KTT haha Im using that from now on. I only have 4 bikes, 2 power wheels, a couple scooters, helmets, a bin of sidewalk chalk, etc... and there's more in there. That's just off the top of my head picturing the mound of junk I have now. That's all part of the upcoming garage makeover. I have a feeling a Toy Purge is coming.
Nice work on some very useful cabinets. I would have liked to see you put the last cabinet (under the desk) on wheels so that you could move it out of the way to better utilize the desk. Keep the videos coming. It gives the DIY'ers inspiration.
Absolutely fantastic editing, humor and everything else. You definitely produce some of the best videos ever! Keep up the great work - whole bunch of us out here need your help.
I very happy I found your channel. It is great to find someone that keeps a clean /organized shop. I too need to build more custom storage. Like your plans. I don't have KTT,but do have too much stuff! Keep building!
I really enjoy your videos. Learning a lot and sometimes when im lacking motivation, 1 or 2 of your videos and im back out in the workshop. Keep up the great work
Cool design. I've been looking at building something similar out of MDF and then ones I'd seen were all pretty much 400x400x780mm. I didn't see the point in adding an extra side so I think I'll build double cabinets something along these lines about 800mm wide (to keep with the 2.4x1.2m sheets). Not too sure about the spray can storage, but I think I'll retrofit some store bought racks. All I want around the bench is glues and fillers generally. Thanks for the ideas though!
did you consider making the drawer unit you put in the seating portion of the desk, as a roll out cart? that would have given you both storage, and kept the option of sitting at the desk.
1) cargo shorts still cool 👍🏻 2) KTT solution for me was to build a shed in the backyard, $800 solution. 3) I am definitely building those cabinets! Thanks! 4) Just subbed.
Oh I’ll get there soon, it’s gonna start getting cold so I’ll put everything in storage. Either that or we’ll move into a single family home and not a townhouse.
I have the same problem. I had to finally break down a by a garage heater from Amazon. Now I have to 'insulate' my garage. I've also heard of a neat little trick of building a cabinet with a high wattage light bulb in the bottom, lined with something reflective and fire resistant, to heat the rest of the cabinet. That works for glue and paint. Although, "paint" might not be such a good idea in a cabinet like that. But, it would be good for glue, tape, and other less flammable materials. I think it might actually work for paint too, as long as you keep the paint on the "top" shelves. Oh yea. It also works better to warm the higher shelves if you have some sort of gaps going up through the cabinet to let the heat rise. Might even want to put a couple of 'small' holes in the bottom to let air in, causing a 'flow' of air through the cabinet. Double check me on that heated cabinet though. It was a great idea when I discovered it years ago. But... it may have turned out being too much of a fire risk. Especially depending on what kind of bulb you use, etc...
Love the channel, would love to buy the plans but they are in imperial. Any chance you might be bringing out metric versions of the plans? There are probably a lot of subscribers like myself and you would be able to sell a lot more plans if there is a metric option.
Just a thought... But these tall cabinets might pair nicely Not sure why TH-cam won't let me posted the URL, but Google "family Handyman giant DIY garage cabinet"
Wall cabnets what size ply is yhe backer boards 1/4 or did you ho with 3/4 all yhe way around ? I need to build some cabnets for my shop and been going back and forth on how i want to build them
WOW KTT lollll ohhh my good , i have a 20 x 30 garage and i have only 1/4 of that for myself !!!!!👶👶 Before i had double that and man did i love it , so i bought tools and more tools . You know to fit the space so that my wife wouldn't take the space for the car !!! lolll Now i guess the karma got back at me for not sharing 🤣😂😅 Love your ideas for the build , but for the plans i think i'll pass sorry bud maybe next time when i have more money .

