Enjoy the video! - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
LOVE the "unnecessary" camera angles. just brilliant fun! you just upped your production game with this one, in terms of project and in terms of production value!
"Oops ☹️ What’s the solution? …ah, screw it." 😂😂😂 (also brilliant fun)
you know which camera view they must forbid. when you see the persons face in front and then straight from the side. oehhh makes my blood boil
Coming to the comments to basically say the same thing. Glad to see he's having fun with the editing
yea i liked the name of the "maybe too close cam"
It's like a Jean Claude Van Damme movie 😅
"Now for the boring part."
"Screw it."
"Working under pressure."
Loving the puns and the dead-pan delivery!
Love the puns.
German humour at its best
making puns in a second (third?) language is to be respected.
I was about to say: His one liner game is on the spot :D
@@MyLPMaster001 it's no laughing matter!
"now comes the boring part"
Earned my like with that pun.
Looks decent even without the punnery tho. Well done
I think that by just changing the string to a small metallic cable the built would work for way more than 2 years. And since it’s a fair and simple mechanism maintainance is no problem
Also less likely to snag or tangle
Instead of pulling the trash cover up just slide it off
I was thinking a bike chain would outlast the table
@@Evanbgoldin
just use a bicycle brake or derailleur cable.
@@Evanbgoldin Normal small metal cable will outlast the table too.
I normally wouldn’t watch this kind of furniture project but I knew it would be worth it for the clever solutions you come up with along the way. Great project and fun video :)
Hi Jeremy,
I'm sure a lot of us would also want to see new projects on your channel.
Fun fact: You and Marius both have 297k subscribers. :)
@@adamelekes
Soon! I’ve had no shop for a year, but I got one again now.
Hi Jeremy, nice to hear from you. Look forward to seeing more of your videos.
There's an old saying. If something is worth doing... it's worth doing to a ridiculous excess! :). Love it!
Dieser gewisse Humor dabei darf auch nicht fehlen
I thoroughly enjoyed this video. Aside from the humour it’s good to see you include your mistakes. It makes mere mortal amateurs like myself stick with it, not give up and attempt more projects.
Marius, I love how you've totally upcycled this project and achieved such a fantastic level of finish. I really enjoy that you don't hide your mistakes and especially like the way you share your thought process through the "over"-engineering. Clever problem solving is what sets your content apart from a dry tutorial video. It gives the viewer so much more to think about and has inspired me with ideas for my own projects.
That's very nice to hear
@@MariusHornberger Also, let's face it, "Boring Part" is the best engineering joke any of us will hear this week. A+ for Vertical Boring Cam.
@@sweedenburg There was the "Screw it!". So many details in this video. I can't imagine how many hours he spent on this. But it ended up brilliantly. I love to watch his videos and how he present everything.
@@SantiagoLuz Haha, as soon as I commented and hit play I heard the 'Screw it'. 'Table Saw Motor Cam' is also a nice, new touch.
@@sweedenburg 13:37 "maybe a bit close cam" so many 🤣🤣🤣
The only issue I can think of is the string deteriorating over time.
When its time, I would suggest replacing them with guitar strings.
Nickel flat wound steel for the weight support line, and maybe a beefy nylon for the actuator line. Steel might not happily make that pulley curve.
Normal generic steel wire is much better and cheaper option. Heck they last decades on ie. motorcycles and cars, it'll outlast that cupboard with ease.
Could also use braided fishing line (strong corrosion free yet still flexible enough to be tightly wound around a pulley or a fishing reel, unwound and rewound thousands of times without loss of strength. Oh, also abrasion resistant!)
@@jothain Tell that to my clutch cable....
@@MrBobthelama tell that to guy who does maintaining like shit. Clutch cables can outlast normal road bike if maintained.
@@jothain normally I'd agree with you, and to en extent you are right. But they snap every 4-5 years of daily use on my model due to a bad lever design that sorta kinks the end. Thus making it snap "frequently"...
