- How to Make Wooden Drawer Slides.
My favorite drawer slides have been out of stock and back-ordered for weeks. So instead of using lower quality and finicky drawer slides, I have decided to make my own. Wooden drawer slides have been used in furniture for 100s of years. In fact, many of the antique furniture pieces in my own home use wooden drawer slides that still function well after 80, 90 or even 100 years (And those years involve a lot of kids!)
So I'm making the switch from impossible to get imported drawer slides to making my own.

I personally liked the way you explained the process and why you used wooden runners. Good call mate. Good workmanship also. Thanks for taking the time to show everything clearly.
This video could not have popped up at a better time... only yesterday i made the choice not to have no sliding drawer hardware in a project... now i'm 100% sure how im gonna do it... brilliant video ❤❤❤❤❤
You live and you learn or is it you learn and you live.. you get me lol
A lot of individuals wanna be perfect but I think we will make mistakes and learn from it and that is what makes us better.
We need to start making everything here again like we used to do.
Amen!
I have noticed that these old wood runners have stop on them good job
A lot of wooden runner drawers have extended sides longer than the depth of the actual drawer and a stop mechanism attached to the side. The extended sides are to eliminate or reduce tipping when fully extended. A thought also is to use iron-on melamine to the bottom and sides of the runners or drawer sides. Melamine tape is hard and makes opening and closing drawers easier. Thanks for the video...
Good timing. I built several frameless cabinets 6 ' H x 3 ' W with fully adjustable shelves. I find I have the variable spacing between shelves where I need it but the 18" depth is making it a bit difficult to get to things in the back of the shelf . I have been contemplating making each shelf a slide out drawer to alleviate that problem. Since I have seven to nine shelves in each cabinet the cost of slides is quite high. So I thought of using wood runners to save a bunch of money. You have given me some good ideas in how to make the conversion to wooden runner drawers. Thanks and keep making great videos.
P.S. embrace your children. Pick them up, make them part of your video if they are in the shop with you. Nothing wrong with that. She may be one of our next great female woodworking innovators with a little help. A number of makers involve their children in some fashion if they are in the shop during filming. Just part of Life. Love them while you have them. They grow up and start their own lives soon enough.
This is a pretty solid little workbench. While once you figure out how it comes together, it is physically Easy to assemble th-cam.com/users/postUgkxyFZUPFEey-PuqsPMxqaykBhgA1LWxFHh by yourself. But the diagrams explaining the steps are really pretty bad. I could not get the handle pins in all the way despite multiple attempts, so I just used a screw I had on hand for the 2nd handle. I could not get the first pin in further or pull it back out. You are supposed to hammer it in, but I had no leverage and the handle is plastic and I did not want to risk breaking it. I will get a lot of use out of the bench because of the convenient size and height. It does fold up nicely for storage. They even explain how to fold it so you don't get pinched...that is important!
Great video on Drawers. I m making a twin bed with drawers underneath
Everything had a nice clean look. Nicely done.
Need to keep those skills for sure ♡ ❤️
Thank you for this great video. Yes, grievous mismanagement by our countries leaders is putting it mildly.
Have you seen how the drawer slides which are wood but with marbles? I was amazed how this guy on TH-cam showed how they work. Just type in how to build drawer slides using marbles.
That’s pretty cool
@@DaileyWoodworks I also think ball bearings would work just like the marbles. On Amazon they have them at a pretty reasonable price.
Hi, what I do is cut the sides the same size as the opening end plane them to size when fitting just before glueing. Also a good way of minimising the tipping when the drawer is open is to cut the back between the sides and fix it an inch or so forward of the length of the sides of then to get to the back of the drawer your not pulling it all the way out. The best advice I can give is find some plans from the 40s or 50s and use that as a guide for all your drawers. I only use hardware on fitted kitchens as that's what customers expect but for my furniture it's an unnecessary expense . Take care?
Good information. Thanks for sharing.
Wonderful. Need to reduce the price of materials. Drawer slides have gotten to expensive now. Using scrap plywood is perfect
The drawers should not be squared but slightly tapered in the back. In the front 16th" play all around and don't forget to add a kicker, the kicker will help stop the drawer from kicking down.
This video comes in handy for a “Pin & Cove” vintage 3 drawer dresser. I have been looking for a solution to the drawer drop

Thanks for the great video. Looks like you have a successful business. Don’t blame the government.
Fuck the government
You're right. There was terrible management of our government during the pandemic resulting in years of dysfunction, extending well into the next administration. Sad.
