Made from solid Pennsylvania Cherry, this cabinet includes hand-cut dovetails and a custom glass door. This was a quick one-day build (minus waiting on the custom glass) from some cut-offs I had on the lumber rack. Check out more pics on ...
That’s an attractive bit of casework!
Beautiful workmanship. Picked up some good intel throughout this build, though surprised you domino'd instead of dovetailing those stringers. Thank you for sharing with all of us!
@@branchandfoundry560 Agreed 1000%. I had every intention of dovetailing the stringers until I accidentally cut them short by .25” each. 🙄🙄. That was enough to make the tails way too small for stability. It was one of those moments where you just stop and stare at your mistake for like 10 minutes. I could have remade them but I would have had to use stock I was saving for the drawer fronts. It was a hard lesson learned. One of many on this build!!
@@RPBasilio Ha! Been there 👊
Great build (from another guy in MontCo)
@@timbotrout thanks, man! 👊👊
Very well done sir!!
@@woody1320 thanks!!
Beautiful piece! You've provided several tips whether you know it or not on Dovetails I can't wait to try. I'm about to start a blanket/toy box in mahogany. Where do you source your wood? It looks lie good quality wood. Especially would like to know where you get your quarter sawn sycamore.
@@rjrotermund that’s great! Always happy to hear the video was helpful. Just about everything I have learned with dovetails came from watching others on RUclips. It’s an incredible source! Most of my wood (especially the figured wood) comes from Hearns Hardwood in Oxford PA. Everything else, including the sycamore, comes from MSW hardwood in Sellersville PA. He’s got a good selection of the quarter-sawn stuff
@@RPBasilio thank you so much. I will check them out. I've been using woodworkers source on the internet. Their wood is good quality, but it does take a long time to ship and it's quite expensive. Thanks again for your videos. I know they take a long time to film and edit, but it's much appreciated. Just about everything I've learned I've learned from others on RUclips.
Все конечно круто! Респект и уважуха. Но странный набор инструмента. Два рейсмуса, а шипорезки нет. Даже у меня есть полный фарш от Incra, где нарезание шипов фрезером доступно даже подростку. Хотя ни такой торцовки, ни таких рейсмусов ни всего остального нет. Впрочем, повторюсь ты крут!
WOW! Beautiful! Sycamore?! Doesn't it tend to twist? I absolutely love your shop! Your shop furniture is prettier than most people's living room furniture!!!!
@@rjrotermund correct! English Sycamore. Probably one of the prettiest boards I have ever used. No issues using it, thankfully. And yeah, I completely intend to try and sell most of these boxes but I have problem letting go. Haha. Most end up in the shop, which means I need to buy more tools to fill them. Lol
That's beautiful, but it's not free for the hobbiest. No one pays for their wood.
The blue tape idea to make dovetails is genius!! I do a lot of work with Walnut and seeing the lines can definitely be a challenge. I don't know why you haven't shown up in my recommended videos, but I'm glad I found you! Beautiful work.
@@rjrotermund blue tape and double-sided tape are probably my biggest shop expenses. It makes joinery so much easier. And it’s cheaper than getting an eye exam and new glasses. 😂
@@RPBasilio LOL! I'm a bit older now and eye sight is definitely a problem. Are you in the US? What brand double stick tape do you used? I have not liked any of the brands I've used.
@@rjrotermund I use the brand Xfasten. I get it from Amazon and it’s incredible. Comes 3 rolls for roughly $22
@@RPBasilio thank you! Subscribed to your channel and loving your work. Thanks for sharing.

Love the tool chest I would love one in my garage. I would have kept it just the wood grain instead of paint personally but painting it would be more durable I guess great job love watching you work and build these beauties
@@carolmoore3706 I do plan on building another out of pine and not painting. I primarily painted this one to match an antique version I once saw.
I totally get it I do like it i think for a garage it’s perfect I love the ones you have in your shop the wood you choose the grain it just works. I am not an expert at woodworking but i would love to give making something like this for myself.
@@carolmoore3706 I actually created build plans for this box if you are interested. If so, and if you’re on Instagram, send me a DM with your email address and I’ll send it over to you. 😁
Awesome I don’t use instagram that much but I’ll go over and follow you I would love the plans to give it a go thanks so much
Stunning work and presentation. You have a new subscriber.

