I can’t help myself but I love binge watching wood working channels and discovering new channels like yours
The nylon strap trick is fantastic. You're a genius, thanks for sharing. Will be building a drawer like that this weekend
Genius. Pure genius.
The blue tape method for clearance is a great idea, really enjoyed the video! 👍
I would suggest that when building drawer boxes, make the sides the long pieces and nail from the side. You will have a much smaller chance they will pull apart.
Chris, it's obvious that your bakery management prepared you for how to run a production wood shop!! Very well done!
That space management, Chris has it nailed. Me, not so much, lol.
Love the strap stops! I have yards of strap that I've been holding on to for years. Kept thinking "I'll find a use for it...NOW I actually do! Lol! Thanks...keep 'em coming.
I can't begin to tell you how much I enjoyed seeing you play with your children. My 6 yr. old daughter loves being with me in my pole barn, and I love having her there also.
I won't go into detail but I'm 69 yrs. old and thank God for the time He gives me to be with my daughter. I know this isn't what your video is about but I think you showing
you with your children shows you are a good man with your priorities right.
. Thanks for sharing the part of your story as well. Yeah the kids being around is awesome. They bring such a happy life to any situation
Not only dad’s have fun with your kids I’m a grandpa I have 3 grandkids number 4 is on the way halfway but every day they help me so much with my ilnes so take lot of time with your little princes
Greetings from Holland
From a grandpa to a daddy 😊
I love the drawer slide one! I did something similar with 1x2s, and instead of using paste wax to help them slide easier I used a quarter inch spacer between the drawer slides so it slides really smooth.
Your shop organization is insane! Good work keeping everything so neat and tidy!
What a sweetheart. I use to give my grandsons wood blocks n a 🔨 to use on the blocks only n on the floor not the benches.
You should try giving your daughter a wood offcut or other weight to hold in each hand, spin her around on the office chair with her arms outstretched, then let go and tell her to pull her arms in. She will of course, start spinning faster when she does. Kids love it and it's a great little physics lesson.
My favorite one is the overhead storage with the smaller shelves underneath. You have taken the cleat system to another level. Awesome!
Chris, I’ve been watching your channel for a while now and I am amazed at your intelligence and energy, threw everything you have shared about your personal life and how you endured and keep going , you are an inspiration to me and I’m a life long woodworker in my 60’ s keep it going, stay strong 👍
To help you with the drawer hardware cut your strips that go on the drawer (obviously if you have the room in the back) 2 or 3 inches longer than the drawer, and let it hang out the back. This will help with pulling them out to far and gives extra support to the drawer when it has weight in them.
Chris, Your CNC recent addiction has now made you a CNC Pusher. You keep giving us little samples and now I am one of those who is hooked enough that I NEED A CNC! Seriously though, glad to see your creativity transform into such success. Even if I don't have the CNC yet, your ideas are still excellent and applicable to most of our shops. Keep up the awesome work. BTW bought your tool hooks and some FC shelf brackets.
You’re gonna become so much more calm place as this technology becomes more accessible. Thank you for that I appreciate Kevin
I love your drawer stops
I love the child friendly safty.
Chris love the product development. I also like seeing your process engineering skills evolve as you go along. Great stuff bud.
I love everything you make but I have been looking for these kind of drawer making, it's perfect! Thank you
Interesting upgrades. On the subject of children, you get unlimited joy from your children. I hope your father is still with you and if he is then sit down with him and ask him to explain the joy of having grandchildren. You are older and have more time to appreciate them. You also have learnt how valuable they are, whether they be your grand children or any one else's. To explain a bit, I have the honour of putting on the red suit in December for our local Special Education Unit and have done so for over 20 years. I think that I receive more joy from doing this than the kids do. If we don't protect all children then we have no future. Thanks.
Terry from Australia.
I love those flush faced no hardware drawers you made.👍
Thanks for the new ideas!
Lots of great ideas.👍
Cool drawers. Super simple.
Your ingenuity is encouraging! I always enjoy your honest, open approach when narrating the videos.
Thank you so much Man that means a lot
Having that daughter- you are so blessed 🙏
Made similar drawers under a bench. For the drawer stops, just used small blocks of ply. One on the drawer, one on the slide. Fit one of them after you slide the drawer in, secure with one screw. take it out if you ever need to remove the drawer.
Some great tips in this video! Thanks for sharing.
love the drawers! especially the stops - very low tech, simple and effective!
Very cool projects. Thanks!
Awesome. Thank you so much!❤️
Man you are way smarter than I to design, cut, and design some of this stuff.
I liked the drawer slides
Another great video. Thanks Chris.
