I appreciate the honesty of "mistakes were made." Screwing the first sheet of 3/4" ply to the wall and then glueing the 1/2" sheet to it thereby hiding the first set of screws is something I could see myself doing. Glad I can learn about "things to think about" before jumping into my projects, even if it's not something exactly the same.
Perhaps you could locate the screws in the 3/4" piece with magnets, then use a hole saw (large enough to offset it & not hit the screw with the central bit) to cut away the 1/2" layer above it, hopefully not needing to do too much prying/chiseling to get the circles out..?
Great build. I built my clamp rack out of pallet wood. My only pallet wood project. BTW I saw what you did at 3:05. Flicked the offcut out of the way with your thumb. I did that too until about a week ago. In a moment of inattention I flicked a little too soon and flicked the saw blade. I probably would have been a lot less painful with a SawStop, but it will get well in a month or two. Don't do as I did.
@@matthewsmith8573 Possibly, but I think the glue is hidden because it's more dangerous to drink than bourbon...it's a safety measure in the workshop. 😂
I built a small French Cleat clamp rack a few weeks ago and was super proud of it. But this is far and above a way better solution for storage. Nice work as always!
Awesome book that gives you step-by-step photos th-cam.com/users/postUgkxTNB_zFBSnTo_O1PqfVUwgi7ityw0JlKt and directions to make every day project. I can see myself making a few of these projects and giving them as housewarming and holiday gifts!
LOVE!! that Nicks handmade boots banner! caught my eye right when I saw it, they are from where I'm located in Spokane Wa! I like to see the local support!
Nice project. If you put a roll of green material at the bottom you can roll out, it would also enable you to include your whole body+feet in your green screen effects when you want it.
Went to get some clamps at Home Depot and they were all out of stock. Now I know why. Lol. Joking aside…this is a fantastic cabinet and I love the design. I don’t have nearly as many clamps but this cabinet could be organized with so many things. Thank you. Love the green screen also. Brilliant.
I would recommend a sharp chisel for removing the excess plug material. It's even faster than the saw and leaves a perfect finish. Heck of a sweet project.
I think considering that summer is here, it might be fun for you to build the best of Cornhole Boards ever. It’s a great beginner project and useful. Thanks for great videos.
Nice. I’d did something similar adding two swing doors that were k- mart steel framed peg board displays. Stepped it away from cabinet with 2x4 on hing side. Has worked out great they came with adjustable shelves as well. So now I have a handy clamp racks with short pegs on the inside for most used hand tools along with harbor freight mag strips. Opened up I have full access to my shelves full of hard ware on one and power tools on the other. Even made a small job site type pace with a light and shallow shelves for nail gun nails and my pocket hole and screws. It has saved me endless steps on projects and tickled me very time I use the wood shop area. Great vid brother.
Great build, Jason! I kinda need to build myself a clamp storage too. I like your funny appearances over the main video. The green wall should help with that and not only.
Genius idea on the shelf brackets and the angle iron. The cabinet isn't bad either :). These things from Rockler are a fortune. It's nice to learn things while you're being entertained. Nice job!
You could use magnets to keep the door closed. You could counter sink some earth magnets and then use some of those awesome plugs that you made to cover up the holes and protect the magnets from breaking.
I wish I just had the lumber to be able to build half the bad ass stuff you do,well tools also. I have alot of tools but nothing like you have.this is one of my favorite channels to watch. Keep on being a badass!!!
Great Vid! Love the green screen idea. I've been considering building a bar cabinet for a little while with a mini fridge for beer and chasers (have 60-70 spirits bottles in my kitchen cabinets right now). I've always been worried about the piano hinge not being strong enough to hold the door with many bottles in it: so I loved your caster wheel idea, just thought it wasnt really good looking, and then you hid it! Nice touch, will definitely use this for my build. Love the content!
What an awesome storage for clamps! 🤌😍 To prevent it from self-opening you should’ve put several pieces of paper (or paper stickers, or tape…) along the entire height on the left of the cabinet before fastening the piano hinges, it wouldn’t open itself. My father had made a folding door before I made one. Thank him, my one is a bit better now 😏 at least it doesn’t close or open itself.
Found your channel today! AWESOME!!! You had me at Bourbon and Home Depot! Employed 17 years with them. Only question I have is where is the Angels Envy Bourbon? If you haven’t had it that will most likely be the only piece of great advice I could offer! Thanks for your amazing talented videos! ❤️
I made a triple thick version of this but much smaller and hung on a wall for smaller tools and small parts,etc. I used leftover cedar boards and the sagging was ridiculous after. I like how you used maple and the castor on the floor. I hope you do more space saving shop storage projects in the future.
This was one of my favorite episodes. That cabinet is *so* versatile in so many areas of the home, I can’t stand it. While I am in no way qualified to comment, I do have a small suggestion…. In keeping of the theme of it being a secret storage cabinet, might I suggest using magnets along the edge and then installing two very slender finger tabs at some point that you can just kind of click to open. I believe the latch is too revealing of the glorious clamp storage which you created within. Also, LOVE the green screen, can.not. wait to see what you do with it.
5:10 "So I decided to plop another piece of half-inch ply on top of my three-quarter-inch ply to bring the full thickness out to about $350". That's how I feel every time I think about any project these days. It's depressing.
Next time when securing shelves is to clamp your square right to the bottom of your shelf location. That way you have something to hold the shelf in place while you screw it. Great video, really enjoying your content!
With a green screen it is a good idea to light yourself from the back with a rim light (colored if you want to be fancy) that cuts out the green cast from the back and helps you stand out better when you superimpose yourself on another video. Makes it look all professional and a little less flat.
Yeah, my Dream Clamp Storage begins with dreaming of clamps I don’t have! I went online to find Camps Galore and was disappointed to discover nobody has yet opened a clamps-only retailer. Incredible.
Jason, great build and video! Always entertaining and I pick up a few of your techniques along the way. Really impressed how strong that piano hinge is. I may try one of these in an upcoming project. Thank you for posting!
Great build. I have a few observations. * You can tell how non-level the floor is right there. I could see light under the caster when the front shelf was fully open. 🤔 * I was fully expecting the youngest to not want to do the painting so he got you to do the painting (just to come around full circle). 😂 * Missed pun opportunity not calling the hard maple "rock maple" with all your mentions of building it "rock solid". 🤣 As always, a fun and funny build video!
I showed this to my wife and she said, "Why would you want a big cabinet like that? You don't have many clamps". I said, "I know." Then, it hit her...I wanted to build one to buy more clamps. She gave me that look that told me I was just fantasizing and there would be no way she'd let me buy enough clamps to fill a cabinet like that, so no need to build it. Now, I'm sad. Thanks a lot, Jason...LOL
Question about the shelves: I’m sure they’re wedged in there nice and tight, but what’s to keep them from sagging over time? Didn’t see you glue them to the back panels or screw from the back on the front cabinet.
When I need to hang some clamps, I just buy a clamp and clamp it to a couple clamps then just clamp the whole thing onto one big clamp, which clamps onto a shelf or something. this saves money.
I made a similar mistake in my temporary shop - screwed 1/2” ply to the wall to mount French cleats which I glued and nailed. Covered enough of the screws that it lives there permanently now even after I moved to my full time shop… live and learn…
Another great vid. A couple of quick queries/suggestions. 1. Did you think about having storage on the interior of the pivoting section instead of a green screen to maximise storage? 2. Did you consider keeping all your tools in a pile on the workshop floor? Its a technique that i pioneered and have been testing for some time now. Slainte'
You might need to upgrade the hinges if you're storing on both sides of the moving panel rather than just the outside. You've also doubled the amount of inconvenient storage i.e. the stuff you have to open the door before grabbing.
Hmm I think you need more clamps, and another clamp storage unit. 🤔 this is such an awesome piece! On my list to replicate now.... for my growing clamp collection.
It’s probably been mentioned, but a little trick is to put a strip of painter’s tape on your plugs before you cut them out. That way you don’t spend an hour picking plugs up from the shop floor 😉
Yes, I agree 6:12 it's a doofus move... How in the sphincter of hell are you ever gonna remove the sheet... I like the idea though, a thin cabinet with extra storage.
I appreciate the honesty of "mistakes were made." Screwing the first sheet of 3/4" ply to the wall and then glueing the 1/2" sheet to it thereby hiding the first set of screws is something I could see myself doing. Glad I can learn about "things to think about" before jumping into my projects, even if it's not something exactly the same.
I like how every project is becoming just a place for the bourbon to go
Better than moths :)
Perhaps you could locate the screws in the 3/4" piece with magnets, then use a hole saw (large enough to offset it & not hit the screw with the central bit) to cut away the 1/2" layer above it, hopefully not needing to do too much prying/chiseling to get the circles out..?
I appreciate you your bottles are securely clamped into place.

