracias por ver. ¡Espero que sus gabinetes sean excelentes!

[@shaundobbs2138]

what is your desired facefram overhang on both sides? 1/8" each side?

[@downtoearthwoodworks]

Yes, except on any side that will be butted up to a wall, then I will typically put a 1/4" overhang so that the edge can be scribed to fit should the wall not be perfectly straight. Thanks for watching!

[@bill0118]

Very good presentation indeed, but I'm always shocked to see people spreading glue with their fingers!

[@colinstace4775]

what happened to the middle cross piece at the back?

[@5ohclocksomewhere]

it was for the top not the back of the cabinet.

[@kimallen4746]

Did you only use glue to attach the face frame? If so , is that not a weak joint?

[@downtoearthwoodworks]

Glue only is fine. Because the long grain of the hardwood face frame is being glued to the edges of the plywood (not the face veneer), and with today's great glues, there is little chance of failure. In fact, in tests I did a few years ago, the wood will break before the glue joint. Of course, this is contingent upon having two perfectly mating surfaces... as good as the glue is, it does not fill gaps well. But if everything is level and flat, the glue alone is plenty strong.

[@wendymattelaer5817]

I was going to ask the same question. I think I will use something more than just glue for the face frames that support doors though; people have a tendency to lean on doors to view inside cabinets.

[@wendymattelaer5817]

ps great tutorial thanks. :-)

[@mikehogan1827]

Steve: Great video. I’m going to change my cabinet building process to follow your approach. Re attaching the face frame, what do you think of using pocket screws?

[@abacab87]

@@mikehogan1827 I'm surprised he didn't use them, although on an open cabinet you'd have to hide them somehow.

[@saltyd2137]

Where is part 3, making the drawers and drawer fronts?

[@downtoearthwoodworks]

+Les K Coming in about a week.

[@derrickervin4967]

What type of drill are you using?

[@ee4231]

Festool

[@Outlook535]

why didn't put the pocket hole screws on the outside instead of the inside showing?

[@downtoearthwoodworks]

+Johnson Mike You are correct. And typically I do. If you watch the balance of the videos you will see that this cabinet becomes "all drawers" so nothing will show on the inside. If you watch the series on building the bathroom vanity, you will see that I did put the pocket screws where they would not show. Thanks for watching!

[@jelipe54]

muy bien explicado es lo major que he visto

[@derpherpp3]

isn't it easy if you make the faceframe AFTER you make the cabinet , maybe that's what's new people doing because it hard to know exactly the size and reveal for the faceframe

[@lefullhouse]

For your drawer slides, your face frame is too wide on the inside. Will you add spacers on the sides to bring the slides out?otherwise, your slides will never reach the drawers.

[@fabiofisherman3932]

Hi my friend i like your vídeos Do you translate in portuguese please

[@sailer5373]

Why would you use 3/4" ply for cabinets, especially wall hung cabinets. That's a lot of weight to hang on the wall, when you could use 1 /2" ?

[@fkalamo4]

The cabinet he made was a base cabinet not a wall hanging cabinet. You should revise your question as to what ply to use for wall hung cabinets.

[@abacab87]

You need 3/4 to fasten the face-frame to. Whether you glue them or nail or use pocket screws. The pre-built store cabinets are rabbeted into the faceframe, which would work.

[@wkeil1981]

I thought pocket hole screws facing away from the work was a week connection

[@freedomfighter3481]

how come you didn't show us the finished cabinet?

[@granjmy]

I think I heard a slight Tennessee accent. My Dad's from TN.

[@jakewalter3729]

Eeseeeeerr

[@bongobill2000]

You mentioned making rails and styles 2 different measurements....saying u would mention later but didn’t here anything.....??

[@ReinierKaper]

The styles were a bit wider to accommodate for the 1/8th inch overhang on the left and right. Also, some people prefer the vertical pieces to be slightly wider than the horizontal pieces, it's just aesthetics / matter of taste.
