DiResta | Floating Nightstands Project

  • Опубликовано: 7 сен 2024
  • Jimmy DiResta builds a set of floating nightstands. These nightstands mount directly to the wall to make them look like they are floating. Jimmy used walnut to create the cases. He demonstrates how to make mitered corners and reinforce the miters with splines. The drawer boxes are made using the new Rockler Miter Fold Dado Set.

    Very nice build Jimmy, love that dado set. And to all those watching who subscribe to JImmy's channel and are looking forward to seeing the new shop be built and getting a chance to attend a class or two. Don't just hit the like button, go to Patreon or send a few dollars to Jimmy to help him build the dream shop. It would be really nice to say you had a hand in building the shop and giving back to Jimmy who gives so much of himself to us for free. I do this on my own and Jimmy didn't ask me to do it. I have met his brother John and spent a few days with him. These are some great people. Thanks.

    Nice work Jimmy.
    So true about milling up a little extra "just in case" you need it deep into the project.
    It is such a pain in the rear when you have to stop and mill extra wood during a build.
    And Thank You to Rockler for supporting Jimmy.
    You support Jimmy, and I will support you. Deal? Deal.

      While this dado stack is cool and all... the set is pricey for the regular home guy who's not profiting off their creations. And I get that. However, just because this dado stack is the new kid in town, let's not forget about the Lock Mitre Router Bit. Creates the same edge profile, even works on ply and 1/3rd the price.
      That being said, I would totally use Andy Klein's creation. I like the origami aspect of using a single sheet. However, I do not have a Table Saw in my shop, and no plans on getting one. I prefer to use my Track Saw. I do have a shaper table however, and love my Lock Mitre Bit!

      Saw a video a while ago when these dado stacks were first developed. I am glad to see the guy got it into production. Have made a few apothecary cabinets with upwards of 40 drawers. This might be a winner.

    Another great build where I learn a lot from you. This time is was the use of splines. I was working on a project wondering if I should use dowels etc... then I saw this video. Splines worked great and are very simple. Thanks for being an inspiration.

  • @MrColinALewis
    @MrColinALewis 7 лет назад

    Thank you Mr DiResta and thank you Rockler for supporting Mr DiResta. I'm just starting to make things after being inspired by the DiResta library of videos. I even bought my first table saw. These videos are changing the way that I look at things. I've alway struggled c creativity but these episodes and the "Making It" podcast have taught me to exercise that part of my brain. They've introduced me to another world. It's therapeutic. Thank you!

    These turned out great. Loved that you didn't put in knobs/pulls, and those knots add a great character. Really interested in Andrew's dado stack, will need to keep it in mind when I embark on building all new vanities and remodeling the kitchen. Thanks Rockler and Jimmy for the video.

    Great Build. I recently built a nightstand that came out really good but I'm now thinking these floating nightstands will be the trick. Mu bedroom is not very big so I think these would get me the storage I need and also make the room look bigger with the open floor space.

    Hey Jimmy. Love your vids man, thank you for making them. I've picked up a lot of tricks from watching. Here's a tip you might like to use. Whenever I have to glue up frames or box shapes, I use a ratchet strap(s) to wrap it after I spread all my glue. The minute it gets taught, the frame or box trues up pretty close and you can clamp in a square afterwards just for good measure. Cheers!

    'I don't have a jointer...' I just have a 6 in bench jointer, so I mostly end up using a No. 5 Jack plane (LN) for flattening lumber. Pretty quick with practice. We need to chip in and get you one

      Too "deep" object for FC. Think about it.

    • @MattFeith
      @MattFeith 7 лет назад +1

      I agree. I think the only way a french cleat would have worked was if he put a screw into the wall keeping the cleat from lifting off, and the cleat was only there to distribute weight. I like the way it ended up being attached to the wall better than a french cleat anyhow...

      @ClimptonDiddlehopper 7 лет назад +1

      Robert Schuster the guy I saw layed out the joint by hand then did a 3d rendering g of a saw blade/shaper blade and that was the last I saw. nice to see it went into production as it gives more surface area and tested stronger than a half lap or biscuit joint
