There are three categories within this concept: transparent, translucent and opaque. Transparent means clear. Light goes through it and you can see clearly through it. Translucent means means light goes through it but you can't see clearly through it. Opaque means light does not go through it. The glass he has here is translucent.
This is a valuable addition to my woodwork collection ruclips.net/user/postUgkxbnOKZBE4evMO5V2vroHeCjq6d_MV6wJO I still will rate this woodwork plan as the best in my reference library. It always seem to stand out from the rest whenever you go through the library. This is a masterpiece.
True, if I didn’t grow up with it, I wouldn’t want to use it. But as others said, it’s not an issue after you get accustomed to it (unless you are bad at fractions). And, I find the larger size of units like Inch or Foot to be more convenient sometimes.
@10:50 when you are checking for square, how would you go about correcting it if it was out of square? Would you reposition the clamps and then clamp another from corner to corner on the long angle or is there a better way? Thanks.
the right way to do this is to build your door oversized 1/16 in length and width, the final step is called "lipping" which is essentially just sizing the door. you can use a big edge sander, i use a shaper personally, or even the table saw... the point is the extra 1/16 can be removed strategically if you find your doors not quite square.. so you can push the a side a little harder on the edge sander and leave the opposing corner alone and this will effectively square up the door... if your joinery is square and your rails and stiles are the exact same length its actually kind of difficult to assemble a cope and stick door out of square
When I have had to build doors, I will add a clamp perpendicular to the first two clamps and tighten it until the door frame is square. It rarely takes much pressure as long as I am careful with the first two clamps and have square crosscuts on the rails.
I just found your site. Love love love your videos. Love the dry sense of humor. The only issue is your videos are addictive and now I am binge watching them. Thank you for all the great tips and how to videos.
An excellent (and typically humorous) video. It is incredibly informative, especially with all the links posted below. My project is somewhat complicated by using beveled glass panes, but the adjustments are easy enough. Thanks so much.
More into metal work and turning wrenches, however I used your videos to make the wife a couple cabinet doors in the kitchen. Man I'm hooked, I think I've just found a new hobby that will hopefully lead to some extra$ in a couple years.
I am an absolute novice at woodworking in general and cabinet making in particular so I really appreciate your guidance and advice. I am just following you - one step at a time. Thanks again!
I am retired and still miss woodworking. If I were in bussiness now I would try to hire you! Your attention to detail earns my respect. I am not crazy about using clips to hold the pane of glass but there is nothing wrong with clips. I am kind of like you a little particular. LOL!
I heard you on Steve Ramsey's talk show talking how some folks have told you to stop the running. They are WRONG, I chuckle everytime I see you make your entrance. Keep it up brother. .
Followed pretty much what you were doing. I had to step it up a level. Customer wanted a profile cut on the inside edge like a raised panel door. Needed to make some methods changes but instead of glass, we were installing mirrors. Thus it's a medicine cabinet. Used the same hinges as you. It turned out ok. This was my first time making this style door also. Just worked my way through it and zing...bang.....boom. Doors are done. Lol
Hey, I watch your videos for entertainment and educational reasons, you do an excellent job of demonstrating and explaining your craft, you are very talented, thank you , keep up the excellent work
Ur awesome. Turned out very unique and beautiful. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work my friend. Can't wait to see ur next videos. Keep making. God Bless.
Great video. I've wanted to do cabinet doors with glass but was hesitant, you made it look easier than I thought it might be, now I'm gonna give it a go. Keep it up!
As always, awesome video and presentation. The only thing I enjoy more than watching your videos is actually making things... well, my wife, dog ...just in case my wife or dog read this. One question, the last time I made doors with glass panels, I used the dado method with little rubber balls to hold them in place. I guess the advantage to your way is if the glass breaks, it's easy to replace. Any thoughts on one over the other? Thanks
We love your videos. Thanks for the instruction and entertainment, seriously, can't stand dry woodworking videos. I am doing a glass door this weekend for a craft station for my wife, so timing is of your drop is perfect. I wasn't sure how to to put the frame together. I've done floating panel and they came out good. Question, why use the handheld router and not the router table? Thanks.
