So wonderful to see the process from start to finish. Great job dudes!

[@MaydaysCustomWoodworks]

Very well done. This was a strange video for me to watch... I had been a part time self employed pro woodworker for 8 years and now a full time woodworker for 2 years. I build my cabinets and doors and run my shop very much like you guys do but as a one man shop. This is kinda like getting a look into my future in 5 or 6 years. Very similar to how I'm planning on building my business.
Great job! It was a pleasure to come into your shop and take a look

[@JoeK0322]

Hey guys, I really appreciate the quality and pride you put in your work. I just wanted to share something I observed in this video that I thought would be helpful.
You really don’t want to run a finished door across the jointer. You mention doing this “to re-square your door to have a flat edge to go off of”.
The jointer will take your door style out of parallel. This will mirror itself now on the table saw when squaring up the door again. This will result in a square door that has styles out of parallel to one another and appears slightly skewed.
This is why you face joint and edge joint a board first, then take it to the table saw to make parallel. This is also why you never joint both sides of a board, creating a wedge shape as a result.
Overall amazing cabinets though. Just wanted to pass the information along incase it wasn’t something you though about. It’s best practice to use the table saw for fine tuning after assembly. 🍻

[@5minutewoodworker143]

Love the inside look at the entire process!

[@Misterprepper]

Total respect to the older carpenters that taught us younger guys but it’s nice to see younger guys mastering the craft, don’t see much of that anymore.

[@Takumi-San]

That kerf cut at the bottom, that's a small but make or break detail. Very classy feature in this instance.

[@NSBuilders]

Capri Corn felt the same way. Love getting creative with our team

[@UnarmedZombie]

Amazing craftsmanship. I was surprised to find out you guys are like 30 minutes from where I live. Keep up the great work!

[@35son]

thanks for the preview of my bucket list of my life

[@NSBuilders]

Glad we could help 🙂

[@stuartschnare152]

The attention to detail is amazing. True modern craftsmanship.

[@NSBuilders]

We're all about the details. Thank you Stuart!

[@Machspd]

More Ken and more cabinet building. Relatively new to cabinet building, and I scour every source I can for info about how to build the highest quality, this seems to be top.

[@brianpeterson3752]

Omg you guys are ridiculously good. Zero builders out here work this way.

[@thaitichi]

These guys are setting the bar. I would be proud to work for a company like this. Keep up the great work!

[@512bb]

Truly impressed, you should all be very proud.

[@ID-hz1ju]

Keeping true craftsmanship alive !

[@davidbauman9409]

As a carpenter I truly appreciate ur hard work dat goes into this cabinet...d #1 is u pick out wood wit an eye on d wood grain...for me dats a big spiritual deal....most companies out for more production than quality....I just subscribed n wish I lived n Boston so I can I visit ur shop..wow...keep up d excellent work n videos u have a new student....we can never learn enough

[@gnusndn301]

Thank you for the detailed video it was great. As an old retired finish carpenter and cabinet maker I am glad to see the attention to quality still being done. Keep up the good work.

[@andrewcullen3235]

Well it’s settled then, these lads win. Best in the game.

[@NSBuilders]

Appreciate the kind words Andrew 😃

[@SgtZima]

INSANE level of quality, guys. Incredible work.

[@stevenfoust3782]

Great craftsmanship. Thanks for sharing how a modern master does it.

[@jeremyhitchcock6001]

Fantastic video and attention to detail. Would love to see more out of the shop from NSB. Who makes the 3/8" groove tooling you all are using? How do the guys like the cope-eze sled? "We've been told it's overkill, doesn't matter, that's how we want to do it, that's how we're gonna build 'em" - loved that line. To that end check out a miter lock on the shaper for the corners/returns and parallel the sticks on the shaper with an outboard fence rather then table saw, no machine marks/burns.

[@NSBuilders]

Appreciate the feedback Jeremy and thank you for the tip!

[@blandry021]

Great craftsmanship and attention to detail, and being proud of the product your company puts out.

[@Shutupalready47]

More cabinet builds please!

[@petee6476]

Wow!!!! This is the best video you guys have put out. I’ve already watched it several times. Great quality and craftsmanship. Excellent job.

[@NSBuilders]

Thanks, Pete really glad you enjoyed the video. More to come!

[@stephenpettinger1]

Really high level. Nice job guys!

[@NSBuilders]

Thank you Stephen!

[@merleschmidt8772]

Enjoyed watching your video on the process you use to make doors and carcasses. I too have been messing with traditional and modern technology, Not everything is a Kreg, or Festool. I love that you incorporated the M&T connection of your door and drawer frames.
We are down to essential services here only during the Covid 19, it looks like things are still happening there.

[@Extrmach]

Well done guys!👍👍

[@anthonysmith9410]

Over kill....great! Doing the minimum is just not excepted...thanks for a fantastic video
Remember everyone......you get what you pay for....QUALITY AT ITS BEST!

[@Finefinishcabinetry]

You Guy’s are the real deal great job!

[@zowyadoinbeb]

This video is fantastic. Thank you NSB!

[@tedrzz]

Wow top notch design and building...super inspiring!

