From a guy who's in the trades and who's father was too, you amaze me! Your skill, brains, creativity and hard work are incredible to see in a younger guy like yourself, let alone a life long carpenter. you're seriously a carpenter genius. thank you and keep up the awesome work.

I really like that system. First I thought you were crazy making boxes for all/ most of the drawers with box joints.

Positively genius! This idea is perfect not only for shop/work storage, but kitchen, bathroom, bed room and craft room. Thank you so much. Saw this n showed it to my brother he is refitting my craft room kitchen and jewelry drawer. Now I can dump plastic organizers that shift n crack or fall over and this will last much longer and be beautiful when finished. The kitchen it's organizing my cooking utensils, tea drawer. The added twist is it can be moved and refitted to new home just by leaving bottom grid free and refitting or remaking for new place. It also saves on packing time for stuff just leave it in boxes and pack it. All the grids are uniform. Just perfectly genius!

This is the first of your videos I've come across, but now that I've seen your style and content, it certainly won't be the last! I greatly appreciate how clearly you explain and demonstrate your techniques. And your editing represents a very creative and effective way to use time-lapse to illustrate complete series of events without taking too much time. Well done sir!

This is an amazing idea. One idea. You don't really need to prevent the boxes from moving side to side. Just back and forth in the drawer. So you only really need rows of strips in the drawers, not squares.

Watched the whole thing. Jer your videos keep getting more and more epic! Love the witty comments and moments in the video. Had me interested and laughing at the same time. I am not sure if you already have these, but you need some sponsors. People seriously need to be paying you, giving you their tools or a combination of both. Your editing ability is steadily increasing. Video content is second to none! Your demeanor is always awesome. Seriously good job sir!

Been woodworking my entire life and I have to say that on of the best ideas I've seen in a while. So....stealing that idea. Keep up the good work man after my own heart!!!🔨✏

I really like the way you do you video editing. Makes it very enjoyable to watch. No long, drawn out cutting operations, but we still get to see all the work.

This should be on prime time Channel 4 here in the UK. Simply wonderful. Entertaining and educational, what more can you ask for.

I'm not really into woodworking but I've found myself spending at least a couple of hours just watching your tutorials purely for the jokes and wonderful editing. Keep it up!

I've been bouncing ideas around like this in my head to install in a drawer or 2 in the miter saw station cabinet system. Thought to myself tonight that if I'm thinking about it then Schmidt probably is too or he's probably done it already. Well I scrolled back through your videos and here I am!

Love seeing a young person be so creative and making things. Love your drawer inserts. You have some great woodworking tools too.

Fine job. I like how putting a few moments of effort now, saves a whole lot of grief and effort over the long haul.

So. What do you build in your shop? My shop.

Jeremy - it is very cool and whimsical ... but seriously ... spending that much time to organize a few screws ??? I gave you a thumbs up ... so I guess it was enjoyable. Keep up the good un-practical projects. We need more of these in life !!!!!

i laughed when you threw that pen on there 😂🤣 great video! this needs more views. your tutorial also doubles as a public service announcement on the dangers of using a push stick 😅

First time I've viewed one of your videos. I hope that you have acquired an old kitchen sink to place on glue jobs. Along with the pen and bolt/nut combo, of course. Great work, dry humor, and good tidbits of advice. Who could ask for more?

Love your projects, presentation and sense of humor. Always well done!

Very good system to fix the boxes. INCREDIBLE AND EXCELLENT !! I see that you have manufactured several carpentry machines ..... I have no words to congratulate you Buenos Aires Argentina

You are not normal you are genius, anyone whom gives you a dislike rating is cut because you are the best.I'm cut because you are absolutely perfect at what you do.If I can't make finger joint draws like you did well that's my dream.It's another thumbs up and sincerely thank you

Really nice project, love the humor along the way!

Good idea. Tremendous amount of work though. An easier way to do this is a piece of peg board in the drawer with pins on the bottoms of the boxes.

I'm not really interested in drawers or boxes, but the entire process of cutting and crafting the items made this thoroughly satisfying to watch.

Why couldn't you cut the slots one way (front to back), glue in the long strips, then cut the slots the other way (left to right), and then glue in long strips again - removing the need for a bunch of tiny short strips to be made and installed???

wouldn't it be more practical to glue in the longer strips, then cut the grooves and glue in another set of long strips instead of fiddle in hunderds of little pieces?

Could have just glued in your first set of strips then raised your dado stack to cut the perpendicular grooves. Would have saved cutting and gluing all of those little pieces.

The amount of work you put into this is absurd. But thats something I respect. Great job. I do a bit of woodworking, but I've never even attempted a box joint because I'm 100% certain I'd screw it up, get frustrated and go do something else. Thank you for sharing this. Subscribed.

Nice idea! Way more work than I would've done. I just sprayed the bottom of my drawers with a rubber coating spray so they wouldn't slide around so much.

