Howdy fella ..just found your channel. Cabinet maker for over 25 years and a few points that people who want to try to learn and may get frustrated with their results. People will always want to say, and I am sure you have heard this, "you make it look easy". First: Your tools are an extension of the result of your work just as much as the skill to use them. What I mean by this is, quality tools and blades may cost you a lot more than walmart specials but will save you more in the long run in time and quality. Second; Keep your tools and equipment in top condition. Service your tools. Keep your blades sharp or keep sharp blades. SQUARE your circular saw and jigsaw! ( or any type of table or guide to cutting blade ) Make sure the plate / guide on each isn't bent. I can't tell you how many times I have seen people trying to do accurate work with tools that it looks like they pulled it out of the junk pile bent every which way and wondering why the pieces they cut were so bad. Third; Learn how to properly use the tools. I find it extremely sad how many high schools have decided to do away with Industrial Arts. Learning a skill, I believe, is just as important as math, science or a second language.
Thanks! 😁
@@MWAWoodworks Matt, keep up the good work. I wish you were a bit closer as I am up here in the northeast. Would love to talk shop and see your setup.
Love your reply! Tools and especially sharp high quality saw blades and tools will ensure your project is top notch!
Can't teach practical skills in school anymore, the shop class budget has to go to the football team now. Every single time.
You're so right , i learned a lot in shop class in highschool, it's a shame schools have cancelled those classes , schools have failed our kids !
You have mastered the art of making a video to the point. Not a second was wasted with gibberish - outstanding!
I second this comment. Super refreshing.
THIS! The youtube-usual ten mins of introduction talk drives me to madness
One of my biggest pet peeves is when ppl take forever to get to the point and you have to fast forward through all their filler talk
How deep is the groove/dado made with the table saw?
10 seconds in and I can tell you that the first 6 seconds served no purpose 🤣
Jigs and spacers. Jigs and spacers! I never saw a tape measure in this video 😄
You've got this down to a science. I think I learned more during every minute of this video than I ever have on RUclips. Loved it 👏
Wow! This is how to make an instructional video. No rock & roll music, funny faces, kids, or time wasted with stuff intended only to be a filler. A bonus is that all of the structures you show will work in my soon to be new house 2 car garage shop. Can't wait to watch the others.
Awesome 👍
A masterclass of both woodworking and video making.
There are hundreds of cabinet build videos. Some are even good. Yours stands out for quick pace while covering everything. Very well done.
Yes. Very good video. Get the plywood, cut to dimensions, assemble and you have just learned how to build the cabinets in 20 minutes.
I’ve made plenty of cabinets, but I still love watching how other people do it because I always learn something new. I really like your jig for holding up the cabinet doors while you attach them
This video has it all: pocket holes, dados, cabinet fronts, awesome tips along the way, and great guidance. Looks amazing! Thanks for the video
That was one of the best videos on cabinet making I've ever watched, thank you for taking the time to make it.
The amount of detail in your narration is incredible. You deserve an award.
Pretty amazing how you crammed all this info in 19 minutes. Kudos to your workmanship, quality and editing skills Mister !!
I love how you show other ways of doing things for those of us that haven't got massive wood shops (although I'd love to have one)! Thank you!
Outstanding! Thank you for all your time and skill in making and sharing this video. You are a wonderful gift to the woodworking/DIY community.
Sir. Great video, clear concise and no added unproductive chatter Thank you. Our local community college runs a cabinet making course and it would prosper greatly having you as a professor. I've been making cabinets for 50 years and happily learned as I watched through your video. As a much younger man I was taught to build cabinets with the toe kick as a separate base peace. That allows you to level the kick before topping it with a cabinet after which you cannot shim the rear of an installation. As well I prefer corner slides, but that's just me. thank you from a new subscriber.
What a double whammy piece of work. Excellent total demonstration of cabinet build with zero wasted time as well as a masterful use of the video giving a clear view of everything you did. You are one of the few leaders setting an example of excellence that many so called You tubers could learn from. Well done and ....yes I an now subscribed
I really like that you show other ways to mill the lumber. I'm sure that there is plenty of DIY folks like me that don't have is many tools as you. bravo to you sir and really respect your craftsmanship.
Fantastic job on the video, this is my number one favorite cabinet building video on RUclips. Talk about efficiency and effectiveness of words! I’ve watched it at least six times in preparation for building my own cabinets. Thank you for the great instructions!
Same here lmao. Do mine next month and im constantly rewatching these videos to see if im missing anything before I get started
Lot of great tips here. Love the tip about screwing in the drawer faces in. I had a hell of a time doing this and this was was ridiculously easy.