[@Piperalpha81]

I wish I got to work out of a shop like yours. What a beautiful cabinet.

[@JRBardown]

Amazing quality. Attention to detail that could be straight out of Fine Woodworking magazine, in a commercial setting - which is impressive, cause we all know that pressure can lead to shortcuts. Obviously not the way NSB does things. 👌🏻👌🏻

[@MoGhotbi]

Master craftsmen at work.

[@rajakorban8838]

Thank you for a great inside look. There’s no substitute to doing the job right.

[@dashriprock5720]

You guys do nice work. I have a suggestion on you frame and panel construction which is especially helpful with solid wood panels. I know you have spacers, but cut the corners off your panels, then there far less chance of accidently gluing your panel with glue run out.

[@jonesconrad1]

That kerf looks really good.

[@elonmusk8667]

Thank you I learned so much from just this video. I'm going to watch your other ones too.

[@juanmallqui9309]

this has been such an inspiration, I am a homeowner but I love the idea of building my own furniture! I just bought myself the lamello zeta p2 and such a cool tool!

[@ArtByCater]

Boston Yea!
Small shop maybe, but Great equipment and very skill employees.
Nice grain match!
Nice work
Thanks Chuck

[@joethebuilder2480]

Great film and editing work

[@nebulousJames12345]

nice budget build

[@tyoung7528]

Very Nice work! (That vanity cabinet alone probably cost more than my entire bathroom!)

[@richkocher3330]

Very well done. I'm a stickler for detail. Your people are impressive

[@BostonMark]

Nice shop👍

[@isaac_opeyemi]

Commitment to excellence.

[@jayhilliard4365]

Very nice, well built and detailed. Would have liked to have seen cabinet from finisher

[@joepeters240]

Brilliant work guys, glad I subscribed, keep it up!

[@AmandaLaurelle]

Great footage! I feel like I could Join your team after watching this 😂

[@The-truth-is-valuable.]

You can take a damp cloth (preferrable cotton wool) and wipe the excess glue off while it is wet. And yes, you can scrape it and wipe it while it is setting up. Will save you lots of time later.

[@jsabados]

Great video and quality work guys. I enjoyed watching this video. Ian - It's only a dado if it's cut across the grain. If it's with the grain, it's a groove. Don't feel bad, I used to call them dados too!

[@TheUofastudent]

Love it !!!!

[@JRBardown]

Oh! Would also love some more details on that internal domino setup, 🤙🏻

[@daveklein2826]

Find the Festival channel on RUclips

[@SomeDumUsrName]

Very nice stuff man! Sometimes I think it would be nice to have a tooled-up shop like this. Sometimes not. I'm back and forth. I LOVE site building but don't like the new-construction environment in general. MUCH prefer remodel stuff. I much prefer the frequent change of setup and surroundings that site building offers.

[@nena4215]

I’ve never noticed the wood grain until watching your channel.....you’ve ruined it...shoot, now I see flaws in everything! It is truly amazing how all the grain matches, that one thing makes all the difference in the world!!! Thank you, that was a good one!

[@NSBuilders]

Amber & Nena Dalydisanto I remember that day, I’ve never been the same since

[@limbutucristian2425]

🤣🤣🤣

[@nat2relic]

Dang-it, I another reason for me to invest in the Domino system. :)

[@matthewmarello1347]

Dados are across the grain and grooves are with the grain. Generally width then length respectively. Otherwise very awesome work.

[@tonyalmeida40]

Fellow builder and PM for a fabrication shop. Absolutely outstanding work and progression towards such. Well done Gentlemen! Are you guys on CAD, RHINO, SKETCHUP? Seems like you rely on the builders vs the machines, more on the labor cost but lovely product. Keep it moving.

[@nikfish1]

I would be curious about the ball park pricing on a piece like this. Seems like a lot of effort and time goes into it from a whole bunch of people.

[@sadeqadnan1271]

Great
Actually all details and reasons have been mentioned.
Just if you add the coating process it would be completely teaching course about how to create cabinet doors.
Love it.

[@kurtallen8754]

Why the Lamello rather than the Domino for the face frames? Do the Lamello connectors come apart by design?

[@user-se4wq6xi4h]

Why no guard with dust collection on the sliding saw?

[@diesel_inthemorning_2315]

What is the cost of a custom built cabinet like this?

[@neildrachlen9149]

Love it❤️

[@danpatrick5944]

This is perfection, I don’t care wha no one saids!,,,

[@grandmadeeb1689]

What cad program do you use. Upgraded if possible.

[@subodai85]

Amazing to see the craftsmanship involved. I dread to think the cost of a unit like that though.

[@celticwoodworking8706]

Great video, but you guys need to invest in a push stick when your using the table saw.

[@daveklein2826]

They do just fine

[@screenwatcher6224]

Yeah you guys need a push stick for the table saw and paddle for the jointer

[@colinchesbrough5772]

😂😂. My first thought. One unlucky kickback, and he'll come up two and a half fingers shy.

[@armanflint]

Damn, that vanity is a wet dream.
I had to smoke a cigarette after watching this video, and I don't even smoke.

