Thank you Jason. I am remodeling my shop and installing 20ish new cabinets. These videos have made the process much easier, and it does not feel like a chore.
Hi Jason, I’m a kitchen / cabinet layout designer and hobbyist woodworker. Just wanted to let you know that I’ve scoured several of your videos and just wanted to thank you for what your doing and what you share. It’s been extremely helpful for me as a novice woodworker / cabinet builder to figure out the obstacles you’ve already traversed. I very much appreciate the information that your sharing and you truly have inspired me to carry forward with my woodworking goals. FYI, I’m also a highly skilled graphic designer with many years of experience with a background in architecture and design. If you are considering exploring branding inspiration, whether it be be an iconic mark that represents your brand or something as simple as an optimized profile pic, please let me know, I where a lot of hats on this realm. Thanks again! I’m also setting up my workshop with many new tools; including: - table saw - planer - joiner - chop saw - track saw Just ordered the 563h 15” Blum Drawer Slides and can’t wait to adapt my design to them and get to cuttin! 🤪
I was not always ready to use metric measurements but you have shown me that when we are building something from scratch it is easier to work with. Thanks also love these types of drawer slides.
@@boyo1348 Right! It’s literally his friggin job (not just a fun hobby for him), & as such, he _requires_ good tools! Having/using good tools increases/improves efficiency, productivity, quality, etc., etc… and time is money. 🤷♀️😊
Great video. Love the trick of using the nailer as the measure to cut the dado groove for the back panel. Also like the trick of applying the edge banding prior to cutting everything down to size. And... not having to use a ton of clamps to square things up makes things so much easier and faster. I'm a female DIYer, but I love my projects to look professional and not like they were DIY'd. This video is going into my "Saves" so I can reference it the next time I have to build cabinets. I've also just switched from Imperial to Metric. Don't know why all US woodworkers don't adopt this measurement system. It's so much easier and less prone to mathematical errors. Cheers!
agree, metric is just straight numbers, could not be more basic. Let's not mention gallons etc. as ml and litres etc is so damn easy, again, just basic numbers by 10s, 100s, 1000s etc. Lbs and kilos also. Need a 'revote' on that decision LOL!!! (just mho).
This is great! I've built quite a few cabinets, but I love seeing others techniques that come from experience. I have often fallen into the trap of cutting dadoes and gluing when it really wasn't necessary.
That's what I was thinking. If they are all attached together and to the wall how good of construction do you really need? I'm a fan of over building but if it takes way longer it probably isn't worth the headache.
Besides the jealousy of your equipment I appreciate the time to make the video. I am about to make a small cabinet that goes into an odd sized space and this video is a great help.
This is a perfect playlist for me just getting into woodwork seriously. Also. As a former Royal Marine Commando I can see your instructional techniques you’ve obviously brought across from your service career. Nice clear and concise and no faff.
An excellent consise tutorial! As a former custom ff😅 cabinet builder installer my advice is... Build a storypole ,build a full cabinet out of scrap...complete with doors and drawers installed. Think ahead at every step...example install drawer slides before assembling. Build a jig/setup for multiples..example make a jig for hinge plates in elevation and depth. Quick tip for side mount slides,give up 1/4 errr 6mm and install drawer side flush with bottom of drawer. Again very well done!
