I enjoy and appreciate these videos from Brad from fix this build that. Very good explanations and who the heck would take that much time to not just build a smokeless fire pit but take the viewers on the journey to find out what works best. I'm retired and new to doing any major builds. Never to old to learn and with help like this I can actually keep busy doing some fun stuff myself. Thanks Mr Brad!
Gosh I love the care and thoughtfulness that goes into your builds. I buy pre-made furniture that is never as good as the custom jobs you feature in your videos.
As an aspiring woodworker, your mantra of, “Mistakes were made,” is perhaps the most life-giving admission currently on the internet. I often feel I make nothing but mistakes as I learn this craft and it’s very reassuring to know that it isn’t just me. Thank you for sharing your content in a candid and relatable way. It gives me hope and encourages me to get back out there and keep trying until I figure it out. You do great work and bring a sense of humor, humility, and honesty that is sorely needed in this world. Keep up the awesome work.
Another nice build. Good tip on checking the factory edges of plywood. In many of your other builds that required panels is doors, you always sneak up on the groove size and with your expertise ... they always come out great. Ever consider using a kerf maker tool ? I started using one and it has made life a bit easier. Aloha
I enjoyed how the secret panel worked. I never considered to do molding on top of the face frame for built-ins. I wasn't sure why the spacing between the cabinets until you did the molding afterwards. Nice and clean look.
Have you ever looked into Zipwall? I LOVE mine. They are spring loaded poles. They will go up to the ceiling. Just add plastic. I have a large space for my shop. So I leave them up all the time usually. But they go up and down so easy. And they keep the overspray in the “paint booth”. And the dust out. I don’t have it up right now because I haven’t been spraying. But its also great for just having hand finished items in there. Then you can continue working making sawdust while the paint/finish dries.
I always rip about a 32nd of an inch off the factory edge on my sheet goods. Then I use TSO’s parallel guide to rip parallel to the edge I established. From there I use another TSO product their track square and cross cut. I don’t even take them to the table saw unless I need to cut dados or rabbets. Love your videos so thought I’d chime in ✊🏾
Great work, absolutely loved the ending when you threw the can down. I reference that part of the movie all the time and it was hilarious to see it here.
I came for the woodworking but stayed for the excellent humour throughout. Also, those shelves look really nice and I love the reveal on those inset doors.
Brad, I just recently got into woodworking and stumbled upon your channel. I love all of your content and you do such an amazing job on camera as well as with the building! Keep up the great work and thanks for being an inspiration!
I had a similar space when we did a remodel (did not do it myself). I put 24-inch-deep full extension drawers on the bottom where you have doors and pushed the 12 in shelves all the way to the back. Thor's hammer is brilliant.
My first thought for how to open up the secret panel would be to just use a suction cup to pull on it. Either that or put more magnets right in the middle and then use something ferromagnetic to pull on those. Using Mjölnir to enclose the magnet is a cute idea.
I have been going nuts on my last couple projects trying to figure out why my panels weren't square. Never occurred to me that the factory edges might be out of square. Thanks for the heads up!
I feel your pain on the prices. I screwed up a few drawer boxes with my 1/2” Baltic birch stock. Called for price and availability from my local plywood dealer he started off with “ You know there’s a war going on right now…” $$$$🤦🏻
5:11 I was waiting for the wood filler! My parents in law had their kitchen redone with some very fancy burl paneling, but the contractors shot you-nails through in random places and didn’t even bother to cover them. I didn’t have the heart to point it out.
Hola! 🖐Nice project and cool video. What a GREAT tip to check the factory edge to confirm for square on these sheets of plywood. Take care and have a good one, Adios! 👊
Great build and I love it. However my favorite part is how you use Mjolnir to open up the secret panel and it's also used as a kickstand to hold the panel up. I need that Mjolnir!!!
Great project. I’m about to make some shelves. But I’m curious about something. I am making free standing shelves. They will be in the middle of the room. They will act as room dividers. Is there anything you would suggest?
Love the build Brad! I'm getting ready to do my own built-ins soon so you may have tempted me with the insert doors. This might just need a Sunday Night Live to discuss.😉
When making the grooves for the front panels is there anyway to use a push stick or similar? I would like to do this but I would be very nervous about using my hands like you did. (Not safety police, just don't have the skill/confidence to do it myself). Great video!
Great video. You have some really cool editing skills. I can't even make a TH-cam video. I tried a few times but gave it up. I'll just stick with my woodworking and vintage radio restorations. The two kind of work together at times.
Beautiful project and great use of space! As someone just starting out attempting to make his first cabinet panels, I have a question regarding wood selection for painting. The plywood you used seemed to take the paint beautifully, but I’m having issues with still seeing the grain after multiple passes of primer/sanding. Does your video skip this slow, painful sanding part, or is there a specific plywood grade you’re using that doesn’t require it? Thanks for any advice!!
that method of making door panels is how we do it at the cabinet shop i work at, only difference is we have a routing table instead of using a dato blade, but good ingenuity on your part!
Brad, perfect timing on this build as I'm doing some shelves for a bookcase wall. Question if I may: Which Wagner sprayer are you using at 7:23? btw, love your mobile miter saw stand. I can move it all over my house for various projects!

OMG! I was thinking you should use a magnet to open the secret panel. But then you brought out the Thor hammer. That was pure genius!!!
Same! my thought was a necklace or something but thor's hammer is much cooler!
Your builds are fantastic- love your positive attitude, attention to details, and humor. Thanks for the inspiration.

