I bought this for my friend for his birthday as we just moved into a new house and he finally has room for a workshop. The bench was very easy to set up th-cam.com/users/postUgkxyFZUPFEey-PuqsPMxqaykBhgA1LWxFHh They center support is a little difficult to snap in and out of place at first but at least then we know the bench is secure. It was a pleasant surprise when we saw it came with clamps. I apparently missed that in the description. My friend loves the versatility of the bench. Great starter bench for his workshop and easily transportable all over our property. I wish the bench was a little taller but the other features of the bench more than make up for that.
I am getting ready to build a pair of beds for my grandkids. That extra storage will come in handy. Oh yeah, don't worry about making long videos. Some people just haven't learned how to move onto another video if it's too long for them. Great video.
it's the way you clearly and calmly explain things that inspired me to make my first furniture for my wife and i would say i'm impressed with the finished product
This is a valuable addition to my woodwork collection th-cam.com/users/postUgkxbnOKZBE4evMO5V2vroHeCjq6d_MV6wJO I still will rate this woodwork plan as the best in my reference library. It always seem to stand out from the rest whenever you go through the library. This is a masterpiece.
You just saved me the cost of 3 sets of 24" full extension slides. I've just completed my mobile cart for my DeWalt 745 and will be building three large drawers for it. I'd been looking at plans and videos for a few hours before I found this. It is just exactly what I needed to get me going on the drawers with confidence. Very clear video of the steps and very clear explanations. And thank you for not adding music to your sound track!
Awesome job sir...drawing a straight line with bare hands ...ufff....that's fantastic...your way if wood working and explaining things is so crystal clear...learning a lot from you...keep posting videos for us...live your work... thanx
A wood on wood drawer, that is just what I was looking for.
With all the little details like the measurements of the drawer with respect to the opening.
Thank you Jon !
+slaes fantastic ! Glad the video helped , I appreciate the comment
Thank you for the video. I especially like the creating step approach. I have used that most of my life and now in wood working Senior years it definitely keeps me on task. I also write a step by step approach on how I built each project. I just can’t bring myself to work in front of a camera.
I am a wannabe wood worker and I need a cabinet like this for tools in my garage. I am so appreciative of your clear instructions and sort of uncomplicated build, and your finished work is excellent. I'm looking forward to checking out your other videos with this project. Thank you!
Hi John. So I must admit that this is my first video of your’s that I’ve had the PRIVILEGE to watch. I am new to the woodworking hobby , been metal fabricator for a long time and thought I would try woodworking as my last hobby. So went to TH-cam for knowledge. And your name comes up many many times as the one to learn from. And I Agree 100%.
Your steady , consistent , calm. Approach is something I wish I had . But ty for sharing your extraordinary talent and knowledge with TH-cam .
Thank you! Really appreciate your comment
I recently discovered your channel and I must say I am blown away by not only the immense quality of your commentary and videos, but your personality aswell. Thank you for such great content, you are one of the reasons why I love woodworking so much. Have a great day.
+thank you ! I really appreciate it. tritheone
excellent, as always. Don't ever feel bad about posting long videos. The content is well worth it!
Your ability to draw straight lines without a straight edge is magical
I love how you touch base on planning and list building. It was a great reminder to myself on the importance of it. Especially when we do have regular lives to run outside of our hobbies and projects. List building and small goals helps one make the most of the little time we have left for ourselves at the end of the week. It increases the productivity of those small windows of time as well. You got a new sub. Thanks!
+Debtfreehomesteaders Thank you!
I really liked the tip about hanging the drawer fronts, good stuff!
Thanks for sharing your talent and videos. I really enjoy your channel and how you break it down. Makes me feel like I can do it too. You are so right about making smaller projects within a large one so it feels doable and each checkmark gives you energy to keep moving forward. Thanks again, Rodney
Such a nice informative teacher I'll definitely be watching more of your videos. At last someone that really knows how to make things properly and how to speak in proper terms so as we can all understand you. Keep up the good work.