Great video. Thanks for letting me know that dowel jigs exist. I would prefer this method over using a pocket-hole jig. Looks better, and this technique was used by early furniture makers, probably going back to medieval times. Ahhhh, those were the days.
That kid looks as if to say "I have no clue of which you speak father" Absolutely love your videos and I am taking tips from you on my woodworking projects. Keep up the good work.
Nicely done, I like your process. I have some reeded glass doors in my kitchen, in cabinets I built about 14 years ago. I had the local glass shop install the glass, and they gently glued it in with some clear goop of some kind. Clips might have been nice, but so far so good. BTW, I have built many cabinet doors either with tongue and groove, or with biscuits. Both ways worked just fine. A domino joiner would be great in a production shop, though.
You are my go to person when looking for a "How to..." demonstration. Which Domino do you suggest if you are only buying one to start with? I dont know the model numbers but I know there's a small and a large. I'm a beginner as far as my business goes but already see the time loss not having certain tools. Not a fan of Festool prices but the Domino is a game changer both for speed and quality of your build.
I have always done my cabinet doors at 2 inch. I use a 2 inch faceframe, and a 3 inch stile where its between 2 doors. This is specifically with a 1/2 overlay, once its all together, it gives me a 2 inch reveal everywhere.
Strange, but good! Thanks for the lesson! I'm not going to mass produce my cabinets for my one house, but I do like the all your jigs and the set up! Though, one set of cabinets will make it feel like mass production!😊Do you have one where you show how I can install mullions?
Exactly what I needed! Making a bed for my DD and wanted the front of her bed to have plexiglass windows she can see through to watch movies, and this is just the way I want to do it!!
This is exactly what I was looking for to build a set of faux doors above my cooktop and across the opening above my sink, to match the doors I'm making for the rest of the kitchen. Tx! The link to the glass vendor was also super helpful... they provide samples you can get for pretty low cost.
Thanks for making and sharing. I am seriously considering making my kitchen cabinets. Will be frame less cabinets. I live in a condo, so don't have space for too many tools or the space. I do have the Domino 500. I would love to use plywood, but the cost is rather high and I can't handle 4x8 sheets either. I want to customize the config. like having full extension pullout trays. Will be using system32.
Great video as always. Thank you for explaining everything in a step by step way and not skipping anything. Educational and entertaining at the same time.
With my dowel jig, I line up the edge of the jig with the edge of the board and it comes out perfect with no measuring needed. That would speed up the doweling method a bit. It is still slower than the domino, but I don't have over a grand for a Festool!
Thanks for this video. I'm searching for hacks to make shaker cabinets. Since I don't have a router to make a groove for the glass to sit in, can just I use glass metal retainer clips on the sides and bottom on the inside of the door?
I know this is probably heresy but have you ever thought about using a corner chisel that you slide in tap and voila you have a square corner. I really do enjoy your videos very much and look for the next one when I finish the current. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
nice, i may use this for a set of built ins i am working on but have not done doors yet (flanking a fireplace), have young kids so might use plexiglass instead then swap for real glass when they are older.
That's so perfect, I have been following for you for couple of months now but this my comment. I really love your works and indeed you're my mentor 👍👍💯❤️I look up to you and I really want to do good like you ♥️👍💯
Thanks for video. I want to make cabinet doors. I don't have have a jointer or planner. Can I use Poplar or maple S4S boards for rails and styles? Don't know if they are straight and flat enough for doors ?
You make fantastic videos on woodworking. Some ideas are new to this self taught woodworker, a lot Of my techniques I learned on my own. It is very reassuring to see you, a very talented woodworker, use some of the same ideas in you work. It’s kind of nice to know your not the only loose screw, there are other like-thinkers out there. How did you come up with “Bourbon Moth”? Again, excellent videos. From Missouri
Hey Jason. Just found your site. Great tutorials and helpful tips and designs! I share your love of woodworking and a fine whisky. Was wondering . . . any interest in combining your two passions and coming up with a liquor cabinet design and video? I'm sure I wouldn't be the only one interested in seeing what you create and in purchasing your plan. Thanks for all your super ideas so far.