And at my age the comfort of cargo shorts has given way to the extreme comfort sweat shorts. I live in Arizona, and might put cargo shorts on 4 times a year, and full length pants maybe 3 times a year at most. In a few more years I plan on transitioning to just all out naked. Well, maybe an occasional shop apron to avoid splinters.
I still have my plastic toothpicks for my two knives(Huntsman and Champion)... LoL You coukd of saved a half sheet of plywood on that cabinet build by just puting the drawer glides directly on the sides of the foot well of your desk cabinet opening... But nice work over all on your cabinet build...
Great work! I purchased the bundle of plans and then realized that the cost of the plywood vs buying premade cabinets are around the same. With the current cost of plywood, i'm looking at around $320+ for just plywood. For $325 I can get 2x premade ready-to-mount cabinets. I'll be holding onto these plans i just purchased for when plywood prices drop in the future... If they ever do...
I have the WORST K.T.T. One son, has a motorhome, a truck, car, long trailer, 2 motorcycles and half the attic space. The other, finds things and brings them home in his truck. A giant bird cage, a set of weights, an old gun safe (for me) and etc. When the garage gets cluttered, they ALL tell me, "It's your shop, you clean it up." That's where we are today. They act like they are doing ME a favor by getting this stuff. With the full kitchen remodel coming up, they know that I have to get it done before I can do the kitchen. Oh well. How's that saying go?? "Gotta love the baby." Except my oldest son is 33.
I think it would be a great idea to put the countertop on hinges so it can fold up and you can store your plans and maybe some small hardware organizers underneath. Love the build!
you dude gotta say i agree with 99% of what you did and said in this video but the plastic toothpick bit about the swiss army knife maaaaan i can't live without that thing 8) still got it. Love the cabinets. Thank you for sharing your skills.
There's a reason you're the first Google result for 'build garage cabinets' - nice and fast for the more advanced builder, sense of humor, and plans available for those just starting out. Great balance!
I have looked to try to by the Baltic birch, any idea's where I can get this product???? I have looked locally and nothing. No big box stores sell this product. Idea's??????
I conquered K.T.T. years ago buy this one simple rule; every new toy I make them get rid of a toy they don't use anymore. Kids are remarkably good at this kind of decision making.
Just ordered your plans and I can’t wait to start! Just waiting for my table saw and router and I’ll be a building fool! Look forward to building some of your other builds. Keep up the good vids! 👍🏽
@@fernyblue yeah I built this one a couple months back and now I just finished his 6 drawer cabinet as well. If you want, I can send you some pics, let me know.
580K views from people with varying degrees of skill. Does anybody remember ShopNotes magazine, Norm Abram from the "The New Yankee Workshop"? or Roy Underhill from the "Woodwright's Shop" or the "Woodsmith Shop"? It would be great if a wood worker channel provided a long form, step by step video . Can anybody think of a person that has stepped out of the norm and provided a long form interview with some success?
KTT has been eliminated in my garage by building above garage door storage! I have 11' ceilings so it works great! I also ran two more down the sides and no more toys on the work floor! WOOT!
Wow, nice! But how do you deal with "daddy, get that toy down please!!!". I'm a big fan of keeping it where they don't need my to help to get to them. Got a better mouse trap?
I don't usually comment, but after seeing you make the effort to get matching shades of ply cabinet fronts on another video I was surprised to see here that the larger draw fronts don't match the smaller draw fronts. I would have had to make the openings line up across the run. Sorry, I've been told I have OCD... Mmmm ? I do enjoy your videos, but wish you spoke slightly slower... just kidding.

Probably my favorite woodworking TH-camr out there. I've never felt like I got shafted when I purchase plans from this guy.
Glad I've been able to serve you well! 💪
Where can your plans be obtained. Thanks
Just bought the plans and looking forward to building these for my workshop.
Can't decide between dowel and glue or pocket holes.
Awesome, enjoy the builds! Both methods will work great, so go with the one you feel more comfortable with.
Thank you for keeping the guard on your table saw! I see way too many TH-camrs remove theirs.

holly sh********! you did them extremely custom! nice!!!!!!!
52 here and cargo shorts are timeless...I wear them with black socks and sandals... Lol....
I can’t wait to start this, gonna do the wall cabinets first!