Thanks, Tom! I've gotta check one of those out. have always seen them but never used one.
How is this comment three hours old when the video was only released 40 minutes ago? 🤔

Your editing is on point 👊 Nice work!
Thanks, Scott! Chris is doing a bang up job, way better than I could do 😀
I love the secret compartment, and opening it with Thor's hammer is just awesome. Nice build, great video as always Brad!
Good morning Brad from Arizona. Love your work, thanks for sharing.
thank you!
I like how he works keeping every thing clear to its audience and keeping his workstation super clean

The Mjölmir idea is brilliant! You’re a genius!

I have seen those. Been thi king about them for years since you know my hatred for dust 😂😂
Content is top shelf (pun intended), enjoy the instructions and the presenting, a great watch!
Great craftsmanship and very enjoyable to watch and learn!
Mjölnir, Dew and Where's the Beef. A very fun build indeed. Great stuff!
Thanks, Nils! Gotta play to my strengths, or maybe my vices 😂😂

Tigerblood Jewel. Very nice!
Great tunes!
Such a goof! I love it!
“Me nails” is exactly the kind of dad jokes that keep me coming back for more. That, and great projects explained well!
That was my favorite part of the video 😂
Me nails took me a few seconds to get lol
Cool, I like the last 2 minutes of your finish (tour) "It can be only the one😁..!" Pure genius!!
Great build and very entertaining without the overdone silliness that so many others think is necessary!! Looking forward to more of your videos!

Beautiful work, Brad! 😃
The secret space is brilliant!
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
You build great things as well as being quite the entertainer. Thanks for sharing your projects.
Man you always have some cool projects... Looking forward to seeing the next one! Keep it up 💪🏻
A 3D printed Thor hammer - awesome!
Yes sir! Probably gonna do a Short on how I made it and the release mechanism.
@@Fixthisbuildthat looks like just a stronger magnet

Great build and video, thanks!
your videos are great....you have come so far.....not only in the work but in the editing, and content.
Brad you killed it. This man is a treasure and needs to be protected!
Great project, but the secret stash reveal was over the top fantastic!
Thanks for the walk through of the design and planning
Thank you so much for the Thor reference! He's my favorite, also.

That was entertaining. Thanks be to you for worthy content.
As an amateur I really appreciate that you use safety equipment and keep guard on table saw
Good job, looks great
Great job on the cabinet doors and overall build. The thing looks fantastic!
Great mountain Dew advert. They should really pay you for that. 😆 🤣. Love your channel.

Shameless plug... love it. *salute*
Great build, Brad. The "ME" nails are back!
Bill
This video is great.... ANOTHER!
great build
Appreciate it!
Nice build. Like the secret stash.
Great project.
I’m about to make some shelves. But I’m curious about something. I am making free standing shelves. They will be in the middle of the room. They will act as room dividers. Is there anything you would suggest?
I'd make sure they are either secured to the floor or ceiling. Don't want anything moving when it's not supposed to!
Nice. liking the stash box
Awesome build and nice socks! Those Puma socks are one of my favorite finds from Costco. 😆
nice job! enjoyed the video.
Love the build Brad! I'm getting ready to do my own built-ins soon so you may have tempted me with the insert doors. This might just need a Sunday Night Live to discuss.😉
Awesome job! Love the secret stash idea!
Terrific build Brad! Really like that secret stash area. Now you have a good place to store all of your contraband items! 👍👍😂😂
Very nice build , really like the look it cave your room . Excellent job & video , enjoyed .
Cool video. Love the cabinet and shelf set up.
This video was great! Well done!
Looks great - as always! Keep up the great work!
I would do some kind of fan for the Xbox, I build something similar and kept my ps4 in it and it kept overheating. Looks great 👍🏼
Was thinking the same thing. That small cabinet shelf looks like a decent heat trap. Definitely needs some venting or a fan.
Wow, your amazing funny and very talented. Beautiful bookshelf I loved it. Thanks for sharing 💕👏🏼
When I get my own house, I’m becoming this man! Workshop and everything.
Lol 😂 “me nails” 😝
First time i see someone what to do when a box is not square, thanks for that
Absolutely epic ending!
Love it that is great you do great work.
3:52 Dude that editing was CLEAN. Lol

Thumbs up for incorporating "strangely." It means, 'in an unusual or surprising way' such as "This will go together strangely."
Beautiful project and great use of space! As someone just starting out attempting to make his first cabinet panels, I have a question regarding wood selection for painting. The plywood you used seemed to take the paint beautifully, but I’m having issues with still seeing the grain after multiple passes of primer/sanding. Does your video skip this slow, painful sanding part, or is there a specific plywood grade you’re using that doesn’t require it? Thanks for any advice!!
This is an excellent project your video has great detail.
I am wondering though you didn’t glue your door frame boards! What there a reason?
Because end grain glue bonds are fairly weak, and the glue between the face frame and cabinet is what will hold everything together and in place 👍
Awesome endind!
that method of making door panels is how we do it at the cabinet shop i work at, only difference is we have a routing table instead of using a dato blade, but good ingenuity on your part!
Really great video and great editing :)
Lumber prices are crazy right now. Where we are one sheet of 3/4" x 4 x 8 Baltic birch plywood is $179.99.
Your channel is a new discovery to me. Love the projects. Shared with the husband too. You really need to kick that mtn dew habit. ☠️
Measure thrice is nice! 🤣
got to with lumber prices these days 😀
Those came out great! What kind of paint did you use?
Excellent as usual
I have a thing about magnets, I love them.. This is great! I made an invisible key ring 'hook' with a couple neodymiums
Great info. “Me like it!” - Hulk. I have a few places this can work.
