When simple isn't so simple…built-in cabinet makeover.

- Small cabinet makeover! It's time to demo an old cabinet and rebuild it with form AND function! In this video, I completely make over a small built-in cabinet with all new storage options. The previous built-in cabinet was functionally deficient with shallow shelves and small drawers behind doors. With the addition of 2 large drawers, all new Shaker-style drawer fronts and paint to match the existing mudroom built-in, I was able to transform a small mudroom cabinet into a much more useful cabinet and storage solution.

Awesome tip on the rubber band.
Thanks! Glad it was useful! 👍🏻
Keith senin videolarini seve seve izliyorum.
Yenilerini ozluyorum.
BRAVO.
🙏🏻👍🏻😎
fantastic tutorial keith! but seriously, the star of the video was that hilarious fishing ad! "woah I caught a marlin" had me dying 😂
Thanks Eric! Glad you found something redeeming in that fishing ad. LOL. I've never caught a marlin before!! 😂🎣
@@KeithJohnsonCustomWoodworking I'd watch you do ad reads all day. throw in some seinfeld references like the bits and bits ad read next time 🤣
@@SpencleyDesignCo That's a solid idea!
This is the best video on drawer installations into a pre-existing cabinet that I've seen over the past years of watching many, many videos.
Wow, thanks! Glad it was helpful! 👍
We are in the process of building our first customer cabinets and this video helped a ton and also showed me how I want to build them in the future. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful! Thanks so much!
Good stuff! Always a good Saturday with a new KJ Sawdust video
Thanks Rob! I greatly appreciate the support!
Worth the price of admission just to see you do the Blum lateral stabilizers on those wide drawers! Thanks, I'm new to your channel, but I do similar work, so I'm a subscriber now! Very helpful.
Glad it was helpful! I greatly appreciate the comment and the feedback.
Great video buddy! Great quick improvement! Jason actually had a good tip for rails and stiles. He said to mark the “front” of each with an R or an S. And keep that side going the same direction on the fence when you cut the panel groove. That way if your grove isn’t perfectly center at least they all line up as long as the letters face the same directions.
Thanks Kris! It was hard to see but all faces were marked for just that reason. But that is a a great tip that I should have mentioned. Thanks!
Can’t believe it. You and Jason put out a video on the same day,and yours is the longer one.
😂🤣 wow! That IS unbelievable!
Lol but Keith actually replies.
@@matthewmarello1347 😜😂
😂😂😂
Keith found your channel thru your buddy at Bourbon Fly ? Some bug at the end? I hv looked everywhere for a good video on attaching and putting together under mounts slides !!! Thanks appreciate the great video! I am a finish contractor and cabinet maker ! Love to watch guys like you! Show some of your videos doing customer work?
Awesome! Bourbon Fly 😂😜. Thanks so much for the kind words and I'm glad the video was helpful. Thanks for watching!
Cool This Old House vibes
Much appreciated! Thanks!
@@KeithJohnsonCustomWoodworking I think a comment below is pretending to be you. Something about a giveaway
This video was perfect timing! I'm literally building new kitchen cabinets right now and I picked up some helpful tips from this video. Thanks Keith!
Oh fantastic! Best of luck with your project!
Fantastic work as always Keith. We’re all still waiting on the shop tour video!
You and me both! 😂 Got a lot of shop renovations and changes to make before I do an official tour. Stay tuned!!
I build boxes because they are fun to build and even more so on the CNC. But doing it for a living, no way, I’d farm them out too. Well done!
Amen to that! It just makes the best business sense to let someone else do it! Unless it's something super specific...
Damn you Keith!!! I just down loaded a fishing app!!! And I don't fish!!!!
😂🤣 Now you’re hooked! 😜
Really enjoyed the video and the details on the issues you encountered and how solved them. Also details on the drawer slide install. I did have a good laugh when you said "I will use traditional pocket hole joinery" - purist woodworking police will come after you 😁.
😂🤣 good catch!
Pretty amazing work, Keith! 😃
But yeah, sometimes paint can screw you up. 😕
Anyway, stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Thanks man!
You make a strong case for farming put the drawer boxes. So often ppl don’t factor in their time as an actual cost.
Right! Labor is definitely the driving factor. I would rather spend extra time on the finer details, rather than making basic boxes.
Do you have plans or instructions for your L-fence? Maybe even a video where you go into more details on how you use it?
Sorry, I don't. If you are a member of FineWoodworking online, you can read more about it here: www.finewoodworking.com/project-guides/shop-projects/the-incredible-l-fence
@@KeithJohnsonCustomWoodworking Thanks for the reply, I'll check it out!
Wow! This and the mud room upgrade are super impressive! Subscribed.