Great idea! I'm going to do this in my shop
First- Good for you for talking about a real issue many men have as you said over 40 but think it's related to the performance when it's most likely not. It's no different for women after menopause and we lose our energy. Many of us need estrogen in our 40s & 50s. It is nothing for men to be ashamed of. Secondly, who cares what the dispenser looks like, I do like it, and it is a very efficient setup. Love it and your kids are just adorable!!
Chris your Ingenuity with these shop projects is crazy. Great ideas!
Love the drawers I can’t wait to try them. Another great video. Thanks for making them.
I love the double layered FC shelves
Thank you brother very much
Love the drawer stop. I likely will steal this idea for some dresser drawers that regularly get pulled one inch too far.
Great work!
Getting me inspired to get to work on my workshop area in my garage.
Very nice additions Chris. Like the drawer glides, that cnc machine makes some very nice projects. Keep the great videos coming, love your little helpers
You got some real good ideas.. i came for the drawers but watched most of it
Man, looks like you had a ton of fun with this. Those drawer slides are incredible. Definitely gonna make those when I make my first cabinet ever :D Thanks for sharing! You got a subscriber!
Just got a CNC and can’t wait to try some projects like you have been doing! Keep up the good stuff
Great work. Love the upgrades. And that you find time to play with the kids.
Good ideas and fun to watch!
I really that idea of using the smaller shelf bracket under the larger one 😉
Clever idea with the drawer stops. I did these kind of drawers in my router table for narrow bit storage and.. well I've pull them out by accident more than once. Great other tips too!
Thanks Phillip I appreciate it buddy
First thing that crossed my mind to prevent pulling them out accidently, was paracord and two holes. One hole in the end piece and another on the back self and two knots. Easy way to undo and take them off.
As the dad of an eighteen-year-old, I remember those moments. There are different experiences now, but those moments of silly kid play are among my best memories ever.
👍thank you for sharing this! You just helped me solve my problem
Very clever upgrades. They are useful, and they look really good! 💪💪💪
Chris, I love that you are using all of your space under shelves, with more shelves or drawers. Then you also make the hardware for them as well. Genius, my friend. Could you give a little history of your woodworking skills? Do you ever use SketchUp when you plan your jigs and, of course, the French cleats?
Thanks for sharing and teaching. Felix
Nice upgrades. God Bless!
Thank you so much for your content and knowledge/idea sharing! I will be moving into a house in a while and thanks to you am picking up some ideas for the shop I'll be building in my garage ;-)
I think this is an awesome drawer set up👍! It's simple, easy, and does the job. I especially love the strap stop to keep the drawer in place. Again it's effective and easy to do. This project requires no hardware, no dato cuts. I love it! Good job, great video!
Thanks for sharing! 👊
The draws & stops are pretty cool! Simple & quick building and it works! Good job! Gonna build for myself. Thanks for sharing.
Love your design ideas!
More great ideas, Chris, thanks. Can’t wait to move into the new shop so I can finally start applying your product and wisdom.
Thank you so much Tom I really appreciate it
Great video. For the "under shelves", it feels like you could quickly design a single bracket that would accommodate both shelves at the same time. The plywood drawer slides seem ideal for light duty work.
Great Ideas and execution. Like ken below says, hardwoods may be another great choice for drawer slides. I do upholstery and use "soft goods" frequently. leather or nylon strapping makes good hinges.
One of the more impressive DYI’s out there. Very creative. Thanks so much mighty man of God!
I love this video great ideas for how to get more out of my shop
Love the idea how to stop the drawer :)
I love the drawer slides and stop
These simple drawers are a good reminder that a solution only needs to solve the original problem, and if it works it’s not just good it’s good enough.
Hey Bud.
You are doing great.
I looove all the projects on a CNC.
I been a CNC machinist for 25 years and I really enjoyed all your projects.
Thanks so much for all the advice.
God bless you and your family.
From Cypress Texas
Thank you so much for that
I always get the best ideas watching your channel, thanks 😊
I'm glad I watched this video. I have learned a few tricks and techniques I can use in my workshop. The straps under the drawer was a very good one. Genius!! Thank you for sharing. God bless you.
Been looking for a drawer guide video that is within my means and know how to, thanks for sharing
Great job Chris.
That's Awesome!!! Well Done!!! Thank You!!!! 👍😎😃🤘
BRILLIANT...NUFF SAID!
Hey bro, on your drawer glides, very cool design and solves a problem for my next set of drawers! Thanks, and well done!
