How I made a Kitchen Corner Cabinet | NewAir G73 Review

- In this video, I show how I made a corner cabinet for a kitchen that I am remodeling. This is a corner base cabinet that will house the sink.
The original kitchen from the 1950s had a straight row of cabinets that was a little less than 8 feet long. The new cabinets will wrap around to form an L and will be about 12 feet long in total, adding 50% more cabinets and countertop space.
Now that it's getting colder outside, I got a new garage heater that fits well into my workshop. It comes with a bracket to mount from a wall or ceiling. It can be hardwired or plugged into a 30A 240V circuit. All I had to do was connect a cable and a plug and it was ready to go.

Thank you for making this video, I never understood why so many kitchens have 90 degree corner cabinets when a 45 is so accessible . Great space for small appliances. We had our cabinets custom made for our current kitchen renovation getting cabinet lighting installed as well . Lights that turns on and off when you open a close the door for that large space . I know I am going to enjoy working with this corner much better than the horrible 90 degree . An conduction cooktop will be installed in the Center of the cabinet to maximize the use of that large area . Thanks for showing how this is done .
I am thinking of building one very similar to yours at my works kitchen. I built an island cabinet with plenty of work and storage space a few years ago. But wouldn't you know it, they have accumulated more stuff they presently have stacked in a corner. So.. a corner cabinet will help out this situation a great deal! Thank you for this video!
Your work is second to none may God continue to bless you and your family outstanding job
Yes, i would. And I just might. Thanks for sharing.
Mike
Blum makes a hinge just for your application.
They are more money but time is money.
Great job..the boxes looked great.
Great job with the build may God continue to bless you and your family
I wish videos of this type had instructors who had tools, Jig’s and clamps most of us watching would have
I think it is an amazing job. Even master's can make mistakes some times and thus you learn more.
Yep, the master's can cover up those mistakes. ;)
Excellent job
I agree would have gone with a face frame on that application just because of hinges or maybe look for a different hinge setup. Nice work and video
They do make hinges for 45-degree doors, Lee Valley has them, they're called cross corner hinges, I get Hettich brand hinges from my supplier, but the Blum ones are pretty much the same thing. It's not a hinge I use a lot, but they do work good
I built a corner cabinet very much like yours and like you ran into all kinds of problems with the hinge. I settled on a 170 degree hinge from Blum but it was trial and error to find the right place for the boss hole and the plate.
Just a suggestion ... make yourself a drill jig for future positioning of the hinge location. I’ve never been to fond of non face frame cabinets. I’ve learned over time to make the jigs for hole location. Take care
I don’t think I’d make that one only because it seems really deep. The doors tight. It’s good work regardless. We are rebuilding our house from Hurricane Michael & cabinets & that kind of thing is on the list.
Given the wide surface, I think a 1/2 x 1/2 cross beam support would help.

Nice video. New subscriber here! i like your videos
I thank I would have used a corner block on each side inside the cabinet ripped on a 45 to mount the doors to that would have gave you a 90 degree opening
Technically they are opening 90° from the face.
That is a very large corner cabinet. I have had many issues in the past getting a cabinet that size through a doorway into a house. I see that your cabinets do not go to the floor and are placed on top of a 4-inch or 4 and 1/2 in substructure as a base. So the cabinet is 30.5 in tall. Even so it can be challenging tipped on its side to fit through some typical door openings. Also. Quite often we have had to install shelves in corner cabinets while they are being assembled because you cannot install them after the carcass is built.... the shelf is huge! Other than that it looks like terrific quality work
Very good point! I was fortunate to have an exterior door leading into the kitchen that was about 31" wide, so it just barely made it! Otherwise, I would have had to assemble it in the kitchen, which would have been much more difficult.
