Matt, I’m so impressed with your planning and execution of what many people would categorize as a very simple project. You have created an elegant solution to drawers in a storage cabinet. I’m very impressed!
Cool. I started out figuring this would be "a very simple project" and appreciate that you're impressed by the 'elegant solution' it ended up requiring to succeed. I'd say I was most relieved as I learned that it didn't require a single fastener to secure the drawer glide mounting blocks into the cabinet to achieve 'rock solid' installation achieved with 'elegant' fitting, notching, etc. Hope that's true for other cabinet brands and designs so that this video doesn't prove false hope for would be organizers!
I watched the complete video and sir, you are thorough. It was a very good job. It truly is the Next Level of Carpentry
Nice to see I'm not the only one with a dozen or more spray paint cans and other cans of 'stuff'.
I really like this storage method, drawer slides are one of the best inventions and especially for hard to store items like spray paint and bottles, cans and a lot of things we tend to hoard lol.
Right you are... I didn't realize how dysfunctional storing things on shelves in a cabinet can be compared to pullouts until I got these toolchests.
Holy CRAP!! That parabolic arc trick is SO cool!!!
That EllipseStick is pretty slick.
Thx! Works like a charm every time...
Hey Matt, I enjoyed this one more than the Patreon video. Not more detail, but seeing it again helped me appreciate the subtle tips and tricks.
Thx Jim... I couldn't believe this ended up an hour long... and I was trying to streamline the production! Lots more little steps involved than one might think seeing them at a glance.
Thank you. You are a true carpentry master. Your videos are both knowledable and entertaining. God Bless.
Sweet! I like how, as a carpenter you're open to designing with metal and vinyl/plastic. Too often, woodworkers make things that have a heavy/clunky look, not just operation.
Thanks for watching and commenting on this one. Totally agree about benefits of thinking outside the (wooden) box where some projects are concerned. Makes me glad they invented steel and plastic, right? 😁🤣
Amazing attention to detail! True next level carpentry!
Thank you very much!
Very clever design on the blocks for mounting the drawer glides! I bought some used office filing cabinets for cheap to keep a bunch of stuff. They work pretty well, but are definitely not as nice as your custom cabinet pull outs.
Thanks for sayin'! Filing cabinets like yours are a great option where space, budget and stuff-to-be-stored are considered. After all "nices as your(s)" is all relative, right? 😉
Another fine video. I learn something new from almost every one of your videos I watch.
Glad to hear it Scott thanks for letting me know! FWIW I'm quite pleased with the look function and performance of the pull-outs in my shop and I only regret is waiting so long to make the upgrade...
Great content. Helpful, clear, informative and well produced.
Those are great drawers, Matt. Once again, RUclips didn't notify me of your video. It's not your fault. I will try and turn off the reminders and turn them back on and see if that works. Thanks for sharing.
Great work as always Matt. Your long videos showing each step and your clever solutions are my favorites since I learn so many useful tips for future projects. This is why I became one of your patrons a couple of years ago.
Always nice to see comments from patrons... glad you liked the video and thanks for the extra support. I assume you saw the other two Patron only videos on these pull outs?
Best,
Matt
Cool arc maker. Still with you and enjoying the build.
Thanks. Hope you'll check out the linked 'ellipse stick' arc-maker video to see another/better application of that time-tested trick!

Excellent job as always, thanks for posting
Wow perfect execution! Love it.
Nice work, great idea.
Excellent
It is amazing how you process the details. Details matter! Thanks for another great video.😊
Nice job, the cabinet looks awesome
New subscriber! Thanks so much for all of the details. I'm fairly new to woodworking/carpentry and I get lost on othe videos when they edit out stuff or assume that I know the names of the tools used or how they came to their design decisions or their measurements. Its very hard for me to do it on my own without knowing the why and how. I appreciate your time and effort. And please ignore people that complain about the length of videos or the number of steps, stay true to your methods because they look great and are functional. My goal is to replicate your methods i just don't have all the tools yet!😊
Thanks for your appreciative comment! Your tool collection will grow organically over time like mine did so you'll end up with tools that are most useful to you without the clutter of unnecessary tools found in a lot of shops where tools were added because of marketing and hype instead of practical need.
