      What grade of plywood are you using? Pine with B2 veneer?

    its refreshing to see good work from someone that doesnt have a 5000 table saw

    Nice to see a channel with a shop that has sawdust on the surfaces, and no Festool/Sawstop. Makes everything feel much more achievable.

    • @meilyn22
      @meilyn22 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Wait! Seeing a sawstop makes things less achievable? What's the difference between that and just any table saw?

    • @amrielkissner906
      @amrielkissner906 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @meilyn22 It's not really but videos with lots of high end tools and an immaculate workshop are way less relatable for me.

    LMAO during your going through the "shelf of doom" I was reminded of someone I know. You Sir are what my Wife calls a hoarder, the hoarder is me. Great comedy, and good stuff on the build. I like someone who makes some mistakes, those perfect guys scare me. I'm in the midst of the same exact project, wish me luck.

    OMG. I can so relate to when you were cleaning off the shelf. LMAO The paint tray is classic and EXACTLY what I do, but when you got to the super secret trick for tubes of silicone, ........ I absolutely lost it! Because i do that also!

    Watching you clean off that shelf reminded me of all the tricks I use in my storage corner. "What is this and why is it in the garage?" So very true. As for the tool bags: I had a cat that used to sleep in one of them. I had to toss it since it smelled like a cat. I thought about filling one with random tools and tossing in my truck, but I was afraid someone might try to steal my DeWalt bag and with it my collection of mismatched screwdrivers. Keep up the great work and I look forward to more videos. Subscribe!

    I always enjoy a video that makes me laugh, and cleaning the shelves - I believe we have all done that, including inhaling quite a bit of dust. I use those small bags for "to go bags", when I just need to take a couple of tools to help someone - they work well for that.

    You're a braver man than me, throwing things out like that. If hoarding stuff and then finding it untouched/unopened years later was an Olympic event, I'd be bringing home the gold. The thing is I keep that stuff and don't throw it away because I know I might need it for a future project. It happened once. About 17 years ago. I know it will happen again. Any time.
    By the way, nice cabinets. Hoard stuff and hide it in cabinets so no one can ask, "Why have you still got that?"

    • @OutoftheWoodwork
      @OutoftheWoodwork  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Ha! That's usually my thought process, but this time I think someone has been putting stuff on the shelf without me knowing! 😂

    I work in a fabrication shop. We have dozens of those bags. We scatter them around to act as supplemental dust storage and temporary spider nests. Some of them we keep in case we might need them later - whenever that is.

    I use license plates as heat shields for copper plumbing. It helps to hold a no-scorch blanket. They just kinda drape and are hard to hold anywhere. I just tape them to a plate and wedge it between drywall and copper pipes.

    I actually throw away most all of them there tool bags. I’ve saved 1 or 2 for small tool/parts transport goin to my daughter’s house to fix or install. I’ve always wondered why most all TH-cam woodworkers buy their door/drawer pulls for shop projects. My outfeed table is 4’x8’ with 6, 24” wide drawers. I made my own pulls from scrap maple, made them 18” wide. They look great and work great and my friends always comment on them. Maybe an idea for a future video? 😂. Keep on making sawdust!

    How will those doors hold up against warping? I am about to build something very similar, and am worried the doors won't last (I have never built doors before). The cabinet is going to be made from 18mm plywood, and the doors are either going to be 18mm as well, or I might go for 12mm (but that might make them more prone to warping?).
    Great video, will use it for reference, thank you!

Thanks for the free plans also it helps a lot to succeed in confidence 😉. Last but not least I’m glad to see you more in good shape I was worried about your last videos where you seemed to be very tired.

    Oh hun, you made me laugh so hard! I too save stuff for "just in case" and then wind up throwing it out. I have found that doing a yearly clean out has helped greatly with the hoarding. All of my painting supplies went into a snap-lid tote. And then there are my parts drawers. Screws separated by size. Nuts, bolts and etc. My family knows to return tools exactly where they got it from or face my wrath. As I am a bit older than you I had to face the hoarding/stockpiling early when I moved. Man that was a major lesson in not keeping everything! Cabinets look good but my concern is that since you didn't make them to the ceiling that you are going to create another stacking/junk pile on top of the cabinet. Thanks for keeping it real and not editing out the oops with the holes!

    I too go through stuff every once in a while (not frequently enough) and wonder "what was I thinking - holding on to this?". I have a bunch of the DeWalt bags and have the smaller ones tucked away for carrying job specific tools off site. I have a couple of the larger ones that I've made specific purpose, one for plumbing tools and another for electrical tools. They come in handy to grab when I'm doing a project of that sort. Like someone else, I use the totes for paint supplies, one for drywall, one for tiling, etc. - Chris

    At the time lap 15:42, you are trying to open the right side window of the cabinet....and I can see that it touches the edge of the window of the other cabinet not letting it to fully open. I wonder how you can open the inside windows of the cabinets when they are closely fitted like this?????🙃🙃
