Adding the Blum drawer opener to the waste bin was the best decision when we remodeled our kitchen. 7 years later it still brings smiles to our faces each time we use it. 😊
Really nice work! On my oil bottle cabinet I put down a thin rubber mat in the bottom since there's always leakage, and so I can take that out and clean it off once in a while. TBQH I'd be afraid to use your kitchen for fear of marking something!
Thanks for sharing Matt. I really like how you are honest about issues that come up and then explain the thought process about the design modification. It seems like every time I deal with a mechanism, there is some fine tuning/adjustment required. It gets to the point where I make and use scrap pieces up front to work out the details. It is refreshing to watch others do the same. "Not just me," LOL. Be safe with your power tools, I want to continue to watch more of your projects for years to come.
Wow Matt, things are really progressing nicely. I'm impressed with all the new cabinetry gadgets that you've installed, and show casing them for the world to see such technology is a bonus. Keep up the great work. Thanks for taking us along.

Thanks Matt, Been watching your channel for many years and have loved the content and new ways to do old things. I especially love the new gadgets and devices you have and are presenting in the kitchen renovation and expansion. Thank you again for you content.
Love the stainless steel top for the trash bins -- wish we had thought of that for ours. I did insist on a stainless steel backsplash for the range, and it makes cleaning up splashes so easy. As a bonus it is ferritic so timers and other magnets can stick to it.
I think I agree. I’m having a hard time believing I would like those back shelves. Finding my self more into the standard “lazy Susan” corner. Otherwise loving all the cabinet gadgets
I'm envious that you have a "spare" kitchen so you can take your time getting these details right. I'd have to have my kitchen back in "working order" every day by dinner time. Or i'd need to plumb in a temp kitchen somewhere else in the house. Anyways the kitchen is looking awesome.
😂! I replaced the kitchen in our last house with custom cabinets and our kitchen consisted of an electric fry pan and a microwave. The refer was moved to the garage as was the dish washing. 6 mos. but we survived.
Maybe buy another bin opener mechanism to replace the newly installed one that will be work out quickly with you and your kids playing with it continuously!! I don't like that type of complex solution but this is the exception...truly functional!
I have something similar for the bottles. I find the tall bottles wobble or even tip over when the self-closing mechanism is initially engaged when closing.
I feel like a Lazy Susan on the bottom shelf of the upper cabinet (what we have) would be much more accessible than the two lower areas of the spice rack. I feel like they will just become storage for stuff you never use. I do like that electric opener for the trash cans. looks very handy, but I'm wondering how long until that face plate is going to need to be repainted with constant use.
I've seen from Rex Krueger that using that rubber drawer liner from the dollar store is a good way to keep stuff from sliding on your bench without leaving marks on the wood.
Adjustable shelves in kitchens are an interesting problem. In my experience, they get adjusted once, and then stay that way for a couple decades. Then again, probably must adjustable shelves are that way. They're mostly a hedge so you don't have to have the person you're building the kitchen for know exactly how they'll use it at time of construction.
Put a rubber liner on the bottom of that shelf. The oils have a tendency to make a mess over several years. Use a large one and cut slits in corners to run it up the sides about an inch. You might want to poly the wood inside first as double insurance. Olive oil has a tendency to destroy wood if it drips even once by someone who isn't careful.
WOW!!! You have some coooooollll additions to your kitchen. My only question is how long are they going to last with young, inquisitive children? I guess, we shall see, won't we?
Bloody nice work mate :) Seems a waste to me, oak bin.... :) But your magic corner doesn't actually fully open which it should so you can pull the back shelves out ...
It is on the side where the slide mechanism is. That way you pull straight out on the slide. On the other side you would put a binding side force on the slide mechanism.
Get you a man that will find/rewatch footage from the design selection meeting you had with your designer 14 months ago to confirm the choices you made. 😉👍🏼🚪
Get some magnetic featherboards. You get your fingers way too close to that blade way too often. Despite all the marketing, a sawstop will still chew you up given half a chance.
Love to little corner thing, but not a real fan of the bottom half of the spice rack front. Looks out of pace next to the other doors and second how much use is the shelves on the other side of the garbage pull out going to be used? with it being so close to the corner it seems like it would be out of site out of mind. When you were making them I was thinking they would be in the front and easily accessible.
From what you showed, that magic corner hardware seems pretty pointless. The front unit is not as wide as the opening so those boxes are wasting space. The back units do not appear to EVER be fully accessible, as the front boxes are still partially covering the opening. I would much rather one long shelf widthwise. Then one could put items of many sizes in there, including things like frying pans whose bodies could be living to the right of the face frame but whose handles one could easily grab. A several dollar board versus a few hundred for all the moving metal that is making the space less functional in my book, easy choice.
I hope you are not going to paint that quarter sawn white oak and i dont know what happened here in norther California but Walnut is now $13.84 a board foot crocks
Whilst I enjoy watching your skilful work, I still can not avoid the thought that your preoccupation with unnecessary detail has an anal retentive characteristic.

