Using a peg board as a template for the shelves was brilliant! Awesome build :)
Glad you like it!
I never undertand where people find all these nice colors and varnishes that make the wood look so good.
Great idea, April. Thanks for all the good content. Looking forward to the next one. Stay safe.
Glad you enjoy my channel. Thanks for watching!
Love how you do things like a normal person 😁
Yes, I am very normal. There is nothing special about me that makes me able to do these projects. I learn as I go, building on my experience, learning from my mistakes. Thanks for watching.
Ms. April, one of the many things I really enjoy about your channel is the fact that despite all the large industrial-level tools you have access to, you're still making plenty of videos that nearly any DIYer can do at home with a moderate tool collection, and some improvisation, if needed. The little hacks (like using pegboard for a template) are also great! On a personal note, I'm sure your parents are extremely proud of you. My wife and I don't have kids, but if we did, we hope ours would be much like you; smart, fun, independent, innovative, and full of joy about sharing their knowledge with others. We think you are such a great example for young women everywhere. And yes, my wife and I very much enjoyed seeing you on Assembly Required and now More Power! You rock! :)
Thank you for your kind words. I'm glad you enjoy my channel and the Show. :) Thanks for watching.
You make it look so easy. I love how you do everything yourself. I work alone as well which often requires a great deal of creativity. A great build with lots of enthusiasm. Thanks.
Thank you so much!
Yeah she's great! ... but when you have a 5k sf shop and 1M bucks in gear - well then it is almost easy.
Just found your RUclips channel. I watched you probably five years ago building your shop. I'm sorta self taught person also. I build from wood or steel, I have overhauled everything from lawn mowers to tug boat engines. I'm great at figuring out electrical issues ( AC/DC), I love.messing with hydraulics. In my younger days I built an engine before I owned a car. Use to build race car engines and love to go hunting. I'm now 75, just retired last year. I took a geology course over the last year, know more about rocks than anyone wants to listen about. I just took up restoring old military guns, and got my C&R licence, to buy direct old guns, that are over 50 years old. I have a motorcycle and pickup truck that I hardly use since I retired. I take a trip about every two years for two weeks to see the USA. I just retired from bidding materials for new construction and taught access security. I just wish in had done what your doing 60 years ago, you go get'm girl!!!! Work safe!!!!
Your life sounds like a beautiful adventure! Thank you for watching, I really appreciate your support.
This is the type of thing I started watching your channel for!
You go girl!
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it. Some projects are bigger than others but try to mix it up. Some Viewers want more complex projects, others want simpler. It's hard to please everyone though. Thanks for watching.
April another great project. You are not short you are only vertically challenged. You might want to watch Ron Paulk you tube where one of his subscriber built a plywood sheet lifter for his work table.
Looks great. Happy Sunday April.
Thank you! You too!
@@AprilWilkerson 😃
Very nice job. Keep making. God bless.
Thanks, you too!
Thanks for sharing April, really a great idea. Stay safe and keep up the fun. Fred.
Thanks, will do!
💥 I could really use one of those! What a great idea! 😁👍
*Keep on tractoring!*
Glad you liked it!
The peg board trick is great. What a smart idea. This looks great
Tilting the cabinet up right from the bench was stressful watching it. I can’t imagine what you felt
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching.
awsome job looks great
Thank you!
Thank you April for sharing this storage cabinet build! Yes, we need an outdoor storage cabinet! lol… your timing is always perfect! Very, very nice design and build and, I really like your pressure washer! Hope you had a great weekend! Thanks! :)
Thanks! You are so welcome! Glad you found it useful. Thanks for watching.
You could even paint the groves in couple shades darker or lighter, that effect could be mind blowing.
True! You could modify it to your taste and it would look fabulous. Thanks for watching.
I was surprised that you didn’t add casters to the bottom allowing the cabinet to be moved easily while you repurpose the surrounding space. Wishing you and your family a blessed week, gentle weather and restful evenings. Peace April.
Thank you so much!
Awesome cabinet! Love watching and listening to you April!
Thanks so much!
great build video. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it
Thanks a LOT for this Giant (indoor)
storage cabinet video/plans.
Great for me as fishing equipment
storage facility Since all my reels
are removed from my rods while put
away between trips the tall vertical
space would accommodate a LOT
of rods. 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Awesome! Glad it was helpful. Thanks for watching.
Always amazing and that's the long and short of it! Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you April. I've been needing to do the exact same thing. I'm gonna give it a try. 👍
April. It's April. :)
Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed the video.