Thank you very much! 🙏🏻
You do good work, bud. Nice eye for design, too.👍
Much appreciated. Thank you! 👍🏻
Great video!
You mentioned that you order drawer boxes for most furniture due to time/cost. Where do you like to order those from? I find that building them myself adds lots of time to my projects as well.
Thanks man! Timbercraft Drawers in CT, Eagle Woodworking in MA or CCF Industries in PA.
Pretty impressive! Way to adapt and overcome.
Thanks very much!
Another amazing video KJ. A ton of very useful tips and tricks. As always, thanks for sharing. Stay safe kind sir!
Right on man! Thanks for watching!
Magnific work, i love this!
Thanks so much! I really appreciate it!
I bought a laminate trimming bit that has a 1/16” round over on it. I mainly use it to break sharp edges like you did with the chamfer bit
That's a great idea. I have one of those, too! 👍
Always great work
Thank you! Cheers!
You one of the best furniture makers that i have ever watched on youtube. It is always a pleasure to watch you' I think your videos are very educational and some small parts of some of your videos could be intertaining. Keep up the excellent workmanship!!
Thanks very much 🙏🏻👍🏻
Man, having paint issues is the worst. The cabinet looks great from here though. ;)
You got that right, Bruce! The same paint that has caused me no grief in the past now jumps up and bites me. But I will not be defeated! 😂
Awesome build. A bit of an odd place for drawers, but the work was solid.
Thanks Kevin!
Just wondering if you have ever tried C2 Trim and Cabinet paint? Its been my go to for awhile now, in satin. Its a little pricey but what paint isn't now. Its water based, dries quickly, and easy to sand.
Haven’t tried it, but I’ve heard of it. I’ve been sticking with what works until now when it all of a sudden doesn’t 😂. C2 is on my list to experiment with. Thanks for the comment! 👍🏻
Wow keith that looks nice. Man you really had to strugle with it. Nice work like i had come to expect from you Keith. Happy holidays
Thanks very much! Unfortunately, every job always has a curve ball up it's sleeve! 😜😂
Keith, where did you get those pants? They are dope! Also, you know this build was badass; it always is!
Thanks Jake! Pants are TrueWerk! T2 in winter and T1 in the summer.
I’d love to hear more thoughts on the Harvey guides compared to the Jess Em
Jessem is kind of a different animal. I generally only use them for processing sheet goods. They just get in the way with narrow stock.
Hey Wild Man, Good to see you hard at work. Great video, with sweet audio! I’d like to know if there was a final decision on why the spray job was funky. Thanks.
Thanks man! There seems to be a lot of the same issues being discussed in painting forums with this particular paint. Supply chain issues have forced a lot of these companies to change their formulas for certain paints and the results speak for themselves.
Hey Keith! Great vid as always. Any companies you would Rec on farming out drawers? Thanks in advance!
Thanks Aaron! I'm not sure where you live, but check out Timbercraft Drawers in CT, Eagle Woodworking in MA or CCF Industries in PA. They all do small orders and ship all across the country. The shipping cost is the shipping cost...rates have gone up for every company out there due to increased fuel costs, etc.
Hi Keith. A bubbly personality is great but a bubbly paint finish - not so much. I had a similar issue when spraying some Target Coatings products (all waterborne). The oil based stain I used had a cure time of 12 hours. I doubled the time. I then used a 50/50 mixture of denatured alcohol and water to lightly dampen a cloth and cleaned the surfaces. I waited an hour for that to dry. I also thinned my materials being sprayed by 10%. Lastly I cleaned, I mean REALLY cleaned my spray gun. No more bubbles for me. I don't know what did it but I think it was primarily the oil based stain not being fully cured before applying coats over it.
I have a 4 stage HVLP turbine and recently went to a 5 stage in order to spray heavier finishes. I still need to thin material but not as much as with a 4 stage turbine.
I will wait for your "CSI - Bubbles" episode (if you make one) to see the solution to your bubble issues.
Thanks for the comment and sharing your experience. I don’t spray any solvent based finishes, so alcohol isn’t an option. What’s frustrating is I sprayed BM Advance and Aura for years with a 3-stage HVLP and had no issues. These newer finishes have such a different chemical makeup and have really thrown a wrench into the works.
@@KeithJohnsonCustomWoodworking I only spray waterborne finishes. If the stain is oil based I will use a white 3M pad to apply it. I hear ya, something has changed in formulations. What used to work for the past 7 years now leaves me scratching my head and starting back at square one.
@@carlnolte1637 Glad to hear I'm not the only one. It's so frustrating. It cost me a ton of time and extra material, hence lost profit, on this job.
Awesome video, I always learn a lot from you and enjoy the level of detail you share. Will you ever do a shop tour? I have a few of the same machines and am struggling with the layout!