Hi! This is great info, Jason. I watched many of these a long time ago. One of the things I always do when I start putting the bottom and sides together is double check the alignment of the 6mm slot for the back. Sometimes I am not able to cut the slots in all pieces at the same time, often having to dado the bottoms after the sides, and having to relocate the saw blade to match. I always use my piece of 6mm scrap from the sheet I use to cut my backs to check this alignment at assembly time. If it is a little off, I feel okay slightly widening the slot on the bottom to make the bottom and sides align. If the bottom ends up a little loose, it won't be a problem. I know you're assuming that everything is cut correctly to begin with, but everyone's shop and equipment is different, and we may not be able to follow your cutting approach to the letter. Best to check everything along the way! Thanx again for the great lessons! (Although all the Festool stuff does get a little old. I know you probably have little choice, though!) hb
I mean festool isn’t exactly obtainable by everyone-stuffs expensive!! Lol But still, he does NOT push the brand at us in his videos. Unless… oh, does he have ads for them or something? I don’t get any ads so that may be what you mean; but otherwise, I’ve only ever heard him provide LOTS of the different tool options-most of which are pretty easily available to any/everyone-so ppl can get to the same result with their tools, as he gets to with HIS tools. Lotta diff ways to skin a cat. Lol
What more can be said. Great job. It is better to work in plywood, unfortunately in Poland plywood is very expensive and the cheapest reasonable solution is to work in furniture board (chipboard). Moreover, to achieve satisfactory results, I bought a Festool plunge cutter. Regards.
I am getting ready to build cabinets for my kitchen for the first time ever. While I have seen a few of your videos this one was by far the best I have seen! Thank you.
What type of plywood are you using here? Watching just the first few minutes of this video gives me so much more information on cabinet making than I’ve learned from the last few I’ve done. Thank You.
Great video. I worked at a rockler for 6 years and things like euro hinge tabs and overlay are hard for folks to understand without seeing the process.
Great compilation. Some of these I’ve never seen. I found myself using metric on a small project I made recently. I never understood why people even cared. But metric is SOOOO much easier. BY FAR! I’ve just always been used to imperial. Whole numbers are so much easier. LOL BTW… when you asked Alexa to do the math… the Alexa in my room said “Sorry… I’m not sure I can do that for you.” 😂😂😂 My goal for 2024 is to get a new miter station cabinet built. My miter saw won’t be the key thing. It’s more…. Shop cabinets… that will happen to have a miter saw on them. LOL. Building them with intentions of having a Kapex sitting on it. Not sure if that’s the next tool I’ll buy or not. I rarely use my miter saw lately.
Wow !! As a new subscriber gotta say that the best content and complete cabinet yt tutorial ,!!! I did house framing for about 15 years over on south texas , and now here in my home town planning to start cabinnet bussines , cheers from mexico 🇲🇽
Glad to see your channel going full Hooah...sir! Glad to see things are going well! Retired myself and use the same software...for my cabinet making...all the best!
much easier way for installing cabinet doors for the regular 110 degree hinges is to drill and install the hinge in the doors, clip the boards on, put the cabinet on the side where hinges are installed to and just make a spacing between edge of the doors and cabinet (2mm for the normal opening and 4mm for tip-on system). works perfect and much faster :)
This is clearly a well thought out process. As a newbie, I have no way to discern whether it’s a great process. I know I appreciate the time taken to disseminate this information.
Where are you getting Baltic Birch plywood? It seems that wood suppliers in my town don’t even know what it is. And thank you for your detailed instructions. Great videos and I agree that using metric is so much easier. 😅
Great compilation very informative...any suggestions for mounting cabinets in a room with concrete walls. I am thinking tapcons, but just asking if you might have another way.
Love this video. One thing I didn't see is the extra bits of plywood on the front of the cabinet. (below and above the visible "frame.") What is that for? Is there video footage of adding this and how it's used?
Such a helpful video, thank you! I am getting ready to build my own kitchen cabinets, and this was really helpful. Where's the best place you recommend to buy plywood at? Can you get it delivered if your car is too small?
Check out the Blum Ecodrill. I’ve used the drill press but this thing is fast and accurate for the 35mm hole and 8mm holes. If you don’t use the hinges with dowels, you can keep the spacers on those two drills. That way the 8mm drills only dimple the wood where your screws align. This thing easily sets edge distance and hinges hole depth. Hinge and baseplate locator doesn’t get any easier than the QuickFix Hinge Assembly Guide by Blum Last but not least. For locating and drilling 5mm mounting holes for all Blum undercount slides…Universal Individual Boring Template for AVENTOS Blum 65.1051.02. It says is for avento but I use it for all Blum slides and other slides. It will backset 37mm from front and then the remaining holes at 32mm increments. Hope this is useful
You often talk about screwing your cabinets together from the sides because you will cover the end cabinets but I am not aware of you actually doing a video on ways to cover the ends of the last cabinets in a run of cabinets.