I like how the bourbon is showing and the wood glue is hidden. With my friends you’d want to hide the bourbon. 😂
I thought that was odd -- but realized shelf depth may have been the deciding factor.
@@matthewsmith8573 Possibly, but I think the glue is hidden because it's more dangerous to drink than bourbon...it's a safety measure in the workshop. 😂
I think Jason had to decide which will he use more which then meant he needed easy access to the bourbon
@@artefactsbubble3742... and additional shelves
@@artefactsbubble3742 measure twice, drink once?
Super clamp cabinet. Love it.
That green screen feature is clever. These videos always put new ideas in my head, not only as a maker, but as a newer content creator..
22:30 "why not - I'm screwing everything else.." 😂 quote of the day, thanks for this

The latch was a lost opportunity for some magnets, for the "hidden" storage to stay even more hidden.
yep, and its quite possible to remake into that. and with strong enough magnets even make them hidden too
I really like this one and will keep it in mind for when my house is rebuild this time with an added on wood shop. This is perfect. Thanks

Thanks for sharing your family and friends on this episode, that a great job
Hey, one of your best videos out there. Very enjoyable to watch. Thank you and congratz for this cool project!
That‘s some useful rationalization on using all those clamps - I think I‘ll appropriate that!
I would recommend a sharp chisel for removing the excess plug material. It's even faster than the saw and leaves a perfect finish. Heck of a sweet project.