I love watching your videos with real craftsmanship at It's finest
My hope is that the 'real craftsmanship' part is motivational for viewers more than intimidating... I've long felt that it takes a lot to be good... and just a little more to be great and want to inspire viewers to internalize that into their life and work.
Matt, well done my friend!! Hey nice work as usual. Keep doing great she inspirational things! And until next time, take care.
Youbetcha, Brent! Thanks for watching and commenting!
As always, an interesting, and entertaining video about an ingenious project. Sweet!
Thanks! 👍👍
Thanks for watching this one Jerry! My only regret is not tackling this a few years ago for how much more efficient it is. Better late than never though, right?
Awesome stuff, as always. So many great tips and ideas packed into this project. The binder pin screws are similar to something I've used in leather crafting called Chicago screws. Thanks for sharing such a great video!
Though no where on your level I have learned so much and I am getting better thanks for your videos and if you keep making them I will be watching them till the end
Hope you have/had fun at the end of the end on this one Ken!
Matt, another outstanding build. Enjoyed watching this one. Gives me some ideas for my own shop.
Thanks for sayin'! FWIW this addresses a frustration I've had for over 5 years with these otherwise good tall storage cabinets so, if you need a nudge to optimize your setup, consider yourself nudged! 😉😎
Great stuff Matt!
Thanks Greg. You might have noticed I kept corrupting the term 'binder post screws/bolts'? I still can't say it consistently because, in my old carpenter's vocabulary, those are either 'through bolts' or 'sex bolts' like the ones used for commercial door closers, lock security plates, toilet partitions, etc. and I bet you can relate? 🤣🤣
@@NextLevelCarpentry We've always called them sex bolts. Our blue printers call them binding posts. I can absolutely relate!
THANKS
Well, this is now on the list to do on my HF US General cabinet.
I'd be interested to know what challenges you encounter making drawer glide mounting blocks in your US General cabinet. In this video I make the assumption that each brand will be 'the same thing, only different' and am curious if that's a valid assumption or just wishful thinking.
Best,
Matt
@@NextLevelCarpentry I'll keep you posted
I have found that re purposed file cabinets already have the drawers and pull out drawers shelves 😊
I was thinking exactly this. Did you have to modify much? Its on my mind...
Man!! I love this stuff but I still drive a truck 60 hours a week and don’t have time. Good work
Tough to spend time on hobbies with that work schedule... hope you get a reprieve at some point to do more stuff you want to do than stuff you have to do...
Man that was greatness🫡
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ for making it to the end of the end of the end! 😎
Thanks for the longer version Matt. Obviously, I saw the other one on Patreon. I think your subscribers would have appreciated knowing where you got the bottom pieces.....hint hint hint to you people who are not on Patreon!
... and just how I earned a blood blister under my fingernail too, right?! 🤣
Good video. Never thought about using binding posts for drawer slide. Great idea. Also could you do a short talk about using catalyzed lacquer. I've always avoided using is for fear of it damaging the spray gun by hardening before the job is finished. Like bondo or epoxy does some times.
I've not done any videos on RUclips about that lacquer: too many landmines to avoid, if you get my drift. I can tell you though that pre-cat lacquer is nothing like bondo or epoxy. The recommended shelf life of a gallon after the catalyst is added is 6 months but I just sprayed some that was on the shelf for 18 months without issues. I think it dries a little slower after more than 6 months but neither the project or spray equipment suffers. The catalyst is pretty benign but does seem to make it dry quicker when sprayed vs non-catalyzed lacquer. Really nice stuff: sprays easily, sands pretty easily after a few hours and leaves a nice, durable finish IMHO.