Looking fantastic. Lindsey must be pleased.

First class attention pays of. It looks so good
It's really looking amazing Matt - such fantastic attention to detail as always, and a terrifically pleasing result! Love it XXX
Your aesthetic sense and attention to detail is second to none!
Your skill, precision, and craftsmanship as a woodworker never cease to amaze me.

What a dream kitchen! Way to go, Matthew!
Again, your problem solving is fantastic. What a nice kitchen space to work in.
What a fun episode. Lots of variety. That "auto-opening" trash bin is the bee's knees.
Matt is going to spend the next hour playing with the opener…. 😂🎉
Now this is the Matt I remember. Love this stuff man. Great pace dude - like work to explanation ratio haha.
Love you brother

So you just come up with kitchen ideas and make decisions all by yourself in the shop? brave man indeed.
Love the three specialty drawers. ❤❤❤❤❤
Matt don't forget the S.S, kick plate for the draw panel . 😂
This installment has been the best video of the week. Thank you Matt !!
Good Morning Cremona Family.
Impressive as ever Matt. The silicone valley was an awesome idea.
Really appreciate the craftsmanship it’s outstanding!
I imagine your wife is very anxious to use her new kitchen. I sure would be!! Nice job Matt. I Can hardly wait to see the new appliances in!!
I am!! Can’t wait!
That is some trick gadetry. Nice Matt.
That is the best trash drawer I've seen yet. Spice rack face is beautiful. Not to excited about the magic space corner. Great work as always.
I think I agree. I’m having a hard time believing I would like those back shelves. Finding my self more into the standard “lazy Susan” corner.
Otherwise loving all the cabinet gadgets
Really looking NICE! I can't wait for the kids to start playing with the trash drawer!
If I ever let them have a turn
The HOWL at 37:35 made me miss my kids.
These are all really awesome Matt! 😃👍🏼👊🏼

This is inspiring me for my weekend projects
THANKS FOR ANOTHER GREAT VIDEO

Hey Matt, smooth move using Fireball shims.
Awesome job Matt. Coming along nicely.
Thanks!