[@pabloandreslopezcortes4328]

very good video and excellent work !! could you upload more videos of this style

[@NSBuilders]

We're in the process of bringing you more videos like this.

[@MattFormoso]

how much do you charge, that is a hell of a process for building doors

[@matthewhiebing3507]

Where do you buy the foam for you panels?

[@icyfresh12]

What computer program do you guys use

[@monicalavale]

I couldn't help but wonder how many hours a day you all work!!
Only if I could get to work at a place like that...!!
Would you hire somebody without woodworking experience?

[@pmelchman]

What was the final thickness? looks thick 7/8?

[@prestonhoffman5695]

What is your typical rail and stile thickness? Also, what thickness do you typically but your rough sawn lumber at for your rail and stiles? Thanks for posting. Your stuff looks incredible.

[@philmckay9973]

nice to see ur "refreshed" mugs on hughtoob
what you think of Bury's Garnica products?

[@hellonoko]

Have you considered using a cross dowel jig to make higher end knock down cabinets that could easily be repaired / reused?

[@norikayrapetyan866]

Great work .I'm cabinet maker myself I would like to know how much you charge for a cabinet like that ?

[@dariod2666]

Do you guys build cabinets for other jobs or only your own builds?

[@alexjburkhardt]

Anyone questioning why custom cabinetry and quality workmanship costs multiple times more than box-store, off the shelf RTA products should be directed here. About to quit my job, move to Boston, and camp out for a job.

[@shantanarain2841]

I actually like to see how you outsource your lumber and where is a bonus that place looked smoothly operated clean and efficient why would they not want future customers to see that

[@ironman-sp9fg]

How much did that vanity cost? So much labor time seems like went into it. $$$$

[@peterpumpkineater873]

What’s the lumber yard care if they are on camera seems like it would be good advertising

[@daveklein2826]

Their business, their rules

[@johnbilgrave3743]

Great workmanship. How thick are your doors, looks like 1.25 "

[@JOIHIINI]

That doesn't rlly add up tho cuz they're using a 3/8 mdf veneer in the middle, looks like anywhere from .25 to 3/8 reveal on either side but 3/8 would kind of be an unattractive reveal so I'd lean towards 7/8 to 1 inch. At very most tho 1 1/8

[@Agatsu13]

You guys cranking out a surfboard in the background there?

[@NSBuilders]

That’s James’

[@Largepapa2]

You should get the unique machine ball system and a stacked shaper with more than one spindle so you can keep your cutters on without the changeover time.

[@jonesconrad1]

First thing I noticed was the MacBook I wish a model that old was fast enough for me, so much nicer than the newer models

[@NSBuilders]

Conrad Jones we bought him a new one, but he refuses.

[@chrissleblanc]

A domino in a mortise and tennon overkill

[@daveklein2826]

Perfection

[@MrTupeloFlash]

I thought I was good......until this

[@rapbisnar]

fam, how many videographers and editors you guys have to produce this many videos?

[@NSBuilders]

[@NSBuilders]

How do you build cabinets in your area?

[@hellonoko]

Only the finest Home Depot and IKEA here.

[@martyfarrell9459]

Ourselves.

[@remicioreyes5019]

I build on-site

[@wags99999]

We would start with building the face frames, with a 1/2" dado in the back. The 1/2" sides would be dadoed to receive the floors tops and the backs..Glue and blind pinning them all. No fasteners on the exterior of any cabinet, and using 1/2" prefinished ply for the interiors. Final touch up sanding on face frames as needed...then onto staining and finishing. Extended stiles as needed for scribing. No face frame cabinets would be joined with biscuits (or dominos now) with back routed into the sides...all 3/4" material. Shelves on both styles were either metal standards or drilled depending on the job. I like the care you take to match grain and color. We are lucky that we always were able to obtain panel and solid lumber from the same source, always a wholesale supplier.

[@fankin6691]

What is wood fletching?

[@bs838]

9:52 hold up
Also, since you're using plywood for the panels in the shaker doors, does it matter whether you glue them in or not?

[@daveklein2826]

They didn't glue

[@limbutucristian2425]

I have the same question like many other.
How much did you charge for it with all thoose forces involved?

[@limbutucristian2425]

Don't get me wrong, the build is spot on!!!

[@publicmail2]

Why do they not glue and allow inside panel to free float?

[@NSBuilders]

AD Electronic Teardowns expansion rates of materials. Less chance of cracking.

[@jksvirsky8]

Why are holes always drilled in shop tables?

[@daveklein2826]

They are bench dog holes

[@SAWimp1]

you guys like the cantek machinery?

[@SAWimp1]

theres good, and free, panel optimization and cutlist software for su.

[@NSBuilders]

So far so good. Price point is great and it’s on their smaller end of machines

[@SAWimp1]

@@NSBuilders i have their 14 inch straight line ripsaw and was a little skeptical at first but its turned out to be a great machine, 5 years no problems and runs smooth. considering getting some standard machines from them now.

[@roccoconte2960]

great vanity , but lets see how many guys worked on this one vanity, and the wood and installation ,what was the total cost for this one vanity?

[@unitwoodworking5403]
