Thanks for the support!
John, I could not be more impressed. Very nice work. The kind of work I expect out of myself before I start. Not exactly what I end up with when I'm done most of the time though. Lol
Haha I appreciate it! And always a good thing to have high expectations
This is an awesome build! Just beautiful! Hello from Tennessee!
Thank you!!
john ...man, the longer your videos are they more enjoyable they are to watch,your one hell of a craftsman
Thanks, I appreciate that!
Love this but would have loved a video further back at the end to see the whole thing at once
inset drawer face is always a big win in my book.
🙌🏼🙌🏼
Great video as always John! I'd love a video detailing the process you employ for the paint booth. I've already got zip walls from past remodel projects, but I'm sure you've got a system down pat that is quick to setup and maintain a clean shop.
Thanks man! I actually have another idea for quick booth setup. Just need to find time to do it and I’ll make a video 👍🏽
Wow, you’re very good. All the details done so expertly!
Thank you!!
Nice work. Your wife is a lucky woman.
Thanks! 🙌🏼
Great build. Got some good ideas for mine. Thank you!!
Excellent job as always. Thanks for the video!
Thanks!!
Nice work I'm a professional cabinetmaker and it's good to see somebody doing quality product. Well done
I appreciate it!
Turned out amazing looks beautiful
Thanks Jim!
Excellent build John!
Thanks Dan!
Beautiful work as always!
Thank you!
Happy wife… Happy life
Yes sir!
Happy man…happ- no one cares 😢
Happy spouse..happy house
Love it!! ❤
That’s beautiful, nicely done as always!
Thanks I appreciate it🙌🏼
Increíble trabajo, me encanta... Gracias por compartir tus proyectos, un abrazo desde Chile 🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱
Thank you!
Nice work. We have a walk-in closet in our 60s home as well as a wall with two closets with sliding doors. It takes up a whole wall. I wanted fit out the walk-in with built ins as well as remove the doors and wall between them closets. Then make a large insert with a spot for a TV like you did. With drawer storage and make some full cabinets for full length and half link along with maybe some shoe storage. Would just make it a bit for functional.
Definitely sounds more functional!!
Awesome work and very great detail!
Thank you!
One of the best builders on RUclips! Thank you so much for sharing this, very impressed 😃
Thank you!!
I normally skip to the end results with most videos, but I always watch the whole video when it comes to your builds. Nicely done, yet again! I'll be waiting for the next one!
Haha I appreciate that man!
I was just telling my wife I wanted to build something like this in the bedroom a few weeks ago! Nice work.
Thanks man! Do it!!
Great build and video as usual, John! Always impressed with your designs and attention to detail.
Thanks Mike I appreciate it!
Wow! That looks amazing! My wife has been asking for something like this, and you just made me a hero.😂 Thanks for making these videos. Also, I would like to see an in depth video of the scribe process. Thanks again.
Haha awesome man, get to building!
Nothing wrong with spoiling your wife. This is just beautiful.
Thank you!!
This is amazing!! Super clean and timeless design
Glad you like it!
Obsessed with Milwaukee! Just like I am! I'm jealous of that track saw but only because I haven't bought mine yet. Thanks for the cabinet building tips!
It’s been an awesome saw man!
I had a plan as to what cabinets I would add to my library/office but after watching your video I have decided to make many changes. Every cabinet maker out there suggests a toe kicks so I didn't give it that much thought but your build without toe kicks looks so much better and will allow me to add baseboard molding, after I make it, to the bottom of the cabinet so it matches the rest of the room.
Adding the crown and in my case the baseboard molding before redoing the molding in that room will also make it a lot easier when I replace the crown molding and reattach the rest of the baseboard molding I need to remove so the cabinet looks like it belongs in the room is a smart idea. It will also make finishing the room so much easier as construction fatigue sets in. Altogether it is a beautiful cabinet. I own a house built in 1893-96 and the closets are oddly sized to say the least. I know how frustrating it is to dig into an over stuffed closet and having to add additional lighting just to easily find a particular outfit. I realize that I will have to add a few inches at the bottom to allow for the baseboard molding but that is a minor issue. I am saving this video to watch again before I redo my plans. Great build!
Glad you were able to take some ideas for your own products, love to hear that! Enjoy the build!
I have a built-in project coming up. This gave me some great ideas! Thanks!
Awesome, thanks for watching!
I enjoy watching your videos also; duration is no problem. Very nice work, indeed, and a pleasure watching you assemble/work and fit, and the dialog is excellent as well. I like it all and enjoy learning from the pros.
Thanks for sharing.
Thanks me for the feedback I appreciate it!
That looks spectacular! Nice work! I love how you didn't paint the inside of the cabinets white.
