How to Build a Tool Storage Cabinet | This Old House

When someone asks you to "make them something" most folks have no idea of the dozens of decisions, measurements, set up time that's actually involved.
Not only is building something a physical act but tons of thought and problem solving is involved.
GREAT video, good to show a bit of the detail involved. 👍👍
Wish customer's only knew and could read this comment, so true my friend!!
All this work of watching you guys work has caused me great stress so I am now headed to the local bar!
Fontaine?!
ahaha thx for the humanity.
Tommy's son is a great helper.
I known these guys know exactly what they're doing they've been doing it for a long time Tommy's awesome! If I trust anybody to build something or work on my house it would definitely be these guys.
Thank you guys for making this video, I really need a cabinet like this one maybe even two.......A big thumbs-up!
Great ideas from your project! Thank you 🇺🇸
1:46 and that’s why you don’t stand directly behind the blade. Those little off-cuts can do some damage when they shoot back like that. Thanks for showing proper table saw technique!
POCKET HOLE JIG FOR THE WIN! 🤠👍
Great ideas and explanation. Thank you
Anyone else see the kickback at 1:47 ?
Was gonna comment then I saw your response.
Thats happened to anyone who has cut a rabbet.
Yep! Wanted to see what it hit lol
Wonder if Kevin's toolbelt is old and wore from use or just a hand me down from tom.
Good job, thank you for sharing !!
Great weekend project guys!
I think you're amazing, I love what's happening here
I think YOU'RE amazing.
I really like this, I mean really...
Would be very cool to see Kevin take the lead on a build and take control..
At 1:02 witness the magic, perfectly straight line in freehand
Great shop storage cabinet!
Man this guy is good
Very interesting tool cabinet
I mean since it justs a garage cabinet, couldn't I use the pocket hole jig to fasten the face frame? instead of the finger joint method?
I do not see why not. Since the door will get some abuse, I would also use glue to go along with the pocket screws, but that's just me.
Tom probably didnt want to see the pocket holes, so he chose a different joining method.
Great idea
Nice video. Great and helpful project!
Great video 🙏👍
excellent
Buy stock cabinet from HD. Customize if necessary.
Great vid thank you.
thanks
Awesome
Great Video... Keep em coming
I would love to make this for my tools but can't mount it on my basement walls because of stone walls
I WISH I HAD THIS KNOWLEDGE
anyone saw the light kickback? 1:46
I saw that offcut of plywood kick right back down the table at close to 1:46. Luckily, it was moving slowly.
Agreed. I mean, he's the pro so I'm sure he was anticipating it (you can see his body position), but for the rest of us it would have been safer to have the offcut be on the waste side of the blade.
+DesolationRobot master or not that's not how you do a two cut rabbet. It's face cut first, then the vertical with the off-cut to the outside of the blade. Otherwise the off-cut becomes a projectile. It came out slowly this time but it doesn't always and just because he's positioned himself out of the way doesn't mean the guy working behind you will be. I'm surprised to see Tommy make a mistake like that usually his techniques are above reproach.
Technique was fine. I don't think anyone was in danger of a slow moving strip of waste. Dado blade + sacrificial fence would make it a one-pass operation but require more setup time.
The technique is not "fine". You NEVER make a cut that ends with a loose off cut trapped between the blade and the fence. Period. You'll get away with it one or ten or even 99 times out of 100 but eventually that off cut will come out of there like a javelin (ask me how I know). Kickbacks can reach speeds in excess of 100mph which is more than enough to cause injury.
Patrick, That's a scrap wood ejector system....
Love your vids! ))
How do you guys plan to hang this on the wall, please?
I wanna know if you can get the plans for this tool storage
This turned out amazing as always. I spent an afternoon recently making my own cabinet, but mine is made entirely out of drywall screws and whatever I found in my moldy scrap wood pile. As you can imagine, mine doesn't look to good, but it's solid.
cool!
2:54 what’s soooooo funny?!
Must be nice to have every tool, energy resource, and fastener at your disposal to make it seem easy. Renting tools doesn't always go perfectly.
I noticed when you cut the dado on the table saw the strip kicked back which can be dangerous. Would it not be better to use a stop block so the left over strip dosn't get bound up on the blade?
Notice that he was not standing in line with the blade. That piece is fairly harmless. If you're worried about kickback doing the rabbet you could use a sacrificial fence and dado stack to remove all of the material at once. Otherwise, just don't stand in the way of it.
I wish they provided the build sheet.
Damnit, I know you guys consider a table saw a must --but I ain't got one! So! It's always a bummer when that's the featured tool to use. I've built a number of your projects without a table saw and just through workarounds discovered many different methods that work. It would be great, for me, if you lose the table saw and just do it with circular saws and hand or other power tools. I love the program nonetheless so don't take this as a knock --just a poor sucker without a quality table saw! Lol
fk tables saws you're working with less which is more awesome and practical. I aspire to be a practical minimalist.
how come you dont dado the center shelf ????
