I don’t think I have ever built a bigger project without some hiccups that’s what definitely teaches us to adapt and overcome. It’s absolutely beautiful. You did a very nice job!
Thanks!
I’ve just watched two of your videos and I think I’ve learned more great little tips and tricks from you than I have in 10 hours of other videos. I love your method of breaking things down and your clear and concise communication. And you don’t shy away from showing us your mistakes and how you fix them (I know I always have plenty of those 😂). Thanks so much!
The mark of an experienced woodworker is in addressing and hiding mistakes....
Very true, but sometimes I would really like to be better at not making those mistakes!
As a computer programmer, I have long known to continue breaking down large problems into smaller manageable tasks and steps. Yet I failed to apply this to my woodworking, so I very often limited myself to smaller projects where I could hold the entire task in my mind. I have started analyzing and planning wood projects as I do programming projects, and now have complete confidence in taking on bigger projects. With every step written down, I always know what to do next, and can schedule subtasks as I have the time or materials ready.
Great, glad that process is working out for you!
I made a small step stool it took me 3 months to complete. When I can’t see the picture in my head I wanted I start to lose interest
@@nicholaslopez8830 When it gets too complicated to visualize in my head, I start with drawing by hand. When that gets too complicated, I draw it in my computer with Sketchup.
@@nicholaslopez8830 I know that feeling very well
@@biscuittreewoodworks do you have a sketchup of this project, by any chance? I'm going to try to build one like this as my first furniture piece. (I've done a few plywood cabinets, but nothing from wood yet.) I really like the simple but elegant feel of this, and after looking at many dozens of other, similar designs on Google ("Shaker dresser"), this one is still my favorite.
Thank you, in any case.
Chalk and playing cards. Those are the real tricks!

Your teaching style made this vid along with strong attention to detail and point outs. As a retired toolmaker I can reflect, one thing I'd like to add. . .If your having a BAD day remember safety first. . . .walk away . . .shit happens, and having it happen around machinery well lets say it goes south fast. Stay safe . . . .looking forward I have subscribed . . . I'm a fan
I did tool and die work many years ago before I went into engineering. You are absolutely right! Not paying full attention when working around machinery can go bad VERY quickly!
Sometimes I read a few...2 to 5 comments before watching videos as I just did now.the reason is if there are good solid comments about your vid and the comments about good strong content then I will watch the video with anticipation.well brother I'm about to check it out,I will quick comment when video is over .be safe and know that God loves us all and Jesus is the only way!!!
@@biscuittreewoodworksyou have a very cool and hip name for your company brother.....lol......can I ask how you came up with the name???
@@NicholasMcleod-zp9mdit’s a long story and more than I can type out and express here. I might do a video on it one day. Hope you enjoy the video!
Terrific - a compilation of shop gems, presented in a way that's entertaining but without any BS. Nicely done!
Thanks! Glad you found it helpful!
That’s a cracking piece of furniture pal ✊
Thanks!
Remember -- epoxy systems like the West system have different hardener options so you can use a slower hardening / longer work time for more complex assembly jobs
True, and I was going to use the slow set hardener, but unfortunately I found out it had gone bad when I was ready to do this glue up so I had to settle for the regular hardener.
I watched your entire video from start to finish. Learned a lot. Admired your skills as a woodworker and as a video producer. As I began to feel worthless as a human being I remembered your title that said it took years to learn your skills. That gave me hope as a beginner woodworker. Thank you!
Yes, it takes a long time to learn this on your own! That's why I put a lot of these things into my videos to help newer woodworkers learn it faster and start to make better projects!
I throughly enjoyed watching this video. Your sense of design is great. Love the finish you applied. My husband was a woodworker and we often watched woodworking instruction- starting with Bob Villa back in the day of television and PBS. You are a fantastic teacher and I rate you with the best. Your voice is calm, your editing skills are great, overall , from a non- woodworking observer- you knocked this video ‘out of the park!
That is awesome! Thank you!
When using caul clamps or just plain cauls, I _always_ put nonstick (paper that will not stick to glue) to prevent the cauls or clamps from sticking to the wood panel (or whatever). This is a big time saver: no messy dried glue on my cauls / clamps to clean. Great video...
I use wax on my clamps, but box tape or wax paper work great as well!
I really enjoyed watching this video. I love woodworking and recently purchased a saw mill and now have access to a ton of hard woods but lack the real skill to build things. I think videos like this one are going to be a game changer for me. Thank you for putting it together...lol
That is awesome! I'm glad to hear it's helping!
Nothing short of "AMAZING"!!! Really beautiful piece and the tips and instructions are off the chart!
Thanks so much!