I never comment but this show is terrific the bob ross of wood working amazing
I would make it but with the face frame. I make all my cabinets with face frames.
i make two vertical posts either side at 90 degrees to the front opening and the open wide hinges and it works just fine plus i put shelf in before assembly. ps i don't think you need to have a solid top when you are putting a work top on it.
working on the same thing ordered some custom cabinets no face frame the cabinet maker of course did not provide hinges and i think made the doors to wide. I will never use them again because the lack of experience is apparent. I had originally decided not to use them cause I could see it but the shop i wanted to use was booked way out. anyhow attempting to figure out and fix the issues.
I will be making it, but mine is going to have one panel fronting a drawer/tray holding the garbage and recycle bin.
You ought to try spraying the panels prior to assembly for the inside. ... thanks for the video.
Yeah because wood glue sticks so good to paint.
@@1pcfred with brad nails it will be strong enough, or there is this stuff called masking tape you can use as well.
@@nhannguyen-sr9vh or you can glue it and then paint it. Which is what any reasonable person does. Brad nails alone will not be nearly as strong as PVA glue is either. Also if your joinery is tight enough paint on two surfaces parts just won't fit. Taping a project like this off in order to paint it is complete horseshit.
Frederick
I was thinking that he needs to practice painting with a sprayer more. Can't tell for sure on camera but what little we did see it didn't look horrible.
I would have probably added a angled piece of wood near the edge of the cabinet an then mounted the doors to it, With the angled trim on the inside, this would have allowed the door to open much more, Or put the trimmed piece on the door an it would have been out of the way when the doors would open,
Nice heater
use a face frame looks better and is a better job and will eliminate the hinge problem.
Can you come to Brooklyn NY and reno my kitcken? I need a cabinet just like that.
How do you like the Sherwin Williams Kem Aqua? Is this something you only use for the inside of your cabinets or can this be used for doors as well. I plan on building my own Kitchen from scratch and want to paint everything. However I'm conflicted if I should Pre-Finish the Plysheets before I even make my first cut or finish it when everything is assembled.
I'm glad I discovered the Kem Aqua Plus finish and highly recommend it. The Surfacer dries very quickly and, with a light sanding, provides a smooth surface for the Kem Aqua Plus. The Kem Aqua Plus also dries quickly to a durable finish. I've used it on cabinets, doors, and drawer fronts, and it's a good product for all of those applications. If I were making cabinets, I'd lean toward finishing them at the end to give me the chance to conceal any production defects or abrasions caused by handling. On the other hand, it might make things simpler to spray on the Surfacer and one coat of Kem Aqua Plus prior to making your cuts, and then apply a second coat of Kem Aqua Plus once everything's assembled. Good luck with your project!
- Mike, thanx for the video. What brand name paint sprayer did you use ???
It's actually from Harbor Freight, so not a high-end sprayer, but one of their better ones. The brand name is Chicago Pneumatic. It has worked well for me, but I'm by no means a professional when it comes to painting.
i like your video
Combine that all uses glue. I think thats a good idea
Helps to have 2 people on that assembly/Glue-up
Nice cabinet but why no face frame or insides?
I have got to make a Upper and a lower for a New kitchen. 2023, Now I am really scared. Might just let it be ‘Dead Space’
Its not easy to build a corner cabinets. It turn out pretty good though. 90° door opening is not a big deal. I my self still figuring out how to fulfill my wife's intention to shift current stove in the corner. May be you can show how in your next video! Regards...
Before I put on the top I would add a turntable with rounded shelf’s
That's a good idea except this cabinet is for the sink, so it will have all the plumbing inside the cabinet.
I always cut off the back corner, that goes into the corner of the wall, at a 45°, too. Come back about 6" from that inside corner. That way it fits into the corner a lot better. When taping and mudding the drywall on inside corners the wall always gets built out just a little, so a square cornered cabinet hits the inside corner of the wall before the rest of your back panel touches.
Is that explanation clear as mud? 🤔
Next time put a filler on each side cut at 45 angle that gives u a 90. No problema before u uput the finish on so it looks all one piece also ia that oak plywood because maple plywood is better for pait grade
That's a great tip. Thanks! I think the plywood I used was paint grade birch. It might have been maple (not sure), but definitely not oak.
What kind of blade is it? i would like to know, thank you.