Agreed! Binding screw posts have been added to my must get list.
@@BostLabs They're excellent for certain rare applications IMHO but the range of sizes and lengths is so broad that I pretty much by them on an as-needed basis. FWIW they get used in this NLC video too for a completely different purpose: ruclips.net/video/e7-TUG6-ED0/видео.html
Your good.
28:46 and I'm still here😮
I'll never pull that off, (forgive the pun) but it was a great video to watch anyway. Watching a pro is its own form of entertainment....
👍👍👍👍
No end of the end of the end?
Great job. Nice how you were able to install with out going through the cabinet.
So the link in the description is where you can get different types of fasteners and hardware to fit your needs?
The little 60 second build clip was meant to be the end of the end of the end on this video.🤓
Yes links in the videos description are to some of the unique and unusual things like what was used in the video to build these pull-outs.
1 hour flew by like nothing
And was well spent
Always a pleasure to witness your work.
I think from now on... I'm going to refere to you as "Matt Hollywood" Jackson! Or just "Hollywood" for Short!!! 😂
Yeah, I get that a lot these days! NOT! 😟
What do I think? II think your parabolas may be elliptical. Not a huge deal, but thought you should check it out. Like the presentation. Added it to my favorites!
I think you're correct-er than I am! Can you explain the difference? I've always kind of assumed a parabola is half an ellipse but, now that you point it out, figure that must not be the case? Glad you like the video... thanks for watching and posting a polite clarification!
@@NextLevelCarpentry I love the way you make your ellipses. the difference is the way they intersect the planes of the cone
ruclips.net/video/VAz-X6uaSs4/видео.html
@NextLevelCarpentry video @stevenhines555 provided is illustrative. A parabola has a single locus point around which it curves. As you move away from the locus the parabola continues to open endlessly. I good example of a parabola in use is the headlamp of a motor vehicle. The lamp occupies the locus point of the parabolic curve and the interior of the lamp is coated in reflective material. The advantage of the parabola comes from the fact that all light reflected off the reflective surface emits from the headlight parallel concentrating the beam of light forward instead of allowing it to scatter. The light that emits directly out of the headlamp, never striking the reflective surface, scatters as it pleases. Now a headlight is a three dimensional projection of a parabola spun around an axis through the locus point and is more correctly labeled a paraboloid, but it is based on the underlying shape of the parabola describing it.
An ellipse has not one, but two locus points, and in the apparatus you devised are represented by the two brads you drove into the wooden slat. Were the brads dropped into slots at 90° right-angles to each other instead of run along the edge as you showed, the ellipse would curve around and then back upon itself. I do believe what you drew is 1/4 of an elliptical curve. Stumpy Nubs illustrated making full ellipses with an apparatus very similar to what you used, here: ruclips.net/video/7KYsWwB8xMQ/видео.html .
Hmm. Could you have gang-cut and trim-routered the sides by using double-sided tape to stack sides, then using the drill press to transfer the spacer holes all the way through?
Definitely worth considering so I like the way you're thinking.
Methods like that have potential for speeding up 'mass production' of pieces like pullout sides but require more attention to precision for consistent results. Deflection in sawblades or drillbits, very small misalignment of stacked pieces etc can quickly spoil a whole stack of pieces and cost more than time saved.
I noticed the can of Johnson Paste Wax....how much do you have left? Mine is almost gone 🤦 it's a shame they stopped making that stuff.
I bought that can in 2021 and it is about 1/2 full. I found here but the price is bananas!: amzn.to/49OMHd9
I've bought stuff like this in the past and I think it's the same thing only different: amzn.to/49wtzRc
@@NextLevelCarpentry I saw some being sold on ebay too, for a ridiculous price...and some were only partial full/used! 😳
I think you drew an ellipsoid curve, not parabolic.
You're probably right... 🤯😎
Wow perfect execution! Love it.
Thanks a lot!