I can understand if you don't care about nuances and we can just all pretend like it's my fault anyways 😉
Man, I haven't watched a video of yours in 5 years because I lost interest in woodworking. It's great to see how much you and your channel has grown and how great your editing has become.
Having access to a 3D printer brings cabinetry making to a whole new level. Creating cabinets with a sense of humor. Well done!
Most excellently over-engineered. Well done.
why is everybody misusing the term over-engineered? can you explain what do you think it means?
@@BPFACTS88 This is the internet. No.
Marcus greetings from the UK, I am a retired design and technology teacher and have followed your videos from the beginning. I am very impressed with your attention to detail, but mostly with your high regard to workshop safety, for me and the thousands of students I have had the privilege to teach over the years, safety has always been the core of importance. I recommend your videos to everyone, there is no one to better your approach on TH-cam. I wish you many years of pleasure in teaching the world how to work with precision and safety.
Out of all of this, the way you did the trim on the bottom was the most clever part imo. So very nicely done, all of it.
Holy crap, Marius! You're growing up before our eyes here on TH-cam! Congrats on the apartment!
I must say that I really enjoy the humour in the video. You have come a long way since you started. I was definitely curious about this build and I must say, you didn’t disappoint. Excellent craftsmanship, excellent tech and just all around excellent production. Keep up the great work Marius. Lots of admiration from Canada. 🇨🇦
I love the comedy in this video. You are hilarious. (great build too)
That lighter trick is absolutely amazing!!!
I love the sincerity of your video, from the screw up parts, wrong side installation to the "it fits with the heater... well lucky I didn't measured that"😂
GROßARTIG. Die Kameraeinstellungen, die Schnitte, allein das ist schon der Hammer, mittlerweile aber ist es das, was dich als TH-camr so speziell macht. Was bin ich froh, das ich dich schon seit vielen Jahren beobachtend begleiten darf. Und das Projekt? Chapeau, altes Zeuch wiederverwendet, Ideenfeuerwerk und 'ne Menge Gehirnschmalz, das da in Bewegung gekommen ist.
Danke, fürs zeigen. Wünsche dir ein tolles Leben in der ersten eigenen Butze. Und kannst ruhig mehr zeigen, was dir noch so an Einfällen für die Bude in deinen kreativen Kopp kommt.
Jedenfalls hast du bei mir ein ganz breites Grinsen erzeugt, auch dafür noch einmal vielen Dank.
Es gibt noch vier weitere "größere" Projekte. Ich denk aber das hier war schon das Highlight. Danke für die netten Worte. Immer schön sowas zu lesen!
... jo, dem kann ich mir nur anschließen - richtig großes Kino in kleiner Küche, Marius!
I don't think your cabinet is overengineered at all, rather I think it's perfectly engineered for the material you had to work with. Anything less and the whole damn cabinet would just fall apart. Excellent build and great vid man.
the only guy that turns particle board in a work of art!
Huge huge huge HUGE props to the video. Shooting and editing all this must have taken as long as making that INCREDIBLE cabinet.
I love the auto-open lid for the recycling. I've been considering making something similar, also for recycling, so I'll probably do something similar with modifications.
Marius, I'm glad that you reused the material from the previous cabinets. Si many times, people just throw things away without thinking about the future.
Nice job on this project.
You can never move again; that build is too beautiful to leave behind.
Wow! Rocket science of carpentry! Amazing . Bravo
It’s always fascinating watching things like bespoke furniture builds and tiny home tours because I design interior (and sometimes exterior) furniture for luxury motor yachts and it’s really cool to see fixtures and techniques we use being applied.
You did a nice job here.
Love the project. Well done. I especially appreciated the errors and the comments you made. In the past, it seemed you did everything perfectly the first time. It's nice to see even experienced woodworkers make mistakes - sometimes multiple times. Now I don't feel so bad. Keep up the great videos and projects. You inspire us out here....