Great job I like the way you described
your work you’re talking to us and not at us. Great job
This is a terrific find. I'm going to be building almost a replica, with the addition of a pull-out to make it a larger bed, to fill the back of a 5 x8 overland Cargo trailer. I have no idea what I am doing so I will watch this over and over again.
Hi, Regards from Chile. You have solved many doubts on how to make a drawer. Your idea about making jigs make the job a lot easier. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Thank you Jon very much for all of the time and instruction you put into your videos. They are very well done, organized, and professional. Also, I would be remiss if I didn't mention that the main reason I enjoy your videos so much, is that you are so sincere and such a gentleman. God bless all that you do.
I am building a nine (9) guitar stand (6 electric and 3 acostic guitars) currently with a storage front opening box under the guitar stand that will be then mounted to locking castors. The box is 1185mm (46 5/8inches) wide, 425mm (16 3/4inches) deep and 184mm (7 1/4inches) (internal) high and I have a centre wall that divides the box into two equal parts.
I have now come to the time to consider how I will build drawers that will store guitar accessories (pedals , cables etc). I set my self the goal of building the stand without screw, but I have used screws initially to construct and I have then later glued and replace the screws with dowels trimmed to the face. To say the least all the joints are rock solid. I also have a 120+ year old apothecary cabinet with solid timber drawers with similar drawer design to what you have presented except there is no facing plate. This cabinet still functions as a highly usable piece of office furniture to this day. What you have presented in your construction video of the drawers has very successfully addressed some of my nagging concerns. Little things like the non-tipping location of the back wall to the draw and the dimensions of the drawer as related to the drawer opening etc. I plan to take your construction time sequence in the construction but continue to use screws temporarily to help in initial construction but replace with 8mm (5/16inch) dowels after the butt joints are glue dried - this is time consuming but I like the look at the end.
Thanks for the video and the confidence you have given me to finish the project in style.
Thank you so much for sharing your professional skills with us. I appreciate you break down your master level knowledge to make it understandable for me as a non professional. Well done.
+Tobi M Thank you Tobi appreciate the comment
You can sure see you enjoy your work it shows in your quality end result.
Great and thank you
Thank you! I Appreciate it Mark
Jon you made my day, you see I was going to check how to make drawers in a case like yours but with a width of only 33 inches and at opening my you tube page there you were with all the information I needed, very neatly done and I will just follow it so thank you sir.
I appreciate a lot about this video. Most of all, it's the way you talk through your process that I find compelling. But it's also cool to see that I'm not the only one who uses screws to build my drawers (and sometimes cabinets)! Nice, careful work on this build -- as always. Much appreciated.
@David Shaper Here's a huge collection of woodworking plans: WoodSun. xyz
I am learning a lot from your wonderfully methodical and calm approach and your very clear explanations of what you are doing! :)
+Мирела Милошева Fantastic! Thank you
What you explain and how you explain it is divine. Especially the measurements and how simply you go about it. Awesome!
I know this video is a few years old, but glad I found it as it helps a lot with planning the drawers that I'm making for my daughters bed. Thanks again!!!
I love this wood color its one of my favorite wood color. I think you have great ideas. Good job
I've always been intimidated by making plywood drawers using dado method like this. I've always done sliding door cabinets but I feel like I could do this pretty easily. I'm obsessed with your channel Jon. It's inspiring. Keep up the great work!
Tomo
I have learnt a great deal from the cabinet build that I have just viewed. It's very clear, concise and easy to follow step by step. It has no assumptions, illustrating how and why on every step of the way. congratulations it's the best cabinet build that I've ever witnessed. Perfection.
Thanks Tom...I appreciate the feedback.
He will be doing spelling lessons in his next videos.!! Please be sure to watch- it will benefit you immensely.!!!
Hey there Jon nice work I've been watching all your clips on wood working,Iam just about to start my own kitchen build and your clips have helped my greatly.so thanks for all your help,I'll continue watching you on the tube,keep up the good work,Tony from Australia
+Tony Beverley great to here ! Thanks for the feedback Tony, really appreciate it.
