DIY Budget Bathroom Cabinet

- I like pallets - they're free! They do however take a tonne of time to get ready to work with. I needed something built quickly, so I spent 3 weeks building a cabinet from sheet material 😏
This is my first cabinet! Follow along as I share my mistakes and successes. Full price breakdown at the end of the video.

Nothing wrong with sparks in the motor of your mitre saw. It's a brushed motor so sparking is normal
So I don't need a new tool? 😪
Look who's back! Lol So good to see you back on here Ben! I have to say, I'm impressed with the carpentry skills! 👏🏼 The clear coat doesn't look as bad as you think! And thanks again for the enjoyable content!
So glad to be back! Thank you for the kind words. I have to admit, I've already stopped noticing the finish now it's in the bathroom!
Your my type of handyman , stuff all planning and winging it all the way .Several stuff ups and stuff working out well when you least expect it
Hi a great job well done, remember one you're not just learning you're showing other people and they are learning that's a wonderful thing. Keep going it's nice to have you back be happy be safe. Re-Bob-U.K.....
£43 🤣😂 once you realised you had spent £53 did you feel like you had been ripped off 😂🤪. You should have taken a close up picture of the doors when installed in the bathroom!
Just finished my first cabinet doors about 4 hours ago. I had the same exact reaction when I did my dry fit.
Working on my first cabinets (well, first ones with doors that go in the house at least), and I had that same reaction with my first door. I've mostly avoided making cabinets or anything that had to fit into a certain space up until now (you can just plop an end table down anywhere, doesn't really matter what exact size it is). Something very satisfying about getting things to fit just right though...
Glad to see you back, keep it up!
Just leaving a comment to get the algorithm cranked up again 😁 Top job mate and good to see you back!
great video but do yourself a favour and please wear a mask when cutting especially on insulation board, you dont want that stuff in your lungs mate
The sparks means your brushes might be on the way out, nothing "wrong" with it, theyre a part thats designed to wear out... if the wife askes though tell her youtube said its about to explode and you need to buy an extra nice one next time
Great video. Whatever you do, do not go back and look at what you made in your first few videos! You have come a long way. You are now concerned about the width of the gap between the doors. You even made shaker styled doors. Well done, you! I hope the missus is on the mend as well. We need her wry sense of humor (or humour).
Haha I know I shouldn't worry about it compared to where I was 2 years ago buy I think it's in our nature! 🤣
Ah mate! Clearly out of your comfort zone but you smashed it!! Great job
Way out of it but loved the process!
"Look what I did!" That is 100% my reaction -- out loud, too -- when I get something to work when woodworking! (Glad to see ya back!) Just like you, I hear the "time is money" comment quite often. Here's my response to it: "I don't have the money, but I do have the time!"
🤣🤣 I've always told myself I'm good with 'practical' things but in reality, I have no patience. So when you see me excited, it's real as I always bank on the outcome having a 50% chance of being firewood. Take care mate.
An algorithm [it seems like they are the ones who control us] directed me to your channel. very entertaining! congratulations… if you ever come to lisbon, portugal, I would love to drink a gin, or whatever, with you ;)
It works sometimes! Would love to take you up on that offer one day. I was last in Portugal as a kid but visited the Azores a couple of years ago - one of the best holidays I've ever had. Love the Portugese attitude to food too - season it, grill it, enjoy with a beer!
Call programmer, you show your mistakes. That's brilliant some TH-cam people don't show their mistakes. Thank you for being real. I Learn lot from you Keep up with the good work.
If I edited out all my mistakes, there wouldn't be much content! 🤣🤣
You saved £200.00 pal, those weren't mistakes they were some very cheap woodworking lessons and you've got a box to put your sink on for free 😁😁🧐🧐
totally agree. I couldn't believe the total cost when I was adding it up. I know I didn't include paint and spray but still!
Outstanding work! Doors look great! Nice improvisation, too. And yeah, toot your own horn. I get the same kind of thrill when something comes together perfectly. Keep it up!
It's a lovely buzz to get! Cheers mate
Awesome. Even if it costs the same and looks the same, you're going to have a better made product for the same price and you get valuable experience
100% this!