The German joy I felt when he said “now comes the boring part” and the next shot was him BORING holes 🤩
Very unnecessary hammer cam was absolutely necessary. I've had a difficult morning and that brought the first smile to my face I've had all day.
Nice video:) I like your humor and the craftsmanship. I like the idea of reusing the old kitchen cabinets. As always great ideas. Hope to see more of those projects.
As always, the best part about watching your videos isn't how practical or usable the finished piece is for me, but to watch you problem solve and work through the issues at hand. Would love to have seen more about the design and prototyping process for the trash lid mechanism.
I have no idea how this video showed up in my algorithm! But I totally enjoyed it !! I am not handy with his tools but I am always curious about how people redesign their space for functionality. You are entertaining as well as a creative wood engineer.
Very practical design , well done 👍.
I wish you could come over and redesign my son’s small kitchen for practicality . Have no idea why home developers hire the worse interior designers for homes ! They have very little creativity skills.
Going to check out your other videos…. You blend wood creativity with humour 😂😂😂.
Thanks for posting 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻.
I'm so encouraged when I see this kind of genius around the world.
Loved the variety of photo angles and wonderful editing. This was a great project and very well filmed. I enjoyed the project and film very much. It was so cool to take an older piece of furniture and make a customer one for your new apartment. I loved the auto opening trash compartment - great idea and well done. It will be hard to top this video, but I am sure you are up to the task!
My new favorite diy -guy! Love your skills, your level of details, your funny camera angles and it just blew my mind and raised your game to a whole new level when you said that you 3D-print your own plastic parts 🤯😮👍🏻
over-engineered? maybe. Thoughtful, useful, and precise? absolutely. This was a really cool video to watch
Dayum! Marius… The first 37 seconds was enough to make me subscribe. Love the energy.
Do you have a new comedy writer, or were you always this funny? 😀
Excellent build. I think things that are both over-engineered and that you also use every day are the most satisfying projects.
This is sooo well thought out and engineered. I really appreciate how everything came together and the details that went into it.
The extra comments and sense of humor definitely added a lot to what could have been a boring build.
I keep coming back to watch this video. Such careful planning and construction. Thank you for sharing!
I love this, the only issue i have is over here in the usa, hiding an extension cord in an enclosed space like that would be considered against code and a fire hazard (obviously building codes differ from state to state and even county to county) but the general rule seems to be is there are electrical wires concealed in a permanent or semi-permanent structure they must be electrical wires not extension cables because extension cables are not regulated by building codes (because super cheap under insulated extension cables are out there and if they start to catch fire they want the cable in plain sight)
this, also having it be plugged into both a microwave and another countertop outlet with a coffee machine hooked up is a lot of load for that poor extension cable
The problem is that the cable ist heating up and in a closed space it can overheat. Especially with thin wires and bad contacts. This furniture is open in the back and due to higher mains voltage in Europe there is only half the current flowing. So not really an issue where Marius lives.
@@tubybubi normally yes, but it's one of those things that really depends on what kind of load you're putting it under not only for the heat buildup of the wires but for the connection points as well, and like I said, a microwave and a coffee machine is a lot of load to put that under. it won't be a problem immediately, but over time after prolonged use the wire insulation is going to get brittle, and the contact points not only on the prongs but inside the sockets of both the extension cord and the wall socket are going to degrade, further adding to heat buildup until finally something melts...
@@tubybubi Yeah i get that, its just a thing americans experience because pretty much all of the USA has been trained over the last decades that extension cords are evil murderers. Like legit we have grown up being taught that an extension cord is super dangerous, the fear is so bad that housing codes have increased the required amount of outlets in rooms to try to reduce the need for extension cords instead of lobbying to get extension cord regulations changed to make them safer.