Hi! Can not you lay on the bottom of the box sandpaper ?! :)

All our kitchen cupboards and drawers have 'soft close' mechanisms. The only problem is that no one can tell when you're in a bad mood!!

enjoyed the video. Your explinations were clear and easily understood. I am repurposing an old tool and potting shed 16' x 24' into a woodworking shop will be using this for all my drawers.

I really like your idea. Lots of work, but it looks and works great. I really appreciate the little shortcuts you give with all your projects. It helps a lot. Thanks for the dry humour too!

Matthias and John sent me here... Great idea with this project!

Well done! Great idea and great video!

When you were pulling those drawers in and out I thought you had a Hillary fit. Nice job as always.

Great idea, as always, Jeremy. I admire your patience about those repeating steps. Thanks for sharing!

9:26 When you notice you have something just like in the video. In my case, that pencil.

I love the editing!

Oh, to be young and have the time to make this kind of luxury! Nice work. Clever.

Thanks for tip of glueing box joints, newer think about it before, will come in handy

Couldn't have you done without an entire grid in the bottom of the drawer and only have cut rows of grooves? Since there is little to no side to side movement when you open a drawer, there shouldn't be any concern of the boxes moving in such a manner. It would lessen the build time and it may be convenient to shift things from side to side. I'm talking with nearly no carpentry skills though... so you can probably just ignore me.

Jer, you're quickly becoming my fav channel. Keep up the great work and if that means quality over quantity of videos thats fine by me. Great stuff!

some really great ideas from the drawr / cabenet construction to the storage

That was an unbelievable amount of work, but you can't argue with the result. Excellent work!

Great job all round Jeremy!

the concept is nice. However, what you consider unsafe - the push stick - I totally not agree with you on ;).

Good care of usability living keeping clean and tidy will help us more effective work worthy and assurance of idea to where to reach out when we can use our own making living.nice work Shop... hope it's not noisy and keep peoples idealogy safe

It's cool that you are giving props to DiResta by wearing the shirt. Jeremy, you are one seriously talented craftsman! I learn a LOT from your videos.

Nice video. lol at 7:38 someone is watching you ;)

Why didn't you cut the grid in one direction, glue in the strips, cut the other direction (with strips), then cut the other direction and glue in the strips? That way you don't have to cut all those small sections.

I love it! though, I think doing it how you did it wouldn't be possible without your awesome table saw fence setup. also, great job on the editing: several times you showed clearly that a lot of things were repeated many times, while almost making it look like a single action, and did it in a fun way. I really enjoyed this as a vid, as well as your usual engineering prowess.

Hey Jeremy when you cut the grid in the base, only do one direction then glue in full length strips. Then cut the other direction and you can still glue in full strips.

If someone hasn't already done this, I reckon this system could be patentable, i'd look into it if i were you

Rubber matt. Friction will do the work.

Jeremy: you are a very bright and talented dude. You are also very organized.

Very well done video. Fantastic project and ideas. I wonder how many people noticed the pen and glasses for extra weight. I certainly enjoyed that. One thing I’m curious about (probably because I’m lazy) is how it would function if the strips in the drawer only went side to side instead of going both ways. Since the drawer only goes in and out that may keep them in place just as well. It just looked tedious to put in all those tiny pieces in between the long strips. I definitely mean this as a question or a curiosity not a criticism whatsoever. I am certainly no expert I just enjoy making things and learning things.

save yourself a ton of time the boxes will not shift side to side only front and back

Another really easy solution is to just open and close your drawers gently ;-)

You're clever, organized, productive, and have an amazing shop.I'm totally subscribing.

Brilliant! I now expect to see this system in plastic hit the market in no time! Very clever, indeed!

It was at 7:39 minutes of your video.....was that your Dad?

Thanks. like the ribs for grip. My setup had nested boxes so I drilled 5/8 inch holes for my fingers to pick them up. The screws fall out😳

I say again...you're a very talented young man! Keep em coming I thoroughly enjoy your videos!

Keep up the good work, and never give up the humor. Thank you, Tom

After have seen 3 or 4 billion youtube vids, I didn't expect to see something new! You have surprised me with your imaginative solutions!

If I only had your tools I could learn so many calculated precise cuts that are so hard for me to do. Dam it. Need a work shop as well.

Hello Jeremy. A quick word to say that I find myself revisiting this particular video of yours with some frequency, as I continue to seek out ideas in this area. Your design remains, in my estimation, the best all round: in concept, build, aesthetics, utility, and overall results. My plan is to utilize your approach as i refine my small shop. I see you haven't put up any new videos for a while, so thought I'd reach out to say I hope you're doing well. You are an exceptionally clever and creative guy, with a rare facility for combining precise mechanics with artful design. I -- and a great many others -- look forward to seeing whatever else you choose to put your mind to in the future. Stay well. And, as I find myself saying to more and more people in these challenging times, don't be too hard on yourself. Here's to a better 2021.

I really like the unit, the drawers and the boxes.