I’d like to know this as well. Seems the best option would be to either use pocket screws to assemble the end cabinet or dados and glue. Edit: while he doesn’t show it he does talk about different methods at 32:00
Typically they will get covered with an end panel after install. I would love to see him do an in depth video on end panels and how to install them etc.
Does the end panel stick out beyond the overlay doors? Does it have a toe kick notch or the joint with the base support can be visible? It would be good to see this in action, agreed.
You like to use the 32mm spaced pin holes for mounting drawer slides but I am not aware of you doing a video on sizing drawers based on the 32mm spacing and how you align the holes in relation to the cabinet sides.
I’m building two floor to ceiling built ins on the sides of my white painted brick fireplace. Do you have any advice on what should be done as far as filler strips? Should I scrub just the bricks and caulk the gaps for the mortar joints or scribe it exactly like I would a wall? Or maybe you have another suggestion. Any advice is welcome. Thanks for the great video!
Hi, thanks for the great video. I'm building some cabinets that will support a heavy maple worktop. Would you suggest making solid 3/4" backs to better prevent potential racking?
Always pre drill....confirmat screws are great as well. I agree with how you do most of your construction. Just wondering is this a how to video or a festool ad?
Great video series. One comment: shouldn’t the door hinge centre lines be 98mm from top and bottom, not 100mm like the receiver plate? If not, you’d end up with zero reveal at top or bottom, and the other hinge would be 4mm off.
Interesting...at 30:02, you can clearly see the plywood bulge out when drilling in the screw without predrilling. Perhaps because you were too close to the back panel groove?
I always watch your videos and replay it to just listen. I just want to ask what do you use for edge banding if you will paint it? Can you paint pvc edge banding or do you just improvise plywood ripped cuts to make it your edgeband to be painted? Thanks
Jason, could you describe your crosscut set-up (4 min mark) with the "hinged" Festool rail and the dog fence, etc. If you've done that in past videos, could you give me a vector/redirect. Thanks!
Kick plate on the center island.. yes or no? First, I am painting cabinets. Second, I am putting a facia on the sides and back. The back is a short wall. I will be using a beaded panel on those 3 sides. I will be using corner molding on the 2 corners to cover seams and add dimension. I am now thinking about buying a 1/16 panel to glue to the front frame. I will fill .seams with putty. I plan to build shaker doors and drawers. Any flaws in my idea?
I’m a complete novice and I’m wondering if it’s best to paint the cabinets before or after assembly? Any advantage either way as far as achieving the most professional, polished look possible?
It blows my mind that you just screw your cabinets together with no gluing. Don't get me wrong, I believe you and I want to believe it's as high quality as glued dados are...it's just really hard to break my head out of that paradigm. I know that I'll get there because you've laid out the evidence so clearly.
Didn't know anyone glued things like kitchen cabinets. Many types of fixings available. I've made kitchens (professionally) that look as good and work as good 25+ years later as the day I made them: dowels for alignment, long 6mm screws with 5.5mm pilot holes

I’m also setting up my workshop with many new tools; including:
- table saw
- planer
- joiner
- chop saw
- track saw
Just ordered the 563h 15” Blum Drawer Slides and can’t wait to adapt my design to them and get to cuttin! 🤪
I’m happy to hear that. Are you on Instagram? If so, please send me a DM. I would love to chat a bit on the graphic design aspect
Amen for metric system! Adding fractions is a pain in the butt! Great tutorial videos. Very easy to understand your processes. Mabuhay ka! 🤘🏼
I was not always ready to use metric measurements but you have shown me that when we are building something from scratch it is easier to work with. Thanks also love these types of drawer slides.
This guy has the most expensive woodworking tools and tool storage. Probably as much as a decent set of cabinets !