Thanks a lot, Nicholas! One day I will do a shop tour...I'm in the middle of trying to shoehorn some stuff in my shop right now, so it's not quite ready for presentation 😜
Hey, Great video! I always learn something more from each of your videos! Any suggestions on paint sprayers?
Thanks very much, Allen! I wish I had a good recommendation on a sprayer...I am currently on the search for a new system and a new finish. When I happen to find something that works for me, I will be sure to share my findings in a video.
What’s the secret to setting the drawer slides so the fronts are flush with the frame? Looks good!
Thanks Jason! The spec sheet for the drawer slides gives you the required setbacks. I always mount the slides using the elongated holes which allow for easy adjustment and then i permanently attach once everything is dialed in.
Sensacional!
Thank you!
Hallo Keith it’s been while,how you doing bud,hope you and family are ok 👌 good work
Thanks very much! Same to you! 👍
I much prefer working with Insl-X Stix // Cabinet Coat over Scuff-X line. Stix is easily my favorite primer if you aren't dealing with tannins. If you can find a product line called Milesi, I highly recommend their Water based Alkyd Urethanes.
I actually had a long discussion with The Milesi rep at IWF and I was almost sold until he said the finish is thick as pudding. I tuned out after that. LOL. I want to transition to much thinner waterborne lacquer finishes.
I just saw that featherboard elsewhere, you think its worth the expense? I love the cool factor.
It’s a luxury item, for sure. Cost is subjective as is everyone’s budget. A regular feather board is perfectly fine.
This was a perfect video for me. Several helpful tips. I’m just getting ready to do some doors and drawer faces. When you use the planer on the edges of the rails and stiles, do you have to contend with snipe? If so, what’s your strategy for working around it? Thanks.
Thanks Philip! My planer actually has no snipe so i don’t need to worry, but you can always leave your parts with 2-3 inches extra material on the ends and cut off later or run scrap pieces directly in front and then behind of your finished pieces and those will absorb any of the snipe

“Not too good” Great build bubble boy

Hola! 🖐Awesome video, you quality of work ALL THE WAY AROUND is "off the hook" (wink wink to your sponsor :D) Yikes, I'm a little terrified 😱with drawer slides now. When I get to building cabinets for my shop (hopefully sooner rather than later) I'm going to have to make a huge decision with which hardware to use, perhaps the most crucial decision of the whole project. Looking forward to your next video. Take care and have a good one, Adios! 👊
Thanks so much!! 🎣 Good luck with your shop projects!
@@KeithJohnsonCustomWoodworking appreciate that! 👍
Missed opportunity not showing Jerry the fishing game
😂🤣 he was a little cranky that day.
Keith I gotta tell you. Those Blum slides look nice but how in the world can you batch out drawer banks quickly at an affordable price? I get they are probably for smaller projects but dang they are expensive. I wish I could use them on all my drawers. Btw me and my 6 month old son watch your videos and he said he wants to see me. :)
Well, the quickest way is glue and brad nails. Cut your sides to size, cut the groove and then glue up the drawer bottom with all sides and brad nail it together. If you check the video on the huge built-in that Bourbon Moth and I recently did, we banged out 18 drawers super fast. They didn't have any finish on them, though. Here's a link to the video to the time stamp where started the drawer boxes: ruclips.net/video/MDXH90Bqdos/видео.html
Haven't seen any new videos lately... hope you're doing OK and just working on something really fancy!
I am! New video comes out this Saturday on my coolest project ever!!
Beautiful work. Just how many Woodpeckers tools do you have? Impressive...and expensive!
Thanks! I’ve never actually counted 😜😂
Keith I love your attention to detail and I learn so much from your videos. You do a lot in what appears to be a pretty small shop. The kitty cats are also wonderful. @@KeithJohnsonCustomWoodworking
@@ScottESchmidtThanks Scott. Shop is 390 square feet, so it definitely gets tight in there!
I saw you used your fence on you miter saw when you had a fairly long piece of wood to cut but used c.a. glue to hold down a stop for short pieces, I get around this by having a 10 inch piece of wood I place against the fence and then set the stop at say 15 inches when I need a 5 inch piece. Probably something you already know but....
Thanks Karen! Yes, i have done this before, but sometimes i just switch things up 😉
Great work. When you are spraying scuff x with the Fuji how much do you thin the paint down by?
I thinned it almost 20% and it's not enough. That Fuji can't atomize it sufficiently.
@@KeithJohnsonCustomWoodworking Keith can I also ask what tip you used? 1.8?
@@ericklodnicki yes, 1.8 and 2.0 👍🏻
What caused the lateral wiggle in the drawers? Is the amount of wiggle just a function of the width of the drawer?
