Thank you for the video. I really like the end results. Maybe others would disagree, but I think hearing the shop sounds without the heavy background music would make it even better.
Thanks for the comment. Am really pleased with how it turned out. Am currently building a second set of 64 drawers, this time to house all my nuts, bolts and washers.
Outstanding build and I love the slogan, "The old ways are not always bad. Change is not always good." I enjoy watching the patience of certain other craftsmen on RUclips and now I have found yet another one. Keep building! I am getting re-inspired to do some more with my own channel again. Thanks for the inspiration! I too like my timber framing over easy.
This looks amazing. I want to build one too but i have no resources and no tools. My skills with hand tools are not as great, with power tools, i feel like i can cut and connect things more precisely. With wood, i don't just want to make things that works but things that looks good as well. You do an amazing job, Sir. Keep up the good work.
@Saneshen281 Persevere!!! I'm completely self taught (with the odd course thrown in). If my "fire bin" could talk, it would tell the story of MANY failed projects. Any craft that uses hand skills teaches helps to develop hand eye coordination. I started with limited leather working tools and cheap leather, honed these skills before moving into wood working. If you want to lean woodworking, then start where I did making boxes by hand out of scrap plywood. So satisfying and you end up with a stack of useful boxes. I think I might do a short video on that, now I come to think of it. 😁
Andrew, Thank you for the comment. Patience was definitely a large component of this project. Staining one set of 8 drawers took me just on an hour, so staining 8 groups of 8 drawers, with breaks and life getting in the way, meant I spent two days just on that one step. And yes... am chuffed to bits with it. 😀😃🙂
Здравствуйте, случайно увидел ваши ролики, мне очень нравится ваша работа и ваша мастерская, спасибо коллега, я тоже столяр и люблю работать с деревом, привет из России!!! Успехов вам!
Man, I wish I had a grandpa (or parents but hey, that was my lot in life and I’ve done ok)… with whom I could sit out in their garage and learn all this from directly (and use their tools)… but thank you for sharing on YT for us all anyways 🫶 I love crafting and have a double stuffed-to-the-brims craftroom but have just recently discovered the wood crafting channels and now wish hubby and I had bought a house with a garage ‘cos I neeeed everything for this hobby now… (I think I’m also a little bit addicted to buying tools and notions for hobbies… and this one has so many it’s firing up my want monster… but where am I gonna fit a table saw?!!! 😂)
@cazkiwinz4300 Tools are my kryptonite. I was indeed lucky to inherit some of the hand tools I have but if I ever get to buy a 'new' tool, one I haven't had the chance to use before, I never hesitate. It drives Mrs H mad sometimes. Car Boot Sales are a nightmare. I never come home empty handed and more recently it seems every tool I bring home is met with a 'what on earth is that for?'. My old workshop is currently packed up and in storage. Am planning to build (and video) a new workshop at the bottom of the garden. Keep dreaming, keep watching 'craft' videos and never give up on learning new skills. Become good at one craft and you will already be on the road to learning other crafts. There is so much cross over between crafts it's amazing. Developing hand skills is so useful. A good craft to learn with limited space has got to be leatherwork. Give that a try and you'll start to see there is a lot of crossover with woodworking.😁
One idea is to use a track saw, combined with a fold up workbench from one of the big box stores, not quite so expensive as a table saw, and easy to store in a much smaller place. I too am limited for space and one of my solutions vis a vis table saw was to buy a garden container with a hinged top and double doors, big enough to accommodate my contractor saw and bench top drill press. That was about £140.00. from Amazon, not ideal but functional and it allows me to have a couple of power tools that I would not have space for. Happy woodworking however you accomplish it.
Hello love the video after seeing this when I come to view you workshop as you were moving out unfortunately we weren't able to move into it as our investor didn't like the lease hope you got your new workshop up and running
@philallen01 Hi there. Finally moved house end of August. New workshop is a project that's probably going to take 12 months to finish (planning permission etc) but will be making lots of interesting videos in the interim. 😀
@NomadMakes I love a good jig... and this is a well used jig now, as am half way through building a second set of these draws and it is so useful. If a task is repetitive and nequires accuracy then the time thinking about / designing a jig is never wasted. :)
Excellent job Sir! That's exactly what I need to make to store my fasteners. Is there anything you would do differently? You should be proud of that piece!
@rjrotermund Nothing I would change on the design. Just think I could have been a little less clumsy in assembling the dividers and the main carcass. Am so pleased with this, I have a second one under construction as we speak.
Thank you for the kind comment... have far too many... but they are weights with handles... decorative when not in use... always practical... and pennies to buy on ebay when I bought them 10+ years ago... :-)
What do you think about fully or partially assembling the carcass before installing the vertical dividers? Carcass might be built with or without the back, or held by straps and some 90 degree blocks?
Yep. All of those would work. Depends what you have to hand. I don't think there is necessarily a right or wrong way to do it. I know I faffed around bit getting everything together, but it all worked out in the end. 😀
what were your thoughts on using small nails (brads) to build the carcass rather than glue? Do you think it will hold tight, particularly with small nails?
@Birchwoodbldrs I used both pin nails and glue throughout the carcass build. About 19:24 you can see me smearing the glue before I inserted the first end piece. All the internal vertical partitions were glued before I used the pin nails. The small panel pins may well be strong enough to hold everything together, especially with the number I used on the ends, but gluing always adds to the strength with this kind of butt joint. 😀
@tanja.y.33 I wouldn't sell this one as I made it for me. However if I made another as a commission I'd probably have to charge £1200 - £1400. Making 64 draws looks quick on camera but is several days work on that alone!! 😀
@@TraditionalTimes Thank you very much for your prompt reply. Know that there is a lot of work in such a piece and the price is nothing to say about. Very good work. Love and Respect.
@@TraditionalTimes I'll recommend this channel to my grandson! Even though he's only three years old by now, he will love your content! He's with me in my workshop whenever he can. You do a great work! And your patience is woderful! Warmhearted greetings from Germany^^