@@AprilWilkerson
Hi April, I know I called you Amy. I think I corrected it. Sorry 😐
Turned out great April! 😃👍🏻👊🏻
Thank you!
Mad skills and quality work as always. Sweet project.
Much appreciated!
I was taught using contact cement, we used spacers( old blinds) to separate the 2 items. Position in place then start pulling blinds out 1x1. If that helps anyone.
When I watch your videos I'm always encouraged by how much you have accomplished doing what you love. It encourages me to keep doing new things when I see people like you.
Thank you for your kind words. Glad you enjoy my Channel. Thanks for watching.
Love it April. Thanks for always showing work arounds for people without the more advanced tools
Thank you! You are so welcome. Glad you found it useful.
You’re not weird for rolling around on this project April. You just like to have FUN! 🤩😆😉
Thank you for noticing!
This is great. Love the design. Your videos are great 👍
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed them!
That is an awesome cabinet. Brilliant build
Thanks! I'm glad you like it!
I agree with you, April. This is an attractive cabinet. It really could go inside the house or anywhere that you have a need for it. You hit it out of the park with this design. 😀Thanks for the video.
Thank you! I'm so glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching.
Yet another amazingly well thought out, build!
Well done!
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching.
I always enjoy your videos. Thanks for posting, and thumbs up!
Thank you very much! Glad you enjoy my Channel. Thanks for watching.
Yet ANOTHER great video with a really cool project! Thanks so much for sharing. Hope you had a great weekend!
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed the video. Thanks for watching.
Have loved your videos for years - good context, excellent production quality, great personality.
But the coolest part - is even after years of wood working - STILL learn new things!
That trick with the pegbord for lining up holes - nice, simple and clever!
thanks for sharing your work.
Thank you so much. Glad you find my videos useful. Thanks for watching.
Very cool.
Thank you!
Fantastic! Thank you so much
I'm glad you like it!
Nice job on the cabinet April! Thanks for sharing the video with us!💖👍😎JP
Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching!
@@AprilWilkerson Your very welcome April! Have a wonderful week!😎
This is a very practical build! I like it.
Thanks for watching!
That peg board idea is great in itself!
Yes! That tip is a game changer for sure! Thanks for watching.
awesome!!
I really enjoyed that. Your instruction is so good it actually makes me believe I might build something one day instead of just watching diy videos!
Thank you very much, and I'm glad you like it. I hope it inspires you.
That was so satisfying to watch. Thanks for sharing all these projects! It makes me feel inspired to improve my own place :)
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching.
Very nice cabinet!
Thank you!
The way you pressed down the plexiglass to the wood top was,... Interesting and unique to say the least. Lol
Glad you liked that! 😂
Another great project.
Would you have shown that blooper, had the stand up gone wrong?
I like when you Makers show little bloopers. It reminds people you don't have to be perfect, and things do not always go as planned.
Throughout my channel's life, I've always shown my mistakes. I've never been afraid to show or tell of my mistakes. Thanks for watching.
Hi April, been watching your vids for some years now and enjoyed your talent for wood work. I have also learned from you. I just had to comment on the part where you stood the cupboard up hoping it didn't topple over. I got a laugh from that. you are a talented wood worker. so thank you for your video's and taking the time to share your knowledge. Bill from Australia.
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoy my channel. Thanks for watching.
That cabinet definitely looks good enough to be used indoors and I love how you cut the design in using the CNC Looking forward to your next video already 😊👍👍👍
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching.
The cabinet looks great! We're so glad you're enjoying Armorite, April!
Thanks! Absolutely love it! It's a game changer to be sure!
Always love your projects.
Thanks!
Before watching this video I would have used MDO to build something like this. I’ll have to give the Armorite you used a a try.
gran trabajo, felicidades, saludos desde México
Thank you! Greetings from Texas! :)

Sweet
I like the peg board tip
Thanks!
Love this April, and learned some new tips. I’ve been working on large scale cabinets too and wish I had seen this before I started :)… very satisfying watching the power washing! And I love the Armorite product too…made some corn hole boards out of it.
Thank you so much! Glad it was helpful. Thanks for watching.
Very nice I like that design! Looks great 👍👍👍
Glad you like it!
I love your projects, this one is so useful. I like the pegboard measure system
And...I discovered paint pyramids a few years ago, game changer. It never occurred to me to use nails in small blocks of wood, dah!
Wonderful! I'm glad you found it useful. Thanks for watching.
Just perfect 😊
Thank you!
Awesome thanks so much!!!
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching.
@@AprilWilkerson you’re amazing and gifted person, I really enjoy your teaching and workmanship.
Very c I doool build April!!!