It’s a function of the short 12” slides and the large drawer greatly exaggerates it
The paint, is it hc-163? Great color. I found it listed under 163.
Yes! That’s correct 👍🏻
Awesome build! Wondering if you feel scuff-x is that much better of an option for cabinets over BM Advance? I have a couple of large built-ins coming up and I'm debating between the two (I'd likely roll/brush rather than spray since I don't have the space)
If brushing, I do recommend the Scuff X, but stick with the Satin 😂. And I like Advance but it takes forever to dry.
Nice work Keith. Who do you usually use for your drawer boxes?
Timbercraft in CT
Another great video. Where would you typically buy your pre-built drawer boxes? Thanks
Thanks Jim! There a few places...Timbercraft Drawers in CT (they are my favorite), Eagle Woodworking in MA or CCF Industries out in PA. They all ship.
Is there a benefit to the L-fence on the table saw other than it being more reusable than a sacrificial fence?
Hey Dan! The L-fence is infinitely reusable and has countless uses for rabbets, miters, flush trimming, template cutting, etc.
Hey Keith, got anything new coming out soon? Really enjoy your videos.
Next week! And thanks for watching!
Sherwin-Williams Emerald Urethane would NEVER that 🤣
😂🤣 you’re right…it would never spray at all! 😂
Who do you recommend for best value drawer boxes?
Timbercraft Drawers in CT
Hey Keith, do you have a link to the Goldblatt things you were using as push blocks? Are those grout floats? Thanks!
amzn.to/3uZKIQO
Thanks!
Was that the Tamar - Katz-Moses router base?
Yep! 👍🏻
Hey Keith - Caught your note on farming out drawer boxes in this and other videos. You happen to have any recommendations for ordering dovetailed maple drawer boxes?
Do you mean companies to order from? If so, Timbercraft in CT or Eagle Woodworking in MA. They both ship.
@@KeithJohnsonCustomWoodworking Yep. That’s what I meant. Thank you!
@@JayOfSomeTrades Oh good!
id love to farm out drawer box creation, but ive never seen a venor advertising that kind of service for small volume orders. Am I just a dummy or is there a key phrase to google vendors near me or with reasonable shipping costs?
I've never come across a drawer supplier that has a minimum quantity. I'm not sure where you live, but check out Timbercraft Drawers in CT, Eagle Woodworking in MA or CCF Industries in PA. They all do small orders and ship all across the country. The shipping cost is the shipping cost...rates have gone up for every company out there due to increased fuel costs, etc.
I hope they paid you a lot for that fishing game spot.
Thanks for your concern.
What brackets you use to hang your tracks on the garage door?
amzn.to/3EI1GbQ
You painted maple? Why not use poplar?
Maple is much harder and more durable. Also takes paint better.
So sorry you had such problems with the finishing. I’ve had excellent luck using renner products, via a graco x5, tritech 380 fine finish gun, and gold fine finish tips.
Hey Matt! Thanks for sharing your spray finishing info. Renner is definitely a product I am going to explore more and I've also heard good things about the Graco 5 gun. I really appreciate the comment and the insight. Thanks!
@@KeithJohnsonCustomWoodworking For production work a Tritech T5 would be the play but for the sort of work you do and I do, the cheaper X5 works great. The magic is with the gun and tips though. I took a cabinet painting class from master finisher Dennis Rodriguez who's also become a good friend. He's the one that's developed allot of the techniques for using airless to spray these higher end wood coatings. Best to you and your business Keith. I love what you do.
@@handymadness Thanks man! And thanks again for the great info! I'm going to look into the X5 a little deeper. A friend of mine uses that setup with ChemCraft and has great success with it.
@@KeithJohnsonCustomWoodworking good stuff Keith. If you want any more info on the process I use I can share my notes from the class with you.

I swear I thought that fishing video game was a joke to make fun of Raid.
😬😂 🎣
you shop at rejuvenations huh live close to them there not to bad have a lot of stuff
And how about a brass grill in that kick plate. Those horizontal slots look meh!
The client was fine with the existing grill as is 🤷🏼♂️
@@KeithJohnsonCustomWoodworking and what do Jerry and Lola make of it? 🤪
@Andre Silva It passed the sniff test!
You can eliminate “pre” from your vocabulary by just saying the verb you are adding to. When you say “predrill” or “prethread” what you are describing is drilling or threading.
Thanks for the excellent content.
Oh well. I’m not changing at this point 😂
Every time I see this thumbnail in my feed, all I can think of is that the location of this cabinet would never pass a home inspection. So dangerous.
Well, it did. It was a complete home renovation and passed all inspections before I refaced the cabinet.