Now that it is in and finished, I would measure and extend the small shelves on the plastic storage side of the add on with the existing shelves. Great work, great video
Man I loved the sequence of thinking planning executing explaining! Amazing to watch! Thanks
The thunder sound made me sense the quality of your humor. Subscribed!
I'm loving all the extra camera angles, great project!
Yes, there are others videos that I like over the internet. But this one is different: this one made me proud of your craftsmanship. This project is really cool, thanks for publishing it. Cheers!
Love this sort of over-engineering. Truly a hobby for connoiseurs.
I enjoyed how he use the name of the task as part of his sentence like "we have to do the boring part now" and "well screw it"
NICE! Beautiful, well thought out execution. SUGGESTION: to make the tip-open plastic bin mechanism a bit easier to use and last longer, remove as much mass from the lid-lifter arm as you can. Less weight out at the end means less stress on the string, less effort lifting the lid AND the arm, etc. Alternatively, you can add a spring to that to cancel out most/all of its weight at the beginning of the travel.
"using squeaking screws" had me laughing so hard xD Excellent video Marius as usual :D Loved the extra camera angles, even the unnecessary hammer one!
A drawer for a drink crate has got to be the most German thing ever. Love it! A beautiful piece of work.
the sound effects and weird camera angles were fun, made me lol
love the custom build aspect of it, was fun to watch
This is absolutely my favourite video of yours. Great humour, clever solutions/engineering, design, and so on. Several of my favourite interests at once! I’m happy! :)
So yes please: More custom furniture projects!
Nothing is better than custom parts. Thinking about building an entire house from ground up as a project. An absolute master peice. One of a kind
I truly had fun watching this build, all the unnecessary camera angles were very much so necessary. Well done my guy.
Looks like a lot of work, but in my opinion it was totally worth it! Great job and I would like to see more content similar to this.
It’s great that this video went viral! I think that both the thumbnail and title were spot on. Then the content was great and you have shown a lot of engineering and problems solving ideas (especially with recycling).
This was my first time here but I will definitely stick around.
“Yes, it works” 😂 love that feeling
"Boring"... cleaver use of words Marius... and what a great project too. I love the simplicity of your boring jig btw.
I love this cabinet. It makes amazing use of an otherwise almost useless space, while also taking things like your coffee machine away from the main kitchen counter. The fit and finish is also amazing.
The only thing I'm not a fan of is that lid-opening mechanism. I feel like you'd always have to open the plastic bin slowly, to prevent the rope from pulling tight suddenly, smashing the lid open with force. Personally, I just wouldn't have used the lid, since it's in an enclosed space anyway. That would also allow for only slightly opening the bin to quickly throw in something small, now you have to open it quite far for the lid to open.
The mechanism already got some abuse with rapid opening. It's really not too bad, but I understand your point
@@MariusHornberger Oh I have no doubt it'll survive, and even if something breaks, it'll probably be the string or the plastic lid. Easy enough to replace. I personally simply wouldn't like that feeling of "I have to be careful, or it'll slam the lid excessively".
I think it's fair to say it's not about practicality but enjoying the challenge of solving a problem. I keep my plastic recycling in a paper shopping bag on the floor. That's practical. But it wasn't much fun to come up with!
@@bradley3549 True, but (IMO, to each their own) this is overengineering. Sure, it's fun to have a self-opening lid with a mechanism you made yourself, but for me, the annoyance of having to open the bin up so far before the lid opens and having to be careful to prevent the lid from slamming would quickly overcome that tingly feeling you get when something you made works well. Again: this is how I feel, to each their own of course.
@@timderks5960 It's almost like that's the title of the video! :) The nice part about being the inventor and builder is that when/if it becomes too annoying or breaks - that's just an opportunity for more over engineering to make it open sooner, smoother, faster. It's a win-win either way I'd say.
That was an excellent build! Even though you used the pre-made Furniture boards I would not guess that it was. Absolutely love the garbage drawer. Can't wait to see your next video.