You aren't kidding... probably a cordless Festool pencil sharpener in there somewhere. Yikes!
hes a cabinet maker lol not making a one off for himself.
@@boyo1348 Right! It’s literally his friggin job (not just a fun hobby for him), & as such, he _requires_ good tools! Having/using good tools increases/improves efficiency, productivity, quality, etc., etc… and time is money. 🤷♀️😊
@@darrenkendrick1658 But they do help a lot
a single industrial planer costs more than all these tools combined

Great idea. This is awesome as a beginner I'm so thankful.

I love this. Being able to come to one video for everything is great.
Thank you so much fore sharing this video really help me understand very informative and well explained
Glad it was helpful!

My pleasure
Great information. Your videos are always a learning experience. My Alexa didn't know the fraction but did know the mm requests.🙄
Thank you this is really helpful and very well done.
Glad it was helpful!
Love you big fella , outstanding playlist . You demystified so much for me. Thank you very much and keep up the good work .
You have taught me a whole bunch in the past! Thank you for doing this!
A video on corner cabinets would be neat to see. Don't see many of those on youtube.
This is clearly a well thought out process. As a newbie, I have no way to discern whether it’s a great process.
I know I appreciate the time taken to disseminate this information.
No nonsense tutorial. Well done ! Liked & subscribed. Could you please move in next door? We've got things to do !
Thanks for the sub! Maybe we already are neighbors 🤣
Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge
Thank you for sharing your Very informative making cabinet...

OMG!
This is the most informative vid
Teo I've ever watched.
Thank you!
very good description! thanks
hey good job you are doing it looks good. it wasn't like you might have some plan of kitchen cabinets but could buy
Where are you getting Baltic Birch plywood? It seems that wood suppliers in my town don’t even know what it is.
And thank you for your detailed instructions. Great videos and I agree that using metric is so much easier. 😅
At last....an American that understands the ease of using metric !!!!😁
Absolutely love your videos! So helpful!!!
Glad you enjoy them!
Good morning Ben I wonder if you would be so kind to do a video on the cut list optimizer.
I watched you compilation video for the first time. Great job. Who make that little tiny square with the holes in it. Looks like a great device.
Great compilation very informative...any suggestions for mounting cabinets in a room with concrete walls. I am thinking tapcons, but just asking if you might have another way.
As usual, Thank you!

Perfect! Redoing my entire kitchen and this is exactly what I needed.
Super nice many thanks! would you please tell me the sinking drill bit and the screws part# you used?
What a gold mine!
This video has given me the confidence to build cabinets myself. Thank you for this! Are the screws #8 x 1-3/4"?
Thank you for this Bent, this is the most thorough youtube video for cabinets, especially for someone who's starting out.
Check out the Blum Ecodrill. I’ve used the drill press but this thing is fast and accurate for the 35mm hole and 8mm holes. If you don’t use the hinges with dowels, you can keep the spacers on those two drills. That way the 8mm drills only dimple the wood where your screws align. This thing easily sets edge distance and hinges hole depth.
Hinge and baseplate locator doesn’t get any easier than the QuickFix Hinge Assembly Guide by Blum
Last but not least. For locating and drilling 5mm mounting holes for all Blum undercount slides…Universal Individual Boring Template for AVENTOS Blum 65.1051.02. It says is for avento but I use it for all Blum slides and other slides. It will backset 37mm from front and then the remaining holes at 32mm increments.
Hope this is useful
So much great info. I had to sub. THANKS!
You often talk about screwing your cabinets together from the sides because you will cover the end cabinets but I am not aware of you actually doing a video on ways to cover the ends of the last cabinets in a run of cabinets.
I’d like to know this as well. Seems the best option would be to either use pocket screws to assemble the end cabinet or dados and glue.
Edit: while he doesn’t show it he does talk about different methods at 32:00
Typically they will get covered with an end panel after install.
I would love to see him do an in depth video on end panels and how to install them etc.
Put an end panel
Does the end panel stick out beyond the overlay doors? Does it have a toe kick notch or the joint with the base support can be visible? It would be good to see this in action, agreed.