Wow. Just amazing. The skills you possess and demonstrate just awesome. Work of art Thanks for sharing.
@@jvarblaze7495 thank you so much!
Awesome. I’d definitely watch a shop tour vid if that’s something you’re interested in. Always curious how other ppl with smaller shops lay everything out :)
@@Hg99661 it’s definitely on my list of videos to make. Shop is only 170 sq feet so it definitely gets tight at times. Especially larger format builds like this
@@RPBasilio I hear you brother. My walls look like a racket ball court I’ve banged pieces of wood off them so many times 😅
@@Hg99661 😂😂
Omg i absolutely love this the wood you used really popped the grain of the wood is amazing you are one talented person
@@carolmoore3706 thanks again, Carol! The wood that was used for the case was one of my all time favorites. Hope to find another just like it some day
Nice work Rick, I hope more woodworkers watch your channel and see that stupid antics just don't fit into woodworking. You got a new subcriber.
@@richardpeterson7714 thank you, Richard! You have no idea how much I appreciate that comment. Honestly
@@RPBasilio Rick, I'm serious about your fine woodworking skills. Please bring on some more excellent video's. We can't hardly wait to see more.

Nice work Rick. Was that a 3ID patch on the back wall?

Маэстро в студию... 🎉
Hello. Will you kindly explain the tool you used to layout your dovetails? Appears to be an Irwin combination square retrofitted by adding a brass wedge. Did you come up with the idea?
Hi Leonard. The brass dovetail guide is actually made by Dirty Leg Craftsman. I’m not sure if he is still making them but this is one of my favorite tools in the shop!
@@RPBasilio thank you for the reply. His website does say "sold out".
I’m glad I found your channel my friend! I follow you on instagram and love your work great to see full build videos. Very methodical and precise work keep it up
Thank you so much! Truly appreciate that. Still learning the editing process but it gets a bit easier each video 😁
Very nice work. Congratulations. Is there a reason for using sapele mahogany instead of real mahogany (Swietenia macrophylla)?
@@pietspijkers1006 thanks! I chose this species due to the figure. I wanted something that not only contrasted from a color perspective but also the grain patterns
Too bad you painted it. The naturl wood finish would have looked more classier.
I was wondering the same thing. I am supposing the paint would be more durable, but the natural wood looks great.
Definitely went back and forth on the decision to paint. In the end, I was looking to match an antique case that was done in a similar color/style and it held up pretty well over the years. However, I agree with you that the natural wood could have made for an incredible look, as well.
Hi Rick. Thanks for the great build! Question- I see that you use your Veritas DT saw more often these days then your RC DT saw- any particular reason? Thanks again, beautiful work!
@@GrizzCraftCustoms Haha - great observation! My RC saw will always be my absolute favorite. The ONLY reason it’s not my go-to right now is that it needs to be sharpened. I haven’t learned how to do this properly yet, so I’m currently using the Veritas saw. This saw is nice but it’s a much more aggressive cut, which I’m not crazy about. One day I’ll learn to sharpen hand saws and get the RC back in the game. 👊👊
Great looking project, I believe if I were to attempt to make this, the only change I'd make,is instead of the wood panels,I'd replace them with panes of beveled glass
@@chrisbrown456 funny you say that as one of the original designs had Morisco glass panels. I’d like to make this project again in the future in this manner
@@RPBasilio If I were to t4y this,id be tempted to use tiger maple,with beveled tempered shatter-proof glass
Absolutely beautiful i love the wood i wish I could come across something like that in Australia rather then a stain
@@carolmoore3706 thank you so much, Carol! I can always ship to Australia 🇦🇺! Haha
@@RPBasilio I wish lol it would cost way too much to ship here. Love your work though
Lovely work- I enjoy your style of video editing as well: just the sounds of the work. Thank you!
Thank you so much! Not much of a talker so it works well for me. Haha
Love the veneer on the doors. The whole piece is a joy to the eyes. Walnut is my favorite of all the woods. It's hard for me to move away from it, at times. Great work.
@@juliakathryn2582 thank you, Julia! And I agree on Walnut being a favorite. No matter how many times I use it, I’m always blown away once the finish goes on.

I like the way you present your video. Step by step, no music, no fripperies, just easy to understand visuals. You do amazing work. You are certainly at the top of your craft. I love the finished product. Beautiful melding of wood colors and textures. Thank you for presenting this video.
@@frelnc thank you so much, Mary. Truly appreciate your comment. Glad you enjoyed the video!!
Awesome!
Nice work as always, Rick. Do you do anything after the dovetails come together to fill in any slight imperfections? I know a lot of people that use PVA glue and sawdust, but wasn't sure how finish would look using that method
Typically I do. I have yet to do dovetails where they all come out perfect. I have a feeling I will be chasing this for a very long time. When I fix gaps, I go with the old stand-by approach of wood glue and sawdust. However, for darker woods, hide glue works even better. Thankfully it’s small enough where the finish is not impacted