Fine job, great build. Really appreciate you taking your time to share your experience.
No problem 👍 Thanks for watching!
I have been in woodworking for 68 years, and found a couple of tips that was new to me. One was the use of a spoke shave. I guess another tool is in order!
Glad I introduced you to something new! Spokeshaves are awesome! They can be a little finicky until you get the feel for it. You also need to consider whether you need a concave, convex, or flat bottom, or just get all three!
@@biscuittreewoodworks I have only seen those used in oldschool boat building. Is that where you got this idea from by any chance?
@@wardwagar863 No, spokeshaves are pretty common in hand tool woodworking for finessing curves.
@@biscuittreewoodworks thank you for that information.
I would say that it looks like it is professionally made, but it looks wayyy better than that.
Thank you!
Truly a video full of knowledge, tips and entertainment. Thank you
Glad you enjoyed it!
3:18 😂Working on a project now and realized my clamps are not long enough. Clamp the clamps together- brilliant!
Thanks! Glad that helps!
Awesome work
Thank you!
Very nice, great job
Thank you very much!
he's not kidding. after tons of frustration with most power tools i absolutely LOVE the feeling and accuracy of planes and chisels to clean up the rough work
Power tools are nice, but hand tools are really great to work with!
Great work! You have a lot of nice tools and equipment. Really loved the glue trick!
Thanks! It has taken many years to get what I have and I’m still planning upgrades for the future!
Fantastic video mate! I learned more here in one video than the whole week watching RUclips. 😅
Glad you enjoyed it!
Agreed. I also appreciate including the inescapable mistakes because we all face them and it's incredibly helpful to see how others fix them.
Very informative. Nice! Thumbs up!
Glad you liked it!
That came out so nice. Thank you for all the tips.
Thanks for watching!
Great build!

Glad to hear it!
Excellent! This looks amazing.
Thank you!
Awesome video John. Some great information here. Especially the breaking down large complicated pieces into smaller easier to accomplish tasks. Appreciate all the great tips. Ohhh and the finished piece was amazing as well. Thank for sharing. Hope you have a great day!
Thank you, and thanks for watching!
Although I have over 50 years wood working - this was a great video to watch. We all need a reminder of the simple things - (that make the end great) - from time to time!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Awesome video. You're a great instructor/teacher. I have learned so much from you. Please, keep those videos coming.
I appreciate that! More to come very soon!
Thank you for all your time and effort. 1in7
👍
good job man,thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
Nice piece. Thanks for the tips! Cheers 🍻
Thanks!
Loved it. Great stuff.
Much appreciated!
Nice content! Only tip is, in certain applications, where weight might be an issue, load the drawer's with the anticipated weight prior to attaching the fronts. Works well for purpose built cabinets..
Good tip! Especially with cheaper slides that tend to flex with weight. These are pretty strong and they also have a lot of adjustment for fine tuning later.
@@biscuittreewoodworks I hate the tuning. I use those cards on shop drawers! I guess I have issues! . Lol
Beautiful piece, nice work
Thank you very much!
Outstanding video and great tips that will bring the project to the next level. Thanks and subscribed!
Awesome, thank you!
Very good work

Beautiful job
Thank you!
Very nice piece.
Thank you!
Awesome build my guy
Thank you!
I love watching woodworkers work and seeing all the little differences in the way things are done. Having been a professional woodworker in my early years at which time I did a lot of dressers, apparently the techniques have changed quite a bit. One technique that we used on our early american dressers was to use hide glue, giving us more time to do a careful assembly. I don't remember a time when we'd not check for square in all directions and adjust clamps clamps to make sure that the "box" was perfectly square. But I don't see any videos showing this finishing technique. How do you make sure? Or is the technique still used but not shown?
I did check my drawer boxes to ensure they are square once I put the clamps on and before the glue dried. It just might not have made it into the video. The great thing about using dovetails, especially with a jig like this, is the joint makes the boxes pretty much self squaring. If the joints are tight, it has not option but to be perfectly square.
I also don't use hide glue, but will use epoxy if I need more time to work than I get with regular wood glue.
Great tip with the clamp extension. Thanks. Awesome video.
Thanks!
Great build! Hope all is well
Thanks!
The best video. 💪🏻
Glad you liked it!
@@biscuittreewoodworks so much so that I want to model my kitchen island after this design. Plus, I have tool envy!
Really enjoyed the video. I’ve been woodworking for over 45 years and I’ve made more mistakes than I’ve had dinners. And I eat a lot of dinners.
As in most things, taste is personal whilst skill is universal. So, my taste is no better or worse, just different. I don’t like machine dovetails because they look..machined. In fact, there is no need to use dovetails at all. Modern glues mean that the mechanical advantage of a dovetail just isn’t needed any more. To jazz the boxes up, you can drill and insert brass pins or contrasting timber or even through dominos (not fond of that look though).