He talks about it @ 31:50 mark
You like to use the 32mm spaced pin holes for mounting drawer slides but I am not aware of you doing a video on sizing drawers based on the 32mm spacing and how you align the holes in relation to the cabinet sides.
Great shop and video
When do you paint your cabinets since you predrill so many things? Do you have any videos on painting/finishing cabinets? Thanks for the great video!!
When you started showing the scribing process, why did you subtract 5mm from your measurement? Thanks.
I’m building two floor to ceiling built ins on the sides of my white painted brick fireplace. Do you have any advice on what should be done as far as filler strips? Should I scrub just the bricks and caulk the gaps for the mortar joints or scribe it exactly like I would a wall? Or maybe you have another suggestion. Any advice is welcome. Thanks for the great video!
This is great but I was wondering if you can make a video building cabinets with only a track saw. Can you do this project without a table saw.
I think it's totally doable with just a track saw. Might be a bit challenging on some smaller pieces but why the heck not?
Hi, thanks for the great video. I'm building some cabinets that will support a heavy maple worktop. Would you suggest making solid 3/4" backs to better prevent potential racking?
Always pre drill....confirmat screws are great as well. I agree with how you do most of your construction. Just wondering is this a how to video or a festool ad?
Hi Bent thank you for your videos. I have one question what length do use for the 5mm euro screws for the drawers slides
Always wondered who was buying all those Festools. Found him!
Great video series. One comment: shouldn’t the door hinge centre lines be 98mm from top and bottom, not 100mm like the receiver plate? If not, you’d end up with zero reveal at top or bottom, and the other hinge would be 4mm off.
Great video Bent
Thank you for doing these videos they have been very informative. Could you do a video on a frameless corner blind cabinet.
Wow that was great
Interesting...at 30:02, you can clearly see the plywood bulge out when drilling in the screw without predrilling. Perhaps because you were too close to the back panel groove?
Thank you so much for doing this Brent! I will be referencing this compilation when I start my cabinet project.
I always watch your videos and replay it to just listen.
I just want to ask what do you use for edge banding if you will paint it? Can you paint pvc edge banding or do you just improvise plywood ripped cuts to make it your edgeband to be painted? Thanks
I would use a birch or maple edge banding. I almost always use 1mm thick.
Thank you
Very useful ! Thanks a lot !!! What is the diameter of the wood screws ?
Jason, could you describe your crosscut set-up (4 min mark) with the "hinged" Festool rail and the dog fence, etc. If you've done that in past videos, could you give me a vector/redirect. Thanks!
can you do a video on how to use cutlist optimizer
Kick plate on the center island.. yes or no?
First, I am painting cabinets. Second, I am putting a facia on the sides and back. The back is a short wall. I will be using a beaded panel on those 3 sides. I will be using corner molding on the 2 corners to cover seams and add dimension.
I am now thinking about buying a 1/16 panel to glue to the front frame. I will fill .seams with putty. I plan to build shaker doors and drawers.
Any flaws in my idea?
I’m a complete novice and I’m wondering if it’s best to paint the cabinets before or after assembly? Any advantage either way as far as achieving the most professional, polished look possible?
Hi Brent, can I use undermounts for a drawer box that has a bottom panel flush to the bottom of the sides?
Thanks
No, thank you! I greatly appreciate it.
how's that Harvey bandsaw treating you? Mine was not so great. sold it and got a laguna like I should have in the first place
Awesome 👌
Hey Jason. What plywood do you use for your cabinets?
Thank you for putting this together and sharing!
I love the video and process man but you have a pretty extensive tool collection. Going to be tough to do some of this without them
I’m learning. But can I learn all of it? You showed us the cabinet, the kickboard, shimming, scoring. What about the TOP?
Counter top can be any material like laminate, marble butcherblock
Hi! How do you set a narrow crown staple when it doesn't go in all the way?
The tables that you are cutting on. Are they three different tables? If so what are these tables. Thanks
Good