The whiskey display is AMAZING!
This was such a fun video, guys. The boys were adorable. Love the storage idea.
Thank you, I was looking for options last night. Truly enjoy the videos!

look at 19:42 the wheel isn't touching the concrete. so the hinge is taking the brunt of the weight when he swing it open all the way.

You have good taste in bourbon! I am liking your work more and more.
Tuesday morning upload threw me off. Nice video.
love the humor, thanks for sharing from the Netherlands
Work was grinding me today glad to see a video from you to brighten things up!
This is a genius idea. Taking notes for building my own shop....
I agree about the Whiskey
Has to be the strangest storage compilation in a shop that I've seen! Cheers!
Great style! The project is awesome, too!
very good idea good job I really like your videos the way you explain the whole process step by step. 👌👍👍👍👏👏👏

Love the clamps storage! I only hope to own that many clamps...
You're a clever lad, Jason Hibbs. Now you'rve earned a shot of single malt!
I made a triple thick version of this but much smaller and hung on a wall for smaller tools and small parts,etc. I used leftover cedar boards and the sagging was ridiculous after. I like how you used maple and the castor on the floor. I hope you do more space saving shop storage projects in the future.
I'm glad I'm not the only one to use shelf hangers to hold my clamps
Muy buen trabajo felicitaciones 👍👍👍👍

This was one of my favorite episodes. That cabinet is *so* versatile in so many areas of the home, I can’t stand it.
While I am in no way qualified to comment, I do have a small suggestion….
In keeping of the theme of it being a secret storage cabinet, might I suggest using magnets along the edge and then installing two very slender finger tabs at some point that you can just kind of click to open. I believe the latch is too revealing of the glorious clamp storage which you created within.

Even better than the project is that little guy's dance. 😂
That would work great in my kitchen as well as my shop great job❤
The cabinet turned out great , good idea

@@mattbecker743 because he built a small one into this project
If you're getting really bad green glow, you should stand further away from the screen.
Great work! Very nice addition to any shop.

I went online to find Camps Galore and was disappointed to discover nobody has yet opened a clamps-only retailer. Incredible.
fantastic addition to your shop. now all your whiskey is organized.
very nice. I would prolly use hidden magnets to keep it closed as opposed to the latch. just to keep to the "hidden book case" theme
I'm amazed you made that HUGE clamp storage rack - so inefficiently - you had to store clamps on the wall next to it!
The best part is the green screen. I’m sure we’re all confident that Jason won’t overdo or abuse this new power. Lol.
whiskey and power tools. perfect combo
Contest sounds awesome. I bet it would be real fun. Can't really build much in my shop. Lol

I've been watching you for quite a while, now. I think you have what it takes to be next (New Yankee Workshop) Keep up the good work.
Building one now, you solved my clamp storage problem!
Jason, great build and video! Always entertaining and I pick up a few of your techniques along the way. Really impressed how strong that piano hinge is. I may try one of these in an upcoming project. Thank you for posting!

As always, a fun and funny build video!
I was just going to ask how you did your sliding clamp storage from watching your shop tour. Then you release this. Perfect.
I showed this to my wife and she said, "Why would you want a big cabinet like that? You don't have many clamps". I said, "I know." Then, it hit her...I wanted to build one to buy more clamps.

Looks like its time to build another boat, that project seemed to require a lot of clamps! Beautiful as always, and love the inclusion of the kids
He can build a yacht now... 😂

I appreciate that he removed the door to his shop just so we could see him install the piano hinge haha
Magnets instead of latch an idea? Seems nicer! Great video as always.
Exactly what I'm needing right now! In the process of building my new shop from scratch
I made a similar mistake in my temporary shop - screwed 1/2” ply to the wall to mount French cleats which I glued and nailed. Covered enough of the screws that it lives there permanently now even after I moved to my full time shop… live and learn…
Plugging those holes in the top was a really smart idea.
Without zooming in, I could pick out the Elijah Craig right away!!!! Awesome project ;-)

You are build some amazing stuff. But I like that you are so "goofy" :P I do laugh alot when I watch your vids. Keep it up !:D
Very nice shop project! You can never have enough clamps ;)
Great idea for storage. You make great videos
I love that shop foreman.
Why didn't you use a magnet instead of a clamp for the compartment?
Nice always a fan of secret storage
Yes, I agree 6:12 it's a doofus move... How in the sphincter of hell are you ever gonna remove the sheet... I like the idea though, a thin cabinet with extra storage.
That is fing awesome 😊
0:45 I don't believe that you will come to Canada...Great project as usual.
Nice work but I agree with the other guy. Whiskey on the inside. Oh yeah, I didn’t get the invite yet to check out the bar.
Briliant. Would it work with all 3/4 inch ply?
Nice idea love it great idea I was just looking what the hell am I gonna do with all my clamps and guess who showed up on a video you
