Very well done,sir. Apologies if you have already heard this, but I learned somewhere that if you're cutting dados for shelves and want them to be perfect, it's easier to cut the dados first and then rip the board. That way you don't have to try and get everything perfectly lined up, clamp, etc. Subscribed to the channel and I'm excited to see what projects you've done and have coming up. God bless!
This is such an excellent design. I actually made myself a pull out pantry ( 6 inch wide) and about 5 feet tall ( on caster) next to the fridge for my basement apartment as there is a gap between the wall and the fridge.
You didnt comment much on the installation of the slides. Were they all mounted to the floor rather than the sides, and what was the Blum product number?
I apologize, I do need to start commenting more in my videos about my processes. They slides are attached to the bottom of the cabinet box and the bottom of my pull outs. I used the below website for my slides: www.woodworkerexpress.com/undermount-drawer-slides/?msclkid=a255c2a2e9691b783c61a60264342a49&**LP+-+NonTM+-+General&Undermount+Drawer+Slides&Undermount+Drawer+Slides
@ actually I talked with someone at Woodworker and she told me I couldn't use a 24" slide in a 24 inch deep pantry, and that most of their slides are side mounted. Bottom mounts don't come up after a search on their web site. Do you have the product # for the ones you used?
For slides in general you want the depth of the cabinet box which excludes the face frame. My undermount slides are installed on the bottom and have worked perfectly since the build. I did install regular slides on the very top for stability. These undermount slides hold 170 pounds which is far more than my cabinet fully loaded weighs.

These are called undermount drawer slides: www.woodworkerexpress.com/undermount-drawer-slides/?msclkid=a255c2a2e9691b783c61a60264342a49&**LP+-+NonTM+-+General&Undermount+Drawer+Slides&Undermount+Drawer+Slides
Thank you for the comment, I don't think I would do anything different on this project. I use this pantry daily and constantly get compliments on it from friends. I really like how we stained the inside instead of painting it white like my cabinets, in the future I will probably be staining all my cabinet interiors.
I'm about to build a very similar pantry. What slide did you use up top? And are they load bearing or do yhey just act as guides? I was considering two sets of the blums, with the top set mounted in a channel under the top of the "drawer" box.
I just used one full extension drawer slide right in the middle of each pull out as a guide. If you go with the two on top let me know how it turns out.
I made a pull out pantry after removing our chimney. Unfortunately i'm not a great Diy'er and there were a lot of errors i had to fix. Unfortunately the one that is left is when i attached the front panel its not true to the wall. I took off the panels and trued them as best i can. It has left me with 1/8" difference in gap from the top to the bottom. I need ideas to trim around it so the gap difference isn't noticable.
I hate that TH-cam doesn't allow pictures to see exactly what your issue is. My suggestion would be measure the difference and build a new cabinet face (practice makes perfect). Personally I think adding trim pieces makes the cabinets look bulky and out of style however if anyone else has any ideas please chime in. Let me know what you decide or if this helps at all.
@DIYCoastie part of the problem, I think, is that the wall isn't 100% flat and the cabinet itself is a little twisted. On the right side, which, of course, is hidden by the fridge, it's perfect. To take off the front panels and try to shim everything perfect will be a nightmare. If the front was 1 panel instead of 2, that would be much easier. I did manage to get it from being out 3/8" to only being 1/8".
Yeah, removing the cabinets and using shims can be very challenging and time consuming. How are you with drywall work? My suggestion would be forget about the cabinet and add some mud to the wall, building it out to your 1/8" and just feather it in to the rest of the wall so it isn't noticeable. This should make your cabinet doors visually perfect as long as that twist isn't too major/ noticeable.
@DIYCoastie I ended up using a 1/4" wood strip down the entire 1 side that's visible. I took a 1/8" paint stirrer stick and sanded it so it was 1/8" at the top and 1/16" at the bottom and used that to correct the gap. Glued all together and clamped. 1 piece moved so I will have to sand it flush and paint it but it looks much better.
We haven't had any issues with them, the undermount slides are rated at 170lbs and I don't believe they willl ever get close to filling up with that amount of weight. I will definitely post if anything starts acting up with them.
I used undermount drawer slides like this: www.woodworkerexpress.com/slides-undermount-blum-movento-full-ext-undermount-slides-769-hd-24-s.html?source=googlebase&country=US&gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQiA-62tBhDSARIsAO7twbYWGq45MHL5T3KByPqWCPaarfHCBTSL3evW3YdIKW67GrCEMQN_VWQaAoxSEALw_wcB I would suggest your undermount drawer slides be able to support at least 170lbs depending upon the size of your project. For the top I just used a regular drawer slide as a guide to keep it stable when it gets pulled out.
Scratch the thru holes since you dont have doors, but end faces. Theyn do look nice and hopefully will be solid when loaded and yanked out 500 times a year.
you just saved me! i dom't know why there is no more tutorials about this fabolous idea on youtube. But We have similars Pantry and i am about to do the same, Could you please attach the link for the sliders?
Use the website below, I chose the 170-pound slides so I would not have to worry about overloading the cabinet. The website below will have multiple different size undermount slides so just get the ones for your cabinet depth. I also chose the full extension, soft close. Let me know if you need any more help. www.woodworkerexpress.com/Undermount-Drawer-Slides/?msclkid=a255c2a2e9691b783c61a60264342a49&**LP%20-%20NonTM%20-%20General&Undermount%20Drawer%20Slides&Undermount%20Drawer%20Slides
Really needed a much better show-off of the finished product. I am planning to make it go all the way to the floor, with wheels underneath to support the weight, and each unit wider.
@@DIYCoastie Track at the top, and straight line, not rotating casters on the bottom. I plan to drastically cut expensive kitchen cabinet space and replace most storage with custom pull-out pantry. Same thing in the bedroom. Huge walk-in closets are a giant waste of space. Plan to use pull-out closet/wardrobe. When the time comes, I may even make it electric like a garage door. Touch a button and out it comes. One could choose to organize by season. During summer one rack comes out, and winter use the other rack. And too many people do not use over/under closet rods. Shirts and most clothes will fit over under with 2 rods high. A few things like evening gowns, trench coats and such need full height, but that is it.
The front faces shouud have a few vertical slots cut out for visual and replaced with either Acrylic or Wire frame, So you have more iof a clue what is in each pullout If the thing was alum channel the slots woud all be there, as the sapce out.

I like how the missus inspect your craftmanship to make sure youve done it according to her standards!😀
Great Idea all pantry's should be like this. Good Job.
Very nice, wish I had someone to make me shelf’s like those!
The ones that have those who can make stuff for you don’t appreciate what they have done for them. Cost or skill. Always busy. Lots of skills.
I love it, best use of small space!
Yes! I use it daily and it holds so many pantry items. I love how easy it is to access without having to reach to the back of a cabinet.
Amazing idea and execution!
Just subscribed 😊
Thank You!
Looking for plans for a pull out spice and wine cabinet. Stumbled on yours. It is awesome. Wish you could make one for me.
Awesome work!!!
Thank you!

Great work; I will probably copy some of it.

Looks good but I think those sliders are going to be overloaded. When your pantry is full is asking a lot for just two drawer slides.

Your kitchen is what I want, except the corner pull out. Overall I think you do well!
Thank you

@6:45 That sure as hell doesn't look like plywood. That looks like untempered MDF.
You are right, I build my door frames with 3/4" MDF. I found there is far less movement with mdf and it paints great.