Only thing I'd add is I usually put pocket holes in the carcass for the faceframes, They turn out great that way!
I honestly just wanted you thank you. I have watched this video several times and I made some great cabinets. Couldn’t have done it without you!
Great overview of the process. I really like your assembly steps, flipping the cabinet to keep your parts perfectly flush - very efficient!
Love this build - you make it look so easy! I really like that drawer front instal tip, that was slick. Very nice work.
Absolutely love these cabinets! Especially that they are shop cabinets. Can't wait to have such cabinets in my shop😀
Straight forward and no gibberish! Great video. I want to make cabinets for my workbench and this video inspires me!
I have been making hardwood-only projects for years now and I've been thinking about expanding into cabinet-making. This video is exactly what I was looking for!
Very well done. I really appreciate you showing a variety of methods since we don't all have the same tools.
This is a great guide to start building cabinets! Exactly what I was looking for. All the essentials, straight to the point. Thank you!
A guide to start to finish!
Im a Cabinet Installer, Not a cabinet builder, this will definitely help when Im out on the field. Thanks
So many useful tip! My favorite is the milled 1/8 space for seamless installation of the drawer faces!
I run a custom cabinet shop. You did a pretty good job here man! Made it pretty easy to understand
This is one of the best videos I have seen. I've been watching videos for the last two months as I put the final touches on my first "real" shop. My first two projects will be built-ins for different rooms. I picked up at least 5 great tips I never thought of nor have I seen elsewhere. The first thing I did while watching the video was to pause a minute into it to order that Caterpillar. What a great item! To be able to use that and my trac saw to cut the panels to size before moving them to the basement is huge for me.
I'm subscribed. Great job with the narration and build.
Wow thanks for your support and I'm glad I could help you that much I'm so inspired and humbled 😃
@@MWAWoodworks It's deserved. Do you have any plan to make a video on painting? I like that TV stand you made.
I do! I'm going to be doing a video on my spray setup
Perfect video for me! I like the way you broke down every detail of each piece of wood and walk through why & how each piece is built and installed. It was a great & protection wood woodworking video. Thank you…
Simply put, you’re the best in what you do! I have learnt a lot from this video than I could ever imagine. Thanks for your time for putting this together in a step-by-step fashion. I have subscribed and liked the video! Bless you for blessing the world with your wealth of knowledge and experience! Cheers!
Plain language, clear steps that are easy to follow. Wow, just wow. Thank you so much for this video!
One of the best cabinet builds I’ve watched. Thank you so much.
Hey thanks those are kind words indeed!
I'm always looking up on RUclips for Tips and inspiration on diy projects...never been disappointed but every now and then I get lucky and find all that and then some. Such is the case today after watching you at work. Talk about knowledge, efficiency and well articulated ideas that are very easy to comprehend. As it was said in a previous coment, Not a minute was waisted in this very well presented and explained and video. Much respect and appreciation to you Sir for spreading your knowledge and inspiration. Blessings to you and your family!
That was awesome to watch! I loved you actually did use both versions instead of just telling people it can be done! You are right. You did add a huge amount of info, but that is what watching the video once more or twice is for. Thanks a million.
I am going to rewatch this video a few times before making new kitchen cabinet drawer boxes. You showed a very nice way to accurately mount the drawer slides to the drawer and cabinet. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
You're welcome 🤗
I absolutely love these cabinets would love to have these in my kitchen
I have been skitish about making cabinets, but your video has removed some of the fear! Thanks so much for referencing at points about not needing certain tools!
By far the best instructional video I have ever seen. Not only instructive but also very informative and easy to follow. Now I am 100% confident that I can make any cabinet for my own use - as I am not a professional cabinet maker and wouldn't take the risk to offer myself to do someone else. Thank you very much!
Thank you for a very good and informative video. I like that you show a lot of details and alternative methods, and the tempo is fine.
Apart from actually building it, the big challenge for me would be to "translate" the use of all your machines/tools to my few and much simpler tools (and lack of building space).
Matt, THANK YOU SO MUCH for making this video! It was SUPER detailed and informative! Keep up the awesome content brother!
My pleasure and thanks for supporting my channel!
Perfect video!! Thank you so much. I just finished 2 Vanities because of this video.... I got the go ahead from my wife to build our kitchen. I owe you one.
I've spent several hours watching cabinet construction videos on RUclips, and this is by far the best one.
Hey Matt, GREAT video brother… I like your style of filming your videos! No messing around, straight to the point with nice tips! Well done homie 👊
Thanks Brother! No time to mess around , too much to say! 😜
Outstanding video! Really like the details you included and will help me in the future! Love your channel, keep them coming!