My cabinet, first I ever did for my pup truck was quite comical compared to your build. At the time I didn't have a table saw and now will dismantle what I constructed, rip the wood so I use less wood keeping it lighter in weight. Your video helped me allot, ❤️ the drawers, you make it look so easy to put together. Great job! Your the best!
He can freehand perfectly straight lines. What a boss!
Thanks Brother!
Hi Jon.Thanks for making all your videos. You have inspired me. I try to emulate your process. That has really helped me to build better things. I am still very new at this. But I am getting better incorporating your techniques.
Thanks for the video I couldn't have found it at a better time. I'm just finishing up the carcass of a shop cabinet and have been wondering how to make the drawers. They be wood sliding on wood no drawer slides. The butt joint at the front is a good idea because it's simple/easy and I think with glue and screws it will hold. I appreciate all the suggestions for clearances on width and length and the extending the sides past the back so the drawer is still supported when fully extended it something I wouldn't have thought to do.
+Richard Marton Great! I'm really happy the video helped out. I've been making drawers like this for years they'll last four decades. Appreciate the comment Richard.
I enjoyed this very much. It’s interesting to me that you didn’t use a dado stack to cut the dados for the drawer backs. I suppose depending on the number of dados you need to cut, nibbling it out is more efficient than switching the blade over then back. Also, I believe I would have been inclined to use 1/2” ply for the bottoms, due to the drawers being rather large. Or I might have added a support strip on the bottom in the middle.
rewind it several times, you made my life much easier, no thank you is enough for what you learn us
It's amazing how many tips you can get in a 13 minutes video, there is nothing here to dislike... p.s. I'm gonna work on that freehand straight line ! ;-) Thank you!
Great Job JON 📐🔨
Good job on the drawers, I am setting up my shop and this is a simply way to get good looking and functional storage space. I really like the fancy pencil work.
I especially like that you don't use any tracks. I've often wondered why we don't see that more often!
8:11 dammm! I couldnt get a line that straight with a ruler, let alone freehand!
+Gas'n'Oil ha :) thanks man
Gas'n'Oil I said the same thing. Anyone freehands a line that straight I trust everything he says. I subbed as soon as I saw that. if your reading this thanks a lot I'm so doing a project and this was great.
No kidding. When I saw that I had to rewind it. Felt like I was watching someone do a magic trick.
he was using the wood as a guide people do this all the time its a good trick to save time
Gas'n'Oil he's a artist, he paints
Top chap . Well done for keeping the explanations simple
That's the best drawer build guide I have ever watched - and I have watched a lot.
Awesome!!!!! Can't wait to see hole project finished
Really enjoyed this video. Your comments about staying organized were spot on. Again, well done.
Thanks Greg
Thank you so much! Just had a bathroom drawer break...needed to know how to repair easy for a do it yourselfer like me!!
Looking good, I will be waiting for the finished product.
Of all your videos.. this video @2:45 shows how you're a genius where you invented an item that allows you to do cross cuts with a table saw without kickback. Subscribed!
Thanks!
Great video, I've enjoyed all your videos. I have two tips I'd like to share.
1, the bottom sides I do a roundover (my idea) to reduce friction when sliding drawer in and out.
2, from woodsmith shop video, I use Desk Top Fasteners (they have a figure 8 shape), added to front, inside cabinet face frame.This will stop the drawer from getting pulled out.
It was video WoodSmith Season1 Episode 108 Ins and Outs of Drawers.
Excellent clear instruction!
Awesome tip with the extra material behind the back of the drawer! SMART!
Excellent video! I like how you keep it simple Simon! I learned quite a bit from this video, but that is the biggest lesson. Thanks for such a concise explanation. The video's length was 'just right.'
I very much enjoy your projects. you have such a precise knowledgeable way of building everything.
Excellent instruction!
I really enjoy the way you present your videos. They are very informative.
Very informative and helpful. Your presentation is exceptionally skilled and a pleasure to watch. Thank you.
