    Here's a link to the sketchup file I used: bit.ly/2iuVDwt
    The original design called for more shoe cubbies but I accidentally keep the same spacing as the drawers, hence I have less shoe cubbies. Just another mistake! Anyway, I followed most of these measurements pretty closely. The base might be slightly wider and longer. Thanks!

      parillaworks This was a rather ambitious project but you created a beautiful and functional piece of furniture. When I visited Japan some years ago, I purchased a “tansu” (Japanese chest). It had 3 sections which resembled steps on a stairway. Each “step” had 4 small silk-lined drawers which is used to store my jewellery. Thank you for giving me a glimpse of wonderful craftsmanship and artistry. Ysabeau T.

    I taught junior high Industrial Arts "back in the day" and always tried to impress upon my young students the concept of "Create an Heirloom," no matter whether the project was a bird feeder, boot jack, or nice wall cabinet for Mother. Watching you spend such care in all the details...and planning out your work so effectively...really made me proud. So, I'm sending my major high fives from here in Mississippi, coupled with highest compliments on a job well done.
    It is quite fabulous that you did not succumb to the "rush to the finish" mentality. Rather, you were meticulous in your steps, taking care to get things right as you went--and planning how to accomplish other goals while a portion of the project was underway. Now that you're finished, I know you swell with pride each time you walk past this cabinet, knowing that your heart and soul went into it--and that this cabinet will be around for utility by your great-grandchildren.
    CREATE an HEIRLOOM!

      Hi Larry. I really appreciate your comment. We have this cabinet in the entryway of our house and I use it every single day (top right drawer holds our dog's leash). I'm proud of it and hope it will be used for many years to come. I think your concept of "Create an Heirloom" is a good one. Thanks for sharing :)

    I sometimes think that being a skilled carpenter requires quite a large percentage of fixing quirks, mistakes, flaws in the wood, mess-ups and general misbehavior of mind, fingers, tools and whatever else goes into a project like this. I really like your attitude and honesty about it. That’s where we learn. I guess we should all love our mistakes, haha!! Or at least learn how to control the odd vent of anger and frustration like you do. Excellent job!

      Thanks Michael. I didn't do it for the first small one I made earlier this year and regretted that. So I made sure to do it this time.

  •  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    A stunning piece & one that separates the amateur from the employed carpenter for sure. There are few items of more complexity than a Credenza or apothecary cabinet. I once knew a guy who'd built a puzzle compendium stand for a small child in his family...its levels of trickery blew the mind. I've been a carpenter/joiner since school, 30 years back & still I marvel at the skills available with modern & affordable space & tooling these days, its so great to see people toiling away in their own workshop.

      @parillaworks  7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Thanks! Ya I agree. I was talking to my wife about this after we got it moved into the house. I keep going back and forth on how I feel about the exposed pine. Looking back, it would've been very simple to just make those solid sapele.

    • @tomruth9487
      @tomruth9487 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      I love the matching grain. I think it's hard to combine woods, some combinations are definitely better than others. I always think of pine as "informal" and tighter grain, dark woods, as more "formal". So I try not to combine formal and informal woods. But this is just one way of looking at it. You might consider just painting the pine black or charcoal gray. Or even a black toner to let some grain show through. But that is best done with spraying. You could try some black paper to cover the pine to see if you like it first. Just wondering if the sapele holds its color in time? I know a lot of exotic redish woods sometimes turn gray or loose the red. I know how much work you put into this piece and video, they are both awesome, great job.

    @TheJagjr4450 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Your use of the grain in this piece makes the artistic value of this more valuable than the utility would indicate.
    You do incredibly beautiful work which anyone who has an eye for 19th century antiques and also an appreciation of modern art or design would love... I can think of so many people in and around Greenville South Carolina - Asheville North Carolina area who would love to collect some of your furniture.
    ***Incredible*** the way your eye moves around the initial interpretation is that the individual drawers are not square, when realizing they are square the grain takes over and gives the illusion everything is on the grain pattern, Flowing, only when reaching the top of the piece do I then realize the entire cabinet is square

    Nice work! I appreciate how you discuss the potential for error when you were routing the dadoes! Lessons we learn as we create. By the way, I also use pipe clamps, and one handy way to have a very long clamp available when needed is to have a threaded coupler so you can join two pieces of pipe together to make a longer clamp without having to keep a bunch of heavy pieces of pipe around the shop.

    Nicely done once again. I do prefer the size of that last apothecary cabinet that you made but this one was also a nice learning experience for you. Thanks for sharing.

      Thanks! This one is one of my favorite pieces. We use it every day and it's held up great so far. Thanks for watching!

    Just completed a very similar project for a mail pigeon hole cabinet. I wish I had watched your video beforehand as it would have save some head scratching. Managed to hold my measurements square by using a story board although manual alignment of slot routing alignment took far longer than it should. Will use a standard spacer next time. Great final finish, well done.

      Nice to hear, Ian. I might be making a smaller version in the coming months...depends if the customer and I can agree on price :)

    Very, very, nice. I really feel for you wrt the errors that you shared with us. Those mistakes will only serve to improve your skill and awareness. I also admire you in the fact that your garage is not full of the most expensive kit, but where it matters you have some nice gear. Keep it up. A great family heirloom. (one little tip: use tape to mask off areas adjacent where you are applying any filler....it makes the cleaning up later much easier !)

    I love apothecary tables and shelves. This one came out beautiful! Love the sapele and ash color together!

    • @parillaworks
      @parillaworks  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks! I think sapele is my favorite wood to work with at the moment. And I have a lot leftover too.

    I appreciate the narration, so many woodworking videos are just work, get no insight into what's going on.

    Turned out great. The sapele really looks nice with the ribbon grain.

      Thanks! Ya I got lucky my lumberyard had a lot of quarter sawn sapele available.

    Very nice job. unless anyone has tackled a project like this one or smaller it is a lot of work. in all projects especially the more complicated one such as this or even a screw box there is a ton of work involved and rarely does it all go completely without some oversight that can be fixed but always leave the craftsman a bit downhearted..BRAVO my man you did a very nice job, it looks GREAT.

    John! Killer project. I love this apothecary cabinet. A cabinet like this has always been on my bucket list. I can only hope to make one for myself one day. Keep up the great work/videos. Best of luck.

    Great design and craftsmanship. Nice editing on the video and many thanks for leaving in the "whoops" and corrections. We all go through the "next time I'll change this or that" on projects.Woodworking is 60% working and 40% problem solving. You get a thumbs up and a new subscriber from me.

  • @jmakes3745
    @jmakes3745 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Came out really nice, I really like the look of the continuous grain drawer fronts: I can only imagine how much work went into making it - I find one panel glue up stressful enough!!
    Also thanks so much for showing your mistakes in the video, errors like cutting things slightly off-square is a problem I always have when making things so its really reassuring to see another youtube having the same mistakes.
    This video has definitely motivated me to try and make something entirely out of solid wood, so cheers!

    • @parillaworks
      @parillaworks  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks J. On the one hand it can be embarrassing for everyone to see your mistakes. On the other hand, I might not have much footage to show if I didn't show them! ;)