The cabinet itself is straight forward. I like the frame fronts and the Jig to align the Handles. A nice inspiration to my outstanding fronts in the shop.
As many others have written, this is a really excellent video for it's pace, information density, and clear to-the-point dialog - VERY well done. (and lots of useful info to boot - I have learned quite a few techniques by watching and re-watching it)
Thank you so much for the kind words!
Thank you for a bunch of tips and techniques that will make building my shop cabinets a lot easier.
🙌
That was a cool way to attach the drawer faces using the handle holes.
Great tutorial.
Thanks
I absolutely love the way you attach the drawer fronts.
This is by far the best cabinet-making tutorial out there!!! Kudos Man!!!!
Thats the best Video for making cabinets! Keep going man, dont ever Stop! Regards from Germany
Thank you, my friend! Glad you liked it.
Great video. I’m about to tackle a bathroom vanity project and this is great help!
Yeah these would totally work as a vanity
@@MWAWoodworks йй
This is a work of art. Unbelievable how easy you make this look
Through this excellent video you have covered what over 30 other videos have taught me!
But yours have some efficiency and more clarity! Thanks!
Even if this video was hours long I would still remain glued to every second of its contents.
Thanks.
I suspect that I might be needing your help/advice. I'm thinking about a project.
I love the video. What's the cost difference making your own vs buying pre made?
Absolutely brilliant video. Only thing wrong is those handles, they act like hooks and you're forever catching clothing on them - we had them in the kitchen and drive me mad!
:D
I gotta say, I really like the way you build your cabinets, when I outfit my garage I am going to use your method. Very nice!
Very informative and great step by step instruction. I’m always intimidated with cabinet construction, but feel I can now take it on. Thanks!
One thing to add on toe kicks. Depending on where the cabinets are going, and the context of the install, I will build my carcass without the toe kick. Then I can build a base frame on the install location, level it, and then just set the cabinets on top. The frame is inset so you realize your toe kick at this point, and you can modify your carcass height during the initial build accordingly. This can save a ton of time in some cases with not having to beat your carcass into submission because nothing is ever level.
My dad is custom cabinet maker he builds the way described
@@aaronoconnor606 maybe a diy but industrial cannot be done this way
This is how cabinets are required by law to be built in Australia
agreed - I built cabinets for about 10 years in 2 different shops and we always built the toe kick/base separate. But yours works well and really nice job on the video!
My only critique would be brad nailing the back end of the drawer bottom rather than inserting it in a dado like the sides and front. I have found drawer bottoms tend to let loose at the back over time when heavy items get tossed in the drawer. I always put mine in the dado at the back as well. Yes, it does take a bit more time at assembly, but it makes for a stronger drawer bottom in the long run. I liked your idea of using the foam for a worktable. I was a cabinet maker for almost 50 years, and this shows you can still learn new things from others.
Appreciate the video man, great quality. I have been a cabinet finisher for 12 years and i'm looking to start my own business. Need to learn how to build cabinets though so this helped ALOT.
Awesome info. Been woodworking as a hobby for many years. But have forgotten "pieces" or parts of the info stored upstairs after a brain injury. This vid helped me put those pieces back in storage!
Really good guidance on how to make cabinets, a prefect base design that fits everywhere. Just one advice, for a more heavy duty project pocket hole joinery is more strong if you screw from the outside (holes can be seen instead of hidden insiden)
Thanks for that tip !
I’m sure that’s why he put them on the inside.
Great video. How do you go about planning for the size of the cabinets, doors, and drawers so you know how long to cut all of your parts. There are a lot of measurements here and if you have one wrong it would throw the whole thing off. Thanks.
I use SketchUp or Fusion 360 to model everything out and take measurements from that 👍
@@MWAWoodworks Do you sell your SketchUp files?
The best video on cabinet making I’ve seen yet. Thank you for taking the time for educating us and for being concise and to the point.
Thank you 🙏
I'm about to begin putting my workshop together and was planning on making base cabinets for putting a countertop on and these cabinets will be perfect for the idea I have thanks.
Thanks for making me want to build a cabinet now… 💁🏻♀️
🤗
You explain what your doing in an easy to follow manner. Tks now I better understand how to preform this task.
Right?
There’s always use for a cabinet lol
Great video buddy!
Thanks Jason!
Fantastic; I can do this.
Update: Your website has answers for everything I could ask or need. Thank you very much for putting in such hard, good work. Before I start I will be purchasing your plan bundle. Thank you!
Preparation, Sequence, Methodology, Technique, Knowledge and Experiencia!
Efficiency and productivity!
And of course, marvelous communication skills!
All this compacted in less than 20 mins!