Need more bottles 😄

I've seen from Rex Krueger that using that rubber drawer liner from the dollar store is a good way to keep stuff from sliding on your bench without leaving marks on the wood.
I use them when sanding
23:36 - I'd put some dark grey paint in the "drawer" gap to mimic the drawer to the right of it.
Adjustable shelves in kitchens are an interesting problem. In my experience, they get adjusted once, and then stay that way for a couple decades. Then again, probably must adjustable shelves are that way. They're mostly a hedge so you don't have to have the person you're building the kitchen for know exactly how they'll use it at time of construction.
Even when building for yourself you rarely know where your shelves need to be unless you are building the shelf for a specific item.
Pretty fancy hardware! Nice!!!!
Another puzzle in Lindsay's $300k kitchen. Kudos.
Awesome, as usual
YOUR CRAFTSMANSHIP CONTINUES TO AMAZE ME...I HOPE LINDSAY APPRECIATES ALL THIS EFFORT.
Looking great. Who will be happier after finishing?
Pretty darn cool!
Put a rubber liner on the bottom of that shelf. The oils have a tendency to make a mess over several years. Use a large one and cut slits in corners to run it up the sides about an inch. You might want to poly the wood inside first as double insurance. Olive oil has a tendency to destroy wood if it drips even once by someone who isn't careful.
I’m considering making a custom silicone liner 😄
WOW!!! You have some coooooollll additions to your kitchen. My only question is how long are they going to last with young, inquisitive children? I guess, we shall see, won't we?
This is why you do quality. To withstand clumsy children.
Guess you should have raised your kids better so they didn't destroy your cabinets
Wow it looks great. 👌
I LOVE gadgets!
Great stuff.
Much too complicated for this old brain, but wonderful content Matt. Thanks for sharing.
Fascinating stuff. Don't you need a (metal/plastic) kick plate on the garbage drawer?
Don’t think so. You can hit it anywhere with any body part
Looking good. Kind of Fancy.
I strongly suggest putting some kind of plastic where the oil bottles live.
Nice❤
Bloody nice work mate :)
Seems a waste to me, oak bin.... :)
But your magic corner doesn't actually fully open which it should so you can pull the back shelves out ...
put a clear finish on that oil cabinet inside for cleaning
Is there a particular reason you didn't use an oscillating cutting tool to create the cutouts for the metal sliding brackets?
Matt, seems like the knob should be on the other side or in the middle of the Magic cabinet door. Sup with that?
It is on the side where the slide mechanism is. That way you pull straight out on the slide. On the other side you would put a binding side force on the slide mechanism.
Get you a man that will find/rewatch footage from the design selection meeting you had with your designer 14 months ago to confirm the choices you made. 😉👍🏼🚪
Do have a 'snipe' problem with your planer? If not do you make some adjustment to get rid of it? Tks Jim
Very occasionally have it. I lift the board as it’s feeding in and out
Are you contracting out the tile backsplash? Or is it on the list?
Get some magnetic featherboards. You get your fingers way too close to that blade way too often. Despite all the marketing, a sawstop will still chew you up given half a chance.
ARE YOU CONSTANTLY CHANGING BLADES ON THE TABLE SAW FROM RIP TO CROSSCUT OR USING A COMBINATION BLADE?
Love to little corner thing, but not a real fan of the bottom half of the spice rack front. Looks out of pace next to the other doors and second how much use is the shelves on the other side of the garbage pull out going to be used? with it being so close to the corner it seems like it would be out of site out of mind. When you were making them I was thinking they would be in the front and easily accessible.
why do you use a jig saw to cut your boards to the rough length, why not a circular saw, which would be faster
From what you showed, that magic corner hardware seems pretty pointless. The front unit is not as wide as the opening so those boxes are wasting space. The back units do not
appear to EVER be fully accessible, as the front boxes are still partially covering the opening.

We have what you describe now. Hate it 😄
For the record, it's his kitchen not yours. So it's his wants
Where did you get the automated drawer opener?
2:17; please tell me that is the actual name for the planer...
I hope you are not going to paint that quarter sawn white oak and i dont know what happened here in norther California but Walnut is now $13.84 a board foot crocks
I would if it wasn’t so much work to paint
Why waste cabinet so big? You could get same effect with 18" or 21" pullout.

Some use unnecessary walnut Matt uses unnecessary dovetails
There is no such thing as an unnecessary dovetail. A true wood worker knows that
Whilst I enjoy watching your skilful work, I still can not avoid the thought that your preoccupation with unnecessary detail has an anal retentive characteristic.
😂 I’ve never met a talented person who wasn’t anal retentive. Excluding myself of course.
