The caning or something similar was chosen so we wouldn’t lose the vent. We love the finished product! My wife and I eat side by side on the bench while the kids and their grubby paws are relegated to their chairs for now. Thanks for helping my wife’s vision come alive and being great to work with!
@@FortressFineWoodworks Hi Cory, here I am, a month later as YT did not notfied me. It doesn't matter. I enjoyed every minute of it and totally agree with thomasweber: your cabinet making skills translate into pure artistic expression and your editing and storytelling (how not to love you for those!) ones work as a perfect complement; the whole package makes you my favorite cabinter maker! Every comment (except for the "gentleman" who "cancelled" his sub) gets a like. My small contribution to try to push this algorythm thing up. It baffles me you don't have at least that first 100k subs. Hugs! Pedro
I'm seriously euphoric right now! I just built the squaring jig and second stop for the sawstop sliding sled and it worked like a dream! I seriously can't thank you enough for this. I've been battling the sled since I bought it a year and a half ago. I've spent enough hours trying to fix it that I could've bought a new sliding sled many times over. I just made a series of square cuts without any deviation for the first time with this glorified paperweight. Thank you!
This is the level of professionalism I strive for! The little tiny things like gluing back that tear out and the micro rabbet on the drawer boxes shows so much work ethic! Great work
This turned out really, really well. Thank goodness you had a chill client... I thought caning went out when the 70s ended. I'm hoping that one of these days, you get a client that demands (!!) an all-natural wood finish. No stain. No dye. Just wood. I'll say one thing, though, of all the woodworking channels I consume (a lot), you probably have one of the top levels of finish knowledge - depth, technique, repair, etc. I would hope that others contact you for consulting rather than just slapping on another coat of that hard wax oil we have been over-exposed to at this point... or the other one, for that matter. Best scene here was you rigging up your temporary dust collection. First, if something is fancy, one must hold his pinky outward to denote the fanciness, and - technical point of order - duct tape in fact prevents the world from turning. Rock on!
You must write novels or something. I feel like I'm reading a well written story every time you comment! I will be sure to hold my pinky out next time I'm staining a project..... well....because it's fancy of course
This is probably your best video so far mate! The piece looks incredible and the journey to the final product was very helpful. I learned a ton. Thank you
What I really like and appreciate about this video is how organically you've seamed together making an entertaining video to watch but also injecting a lot of helpful guidance and lessons.
Another awesome build Cory. I’m surprised that you don’t have more subscribers your content is great!. I’m really pleased you don’t just churn out videos the way some others do, your videos are always well shot and edited and the voiceovers are calm and informative. Look forward to the next one.
@FortressFineWoodworks the way you made that gothic base for the rosewood table is ingenious! Made me remember you don't always gotta make it super tecnical and carve it all lol
As someone who owns that same bit from bits and bits, I can confirm, it's a beast and a pleasure to use! I just used it to cut 1" box joints on sapele and it did so with no tear out and me cutting borderline recklessly deep. Can't recommend it enough!
Another work of art! You are truly an amazing craftsman and your attention to detail is second to none. And I appreciate all your little tips throughout the video.
Beautiful work and the client done well with the design process. Between the clients design and your execution of the work it turned out a stunning piece of furniture. Especially the shadow gaps between the drawers and face frame.
Damn did that come out amazing. Thank you for not making it look so easy to make cabinets. I have never seen anyone point out how measurements could grow if you don't take certain things into account
This project was a beast.We can empathize 'cos we all know that know that self- whipping thing.Lovely production standards here & fascinating methods of work- thank you,Cory.
Like for chairs 🪑 you need to cut grooves 3/8 depth.Sock the rattan cane 20 min. Adjust the cane alignment.wedge your rattan in. Can cut straight away. The groove will hold the rattan cane in position. I’m
I see your like me when attaching your drawer fronts I hate them banging into the FF eventually creating “ Ring around the drawer fronts ! As a side note; You should check into the infinity 8 1/4” flat bottom grind , 1/4” blade ! It’s created for cabinet makers that use 1/4” and 1/2” dados or rabbits a lot ? Quick easy change out and dead on! Beautiful cabinets ! Just drop dead gorgeous!