I agree about the music. And the end result.

@MJLWoodWorks Thanks for the kind words. Just moved house and a new workshop series on the horizon. Start work on that weekend after next. :)
Outstanding work. Love the music. Very relaxing.
Thanks. :)
Gorgeous project and looks like it'll last more than a lifetime, you sir are a Craftsman! Well done!

Thak you... 😀
Superb project, very clearly explained visually. 👍
Thanks... It's my pride and joy in the workshop. :)

@@normansidey5258 That sounds cool! I’ve just started with a rotary tool … so far 😂😂😂
This is such a brilliant piece. Absolutely adore it - fantastic work ❤
Thanks. I've had it just over a year and love it so much am in the middle of building a second one.

Very cool. Thanks for posting.
Glad you enjoyed it
I too want to read about building houses upside down!
@Ishan.patel91 Is there any other way? 😀
Incredible work, thanks for sharing 👍
Thanks. Appreciate the acknowledgement. 😁
very interesting design
It wasn't my first attempt at this... ended up copying the basic structure from a set of library card drawers... 😀
I really liked that jig you used to align the web frame. Thanks for a great video. New sub here. Cheers.
@NomadMakes I love a good jig... and this is a well used jig now, as am half way through building a second set of these draws and it is so useful. If a task is repetitive and nequires accuracy then the time thinking about / designing a jig is never wasted. :)

Awesome job.
Thanks... :)
Exactly how many of those clothes irons do you have? This is the 2nd of your vids I have watched and I thoroughly enjoyed both.
Thank you for the kind comment... have far too many... but they are weights with handles... decorative when not in use... always practical... and pennies to buy on ebay when I bought them 10+ years ago... :-)
nice camera shots.

Nice piece! How much does it weigh?
Empty, it is very easy to lift... maybe 8-10lb (I've not weighed it)... Full... impossible unless you take most of the drawers out... :)
👍👌👍
😀
Another amazing video! I have a couple apothecary videos on my channel you might enjoy... Thanks for sharing.
Will definitely check it out.
