You know you’ve done a great job when everyone is commenting on your woodworking and haven’t even noticed your film making and editing craftsmanship. Cheers!
Ahh thanks! Hardware was tricky to find during the lockdown we were under at the time so had to make do with what I could find at home... wasn't too sure how brass in the wood lathe would go but seemed to turn out just fine!
I absolutely love this piece! I've been looking for inspiration to build something similar for my father's old blues collection and came across your video. I'm just getting into wood working - do you have any suggestions on building this as an absolute beginner? Any chance you'd consider sharing plans or even making a video demonstrating a simplistic build?
Hey thanks, glad you like it! There were definitely a few tricky things with this build - it could definitely be simplified a fair bit though by removing the mitred corners, not doing the edge banding on the plywood faces, and removing the doors from the speaker areas. I do have another couple of record cabinet builds that I would say were much easier than this one which might be worth having a look at. Sadly no plans available yet, I need to get my act together on that soon!
I am self-learning to make my own furniture and this video has been insightful. Thank you for sharing :) If I could ask, when connecting via dominos, did you glue both sides or only one?
@Sarah-io6ok both sides usually... if you wanted to allow for wood movement with hardwood might be the only time you'd not want to glue the domino itself (i.e. a true floating mortice).
It's a floating mortice, not a buiscuit... uses a thicker timber "plug" in matching slots that give more support than biscuits would. The one I've got is the Festool Domino, which is pretty expensive but well worth the investment!

Thank you, means a lot 😊
GREAT JOB!
Dude this is a badass piece. Lose the doors. Beautiful work my friend.
Really nice build including doing your own hardware - congratulations! Thank you for sharing. I will have to watch more of your videos.

Completely new to woodworking but would love to recreate this cabinet for my vinyls. Do you have the plans for this?

What kind of plywood did you use? It looks gorgeous.
@scottrubealcaba it's 18mm birch, with a blackbutt veneer (can probably only find that in Australia I'm guessing)
Cool
Do you have these plans for sale by chance?
it's an evolution. the cabinet is not old style anymore.
Beautiful work! Is that a biscuit joiner? If so, what brand do you use?