bro I only watched two videos of you I think beside your high carpentery skills I think you have a great taste with choosing the right music to but in your vids
For veneer. You need to apply into plywood & use big hot pressed like plywood sized 8ft X 4 ft. Not finished your project then apply adhesive to glue on? You will a lot of smallpox here & there. 😊 I’m from Singapore big Furniture Manufacturer Company.40 years experience.you was lucky. Cutting hole for lighting, you must apply masking tape around, before you use hole saw. Not jigsaw? 😊
That final product is so beautifully elegant and sophisticated! I love it! I was sitting here doing little design inspiration doodles for my future dream kitchen, taking some styling cues from here and there. Gorgeous! What you mentioned about working alone really hits home for me. I exclusively work alone in my shop (I have no one to help me), and I also have to work with physical disabilities that limit my mobility and range of motion. That little Harbor Freight furniture dolly you're using nearly killed me on more than one occasion, and I don't mean that figuratively. I would strongly encourage you to get rid of it right now. Cut it up and throw it away. Get yourself several sets of QUALITY heavy duty casters with wheel locks (spend money on these), and build yourself several reinforced platforms of various shapes and sizes. ALWAYS have two fixed wheels and two spinny wheels on each platform; do not give in to the temptation of having four spinny wheels, as the platform WILL shift at the worst possible time. Carpet the platform with commercial grade low-pile carpet. The platform dimensions should be larger than the footprint of load it's carrying. Two trips to the hospital in my late 20s, one for a neck injury I healed from, and one for a shoulder injury I didn't. Those dinky little furniture dollies are meant for low, wide loads; not the kind of stuff we're slinging around our workspaces. Take care of yourself! :)

That little bit of baseboard that goes around the corner between the coffee bar and low shelf I assume the TV will sit on: there is another spot a professionally designed piece would of taken into account with a connecting piece of matching trim to make the built-ins more seamless and less jarring to look at. Nice build. With the kids and that dog you will get plenty of call back work to replace the caning over the years. LOL
Greetings from Germany! I think most people use mahogany wood less because it comes with the connotation of a large carbon footprint. Additionally, due to import costs, it is actually very expensive in most countries compared to domestic hardwoods.
Great video and incredible outcome! Always mesmerized by your work! Quick question: what Graco tip are you using for finish? I only have a few black tips and am not happy with it. Noticed you’re rocking one of the greens and I’m interested to hear your thoughts.
The best way for a series cabinets. Construct the base & top frames separately. In installation, put the base frame in place. Check your level? Insert wedges or left over small laminated for your leveling.set in mahagany veneer plywood & traced your unevenness? Cut to shapes. That apply to the top also. You safe a lot of times ? 😊
Yes , rattan cane need socking.20 min were do. Width in length can cut. And install your beading.long in length had to let it strain for half an hour after you done the width. Don’t forgotten, wood products do strain? 😊
It's 1/2"mdf with a strip mounted on the bottom that falls into the groove on the crosscut table. The mdf is cut square and finely adjusted. When it's pushed against the crosscut fence, then the fence is locked down, now the crosscut table cuts perfectly square every time. So it's just a jig to set the angle of the fence.
Your work is beautiful and it is clear you are a fine craftsman. I have a similar concern with the table saw slider attachment. It seemed be a nice addition my saw, but have the squareness issue. Do you have plan for the squaring jig and fence modification i could purchase? Thanks and keep up the good work.
I appreciate that! The stick on veneer is pretty nice. Sometimes it gets bubbles that are hard to get rid of, but if you take your time, it works very well
Everything looks great! Not trying to argumentative, but I haven's seen true mahog in about 17 years. What you're using looks more like sapele. And slight suggestion that drives some "woodworkers" crazy, mdf core veneered sheet products are superior to plywood, plus you can get it in 10' and 12' lengths. Keep on keeping on and i pray you get one more day ;)
I definitely appreciate that. My supplier sells sapelle also, and this is high grade African mahogany. If they had 10ft mdf core I would've used it for sure.
It's too bad you haven't found a larger push stick. 🤣Also, I agree about using Mohagany. I built a cabinet for a family member a few years ago using it, and it looks and tools great!
Better help does not use license therapists Better help does record your therapy sessions Better help does sell the information it gathers from you To data brokers. With the deliberate purpose of marketing goods to people who are mentally vulnerable to add campaigns. along with other fairly publicly known and nefarious acts. I will be blocking this channel because they took this ad.
I'm not blocking you and I don't think you're a bad person for taking their sponsorships, everyone's got to get paid. I do think, though, once your contract with them is up, you might want to revisit the relationship. The company has been found to do some seriously unethical and immoral things, perhaps you don't want to be related to them forever.
