    Nice vid! This is the simple way. Too many people make it too complicated. Great stuff with the C-cutout for play (another thing most people don't realize).
    Quick comment: If you're by yourself you can set the front of the slide on your spacer, get it level, then drive the rear screw. The front is held by the spacer. Then drive the front, then the center.

    Great tip about the screw holes in the C-shaped cutouts allowing for play in drawer width. Thank you.

    I, too, had to run my drawers through the table saw for a tiny notch. But, now I have learned. Great video.

    Awesome. I never knew that about where to put the screws so there's some flex to accommodate the width.

    That last comment was exactly my question. So add the 1/16 of an inch. Your first comment was confirming for me as well, This is one of the more challenging things, because it has to be exactly square and exactly the right measurement wide, or it won’t work. Thx!

    My build is for a van and my cabinet face doesn't have the traditional construction, so the Kreg jig would not even work. This? This will work! Thank you.

    Add a small nail on the line to hold your drawer slide level and it's a one-man operation

      Another tip for 1 man operation is to lay the cabinet on its side and let gravity help hold it in place…

    "..about perfect."? On the other hand, the video was most helpful. Thank you.

    • @OldSoulMillennial
      @OldSoulMillennial  6 месяцев назад

      Yes, about perfect. I am a human, not a computer controlled robot. I always strive for perfection, but perfection doesn’t really exist. I do the best I can with the skills and tools I’ve acquired.

    All good! Of course, we don't always have someone handy to help hold the outer slide part to the box. You could use a longer piece of 1/4" plywood and clamp it to the cross piece, after removing the 1/4" spacer.

    I’d rather install the inside slider first. Then pull the drawer out enough to get the first screw in and then move to the second screw back.

    Why not clamp a 1/4” board to the front frame and rest the slides on them. No need to try to alight it to the line or second person to hold it.

  • @alanrichardson7244
    @alanrichardson7244 Год назад +1

    Too much measuring. Just use a board cut to height.

    What you have is simple enough that you don't need a jig because you don't have a face frame. If you are building caninets with face frames then your method will not work.
    Thought you have a new method but you don't. There is nothing new here and you don't need a jig