Thank you!
Awesome cabinet, April! Just curious how your new shop is coming. I haven't seen anything since (I think) you painted the inside. Any more process videos coming up on that? Keep up the good work. It's always inspiring to me to see another woman doing this sort of thing. :)
Nice 👏👏👏
Thank you!
NIce build! I like the art work on the doors. Is there any problem with the screws "holding" in the MDF? DD
Came here for the cabinet... on my way to buy a Sthil pressure washer 😄
...also eyeballin' that beautiful patio bench at the end of the video. Any build plans for that? 😃
I would have put a slight angle on the top to help it shed water instead of letting it collect there.
Great idea if out in the open but as this was under a covered porch, I didn't put an angle. Thanks for watching.
You do make these projects look a breeze 😜 awesome work as always
Thank you! Actually, if I can do it, anyone can. One step at a time. :) Thanks for watching.
Goooooo 361 and hello from the 956 !
Nice! How does it take screws? I usually worry about using screws for hinges to hold heavy doors in regular MDF. Thanks!
I built a super sized bookcase for an upstairs bedroom. I measured the height of the ceiling on the 1st floor and used the Pythagorean formula to figure how tall it could be to fit diagonally and tip into place and make it up the stairs. Unfortunately the upstairs ceilings are 6 inches shorter, so I had to cut the top 6 inches off in the upstairs hallway and re attach the top. Looks like you had plenty of room above the top.
I bet you'll be getting packages with paint tripods soon! LOL
This shelf is very nice looking as well as handy. Great build. How do you find time anymore to build anything? Thank you for your time and efforts. 👍
You're welcome. I'm not sure how I find the time, but I keep finding it!
Can you use regular wood or plywood? MDF is nasty and makes too much dust. Looks amazing, April 😇🥰👍🏼
Yes, you can! You will need to seal or paint it though but plywood can certainly be used. Thanks for watching.
Good Job April 💪👸👏👏👏👏👏👏👏😍👌❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you!
Dang! I wanna upgrade my pressure washer now!
Believe me, this one is a game changer to be sure! I loved it! Thanks for watching.
No Armorite in FL here. It would be worth the drive if I drove. Nice build thogh.
Thank you.
This turned out really good. Do you have any long term experience with the mdf though?
Been looking into building some storage for the garden in order to potentially get rid of a shed and possibly extend a gym. Only space available is about 3m wide 60cm deep area that cabinet designs like this would fit in well.
But I need to know whatever I make will last a long time and be low maintenance. Holding up to UK weather with lots of rain.
Would this mdf hold up or should I go full wood frame with membrane and cladding like a full shed design
Nice cabinet. Were those Face frame hinges? They look like Blum hinges.
Not sure if you are or ever was in North Texas but I live in Denton and was wondering where you got the MDF from? Thank you
I guess I would have opted for cleats under the edge in back of the shelves to provide some extra strength. It seems like holding it only with screws might encourage the shelf to split. Am I wrong in my thinking?
So would I. We put waaaay too much weight on shelves to just hold them up with screws. And we move stuff around a lot. There would have been some reinforcement in the corners of the shell, as well - where the sides, back, top and bottom meet.
April; you are a hilarious Glue Girl!
😂 thank you!
I wanted to see how you moved the cabinet in place?
What sealer did you use for the Armorite?
How exactly could I anchor it to the siding/exterior wall so it couldn’t tip over? With little ones running around it’s a risk with such a tall piece that might be too heavy depending on the contents of that tote.
You are too cool.
Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed the video.
how about designing a pull out drawers from a bed of s pick-up that has maybe a electric stove top .... and also a sink and other cubbyhole ....
:)
I'm trying to find Armorite locally but none of the local Roseburg distributors have responded yet to web inquiries - gotta make some calls. However, I looked at ordinary interior MDF recently and saw 3/4" sheets going for $61 at the Homeless Despot. How pricy is the exterior MDF? Also, does it come in 49x97" panels as is customary for MDF or is it 48x96?
Where the heck do you find that type of MDF?
Is there a reason you didn't also paint the pedastal? It seems to stick out raw
Cute :)
Thanks!
We have a no MDF policy in our shop, too many issues. This is the exterior closest we could use tho.
Внизу хороший домик для мышей будет, правильнее было бы оставить открытый цоколь.
Pocket holes?
I think you need MORE POWER!!! 👍
I think so too!! :) Thanks for watching.
En hidioma español seria bueno
I noticed that the location was partially covered by a roof, would that mdf still be suitable if fully exposed to the weather?
I doubt it!
💖
Thanks for watching!

What was the cost?