The comment above is not anti therapy -- they are anti BetterHelp. I think that nearly everyone could benefit from therapy and am in therapy myself. BetterHelp is a company that is taking advantage of people seeking to get that help for themselves by misrepresenting the qualifications of some of their therapista and by selling mental health data to advertisers. Not saying that no good therapists are on betterhelp and I fully support sponsorships as a way to make money on a free platform, but I would also recommend reconsidering your affiliation with this company
Who cares what sponsor he has or don’t have, if you don’t like listening to the sponsorship ad then fast forward the video, but don’t tell the man how to make money. He’s not coming to your house telling you how to make your money!!!!!
Before therapy I was an addict wasting away on the streets. After therapy, I'm a sober business owner, faithful partner, and most importantly... present in my life.
@@FortressFineWoodworks has nothing to do with Better Help selling their customers date to insurance companies or the similar scandals they’ve been involved in. I absolutely believe in therapy. Just not this company.
@@FortressFineWoodworks BetterHelp scrubs patient notes then sells the data to help advertisers target people's feeling of vulnerability. BetterHelp turns mental health professionals into gig workers. Think about it... you want the person operating on your body being treated & paid like an Uber driver? Let's be clear what I feel; I feel outrage about how a company exploits personal trauma and personal despair. As such, how would you feel about accepting money from a clusters munition company? Or how about Exxon? Or maybe you approach sponsorship based on what "Helps" you better and care not about what it is for your viewers? Once is a mistake, so I will continue to watch your other content. Twice is on purpose.
Puzzles me, that you do not have a suction carrier for sheets, when you have such a nice big workshop. That would take some of the hard work out of moving sheets.
This sawstop is a 7.5 horsepower beast. I find it funny that all these youtubers are getting sliding saws, even though they aren't even production shops and will barely use the saws for their intended purpose.
I've had something like the saw stop for years now. I own a small sliding table saw it's basically the same size as the saw stop, and believe me, they are so much more convenient.
Great project. Can you give more details about the second clamp for the crosscut sled? Homemade or purchased? if homemade, what kind of stock did you use? I have the same complaint about drift and use a good 24" square in the slot but would like more stiffness to it. I'd like to add the second knob too.
I used a piece of maple. It has 2 bolts going through it into the t track on the back of the crosscut fence. Then a knob going into the left most slot of the moving table. I only losen this knob when taking the fence off but I leave it attached to the fence at all times. The mdf square is easy, it's just 1/2" mdf with a runner on bottom. Then it's fine tuned with a handplane and sanding block until the front edge makes the crosscut fence perfectly square. Works every single time
@@FortressFineWoodworks Thanks for the details. I'll put one together. It looked to me like you were using an aluminum extrusion. Much simpler than I was trying to make it in my head.

Construct the base & top frames separately.

Let's be clear what I feel; I feel outrage about how a company exploits personal trauma and personal despair. As such, how would you feel about accepting money from a clusters munition company? Or how about Exxon? Or maybe you approach sponsorship based on what "Helps" you better and care not about what it is for your viewers? Once is a mistake, so I will continue to watch your other content. Twice is on purpose.
Puzzles me, that you do not have a suction carrier for sheets, when you have such a nice big workshop. That would take some of the hard work out of moving sheets.
I have a grabo, I don't typically use it when I'm moving sheets to the tablesaw though. Thanks for the tip!
I think he might be referring to those assisted suction sheet loaders the help bear the weight too
Seriously, it's time for a real saw. A sliding table saw.
This sawstop is a 7.5 horsepower beast. I find it funny that all these youtubers are getting sliding saws, even though they aren't even production shops and will barely use the saws for their intended purpose.
I've had something like the saw stop for years now. I own a small sliding table saw it's basically the same size as the saw stop, and believe me, they are so much more convenient.
Great project. Can you give more details about the second clamp for the crosscut sled? Homemade or purchased? if homemade, what kind of stock did you use? I have the same complaint about drift and use a good 24" square in the slot but would like more stiffness to it. I'd like to add the second knob too.
I used a piece of maple. It has 2 bolts going through it into the t track on the back of the crosscut fence. Then a knob going into the left most slot of the moving table. I only losen this knob when taking the fence off but I leave it attached to the fence at all times.
The mdf square is easy, it's just 1/2" mdf with a runner on bottom. Then it's fine tuned with a handplane and sanding block until the front edge makes the crosscut fence perfectly square. Works every single time
@@FortressFineWoodworks Thanks for the details. I'll put one together. It looked to me like you were using an aluminum extrusion. Much simpler than I was trying to make it in my head.
