This is what you get when you master a craft and decide to upgrade your skills to the next level.. hands down this is by far the most interesting video i have seen in a while. Thank you Michael.
Many thanks! I am planning on making a sunk in tambor spice rack. Your process of making this has given the correct method of making the spice rack a reality. Thanks again
I shared your thrilll when the tambour worked. I made a jewelry box for my wife several years ago with a tambour top. When I got the kinks out it worked like yours did. I'm still impressed with what I did. Glad you enjoy yours so much.
Literally been wanting to do one of these for my bath towels and for the linen closet to reduce the amount of doors we have in place. This build is exactly the design I needed to move forward with some direction, so thanks for the video!
If you have only just started watching this and seen the bits of plywood that form a zigzag start of the piece, sit it through still the end to see what happens to them FABULOUS..... I'm sure I've mentioned before but do you have a video on your table saw and the wooden slide guide as I have a nightmare with shoulders etc etc etc..... but if I didn't mention was so Impressed with your work and the furniture design on this piece (not the music lol) Incredible
Fantastic! A client has asked me to make a tambour doored console to hide his outdoor TV. This video answered and confirmed some ideas about how to make it. Thank you!
Huh, I've always wondered how a roll top was done. Very mesmerizing watching that thing roll up and down. Very nice. I think this would make a nice bread box for the kitchen. I'll have to give it a try.
Tip I got from an elderly guy for making sure the parts don’t glue together when they’re on the material. Use matchsticks to divide the tambor pieces slightly. You can cut them easily to fit just enough to keep the pieces apart and ensure they don’t stick together. It is fiddly but it does work.
I’m not pretending to be as skilled at woodworking as you are... but I do have several antiques with tambours. What I’ve learned from my observations is that if the pieces of the tambour are thinner (about 3/8” or so) and the outside edges are rounded over, then you don’t see huge gaps at the corners when the tambour panels are moving. It makes a smoother look (IMHO). Also, they will be lighter and can make tighter turns. I love all your patterned plywood pieces - especially this one!
for easier usage it can be done with a magnet and a piece of steel or iron too. I'd personally use Stainless steel for this, as that removes any chances of rust forming ,which will damage the wood. And it makes a strong enough stop, while still light enough to easily be moved again. Strength of the magnet will of course also have to be taken into consideration
Nice effect! It is a good workshop cabinet, I should really make some for my own workshop one day. The tambour cabinets I've made have a false back behind the shelves to stop things falling and jamming the tambour. I also fit a close fitting top over the cabinet to stop dust and grit falling in the open gaps between each slat too. Maybe not an issue if you keep things clean but you never know.
Super cool build! Quick tip: you can keep the slats from getting glued together by prefinishing them. It's a pain in the neck to finish once assembled anyways. Just wipe on a quick coat of 1# or 1/2# blonde shellac and you're off to the races!
I got a chuckle out of using a precision gauge block to set the dado height, then you eyeball the adjustment. I appreciate the use of the gauge block as it saves time, and you know your set up is reliable, but sometimes you just have say, "that looks about right." Great build, by the way.
A great tool that I've found for doing glue ups of long, slender pieces is to use dental floss instead of rubber bands. The waxed kind will adhere to itself pretty well on the ends, it comes in handy rolls (sometimes quite large), has an included cutter, and is easily disposed of. You can just tie the ends if you have to.
Nice work Mic ! It made me recalling when I was young (5-60s), the the TV set has exactly the nice wooden sliding door sliding to left/right for opening and from the left and right hand side sliding back to the center to close and lock the TV ! It's a piece of Art and look very SEXY indeed to my own thinking though we are talking about cyber, hi-tech feel design today ! Great workman-ship even it's a top-down slidisliding ! You just re-illustrated the detail and fine workmanship of a carpenter at the age and style of your father or even grand father skill !!! Goooood ! I really want to cry out cuz it's not about any sad issues but really get moved and excited that I still could have the chance seeing such a detail skill and heart building such a sexy sliding wooden strips door turning at the curve corner very smoothly ! 👏👏👏 👍👍👍. Keep up with all nice and detail work !
Great "how to" video. This is my next project. I appreciate that you actually show how to complete a project. Keep up the god work.