It isn't supporting the weight of tools. However. I would probably run some dados.
datguy807: you could, but it would take away from the strength of the top and bottom panels.
Although you could only go in 1/8" just to keep in place. Not rocket science, but if that cabinet was going to the moon, dado's are required because there is less air up there.
New cabinet was cheaper than a table saw - done
Nails...
Plans for this
I came down here to the comments to mention the kick back, but I guess everyone else saw it too.
So i first need to buy a big table saw.☺
bombshelter strong
who saw the kick back at around 1:49
I didn't got how to align doors accurately when using piano hinges. :(
Everyone in the comments is a woodworking professional. :|
can you go to florida and help me with starting up my workshop just started woodworking
Tommy's little helper looks like Archie Andrews of comic book fame. Isn't that cute
hahahaha! So true.
That wasn't kick back, if you have ever experienced kick back the piece of wood will fly back like it was shot out of a cannon.
The remainder of the board is thrown back by the blade at 1:46. tsk tsk
It felt good to see you cut that rabbit without a dozen jigs an random noveltys like people nowdays like to use.
Just cut the fucking wood. People these days can't seem to just cut a piece of wood without 100 dollars worth of extra bullshit.
A few suggestions. 1. Don't use a tape measure when your table saw fence has a precision scale on it. 2. On the doors insert the rails into one stile and slide the panel in. If you do it like Tom did you're just forcing all of the glue from the cope and stick joint as you fight the clamp they put on. Much easier to do this on a bench rather than the floor. For pine doors a 3/8" or 1/2" cope and stick joint is really weak too, especially in 3/4" thick material. I have seen many a doors built like this fracture the sticking in time.
DON'T BELIEVE THEY WERE ASKING FOR YOUR "PROFESSIONAL" OPINION
jer bo don't believe I was asking for yours either
briancnc you need the advice though
always measure off the blade, i have never had the pleasure of using a table saw with an accurate fence scale.
Never ever have I used a scale. Always a tape. Never had a problem.
Is it just me, or does Kevin come across as a guy that doesn't necessarily know which end of the screwdriver goes into the screw?
Meantime at 3:03 Kevin's off in the back inspecting boards he's cut. Because he know's nothing.
Jerry White You are unnecessarily unkind. Grow up.
I wonder if Tom Silva has a super car, if so what type?
Stacey Peter What??
Must be nice to be able to afford all those expensive tools etc. I have to use what I can afford to buy plus some SKILL. still l ,m happy .
Most of the tools used are common and rather inexpensive. The cabinet saw certainly is a cost but you can do everything he did in this video with a cheap contractors saw. Invest in used woodworking tools and you can setup shop with very little money too.
I recently purchased a table saw for $30, a router for $40 and a mitre saw for $40. All in great shape, good brands. If you know where to look and what to look for you can set up a wood shop from second hand tools for under $150...
If you are happy, why are you complaining about their tools? Seriously, get an education (art appreciation doesn't count) and get a better job.
Is it me but that kevin dude is so annoying...
Aleks M it’s you
Nah he is annoying... he is like a third wheel... he buts in and takes away the attention from the people who know what there doing .
Wow, its easy when you have the right tools and the cash to afford them. This is not for the average man on a working budget with limited tools.
All of this can be done with a hand saw, hammer, chisel, drill, and screwdriver. You don't even need the pocket hole jig if you substitute face screws. Power tools save you time. They do not grant you extra abilities.
You do not need fancy power tools for that. You can just use hand tools. It will just take you more time.
Furthermore some stores will cut you large sheets plywood if you ask.
Since I love the older tools that are American made and will hold up. I buy most of my tools off of craigslist.
Not true tbh, you can definitely do all of this by hand. How do you think they did stuff in the old days without power tools?
You can put together a reasonably decent shop for $2500. Start small then add tools over time.
You just shot that rabbet, bad technique!
Peg board sucks.
Some risky sawing. Plywood cabinet is no brain surgery.
Handles are crooked. Just saying.
I`m in the retirement stage of my life. I do a bit of cabinetry, produce musical instruments, and carry out woodturning in my small shop. I have a shelf loaded with woodworking textbooks - but I discovered this woodworking book, “pepe amazing plan” (Google it). The comprehensiveness of this book is amazing. Each and every subject matter of the guide is covered perfectly.
Amazing, no woodworking involved! Boo!
Of all wood working book I`ve read, this “pepe amazing plan” (Google it) is the greatest. My woodworking instructor even proposes his learners to read the book. I am impressed how authors managed to write very comprehensive topics. I am astonished by the material and didn`t have a tough time following the lessons.