Awsome, detailed and snug fittings!! Joyful to watch.
Great video Jon! I love plywood it has a certain charm.
You make it look easy Jon 💯🎯
have watched that vid numerous times already 🤣🤣
Ok seriously Jon you're killing me. Lol. I spent three hours making four drawers last night for the desk. And today I still need to go back and fix why they are not sliding smoothly. lol. Great video.
Good video production. You don’t over talk everything during construction. Good stuff!
Nice video Peter.
I prefer to do tung and Grove when working with plywood. Its easy and strong.
Regards
Very satisfied Sir! Job well done
I really enjoy your videos. The beauty of making furnitures the right Way. Keep going!
Your videos help me a lot understanding carpentry things TYSM!
Jon, I really enjoy your videos! Easy to follow, great information and the end result is always so wonderful. My first build was your blanket chest and it turned out really well. Keep up the great work!
Thank you Garry
Very nice Jon. Don't need a headboard, but the build video will help on other projects. Thanks.
Draw a straight lines without scale.. Amazing.!
VERY VERY NICE VIDEO. Thanks
I love your precision with your work and how you convey that through instruction with the video tutorial. Thank you

Awesome job now this is going to help me a lot. I am building a bed with drawers for my nephew.
When you grow up with the metric system then you watch these videos it is so hard to keep up. Countries that use imperial or USCS have invested so much in sticking with it this long eh. Too late to change. It's a shame I miss out on so much because it's just so hard to listen to someone listing off fractions with such natural ease.
@Mo b Dick Ha, I worked with an old codger in Paraparaumu who would yell out measurements to me in both. My tape only had metric. He was great at maths but terrible at communication.
Growing up with imperial makes me hate metric. Doesn’t take much to convert either way!
Moved here in Italy and the best thing ever is working with metric! 🇨🇦🇮🇹
I grew up living and using both in US and foreign countries. Quite easy to convert but most Americans have no clue or are Lazy and don't wanna learn but their way. Metric is alot easier then our us system nothing to convert
Hi Jon I'm new to woodworking really like your videos clear direction and explain all details
Ok ok ok... I'll head back out to my shop to continue work on my cabinets.. Thanks for another great video.
Brilliant shop!
I like the trickleaving some draw side extending beyond the back edge
So glad I found you! Thanks for all the tips.
Professional job. BR from Poland.
Love this video, I've used this same technique when building platform beds for my family.
Excellent tutorials! Very east to understand!
very high quality presentation. Thank you for posting and keep up the great work !
Will do Thanks James
Excellent information and instruction, and I’m a teacher. Love your stuff and please keep it coming.
Nice job and your presentation is very clear.
Amazing video. Words can't describe how motivational this video is. So clean and neat.
I love watching your videos because you did not use the pocket hole screws which is very expensive in Australia. I like how you made these drawers at a size that is very appropriate to my needs. And I changed your storage bed into a single bed instead.
Great..thanks Jodie
beautiful, beautiful, beautiful your job.... congratulations!
Very nice and helpful video 👍
Relaxed and to the point manner, cheers
Jon, one of the things which table saws don't seem to be able to receive here in Germany, at least the so called "Job Site Saws" which most have in their hobby workshops, is the dado stack system. It seems popular in the states bit I see here that you don't use one. Why? All those draw dados could be done in one pass. I use a Bosch GTS 10 XC table saw which is really good for what I do. It's spindle however isn't long enough to accept a stack. Again, love your stuff man 👍
Excellent presentation...
Excellent tutorial on drawer building, Jon.
Really appreciate all your videos, keep them coming.
Top Drawer Craftsmanship Sir !
Nice looking work You do.
Thanks. I’m hoping I can use this to help me with a project I want to do. But everything will be by hand as I don’t own a bandsaw, just will have to be less ‘fancy’
you do a wonderful job make some great points, because someone with dyslexia needs to make notes sometime i have to check dimensions 5 times and cut once thanks again burien wa.
Very good job!