I agree about hard wax oils. I would strongly recommend Natura Onecoat HWO. The Wood Whisperer recently reviewed all 2 pack HWO and his overall “winner” was Natura Onecoat. It’s cheaper per can than Rubio; I find it goes further and it seems to cure faster.
One tip is not to use an applicator pad or cloth. Whilst all the oil that soaks into the pad or rag means extra profit for the makers, it means waste to you and me. I use a plastic spreader (which obviously soaks up nothing) to cover the piece with a pad or rage only for small areas. Then let it soak in. Wipe off any excess and then you have the option of buffing with that white pad. I believe that buffing brings the wax element of hard wax oil into play and you can get a higher sheen. These one coat products really are one coat. A second coat is, again, good for the maker but the oil part of hard wax oil will not penetrate (as it was saturated by the first coat). So, if you want a higher sheen, paste wax is easy, quick and cheaper.
Thanks for the feedback and tips!
I'm not a big fan of machine cut dovetails, but the jig I have has a lot of variability to make them look less machine made. I'd prefer hand cut, but that was just going to take too long on this project.
I would like to try out the Natura HWO, but I need to finish my can of Rubio first. I've had it for a while and bought it before I even heard of Natura.
@@biscuittreewoodworks yes, I’ve got the same jig. Never used in anger. Even the router lock joint has so much glue area that I’ve never had one fail - I don’t think they ever will especially if you put in that dowel of metal or wood.
I wish these glues were around when I started. It was a glue pot of bones and skin. Plus homemade abrasive made of dried dogfish ( a small shark like fish that used to be common around the UK).
Great job.. great video.
Thank you!
Thank You for sharing!
Welcome!
Nice work. Looks great.
Thanks!
Great video. Very informative. I liked the curve sander block. I have not seen that before
Thanks! Glad you liked it!
Nice job!
Thanks!
Wow amazing thank you so much for the video you are truly amazing
Thank you!
I love your work and your down-to-earth style. Your practical tips are always super helpful, thank you!
I restore antique furniture. When determining whether or not a piece can be repaired, reversible glue joints (made with hide glue) are often the deciding factor. Your beautiful work is going to mean a lot to your kids & grandkids. If way down the road they want to repair or restore a piece to its original glory, those epoxy joints are going to limit the possibilities. And the quality of your work IS going to last generations, I guarantee it.
NOTHING is more stressful than a hot hide-glue clamp up, I totally get it. But I would love to see you teach the world how to do them.
Thanks again for all your excellent content - you seem like a lovely person.
Thank you and I'm really glad you like the videos! I've never actually worked with hot hide glue, that's something I'll have to dive into one day. Hopefully not literally "dive into", but I wouldn't mind trying it out on a project or two!
It's a pain for sure! I know your methodical approach will be the very thing.
@@biscuittreewoodworks On the plus side of hide glue is the open time.
Beautiful work! Great teaching as well. Great job!
Thanks! That's great to hear!
Nice job and smart tips. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Gorgeous dresser, nice video and I learned a few things... Thanks so much for sharing that.
Thanks! Glad it was helpful!
Beautifully done! This chest will last for years unlike most of the rubbish you can buy. Really enjoyed watching you work and I wish I had a workshop as well kitted out as yours.
Thank you! It has taken a long time to get where I’m at with the shop and still a lot I’d like to change!
Very nice. Love your voice over and explanation of everything that you did. I am a newbie at woodworking and just trying to get my feet wet and I love videos like this to help me along the way.
Thanks! Glad it was helpful!
Really like your method to install the drawer fronts. Thanks for sharing the great content!
Thanks for watching!
subbed. that was fantastic. and lots of great tipsin there. i will absolutely be using the floor buffer trick
Awesome, thank you!
thank you
You're welcome!
Great video, really liked this one. Your methodical but relaxed approach is great. This is all the therapy I need!
Thank you!
Amazing learning vid .. and that I did Ty for sharing . I only hope the clothes going in this beautiful dresser are folded neatly,for respect 😊.👍😇🇺🇸
I hope so too, but since it’s for my daughter they will most likely be thrown in random drawers or just piled on top of it!
Great job my friend! I learned something and that is what counts 😀
Thank you, that’s great to hear!
Great video! I inspire to become as talented as you one day
You can do it! Just take it one step at a time!
Very well done ! You're videos have come a long way from the first ones I stumbled upon a year or two ago.
Thank you! Trying to get a little better with each one!
Great video. I love the design and execution. I wish you continued success.