Mesmerized by this. Thanks for the tip of shortening a worktop with a jigsaw, while it's on its side.
this man will become (or already is) a dad-joke grandmaster.
*bows in respect*
It's incredible how the quality of your videos did improve over the last years. Nice project again. Nice done, nice idea. Also i really loved, how you enjoyed your autmatic mechanism! I mean, it really was a great idea! please go on like that!
Amazing job. Very well thought out design, but also in the process 👍
I must admit I'm slightly jealous of your workshop, having the right tools and space makes a huge difference 😄
I love the extra "UNNECESSARY" camera angles.
Just earned my like, subscribe and notifications bell on.
Boy I wish I had a shop like you. I used to love to build wood working projects but now living in a small home with no shop at the age of 71, not too many projects get build
You are going more and more in the high tech direction. And that's a good thing :)
Awesome project! I wish I had the woodworking skills to build something similar.
Intentional overengineering is the joy of life! Really enjoyed the whole video!
The best part it’s showing the mistakes and the fix for it , human error it’s a nice thing if it can be fixed
Great looking cabinet system. I do not really have any questions about the build, but I do notice a huge difference between European kitchens and American kitchens... Seems like us Americans are way behind when it comes to appliances and such.
You could be cooking on a camp fire but your constitution cannot be beaten.
Like what? This seems no different than any particular board production cabinet in America. Euro style hinges have long been the norm.
@@Mrcaffinebean he did say appliances. You can't beat the Europeans when it comes to appliances.
@@DaleDix exactly 💯
I live for a good bit of over engineering. Brilliant job, and love the ridiculous cams :D
Very nice engineering and reuse of old material. And the editing made this video very enjoyable to watch.
This is amazing...now theres no excuses why my Husband can’t put in my roll out drawer for my Mixer!!....thank u!
Very cool! Good to see you back Marius...hope you schooling is going well (went well?)
The effort and the result matches. So win win!! Good job!
Saubere Arbeit. Sehr coole Lösung mit dem Müllfach.
Moin Marius,
es ist also endlich passiert, Du bist ausgezogen!?
Ich wünsche dir für den nächsten Abschnitt im Leben alles Gute, einen guten Start und genieße die neuen Lebensumstände (ohne jetzt zu anmaßend sein zu wollen).
Eine wunderbare Maßanfertigung der Küche, vor allem der Lückenschluß zwischen Arbeitsplatte und Fensterbank gefällt mir sehr.
Beste Grüße zum Wochenende

My wife wouldn't have put up with the 'iterations', but I loved them. Fun video.
i love the attention to detail i could never
Oh I love this. I wish more people did videos on hacking or reusing old furniture. Specially stuff considered "disposable" like these.
Swap the string for a steel cable, should last significantly longer. Awesome video, funny and informative. Love your table saw and shop.
Looks amazing. I watched it with a bowl of popcorn.
Of course you over engineered basically everything. Love it!
Personally I can watch people build things for hours. The craft and skill on display is so interesting.
Yesterday i search on TH-cam how to make a big plank from small ones and today I got this video suggested ! Love it !
"Now for the boring part" That's the juiciest sleeper pun I think I've ever heard.
The trash drawer is brilliant!!!
You are quite the engineer and fabricator! Thanks for sharing.
Your dad must be so proud of you. Thanks
Beautiful piece of furniture ..... You are talented designer and problem solver .....More Please !!!
I really like the dowel jig....simple but excellent!
I'm in awe. Wonderful watching you work.Well done.
I know this was about 1 year ago.. just showed up on my suggestion page and it is awesome. Love the detail and time you put into this project. Really nice work.. REALLY nice.. This is definitely one of those videos I'm glad I had a chance to view. TY for your work :)
Thank you very much for this video. Being equipped with 2 left hands and on each hand 5 thumbs I'm very much in awe of the work you've delivered. 😉
