Watching you build projects never gets old! I love your descriptive narration and your humble safety tips and tricks. Thank you for doing what you do. My hat goes off to you.
Really nice, Marie. You solved all the problems I was thinking of as you built it. My biggest concern was that of the larger end slat not entering the track or going around the corner but you had it covered. Bill
Thanks, I always enjoy your videos. A couple of thoughts: Your videos are always thorough and your delivery is no-nonsense and, for the lack of a better word, humble. Much appreciated. This is a wonderful design, I'm thinking I will apply it to a night stand build to hide the usual clutter. I suggest easing the reference edge of template while cleaning up on the sander to provide a means of pulling it off the work piece - similar to what you would do to the bottom of a large cutting board - that will give you purchase when separating the work piece. I'd wax the track to help keep the door operating with seasonal swelling.
That turned out beautiful and is unique since you don't see too many pieces of furniture with tambour doors. Thanks for all the great tips! BTW, your photography skills are excellent. Your photographs look totally professional like they should be in a book or magazine!
Great job. You do amazing job explaining everything as well the great tips along the way and not afraid to show your mistakes. Keep up the great videos
I really appreciate all the links you provide for the tools you use, really happy I found your channel. Your information delivery is excellent. Thanks! 👍.
Nice work. That should keep your camera gear dust-free. BTW - the link to your benchtop sander doesn't link to your benchtop sander. Good video, Marie. Thanks for sharing.
Very cool! Thanks for sharing! I've never attempted a tambour door project, but seeing this video makes me want to give it a try! The one question I have is: when it came time to do the rabbeting on the top and bottom slats for the tracks, couldn't you have done this step even before slicing the board into individual slats? Just slap a rip blade into the table saw (where the teeth are ground flat) and progressively rabbet the board, then cut it into slats and go from there? Just thinking out loud here.. In either case, thanks again for sharing! It's inspiring!
Question, could you cut the rabbit on the ends when you first start processing the boards to make the slats ? Or would cutting them earlier increase the chances of something not lining up ?

Another great video Marie. Love your explanations, especially the occasional mistakes and how you deal with them. After all, we are all human.

Thank you very much!
That looks really good. I find it different that you placed the tambour going side to side. I have never seen it done that way myself, but clever. 👍
what a great build! i hope to tackle a tambor project one day...
Very nicely done! Thanks for the inspiration as always. Stay safe.
Really nice, Marie. You solved all the problems I was thinking of as you built it. My biggest concern was that of the larger end slat not entering the track or going around the corner but you had it covered.

You made that look so easy, but I know it wasn't. Great job.
@DIYMontreal thanks for the lesson. I appreciate all your hard work recording and editing too!
The cabinet turned out great!
Thank you!

Yes, good alternative. Just thought I would get a cleaner and more even rabbet this way.
Excellent
great video
Superstar !!
👍great video
Love the videos!
Just curious, what design software do you use? And don’t like it?
I use Sketchup
Question, could you cut the rabbit on the ends when you first start processing the boards to make the slats ? Or would cutting them earlier increase the chances of something not lining up ?
Yeah I think it could be done that way.
Odds a routed-out ‘prying groove’ features in the next template: EVEN
I should probably know this but how did you figure the point for compass placement to ensure that the tip meets both lines at 90 degrees?
Measured 3 inches from the line on each side and where they intersect is the pivot point.
Hi, did you als consider to make the corners of the board in 45 degrees, instead of a butt joint? If so can you tell us the reason for the butt joint?
I chose to tackle one complicated thing at a time is all 😂 Mitered corners would have been nice for sure.
Xin chào thật tuyệt vời 👍🎉👍🎉
waxing the slot might help a bit...
great content...I'm building a tool shed to make content similar to yours...comments!!
Would have thought a upholstery spray adhesive would have been a better option?
Maybe but this is how most people seem to do it based on my research