Damn, that's a lot of work you just created for yourself. Did you think of just adding a dato cut right down the center sides of the drawer box and sliding Beachwood runners through that cut and be done with it? Just asking for a friend.. 😁
👍I was thinking of experimenting with polyethylene slick tape and this kind of wood slide design. I’ve never used the stuff.
Let us know if the fit gets tighter after you clearcoat the cabinet and the drawers. Also if you built the back of the drawer higher than the opening by little, when that stop the drive from coming out and you can still tilt it a little bit to put the drawer in? Just a thought.
Yes they did get slightly tighter. I have since switched to solid wood drawers with dominos. I now intentionally build them snug then use a hand plane to find tune the fit, and then use Rubio Monocoat finish as it’s an oil that doesn’t build up like a varnish
Dust frames in old style dressers, double as support for drawers
You should make a candy drawer, not a bad idea
I'm not a cabinet or furniture maker, but I'm wondering what will happen with changes in relative humidity if the drawers are too large relative to the opening.
If I achieved the piston fit of craftsmen Of old that would be an issue. But there is enough play for that to be a non-issue with the 1/16 gap on all four sides
you said the brace to keep everything square was going on the bottom @ 6:10 then @ 8:33 you assembled it on the top...what's going on with that?
Oh I decided it worked better to have to the other way mid-build.
Next time make it to a piston fit or opening size then if needed to make a bit smaller use a jointer or hand plane.
This is exactly what I’ve started doing.
You should just remake the drawer so you coustomer gets the best quality
This is the first of your videos I have watched. I just subscribed. Was wondering what did you eventually end up using as a draw stop. Do you have a video of I can watch of it. Thanks in advance.
I never ended up doing a stop, I've found it's not really needed. The drawer natural stops about 3/4 of the way out
I love your drawers, what stain do you use?
These are just lacquered Maple drawers. The top on this piece was Beech stained with Minwax Dark Walnut stain and sealed with the same satin lacquer.
Woodglut instructions is nice for that.
Did you forget to make the SLIDES? this was a boxed braket - not slides..and what gave you the idea that people were following you as you were explaining or making it?
yeah, he didn't make any slides... there are none. this is a shoddy build to be honest. Like the slapped together box drawers you throw along the garage wall made with scrap wood and no slides.
LOL Says the guy who has never posted a video.
Sent you a note in email
"The egregious mismanagement of the federal government" has...what? Conspired to deprive all of us of...cabinet hardware? Really? Maybe if private companies payed their workers more, and did not rely on "on-time" supply-side economics...Oh, I'm sorry, too much of economic theory, let's stick to cabinet making, shall we?
@ mak4374
Globalist oligarchs have made puppets of our govts and have deliberately sabotaged American manufacturing and our economy.
But let's keep to making cabinets.
@@wholegrain27 I would say that "globalism", as in "global economies", has always been beneficial to humanity, propagating peaceful transactions, stable governments, etc. The problem of course has been the inverse goals between the locally-attained-power of the politicians/kings, the ever-expanding global markets/routes and their need for stability, and the need of vulture capitalism to dominate both of the above. And not to mention, those politicians who do want to do something to mitigate the excesses of the above players, and to resolve the dichotomy of the systems involved, are always hampered by being too late to catch up, and by their own constituents who elect them on hope, but bring them down on fear instilled by the powerful and the rich.
Once upon a time I hoped social media who expand our minds. And in many ways of course it has - realizing the beauty and artistry of...let's say, Japanese woodworkers, instills another level of respect and admiration in me of their culture, and as such pushes me not to fear that my own culture will be lost, but enriched by "globalism". But politically and economically uniting nations, I do not fear that, because it is intrinsically good. It is just that social media has been used by oligarchs to convince so many of us that...woodworkers "there" are responsible for the degradation of the woodworkers "here". I know, seems like a silly example, but...think about it...
Well someone got a B- in Econ 101 and thinks they know what they are talking about.
@@jackthomas2051, maybe I don't know, but at least I try to. What are YOUR thoughts on supply-side economics?
You sound like a fed
I no likey.
Stopped watching as soon as you made the comment about the "egregious mismanagement of our government." I wanted to hear about the drawer slides you made, but don't want to hear your misguided political views. Good bye.
Fast forward ding dong
This video was made during covid you absolute bafoon
Wow. I've never been so happy to have a fast forward button. I learned nothing from your blah blah blah. Buh-bye.
I think you are being a bit harsh with your comment. Maybe you know all there is to know, but that would make you a know-all. No, I just think you like to be mean to video providers.
I’m just going to assume you were having a bad day - I don’t understand why some people are so nasty in their comments.
