- Hey All and welcome to The Bearded Woodworker. Thank you for stopping by. In this episode I make a bathroom medicine cabinet out of old used fencing boards. These boards were literally out on a fences for years weathering away. After cutting the split ends off and ripping the edges, I yielded some pretty good looking boards.
The backing is a piece of 1/4" plywood, glued nailed and screwed in place which made a great support for the screws that is holding it snugly in place in some 2"x4"s wall studs. I used Sherwin Williams's water based marine grade clear coat to protect it in the bathroom environment.
If you have any questions about this build, please feel fee to leave them below down in the comments. Thanks for watching!!

Beuatiful!!
That would be beautiful! I'm looking at a bunch of fencing I have to replace but hate to throw away... :)
Go for it! My clients really loved it!
Really nice thank you for sharing
I love it! I built one very similar out of reclaimed leftover fence pickets as well.
That's awesome! Thanks you. So glad to hear my idea wasn't all that bad. 😉
Great idea to use a square as a nailing guide. No pencil marks to sand off.
Thanks David! Sometimes I have ok ideas.🙂
Same here I have been meticulously penciling in the alignment, such a simple technique yet immensely time saving. And removes those few times when your throwing something together and eyeball it and miss one or two of em.
Lol. That's what I was thinking. Turn it on it's side to screw in the doors.
This video helps alot! Thanks!
Ha! I know, right?! Sometimes the thinking cap's on a little too tight....😆 Thanks for watching!
I dig it! It would look great in my bathroom. 🙂
Same here!
Glad I came across your channel. I am about to replace 436 fence boards. Wanted to do something with them. Thanks for the inspiration.
You bet! Good luck with your projects!
I like the patina on the wood, I need to keep an eye out for a couple of projects I have. I want to make a few simple boxes to hold hardware. Would look cool if it was in the same style... Nice work Gary...
Thanks, Andrew! Some little hardware boxes would look great in that old fencing. I think I want to make some wine boxes with the left overs, myself.
Nice work, Gary. That's a great way to recycle material!
Thanks, Robert! I was totally ready to put it in my house if my client didn't like it.🙂
@@TheBeardedWoodworker There’s nothing wrong with that!
Nice work
Thanks you so much!
Can't believe I have never thought to use my speed square to line up the brad nailer, so simple. Im laughing myself right now.
Yup. Me too.
Thank you.
No problem, David! Thanks for watching, and the comment.
Cool idea, I have a bunch of spare fence panels in my back yard, you have an idea for an experiment. Thank you!
Awesome! That's WHT I make these videos, is to help inspire the creativity! Good luck with it!
Nice work! Great personality! New sub brother.
Thanks, brother! Welcome aboard, I hope you will enjoy my content. I appreciate the comment and the sub!👍
My favorite part: “Sometimes I use my brain.”
Did you clean the wood before bringing it inside
What size did u cut the pickets to
Why don’t you put the clear coat on it before you attach all the pieces?
Well it would definitely be easier to clear coat the wood before putting it all together. But because I used wood glue and I wanted a good bond, the clear coat would actually prevent that. The glue penetrates the wood for a strong bond. Very good question, though.
Nice work
Thank you so much!