Thanks! I prefer it this way too
Another great, and well described, project. Thanks, John.
Thank you!!
That looks amazing!
Thanks man!
I would've watched your 3 hr build video! 😂 Great work as always.
Thank you!!
Well done! Love the Shaker style gives it a nice clean look. Great job!
Thanks man!!
Great work, man!
Thanks a lot!
Looks like great work!
Thanks!
Clean, accurate and executed flawlessly
Thanks man!
Absolutely beautiful! Nice work as always 😊
Thank you!
Wow, that’s so nice!
Thank you!!
Really nice job!
Your finish came out super nice as well, would love to see a more indepth video of your process.
Thanks! Will do!
@@JohnBuildsIt Agree with the request for more info. I'm curious what your process is for paint selection, thinning methods, and if any top coats (poly) go over the paint.
Wow, that is some great work. Very impressive.
Thank you very much!
Great job as always. Keep up the great work!
Thank you! 🙌🏼
Very nice work Sir!
🙌🏼🙌🏼
of all the impressive things you did the one thing that caught my attention was that little milwaukee wall vacuum to catch the drywall dust. never seen that before, i always used blue tape to create a ledge.
Works great for stuff like that!
Beautiful build
Thank you!!
Great work!
Thanks!
Great build. Professionally done👍
Thanks 👍
Great build. Not sure if everyone watching can appreciate your above level skill, competency and efficiency. I have worked at a number of cabinet shops and construction companies so hopefully my praise has some value. I do think there is a penchant for woodworkers to miss not being privy of the need to work on not sounding monotonous. We need to learn to adjust pitch and intonation for emphasis, and color when explaining and describing processes..
Thank you! I was just saying that. Have to remember the mundane, basic tasks for some of us, may not be for a lot of viewers. Tough line to walk making videos for sure
Looks good!
Thanks man!
Great job, looks great! Couldn’t tell in the video, but it didn’t look like you glued the MDF door panels in place. Any particular reason, why not, I always do. There’s no wood movement to worry about. To me, it makes the door feel more solid.
I glue them in place afterwards with ca glue. I like to make sure the reveals on the inside are even all around and then squirt some tabs of glue down in the groove to hold ‘em
I would like the detail oriented videos
Definitely thinking I’ll get into those videos more, thanks!
Great video. Great build also.
Thank you!!
Outstanding
Thanks!
Clean brother 💯
🙌🏼🙌🏼
Birch Peel and Stick Edge Banding, speed up the process if you don't want to use the iron, I prefer using Peel and Stick Edge Banding over the other one, good video 👍
I’ve yet to try that. Not trusting that it’ll last haha you’ve found it holds up good though?
@@JohnBuildsIt that is what I use I've been using for 2 years now quicker than the one you use but I will never use any other brand if is not 3M twice expensive as iron tape though
Great idea 💡 👍 👏
Thank you!
As always nice work and good videos
Thanks again!
John... as alway, great video, great product... truly enjoyable and inspiring. Keep it up! Quick question, what are those spacers you’re using for the drawer faces and where can I get them?
amzn.to/3MPvRCD
@@JohnBuildsIt thank you
You are a master craftsman!
Haha far from it, but thank you!!
Job well done as always, John! What topcoat finish do you use? I know you mentioned the primer, but not the topcoat. It's a beautiful finish!!
This is sherwin Williams emerald urethane to match the existing trim and doors
Great video ahead of a built-in I have coming up! Question - what type of paint / finish did you use as a topcoat? I always struggle with what's best for a built-in like this.
This is sherwin Williams emerald, to match the existing trim and doors
Clear, concise, straightforward, excellent video and voiceover information. Got my subscription. Would definitely love more in depth on the details. I always put off my projects until I am sure I can finish it professionally. So those details help a lot. Well done sir.
Thank you! Really I probably could’ve made 5 or more in depth videos all from this one project haha, I’ll give it a try!
Built-ins look great! What's that drywall dust catching attachment you used when cutting the gang box for wiring? Looks way faster and more effective than my blue painters tape trick.
Did anyone else's eye twitch when he said, "need scribed/caulked." It's like hearing/seeing "for sell"
Very nice!
Thanks!
I love it!!
🙌🏼🙌🏼
Great video on the wardrobe build. What is the name of the rip fence? I didn’t see it in the description list.
Thanks!
The jessem stock guides? They’re linked in the description 👍🏽
Beautiful my man
Thanks! 🙌🏼
Great build! Simple design but incredible overall project. What do you usually use as your top coat when using BIN shellac primer?
I’ve been using target coatings water based lacquer a lot, but this is sherwin Williams emerald to match the existing trim/doors
I love your channel it helps me so much in my wood working,thank you so much for the expertise. I have a question,on your kreg conceal hinge jig do you use the 3mm settling for all your hinges??