Hello my friend. It's a great project. I watched admiringly. I will try to do something like this one day. It's nice to create and share a variety of ideas to help many people. Congratulations... See you in new projects. I wish you healthy and beautiful days. Warm hug. Great greetings. Best regards.
Made many "S" curve rolltops with half curved sticks so the gap is tight in and out side curves. I'd glue the canvass and sticks, let them dry 10 minutes before ironing. The glue is thermally reactive. Reduces the messiness. Good trick to quickly repair veneer lifting too. Would wax the track after finishing.
by your tool I can see your a Master Carpenter It was a very nice build dont have most of the tools to do it myself, guess I am buying one. Still Thank You for sharing your art with us!
Dear Michael, this is a beautiful construction and is an inspiration to all of us who look and learn. There is only one small thing I would humbly like to suggest, that will improve the final finish of your product. You finish with screws countersunk. That looks a bit tacky. If you recessed the screws a bit, you can use a plug cutter to make little pieces of wood that are from the same material and can be glued, pushed into the holes and sanded. The screw holes disappear. The plug cutter set is really not that expensive. Cheers.
If I may....... a small suggestion.... the top surface of the cabinet will be (?) or could be covered by a piece of wood or plexiglass or such? In order that the Tambov wouldn’t get too much dust in it.... I’ve always wanted a roll top desk....no clue how to make it with my limited tools, skill and availability of wood.... now I have the perfect solution! Thank you so much for making this video!

Oh man, seeing that slide so smoothly in the track is so satisfying; another job well done!
Thanks Nathan!

Φανταστική δουλειά!!!!!!!με αγάπη!!!!από Ελλάδα!!!!!🇬🇷❤️🇬🇷❤️🇬🇷❤️🇬🇷❤️🇬🇷❤️🇬🇷
U deserve 10M subscribers . U are the Master of plywood. It’s art not just a piece of work. Well done

The sound it makes when it opens and closes is so satisfying

You are the master of pattern plywood furniture.
Your artistry is phenomenal and so peaceful. Thank you!
Yes Mam I am agree with you. 😋
I finally have a project to try this on and I can't wait. It's going to look awesome on the mid-century modern audio record cabinet.
It's incredible, that all the pieces you call scrap, others use for entire projects.
Nice work!
what a weird sentence.
Your videos are well-produced, easy to watch, and very informative. Love the projects.
Fantastic! A client has asked me to make a tambour doored console to hide his outdoor TV. This video answered and confirmed some ideas about how to make it. Thank you!
You can see how happy he is with the results!

Sir, you do some mighty fine work! WOW !!!
you look sooo happy! you should be super proud of yourself this is bad ass
Yeah, I didn't know how I'd like this. I thought the thickness would make it CHUNKY, but the end result was NICE.
Cheers from Downunder
Very talented
Simply beautiful only one word for that
Such a clever guy, inspired me to try patterned plywood.
Your product smooth as you teach smooth... Love the way you explain... Good job sir ❤️
Very impressive craftsmanship. Much continued success. Y’all pray and stay safe.
Would love to standby at your shop and just watch you work. so satisfying.
Your creativity is awesome and very inspiring
Nice roll top cabinet. Your work speaks for it self.
Lo más genial que pude mirar hoy ... Lo intentaré hacer ... Quedó de súper lujo amigo felicidades
Duuuude, Michael, I was so freakin excited for this project and man, it did not disappoint in the slightest! So flippin incredible!
Thanks Ethan 👊

Really nice sir!this built remind me of those tv in the 70's that has a cabinet and has a sliding doors on it!enjoyed watching,thanks for sharing sir!
I’m not pretending to be as skilled at woodworking as you are... but I do have several antiques with tambours.

