    I love when home owners watch videos like this! Their imaginations go wild and come up with amazing ideas! Imagine a world where custom builds with technology from many decades ago can finally be implemented into the common person's home!
    I hate when I have to crush their dreams when I tell them how much it'll cost. 😭
    I guess it's standard hinges, slides, and handles again. And maybe a bathroom remodel with the money they saved not using Blum hardware...

    Last year when I was between jobs I worked as a cabinet maker for a local kitchen/bathroom/laundry room renovation company.
    We only used Blum hardware and I instantly loved working with the hardware. It works super well and is very high quality.
    We didn't do Tipon adaptors on the inside of the cabinets. We had to drill holes into the 16 mm (~5/8 inch) face frame using a bit which leaves practically a hair's width om material on the outside of the cabinet frame. Even with a jig it was easy to get blowout on either side of the cabinet. So I can understand why you used the adaptors 😂
    Great video! Love those servo opening mechanisms! Can't wait to see how awesome your kitchen looks like!

    Great process of the work so far. Since I have been working with Blum hardwares for more than 4 years niw, my advice should be nor using hinges with springbreaks if you use it with Tip-on's. Just try them with normal springless hinges or turn of the break on the exsisting ones. ;)

    Kudos to you, Johnny, for pushing ahead with anne of all trades levels of energy. This series has been super helpful for me personally so I want to thank you. The way you show the details of your builds is second to none. You're raising the bar for all of us.
    A while back I built out some cabinetry with flat panels in a very similar manner. I spent the majority of the time coercing those large flat panels to stay flat. I consider it a lost battle.
    How'd you get your flat panel doors flat? Any suggestions?

    Not your average DIY workshop and I didn't know I needed servo-drives to open a kitchen cabinet. I'll definitely be installing these if I become paraplegic.

  • @Mitrasmit
    @Mitrasmit 2 года назад +8

    Each servo is about 100 dollars, it seems. Including the frame and drawer slides, I'm guessing this costs 150-200 dollars per drawer for hardware only. And the Aventos servo drive system for the overhead cabinets is 300 dollars each.
    That's pretty steep. But I guess kitchens are expensive, might as well throw it in while you're at it...

    From a business perspective could you do a video on how you keep track of customer orders? Do you use a CRM and print out work tickets, do you just track them on a white board, use a notebook? I’m thinking a printed work ticket on a clipboard hanging in the wall for each custom build order might be the way to go. But do I need a CRM behind it to invoice, email, etc?

  • @glenncanning8189
    @glenncanning8189 2 года назад +8

    Great video and I love the results. I do have to say, though, that this hardware system treads dangerously close to "improving to failure" territory- at least for me. Why? Three reasons.
    One, it's quite simple to achieve the "no handles/hardware" look on kitchen cabinets already, without the addition of (what I assume is) far more expensive hardware than standard. Two, anytime you introduce something electronic, especially in heavy-use applications such as this, there's always the possibility of malfunction and/or power loss, whereas normal cabinet hardware will work indefinitely. (I understand that these hinges & slides will work regardless of the motors being operational, but without the touch-activated feature, you're no better off than if you'd just used standard hardware.) Third, outside of the "wow, neat!" factor, what additional benefit does a system like this bring you? It's not faster than regular hardware, nor is it easier or more intuitive.
    I don't mean to rain on anyone's parade here, and I apologize if that's the impression I'm giving- again, I really did enjoy the video. But I just see this as analogous to voice-activated doors in old sci-fi movies; something that dazzles you the first time you see it, but in actual usage would be far less appealing & efficient than simply using a doorknob. This hardware is undoubtedly impressive, I only question it's ultimate utility.

  • @RadicalRootsProject
    @RadicalRootsProject 2 года назад +2

    I mistakenly used soft close Blum hinges for ages with that tip on hardware. Try your same set up with Blum's "free swing" hinges and the tip on takes on an entirely different life. They open fully instead of just a couple inches.

  • @Mike-In-O-Town
    @Mike-In-O-Town 2 года назад +1

    What happens with those handy dandy electronic hinges when the power is out? I live in Florida, and at times in the summer, it seems the power is off as much as its on due to the weather. I do love the top lifting hinged doors though.

  • @bmgeyer
    @bmgeyer 2 года назад +2

    Johnny - great work on the cabinets and on the "not-so-tiny" tiny house build. I appreciate your cost break downs and your usual honesty concerning when you pay for things and when they are "gifted" to you by the supplier or the manufacture. I feel that some of the shine came off your honesty with this video. I do not begrudge you the CNC, pro table saw, large work area, or the myriad of other tools you have on hand (and you do a great job of suggesting other ways to accomplish the same thing, and you're honest that it will take longer and cost in time). BUT the jigs (the two from Blum and the edging one from Rockler) cut production time significantly and would almost double your stated cost of the build. You repeatedly comment about how invaluable they are but the cost is omitted from the discussion. Similarly, I hear you hedging about how elite the servo pieces of the Blum hardware is, but the roughly $200 per opener is completely glazed over. A quick "what you could pay" screen shot (what you are already doing) and a "price as built" (which would include MSRP for the jigs and complete hardware) would go along way to helping the average schlub (me) understand the true cost of building your own kitchen. You could bury the sheets somewhere on your website (link on video) to appease the folks paying the bills. Thanks for listening.

    Can you do real carpentry work? The c&c machine is cheating. You should have robots build it for you to. they already are doing most of the work. Most diy people are not going to be able to buy hardware that cost that much. Your videos are good. except for the fact that most average people are not going to have half or a quarter of the high end tools you do. so it's hard to relate.