No some hinges are different. Always just want to read the instructions that come with the hinges to be sure
Hey John, good stuff per usual. Quick question though: I have that same larger Rigid shop vac. What is that intermediate stack between the top and body? I'm assuming it's some sort of cyclonic apparatus, I just have never seen or heard of one like that before.
It’s an idea Dustopper was working on. They have a video about it on their channel I believe! But yea it’s basically a built in separator
Great build John. Do you find you can get very straight cuts off the track saw by moving the track for longer cuts. I just picked up the makita track saw and was holding off buying a second track for fear of alignment issues.
In this case with scribing, it wasn’t a straight cut I was trying to do haha wavy wall. To join 2 tracks you’ll most likely have to trim the ends to square them up, none of mine have come perfectly square
All that work and you didn't spend the $2 on a décor plug.. where is that unsubscribe button??? :) great job man!
Haha I don’t what you’re talking about, I don’t see anything behind the tv! Thanks man!
excellent
Awesome job as usual! Love the build process and your builds always feel approachable. Quick question, do you only have the 55” track for the Milwaukee track saw? I was looking to buy the saw as well but not sure about dropping the crazy amount of money on the larger track as well as getting a 55”. Thanks again and keep up the great content.
No I ordered the 106” too. I’d just start with the 55” and get a feel for what you want and works for you. For my makita I just have 2 of the 55” that I join together for long rips
@@JohnBuildsIt thanks for your reply. Was just curious since I saw you cut a long rip by moving the smaller length one (from what I could tell at least). I have heard mixed reviews on joining the two 55” tracks together vs a 106” long one. Things to think about. At least starting with a 55” one. Thanks.
@@esterndesign the long tracks getting damaged in shipping is a big problem, but I will say my Milwaukee arrived safe and is dead on straight. On joining 55” tracks, I don’t know why, but every track I’ve seen, the ends don’t come perfectly square. So they do usually need trimmed then they can be joined with no issues. Oh and on that cut where I was moving the track, that wasn’t one long straight cut haha wavy wall! Thanks for watching man!
@@JohnBuildsIt ah that makes sense. Do you trim the 55” on the miter saw? Thank you
@@esterndesign yep!
very cool!!!
🙌🏼
Impressive.
Thanks for watching!!
Nice love it
Thanks!
Great project! What was your paint of choice?
Sherwin williams Emerald
Very nice looking! How many hours did you have in this build?
I have no clue haha, with filming 3x as many as normal
Very nice
Thanks!!
Love it❤
Thanks!!
it's very good job .
Thanks!
John, how can you handle that Kreg K5 jig? I had that thing a few months before the pawls (I think the system is fully plastic?) on the clamp completely failed. I ended up getting a K4 and has been reliable since.
Not sure haha have had mine for several years and no issues🤷🏻♂️
Very nice! Do you let the inside just how it is or is there some kind of clear finish on it?
No these are left unfinished
Why do most builders not like pocket holes and screws?
Some people misuse them for furniture, etc. Cabinetry like this is what they’re intended for
What are those crown molding clamps?
Collins miter clamps. They’re linked in the video description 👍🏽
I bought that edge band trimmer at Menards and I absolutely hate using it. The blades keep shifting on me even if the bolt is tightened properly and I just don't feel like it offers me the level of control I want.
I thought I've seen you use a different trimmer in the past. Am I mistaken?
You have this yellow one I’m using here? Man this is the only one I’ve found that actually works good for me! I’ve tried probably 4 different ones of the 2 sided style, nothing but frustration. Before I found this I was just using a plain razor blade
@@JohnBuildsIt Yes, I do. When it works for me, it leaves a great finish, but when it doesn't I just get frustrated. The latter happens about 75% of the time.
The blades on mine keep "unseating" themselves as if the plastic separates just a hair too much. I have to re-seat them and tighten it back up. I might try a more rigid backer plate, if you will, to alleviate that. Maybe mine's a lemon.
I'm a bit skeptical of the two-sided ones because I'm afraid of a tear-out on one side depending on the grain direction.
I'll keep tinkering with it. It doesn't help that I hate applying edge banding!
Круто 👍🏻 получилось.
How long did this project take?
Like actual work time? No clue lol. But overall timeline, a week and a half
…new subscriber. Nice video.
I appreciate it!
What paint sprayer was that?
Graco 9.5 hvlp
What did you use for the top coat?
SW Emerald
Looks really great. I tensed up every time you installed hardware or pocket screws with an impact. How does that red kool-aid taste?
Pretty good for the most part. Has different drive modes for a reason
If you're drilling a hole - use a drill. Anything else is best handled with an impact. It's definitely one of my favorite tools.
Looks great!
Thanks!