It makes a smoother look (IMHO). Also, they will be lighter and can make tighter turns. I love all your patterned plywood pieces - especially this one!
Yeah! I was just guessing at it. Next time they’ll be thinner 😉
Awesome first attempt. Much better than anything I could make, I’m sure! I would love to try some, but I don’t have the workshop of my dreams - yet!
Your happy face at the end says it all. Just keep up. All the best
An idea:
Put magnets at each shelf stop and on the sides of the handle part so they can basically have different stops for each shelf to stop at :0
Or actually the middle of the handle and shelves would work out too :0
for easier usage it can be done with a magnet and a piece of steel or iron too. I'd personally use Stainless steel for this, as that removes any chances of rust forming ,which will damage the wood. And it makes a strong enough stop, while still light enough to easily be moved again. Strength of the magnet will of course also have to be taken into consideration
@@Arterexius hi there. Stainless steel is not magnetic. So steel with a bit of linseed oil coating should work.
@@hansfaberholz-und-eisen7640 Hi there, that's not quite true, there are magnetic and non magnetic stainless steels
A spring pin on the inside with holes drilled into the ends of the shelf might achieve stopping points.
Nice effect! It is a good workshop cabinet, I should really make some for my own workshop one day. The tambour cabinets I've made have a false back behind the shelves to stop things falling and jamming the tambour. I also fit a close fitting top over the cabinet to stop dust and grit falling in the open gaps between each slat too. Maybe not an issue if you keep things clean but you never know.
Thanks! Yeah, i’m going to address those issues in the next video 😉
Keep kicking ass dude! We’d love to see a really modern coffee table with some patterned plywood!
Spencley Design Co. Just built one
Awesome Rockler ad! They sure help!
Love this. Really makes me want to do a tambour. What a perfect use for the patterned plywood!
increible simplemente la mejor manera de realizar este tipo de correderas muchas felicidades y gracias por compartir tu conocimiento. saludos.
Incredible piece - elite level skill set Michael -
It's so satisfying to look at
Carpet tape works great also instead of the drop cloth and wood glue. Also no wait time for glue drying. Looks great!
Впечатляет! Я восхищен! В Вашем исполнении кажется все так легко и просто. На самом деле представляю какая должна быть точность подгонки деталей.
Amazing! I find it hard to believe that you haven’t ever made a tambour before. Wow!
I gotta make one of these! Well done and thanks for a new addiction!
You guys are lucky to have high quality plywood available for sale.
Super cool build! Quick tip: you can keep the slats from getting glued together by prefinishing them. It's a pain in the neck to finish once assembled anyways. Just wipe on a quick coat of 1# or 1/2# blonde shellac and you're off to the races!
Good to know, thanks!!
Love your work men . Amazing technique
That is fantastic piece of work. Nothing short of amazing in my book.
Love from India,well done bro.prefect result
Beautiful woork. Congratulations 👌👌👏👏👏
that´s so vintage and so cool
Beauty! Got the thrill watching it if it slides in the first time
Молодец!!! Все четко сделано. Все нравится!!! Привет из России!!! С нетерпением ждем новых выпусков!!!
That slide thing are awesome dude 👍🏾👍🏾

Man you look over the moon - and you should - you have made an Amazing job - well done 👍👍👍👍👍👍

excellent! the patterned plywood really shines here, and feels more natural than decorative. keep up the good work.
Nice work as usual and nice looking Mercedes in the back
It looks very awesome. Bloody good, mate
What a beautiful job.
Thank you for sharing your secrets! Beautiful work!
I am insanely jealous of your shop and all of the tools that you have at your disposal. :)
Awesome job man. That thing is beautiful.

I played around with patterned plywood after seeing one of your videos. You must go through a tremendous amount of plywood
recently i've encountered so many cabinet designs for various use, they are really cute and useful, i need to call our craftsman to make one hahaha
Amazingly detailed work!
This is brilliant! you are so patient!... Great job x
Great job very nice looking cabinet
So amazing job bro .. so beautiful .
Your giving me ideas! I have one of those large cube kitchen boxes with the roll top- they use to call them appliance garages.
Great cabinet, Michael. The pattern plywood just takes it up a notch. Stay safe and well. Bill
Very nice project love how it came out
by your tool I can see your a Master Carpenter
It was a very nice build dont have most of the tools to do it myself, guess I am buying one. Still Thank You for sharing your art with us!

Turned out lovely 👍
I have to agree, pattered plywood works perfectly for this! Turned out absolutely great!
I want to do that here in Philippines, wish I had that tools. Great design and gives new techniques.
I am digging these patterns it’s soothes my ocd 👍🏻
Nice work! 👍
Wow nice work sir I love it so much
From Buenos Aires, Argentina, Congratulations, EXCELLENT JOB!!!
Eres lo mejor Hermano, trabajo muy excelente.... felicitaciones 👍✌👍✌ saludo desde Brasil 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
Turned out great Michael, awesome work! 😃👍🏻👊🏻
Отличная работа,интересная задумка! Молодец!👍✊
That's pretty cool...nicely done.
It's so cool. Very nice job.

ALMost my favorite 😉
It is really nice i love it well done mikes
i’m looking to do this same idea but laid down on its side for vinyl record storage. thanks for the video
Belle realisation et instructive merci