A tip I've used a lot for the gliding surface of other drawer glides I've designed is to make it harder and slicker with melamine. Rip a 3/4" strip of melamine from the sheet, the length of your drawer bracket pieces. Now rotate that over on its cut side, and bring the rip fence toward the blade, so you can shave off that layer of melamine plus 1/16" of the MDF with it. Now glue/clamp that to your first strip with which you made the drawer bracket, then attach the first strip and assemble the rest as you did. What you're left with is a drawer bracket with a very tough, slick, durable surface for the cleat part on the drawer to ride on. No wax needed, and feels as slick as a store-bought one.
Of course, they make an iron-on melamine edge tape, or even iron-on oak edging would be pretty slick and tough, compared with the plywood strips rubbing each other. But this is a very cheap alternative affordable for most people, and doesn't take that long to make, especially if you batch them out.
You could also just glue and brad nail the entire melamine strip to the assembly (without shaving off the plastic layer), but I'm kinda leery of how strong a 3/4" strip of that MDF would be with the drawer's weight resting on it. Plus shaving them off and gluing them to plywood, you can shave off both surfaces and get 2 strips of plastic for every strip of melamine ripped from the sheet (I know, that's just too cheap! ) :)
Well that’s pretty impressive. Thanks for going into detail that way if someone else has the inkling to do this they got your method as well. Thanks a lot brother I appreciate it
Great Work!
I first saw a similar drawer slide elsewhere. It is a bit simpler without the side channel just a slat the drawer slides on, that was during the covid. Now I want to add them with multiple drawers under the rolling table saw cart I made back then. Your solution is perfect to keep the drawers from hanging down along with the “nylon webbing” to hold them in. However, I am planning to use melamine strips so the slides go easier. I really like the creative curves on your shelf supports which has given me some ideas for winter projects. Thx.
Awesome video, I really enjoyed the drawer slides and the safety stop strap..... that was totally awesome!! I'm going to use that on my shop!! Thank you!! Take care.
Really like the rails👍🏻
Great design. I really like your shelving. On one occasion when I moved house I made a stack of 24 boxes for packing hand tools and workshop stuff.
I made the boxes with a French cleat on the back, so that they could easily be made into cupboards for the workshop.
It worked well, but then I got seriously ill and unable to work full time. I moved to Turkey and hope to set up another home workshop this year.
Really clever sir, nice job!
Love the drawers. I did basically the same thing but used PVC because it slides smoothly without maintenance. I added a stop block above the slides and put a screw through from the inside that hits the block to stop it. Then I can take the screws out if I need to remove the drawer.
Drawer slides look great…gonna try and make that this weekend!
Thanks for this video man! You have a whole new video you can add separately: easy drawers fronts without hardware. All the other videos always needed the handles for the installation but you made it just like I needed. God bless you man. Kudos.
Hey Brother, I told you that once I got a job, I would order some of your products. Well I made my first purchase, but definitely not the last. I will order some of your shelf brackets when I start my miter station.
I know I have said it before, but I am so happy things are working out for you in this endeavor. I know from personal experience that leaving a steady job is scary and hard. But, you always have to do what is right for you and your family, nothing else matters in the long run.
I wish nothing but the best for you and your family.
I need to do a bunch of upgrades to my little shop. Because it's so small (9x13 feet), every inch of space counts, I need to think about how to organize everything really carefully. I've had some ideas on how to improve it, but I've neglected getting them done. I think once the holiday season is over, I will spend more time and effort on building some stands for tools, parts storage, and so on. This video has gotten me thinking about some things. Thanks, Chris. 👍
One of my favorite channels! Hands down. Some of the best vibes out here
Wow, that so clever how you did your drawers, so cool. Great job.
Hey great idea. I make shelves and always wanted drawers but never tried because those drawer slides look difficult. Thanks to your video I can now make some easy to make drawers that work. Thank you very much.
Great Video! Thanks for sharing!! :-)
The drawer pulls & stopping straps are genius!!! I will certainly give them a try!!! 😎👍🏽
Thanks brother as you should. It’s surprisingly useful
Great ideas I especially liked the draw stops. Your kids are awesome.
Love the strap idea!
Very ingenious and creative. Hats off to you. Also, I enjoy your contagious smile and enthusiasm.
Great stuff!!!!
Alignment pin(dowel) on the shelf divider "clamp"- no fiddling with it if/when it's moved! It's a thought 🤔!
Kudos!!!
I think the wood slides, especially for shelves that will hold light weight are massively overlooked. Great job utilizing all the space in your shop.
Great job 👍
Dude, you even make the sponsor's section interesting. As a fellow over 40 yr old, I shall definitely be checking them out. Another great video, thanks.
Thank you so much Man that means a lot
I subscribed because of this video, thank you! Very informative and well done!