This video is a lesson that should be universally applied to all trade, profession, vocation, and career in industry, commerce, education, health, government and private sector!
Your pocket holes are aimed the wrong way, they are heading towards the edge instead of into the meat of the panels you're joining the braces to. The pocket holes should have been drilled on the opposite sides of the braces - - that way they are stronger because they're aimed in the correct direction, into the meat of the panel AND they also will not be seen on the inside of the cabinet. If you do it that way, once the cabinets are installed, the pocket holes will not be seen even though they are on the outside because they will either be up against a wall or the floor.
Still waiting for plywood to drop in price for my shop cabinets. Mine will not be as nice as yours though.
I totally get it. It's a real investment right now.
Great video. I must admit I had no idea what you were talking about most of the time but I enjoyed watching you make these cabinets for your shop...which are nicer than what the builder put in my home.
I went to school for cabinetry fabrication and trim carpentry...I love seeing how "others" do it always some good to know stuff gets picked up! ... great video!
I really need more knowledge I only learnt carpentry from my father. How can you be of help to make me better sir.
The curse of doing something you love in return for money is: the customer.
I've never understood why every frakkin' tutorial on attaching drawer slides goes through the use of some complicated measuring or jig to position the slides on the sides of the drawers. Like you, I simply install them flush to the bottom, the logical place for them to be.
I agree this is easier and how I would do it, but why is it the most logical? Wouldn't centering the slide on the drawer pull technically be the most logical since it eliminates the off-axis torque being applied to the slide?
It seems most intuitive to me to support a weighted box from the bottom rather than hanging it from the top or partly up the sides. Any off-axis torque in the system would be negligible. (Of the three positions, the top would be my second choice, probably as easy to install as at the bottom.)
Well I LOVE complicated jigs, but in this case, simply not necessary 😝 aligning them with the bottom is so easy and it works.
Undermount drawer slides are what I typically use, but I cant justify putting those in shop cabinets.
Respect brother. I’ve noticed your clean and you take pride in what you do .
A+ video, A+ editing, A+ voice over, A+ duration. You nailed it. Great vid.!
Birch plywood sounds too luxury for me...I am just using those cheapest cabinet grade plywoods at home depot.
It all cuts the same 😜 but birch plywood is only like 8 dollars more than what you're paying for at HD.
i dunno.
¾" UV ply was $30 cheaper than ½" osb a month ago...
Based on experience, you will find "cheap" HD plywood not worth whatever you pay. It is unstable, warps, delaminates, has voids and the surface veneer is so thin it tends to peel. You can get very good quality ply from a real wood supplier that is cheaper than Baltic Birch.
Great woodworking skills, great teaching skills…..great video, you helped me a lot. Thank you
You make it so easy. I need to make some cabinets for my house as well as all new doors. Thank you so much for your great videos.
Best instructional cabinet building video ever produced!
I love the way you get right to the point on all things !!! Thank you for great videos
Best tutorial I’ve seen. Very logical method.
Best cabinet building video ever. Full of great information. Well done and the flow from beginning to end was excellent.
🙏
I have watched this video 1000x already. I have never made anything of this level before! Thank for such a detailed easy video, I also bought the whole enchilada pack!!
How are the plans?
I just got a prefab shed. But your videos will turn it into a dream shop. Thank you.
Great instructional video! Clear, concise and thorough! Nice job!
Another easy to understand and good looking set of cupboards and drawers…excellent 👏👏👏
I usually use double sided tape to mount my drawer fronts before screwing in from the back, but I'm going to try your method next time. I've always drilled for handles/knobs after install, but doing that before hand, allows for your method. Thanks for the video!
Surprisingly good work and good quality tools but the details to your work and how safe and proper you did everything was amazing and shows you are a quality worker which you really dont see much of anymore
Nicely done. I've seen numerous videos on this topic and have my own method. What I love about your method is that it incorporates methods for a high level of repeatability, efficiency and accuracy. Nicely done.
When you have three kids and a full time job, you need a high level of all those things all the time 🤣🤣
Excellent job No wasted time This is the best video I have seen Thankyou
Amazing! You turn a difficult project into very simple steps!
Your video has been so helpful to me. It has boosted my confidence in how to build cabinets. THANKS
Great video. Another tip for attaching face frames with glue is to put a finish nail halfway into the carcass face then snip it off right above the surface gives a sharp “no slip” anchor so your face frame won’t move while gluing it to the carcass.
First video I've watched of yours- thanks RUclips algorithms. Outstanding video!! Clear, entertaining, concise.
Really like to see the side panels load bearing to the floor, great video, your system is as good as it gets, thanks for sharing.