@WonkaaVision 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
7:50 It might be best to glue that thing up in the kitchen where it is going to be installed since it is so huge...sideways it's 34.5"..the typical home's doors are 32" and this would not fit thru them unless you live in a mansion and in that case I'm sure you could afford not to need to make them.
I'm thinking about buying a cheap home depot version for only $127 then using it it to use as a template to make my own and only use the wood (birch) door and face frame..I would then refund it after using it as templates. The 36" wide version rather then the larger 42" as I have a small kitchen and little countertop space.
I typically make the toe kick separately rather than it being integrated into the cabinet. That makes it easy to install because I can shim and level the toe kick first so that it serves as a platform that I can sit all the cabinets on and not have to worry about leveling each cabinet with shims. The other advantage of that method is that the cabinets are less than 32" when turned on their sides so you can get them through a standard doorway.
I don't think I'd like those doors opening only 90° (~135° counting the 45°). It really leaves a narrow opening for such a cavernous space behind the doors. I get it that the shape and design comes with certain limitations though.
Hola muy bien el trabajo qué clase de pistola usa para pintar gracias
Esta es la pistola de pintura que usé: amzn.to/2WAj2Pb
I did , If you go too greg eastman on you tube an look at" all made from pallets" you can see my corner cabinet
As how much people hates IKEA they do have hinges at 185°. The quality is ok but would help tackle this little problem. Ofcourse no install instructions but with a test setup your be fine. Or take some measurements at IKEA.
hi
just put a strip of plywood at each side screwed from the top and bottom and through the centre through to the plywood side about 90 or 100mm 90 degrees with the front of the cabinet and hang the doors off of this i have done this several times as i used to be a kitchen maker befor having to give up work due to illness also in ireland we use blum hinges that you can put on to the gable as you were doing but they are especially for corner units like yours and the doors open to about 90 or 100 degrees
great video and i hope this helps
Thanks for the tips. I chose not to use Blum hinges for this project to save a bit of money. Maybe I should have considered them for this application because they're definitely great hinges. Maybe I was being penny-wise and pound-foolish.
@@Woodumakeit
no you were not been that way at all we all do things to suit our budgets
but the plywood strip down the sides would give a much easier job for you to do as i know even the blum hinge plates can be difficult to put on an assembled cabinet
i used to always have the plates on the gables before assembly i had a set up for boring all the hinges the same distance from the top and the bottom of the door so it was easy to make a hinge template for to mount the hinge plates on the gables i know you painted the interiors but the plates could be masked off mostly always i used melemine finished mdf in the gables so it was a little easier to have the plates on first as i had no painting to do
but for ease of use if you are doing another corner cabinet try the plygood strips to make a mini gable for the plates
all the best
@@james6609 I'll definitely give that a try. I really appreciate the advice. Thanks! --Mike
@@Woodumakeit hi mike
you are more than welcome i like to help where i can
i still have a great love for cabinet making even though i am unable to
do that work any more and i really hope that it helps you in the future
all the best

@@james6609 Hey James, I have to replace a hinge in my kitchen that has the same angle as the one in this video. Which Blum hinge can I use? Ive been looking for awhile now for a replacement. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks.
I have a similar corner cabinet my issues is counter to do cover that depth. Any Ideas? That design kind of limits choices other than laminate
I had a granite top made for this kitchen. They cut countertops from large slabs, so covering this depth wasn't a problem for them.
Already know how to cut. Needed to know how to measure for resulting dimensions. But I guess maybe I am asking too much here. The heater was nice but WTH?
Все супер, но зачем такие сложности?
This Is next on my list of cabinets to build, do you happen to have your dimensions on paper that you could share? This is relatively close to what I need to build.
Hi Mike. If you have SketchUp, I could send you a copy of the drawing that I used. If not, I could add some dimensions to the plan and you could work from that. Either way, just email me at woodumakeit@gmail.com and I'll send you whatever I can to help.
@@Woodumakeit I have sent an email to you sir. Thank you for your quick response.