Great video... as usual. Your enthusiasm is infectious and always a joy to behold. The cabinet looks great and really looking forward to the media centre build. Take care, and I'll see you on the next one 👍
Cheers mate, appreciate that. I'm looking forward to it and dreading it in equal parts! I'm going to break it down into several sections and release it as 'series'.
man, it looks lovely!!
The audio seems good at least to me and I know some people might not enjoy it, but i really enjoyed and even laugh where you were adjusting the camera. somehow it looks we are there "whooooaaaaa" kind of thing ^^
Welcome back!! couldn't be happier when i saw your thumbnail in the feed =)
Cheers for the feed back mate. I wasn't sure about leaving the camera move in but it seemed to fit with the music! Appreciate your kind words
Good to see you back at it mate the sound quality is spot on and I know you're probably still beating yourself up over that spray work but I think overall you did a banging job on this and you should be proud of it. The sparks in the saw are normal it's the brushes so don't worry about it. Looking forward to the next project fella
Cheers buddy. It's great to be back at it. Had such a good time with this project, already getting sorted for the next one!
Loved the reaction when you made the door. You have every right to be proud when you make something good. Why did you not use a roller for the paint?
Still can't believe I got those doors first time. I did contemplate a roller but I've heard divided opinion about the finish you get from it. Saw a lot of people say use a roller then dry brush after. Do you get more success with a roller?
Even "IF" the finish on the doors isn't exactly what you wanted you SAVED 80% by building the cabinet yourself. Great job! The end product really does look great! Cheers!
Yeah, I feel really positive about it all. I don't mean to sound negative, just want to share what I'm learning so people don't make the same mistakes! Cheers mate
@@justbswoodworking And I love that about your content. You aren't afraid to show your mistakes 😁
Like all your videos it was a great watch. Just curious what was the name of the wood dye you used for the pine?
Its from a company called Littlefairs. they have a website. It's about £20 a litre but I probably used 50ml for all the parts in this project. We tried a lot (as we're using it for all our skirts, frames etc.) and this was the best we found.
Looks great. Don't fret the small stuff, no one else will.
Cheers mate, no one ever notices but us!
on your cabinet doors the tongues were too short needed to be at least double what you had to make assembly easier and to provide greater glue surfaces to make the joint stronger
Very true. I'm in that awkward osition of using the tools I have and I cannot trust my table saw as I was bought from a budget super market!
Great job every job is a lesson🙂
100% true. Loving trying some of these tried and tested joinery methods. I find it reassuring knowing that I still have a tonne of basic things left to learn!
Great job. Looks great. Love the out takes hahaha
haha cheers mate. One things for sure, I'm a muppet so there's always going to be outakes to include if you guys like them!
@evolution send this man a tablesaw
🤣 If only!
M8 what a banging job that looks stunning. You should be well proud. Oh btw 33 quid for sheet 18mm ply think a got quoted 64 from mkn aswell up here. On the finish just a thought 1000 grit wet dry paper as a de nib style might take some the inconsinsties out I've done it before with streaky varnish finish did help a must say. And yea we won't talk abouy this weather just now. Email soon 🏴👍
Cheers buddy, pleased with it really, just annoyed at the finish. Just checked now and the ply is up to £40 a sheet. Glad I got enough to see me through the next project!
@@justbswoodworking deffo man that's mental ave just checked mkn up here 48 quid for softwood ply is best a can get it hardwood ply 56 I have no idea. 😬🤔 Still looked wicked though m8 even with the iffy finish Catch up soon. Can't wait for next video 🏴👍
Great video! Glad you are back. Btw I have a tip for the stickers on the plywood. Use an iron to melt the glue. They peel right off with no residue.
I'll have to give it a try. Especially as I'm now the kinda guy that irons wood in a garage!
@@justbswoodworking 😂
The sparks in the mitre saw are probably the brushes. They'll just need replacing as they are a consumable 😊 (though if you need justification for a new tool, you need a new tool 😂)
I read your comment as 'get a new saw' 🤣
@@justbswoodworking oh, most certainly 😉
Man, autocorrect is crazy these days!
Here we go. Ive just started but will come back once watched it all but shared it on my socials m8👍🏴