Thankyou for this vid! I have solid cabinet doors that i want to convert to glass centers. Your video helped a bunch! Now, if only you could bring in some warmer weather si I can paint..that would be nice!
Yo my dude. This is a great way to make simple shaker doors. Anyone can watch this and be able to build them. I like the simplicity of how you teach. Most of the guys on here make it complex. I am a cabinet maker. I love to learn different techniques. Mostly we 45 the corners to avoid end grain but if they are being painted I guess that wont matter. Keep it up bro, I look forward to the videos. 🔥🔥
I love your sense of humor dude! I'm glad that I have stumbled across your woodworking videos. I appreciate your ability to describe the process of your projects, step by step; in a comedic, yet respectful vibe that bears admirable traits. I thank you
Very instructional. I plan to use this method for stained glass panels I made for a kitchen. Question: what is the difference between the use of a biscuit joiner and the domino joiner on the door frames?
Can you show how to make cabinet doors using common tools that weekend DIYers have (small table saw, miter saw, drills (not pocket screw jig, etc) no sketchup software). Thank you!
Nice work and very entertaining as well. Question... I was always told to joint the face first, then the edge. You just a rebel or is there a reason you did edge first?

This neophyte woodworker has learned so much watching these videos. Thank you for doing these, Jason.
I love your work man. And when i see you doing math with inches and whateverth of a quarter of an inch im so glad we have mm
Totally agree..inches one sixteenth.. what the... mm please any day of the week
I’ve used both. And there’s no difference once you’re accustomed to it.
I have used both and metric makes adding and subtracting simpler for me. But use what you like best as long as you're making things it's all good.
True, if I didn’t grow up with it, I wouldn’t want to use it. But as others said, it’s not an issue after you get accustomed to it (unless you are bad at fractions). And, I find the larger size of units like Inch or Foot to be more convenient sometimes.
I've grown up using American and switched to Metric a few years ago. So much easier to work with and my projects end up having better quality.
I love projects that include the "when my kids break them" thought process. This is my life. :)

My nephew has the same little garbage truck and he loves it so much!
So many nuggets of knowledge! Where did you learn woodworking?
I’ve never had very good luck getting everything to line up using the Dowling jig!
Bro, you put so much details into your work. It's awesome
Are you going to do a video on painting them? I'd love to see how to get smooth factory-like finishes on these :)
Yes 👍🏻
Ur awesome. Turned out very unique and beautiful. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work my friend. Can't wait to see ur next videos. Keep making. God Bless.
You are an excellent teacher. All The Best
Not only is he a good carpenter but he is also very funny.
Using the other door frame to make square corners on the rebate is a great one. Thank you for sharing.
Great video. I like the idea to use one of the other doors to guide the chisel. It should save a lot of time and headaches.
Great video. I've wanted to do cabinet doors with glass but was hesitant, you made it look easier than I thought it might be, now I'm gonna give it a go. Keep it up!

You are great my man. Quick question can I add muntin bars ?
6:08 do you have a method to keep it straight which ones are parts and which ones are pieces so you don’t get confused?
The dowel frame is the one with the numbers instead of the lines. Cash or check is fine.
You should include links to all of your social media int the video descrip as well. Great vid.

Just curious, why do you joint the edge of your boards first? I always joint the face first
I was thinking the same thing.. if you do edges first. they will not be perpendicular to the jointed face.
Wouldn’t you joint the edge first to have a straight edge to joint the face?
you could also take a forstner bit with the same diameter and drill out the corners to the same depth. this might not look as clean but is faster.
This was great. When you size doors for cabinets, how much of a gap do you leave between the doors?
Thanks for the video this is definitely going to come in handy for my wife's quilt cabinet I'm planning
Very instructional. I plan to use this method for stained glass panels I made for a kitchen.
Question: what is the difference between the use of a biscuit joiner and the domino joiner on the door frames?
Great video! I plan to use this for an upcoming cabinet build. Good balance of entertainment and content.
Lovely...I like how u fit the glass ..Good job 👌
Can you show how to make cabinet doors using common tools that weekend DIYers have (small table saw, miter saw, drills (not pocket screw jig, etc) no sketchup software). Thank you!