@@fimmerson Somehow, I didn't receive your email. Maybe you mistyped the address? Please give it another try and I'll reply back.
@@Woodumakeit Ok I have resent and just realized I never added a subject. Thank you again for your help.
Отличное видео! Я понял, что у Вас холодно. Давно не было видео) Почему? Я не пишу на Английском. Жаль. Но мне интересен Ваш канал.
Я попробую ответить на русском языке с помощью Google Translate. Прошу прощения за то, что у меня не было видео в течение долгого времени. Причина в том, что я купил дом, и у меня было много времени, чтобы его отремонтировать. В этом месяце я надеюсь выпустить еще два или три видеоролика, которые связаны с этой кухней. После этого, я надеюсь выпустить видео более регулярно. Спасибо за просмотр. Я определенно ценю отзывы, которые вы отправляли!
@@Woodumakeit Поверьте, мне интересно! Я следы за жестами, надеясь понять и человека, и его действия) Спасибо Вам за ответ! Вы добрый человек. Надеюсь, что у Вас все будет хорошо. Удачи Вам!
Cabinet or heater video?
whats the name of the wood used?
pine ply wood and solid pine board for edging
What did you do for the countertop?
I put on a granite countertop. I shot a video a couple of months ago with the finished kitchen and a pull-out spice cabinet that I made, but I haven't finished editing it yet. Hopefully I can release that in the next couple of weeks.
@@Woodumakeit thanks.
I'm doing a similar corner base cabinet sink but not sure how I want to do the countertop yet. Have not been able to find anything yet, may have to custom make one myself.
It would be great to see such videos made without the machines that your average do-it-yourselfer doesn't have. Eg without the table saw. Great video for ideas, however. Thanks.
camera2painting the right tools for the job, it is what it is.
If you don't have a table saw then maybe you should not be trying to make cabinets?
why not hand paint?

What is that heater costing you per hour... not per kilowatt-hour. Or per month?
My electric bill is running about $30 per month higher than last year. I've been keeping my garage fairly warm this year and I run the heater most days around the clock for glue-ups, epoxy, and finishing, so I don't mind the added expense at all.
@@Woodumakeit thank you for that bit of information most appreciated. I forgot to ask what part of the country do you live in the Northeast the West the South excetera? Approximately how many hours a month would you estimate you're using the heater during the coldest conditions of the season? I currently heat the shop with a wood stove and a gas heater Thanks again
@@Marrio49 I'm in Northern Virginia, just outside of DC. It has been running since early November and I set the thermostat to range between 55F and 72F, depending on what I'm doing. The average temperature throughout the winter has probably been around 60F. I only have one 220V outlet, so I need to unplug it when I'm using some of my tools, but that hasn't been a big issue. I'm not really sure how many hours it actually runs, but I can hear it cycling on and off quite frequently throughout the day to maintain the temperature.
@@Woodumakeit thank you for taking the time to answer my questions. I live in Central Maine and the weather up here is like Antarctica so I guess I'm better off with the wood stove and the gas heater. Where Maine is 90% Forest there is plenty of free wood if you willing to put in the time. I use the wood stove to bring the temperature up from about 10 or 15 degrees Fahrenheit to about 50 and then I kick on the gas heater and that maintains the temperature. To bring the temperature up from 10 to 15 degrees up to 60 with the gas heater uses too much gas so it's economically wise for me to use the wood stove in combination with the gas heater thank you. I like your videos as their right to the point without too much over talk as so many of these can be. I have a Festool random orbital with a variable speed on it and I love it have you ever tried one of these?
@@Marrio49 It sounds like you have the right set-up with a wood burning stove. I would definitely have something like that if I was out in the country and had access to the firewood. I have not tried any of the Festool tools, but I know they're supposed to be top of the line.
Ya lost me at the heater. :/
Можно было все на евровинты скрутить, не пойму к чему весь этот геморой
It's easier to roll paint then to get yourself sprayed.Bottom line God bless
I know Woodglut has the best woodworking plans.
I prefer to build with Stodoys plans.
