Made 100% from scrap wood cut-offs and remnants. Not a penny was spent on material. Built as a shop cabinet to hold glue bottles 😬
Walnut (scrap)
Pomelle sapele veneer (remnant)
Figured quarter-sawn ash (scrap)
Recycled hardware
Hand cut dovetails
Sliding dovetails
4 finish coats
I used this project to continue learning the veneer process. This cabinet taught me a hard lesson about glue bleed-through, which I’m thankful for. Shop projects are the best test-beds for this.
Now to load this thing up with filthy bottles of adhesive 🥺

This is the first video of yours I have seen. You are an excellent woodworker with an artists touch. I also love the fact that the only sounds you hear are the sounds of the workshop. No music, no talking. It’s marvelous. Great video. You have earned a new subscriber.

Thank you 🙏!! I’ve debated on going to a commentary style format in the past, but I feel it gets too distracting. I’m enjoying the stress-free environment of remaining silent 🤫.

Thanks, Shaun! I’ve learned to slow things down a bit over the past few years and it’s paid dividends with my learning.

Love it Rick. I’ve been doing a lot of contrasting wood projects. Been diggin’ that look. Cool to see the veneer in this one. Something I’ve been close to pulling the trigger on trying out myself. Great job.

@RPBasilio Ай бұрын

Thanks, man! I’m slowly learning the process and shop furniture is the perfect medium to experiment.

Another beautiful build. I think my favorite thing about your work is the meticulousness of everything. Especially when you’re doing several drawers and cabinet inner frames to support several drawers. Smaller definitely is not less work. Made me think of the sliding dovetail use. Kev’s Workshop did a video a few days earlier that also did full depth sliding. Not sure when using the dovetail in only the front and the rest is a dado becomes advantageous. Maybe why is production difference and it is personal preference. Give and take either way I think.

@RPBasilio Ай бұрын

Thanks, man👊👊. I like the through dovetail vs the dado much better these days. Seems to do a better job of holding the cabinet square and just more secure

@FearsomeWarrior Ай бұрын

@@RPBasilio Yeah. I don’t know how to describe the dovetail first inch with a dado behind joint. On the face it looks like a full sliding dovetail but it is just the front. Frank’s Workbench wall shelf is the most ready example I can think of but it is old. I think there are circumstances between projects that might lean one way or another between. Like any joint.

@marekpaul6110 Ай бұрын

I really wish I had "scrap" walnut like that ..Looking at your other shop furniture it all appears to be constructed from pretty exotic/expensive wood or veneers. In the UK the price of crap wood is so high that any "nice" wood is totally out of reach

@RPBasilio Ай бұрын

I’ve heard the prices of lumber in the UK were astronomical. Sorry to hear that. And I thought the US had high prices…🫤

An over the top glue cabinet made from primo 4/4 walnut? You’re a wild man sar’nt Basilio. Turned out great. Where did you get that artwork on your table saw….awesome? Hoodie strings will make that a reality. Fix that fubar wobble on your table saw. Top sees that he’ll rip you a new one.

@RPBasilio Ай бұрын

lol - I don’t need Top on my ass. I’m already scared to walk on my own grass 😂. And yeah, the draw strings are an issue for sure. I know better than that and even threw them over my shoulder in one scene. But - no excuse. And the stencil on my table saw was something my daughter made on her cricket. I’m a huge Goonies fan 🏴‍☠️

@tomowens2720 Ай бұрын

Love that artwork, she did good. I served as aircraft mech Navy 79-76. My division chief was a by the book hardass. If there was even a hint of a Charlie Foxtrot in the making lives were made miserable. I learned to embrace the suck quickly.

@Dustins_Woodworking Ай бұрын

I am wondering why the doors were initially constructed inside the case? Was that just to get the perfect fit? But then you probably planed them afterwards. Just a little stumped on that step. Great work. It came out beautiful.

@RPBasilio Ай бұрын

Hi Dustin. You are correct. By building them in the case, you automatically correct for any cabinet corners that are not exactly 90 degrees. Once this is done, I scrub the rails and styles and cut to final reveal. Much much easier than building it outside of the box and then trying to fit with perfect reveals.

@1deerndingo Ай бұрын

Nice furniture. Nive video. Nice manufacturing process. Which makes it all very, very nice. How did you get around not veneering both sides. You were quite successful in doing it. I always have to veneer both side to stop bowing, cupping.

@RPBasilio Ай бұрын

Thanks! So both sides are veneered actually. I just realized the video didn’t show the back side process! But definitely veneered to prevent any issies

Beautiful cabinet. Totally unnecessary walnut...love it. One comment...I think the door pulls are wrong, too big and don't pair well with the drawer pulls...just my opinion. And your local! Was in Spring City yesterday.