i liked the store bought ones :+
Great job!
great video the problem I always have is finding the materials. for example a reasonably priced drawer rail can't find those at homedepot
Just purchased this plan from you :D
I have a shop smaller than a 1 care garage and have to store punching bags tennis racquets and so On
Cool this is what I need for sure! If only I have those same power tools!
It's a journey! I've built the collection over a long time. Can build the cabinets with a circular saw if needed
Brad,nice job on the cabinets
thanks!
Nicely done!! However, what is the jig you used at 1:17 to nicely drill the holes for the adjustable shelves?
I'm curious, what did you use to build these plans. they look great
Cargo shorts will ALWAYS be cool lol
dang right!
Rigid, M12 Fuel, and Mikita all making an appearance here, drool!
It is great!
Thanks!
Great video, I just purchased the plans that will save me a ton of time and just get started. Thanks for helping me.
did you consider making the drawer unit you put in the seating portion of the desk, as a roll out cart? that would have given you both storage, and kept the option of sitting at the desk.
I did consider it but opted not to
I think the last one I would have made so it was on casters and could pull out and still use the desk when needed.
yup, that's a good option too
Awesome
Can you do a video on a detailed explanation how to lay out drawer fronts and size them in a row ?
KTT! It's officially a thing! We get it! and we have it, too. A shed might help!
TotalBoat not really a problem here, as the kids tend to destroy everything, or leave it lying around the yard. Or both...
Veri nic shop
I am jop wood
Awesome job, subscribed and looking for more ideas
thanks for the sub!
Thanks for sharing that, good help!
1) cargo shorts still cool 👍🏻 2) KTT solution for me was to build a shed in the backyard, $800 solution. 3) I am definitely building those cabinets! Thanks! 4) Just subbed.
KTT🤣 the struggle is real! I use my tandem garage for a shop (front half) and then KTT took over my wife’s spot so we both park outside, for now.....
Well at least you have one part solved with the cars outside 😀
Oh I’ll get there soon, it’s gonna start getting cold so I’ll put everything in storage. Either that or we’ll move into a single family home and not a townhouse.
What do you do about keeping your glue from freezing and becoming usable in a garage shop?
I have the same problem. I had to finally break down a by a garage heater from Amazon. Now I have to 'insulate' my garage. I've also heard of a neat little trick of building a cabinet with a high wattage light bulb in the bottom, lined with something reflective and fire resistant, to heat the rest of the cabinet.

Where can you get Baltic Birch Plywood in 8 ft sheets? I have only found it in 5'x5' sheets.
Being a kid who took over the garage for a wood shop the k.t.t is so funny
How do the plans come? By email? Are they completely detailed? Do they come with a bill of materials list?
KTT level 10 over here lol
Please do a Tall cabinet!! There aren't any quality ones on youtube!
Been considering that for some gardening supplies and such
Yes PLEASE!
tall cabinets in the shop are tough, they eat that valuable infeed /outfeed space above the 34" area IMHO
Just a thought... But these tall cabinets might pair nicely
Not sure why TH-cam won't let me posted the URL, but Google "family Handyman giant DIY garage cabinet"

funny but oh so real

@@Fixthisbuildthat thanks thats what i desided to go with
The plans say they do not include the Sketchup plans. Do you provide them anywhere for an additional cost?
Hey, Tim. I do not offer them anywhere else. Too much help/support needed when I offered in the past
CARGO PANTS FOR LIFE
Excellent. There is nothing like custom. and particle board is such crap lol
Yep, particle board fails eventually
My KTT ratio is zero. Then again, I don't have any kids, so... But my DTT is about 70% because my dog is my master.
hahaha, just a different kind of kid 😀🐶
@@Fixthisbuildthat Arthur told me to tell you that you are right on the money there.
KTT took over my garage. So I built a shop. Now the spill over has encroached on my shop too. KTT is incurable and it will be the death of me😵
oh man, that sounds serious. If I ever get a dedicated shop there will be a "no toy policy" for sure...unless they are my toys 😀
Can anyone tell me what tool he is using at 7:06 and the purpose?
does anyone know the coupon code to apply for a discount when ordering plans?
Coupon codes are for members of the Builders Club who get codes for free plans. Patreon.com/fixthisbuildthat
KTT! Dear god I have it! 🤦🏻♂️
Question, are your plans step by step how to?
Yep!
I work in my garage, and my wife is the one who constantly says she can just park outside. But I hate leaving my car outside of the garage over night.
yeah, it's a trade off
What is that tool at (7:08) ????
Cargo shorts? Hey man I’m all about function over fashion
Same! That's why I've been wearing the same style for 20 years :)
kit is a 10...
Good luck! 😀
LMAO THE WIFE PARK OUT SIDE THAT NEVER HAPPENS
I had to make concessions for that, believe me :)
I am sorry... But I am in that same boat
K.T.T isn't won until the little crumbsnatchers move out, lol
WOW KTT lollll ohhh my good , i have a 20 x 30 garage and i have only 1/4 of that for myself !!!!!👶👶 Before i had double that and man did i love it , so i bought tools and more tools .

At my age, "cool" gives way to "comfortable".
Yes, I wear cargo shorts.
don't forget utility too!
Are there any other kind? Who needs a toolbelt with all those pockets
And at my age the comfort of cargo shorts has given way to the extreme comfort sweat shorts. I live in Arizona, and might put cargo shorts on 4 times a year, and full length pants maybe 3 times a year at most. In a few more years I plan on transitioning to just all out naked. Well, maybe an occasional shop apron to avoid splinters.
Cargo shorts will never go out of style in my opinion. :)