Way to stick it to the man on not using a box joint jig! Also, surprised you haven't tossed the bent zebra pen yet :-)

You are so very talented at such a young age. Impressive solution to a common problem! As far as having others offer easier solutions, pay them no mind. Sometimes, it's just more satisfying to do things on a more challenging level than most. We can tell you have pride of workmanship, and that's fantastic. I can relate. :)

I like the incremental precision of the table saw and its versatility. Clever stuff and another very good video.

new to your channel. Great info, ideas, humor, editing... Ill be binge watching more soon.

The grid on the bottom is a very, very good idea, man. As for the video; At the end of the introduction you say that you will 'show how to make the grid'. But then you start with making the boxes. More logical (for me, at least) would have been; 1. Introduction 2. How to make boxes that fill out any drawer (making a 2d top view pattern / layout) 3. How to size the grid accordingly 4. "Now let me show you how to make super sturdy boxes" (they work well, handle heavy loads, look clean with this setup). I think if you would order the content like that, it would keep people's attention all the way through the video. For me, personally - even though this is EXACTLY the thing I need right now - it was hard to keep my focus.. Because any time there's a table saw involved I get demotivated, since I don't have one. And if there's several minutes of perfect boxes being made in no time at all... (Very nice boxes, and good tips on making them, btw!)... all I can think is "if only I had a table saw"... Anyways - great organizational tip. I'm going to try and implement it in some way (and it could very well be that I'm the only one who has issues with the order of the content. So don't take it personal or something, ok? :) . I think your 299K subscribers prove me wrong, in any case ;))

I really like the idea of using the grid system and it's way beyond anything I could do at my current skill level, but had you considered using some stick-on rubber backing or simpler source of friction? It could save some table saw time too.

Absolutely awesome. I will let you know if I get a chance to make the same. I watched this like 4 times. So impressed. I need to finish my wood working shed first. Permits pending. 😊

I like your sense of humor.

Velcro on the bottom of the draw and boxes work well as well. Love the idea

I’ve subscribed after only watching this single video. Great job, keep up the great work.

I love this concept, will probably adopt some variation for my use, as I have been pondering some storage upgrades, thank you! I do have a simplification to offer, if I may be so audacious: We're not concerned with movement from side-to-side, as the inertia opening and closing is only going to push the little insert-boxes back-to-front or vice-versa, so all that is needed is ribs that run across each drawer. Given that design, instead of cutting grooves in the drawer-bottom and then cutting and gluing skinny rib-strips, one can make the needed ribs by "leaving" them - set up a wider (say, 3/4") dado stack to hog out the material between ribs marked out at the appropriate interval. Would use 3/16" plywood for the bottom, of course, to maintain your same designed profile and reduce the potential flex during the hogging, due to large proportion of waste removed to ribs left. Much less fiddling and waiting for glue, I think - if I get around to this I will let you know how it works out.Again, thank you - another very cool post!

This is incredibly satisfying. Like an inventory system.

Really cool idea man! I understand you were using what you had, figure 1/4" ply with grooves in the drawer with Lego extensions on the boxes might save some time. Just thinking out loud for when I have to make all these cuts!

Great little idea thanks for sharing

"No jig"? Your ingenious table fence IS the jig! Very nice work, mate!

Great job I haven't the patience I can put up with them flying around

an enjoyable watch and cool idea.still envy your saw fence! nice finger joints

What's interesting is that I use to do website dev.. we use the same idea called a grid system for layout. Pretty cool.

Just discovering you, Jeremy. You are obviously a renaissance man with tons of talent and high intelligence. Also, an excellent teaching manner. Thank so much for sharing your gifts with everyone! Also, your shop is pretty awesome!

Amazing; Such tedious work, but what a great design. Nice video sir.

Nice job! Project and presentation. What I'd give for a brightly lit, well-equipped shop like yours...

Wonderful idea thoughtfully planned and exquisitely executed. You should patent that idea, license it to a manufacturer, and then spend the royalties on more tools.

Yep, I always hated push sticks. I like the second one you had, similar to mine.

Very nice set up man! that shot at 2:20 got my brain messed up hahah! and cutting figerjoints without a jig! respect!

One thought I had whilst watching is that after you have cut the 1/16th grooves into the 1/8th ply, could you just glue the thin strips onto the bottom of the boxes? Instead of raising the grid you just cut and then lowering the bottom of the boxes? You've made a grid already in the bottom sheet - you could just put the strips on the boxes and call it done :) Otherwise, great idea. Love that you've taken one more step out of maintaining neatness! Thanks!

You are far and away one cool ass wood worker. I'm so glad I tripped over your site. I always learn something new. Thanks for the fun and insightful vids!

Good work. I think this is the first of your videos that I have watched.

Very cool idea and kudos on upgrading the "LEGO BLOCKS" for adult use.

Well ..... I have to say ..... I'm pretty impressed. There are not many guys, to impress me, but YOU did it.

Dude, that's some serious precision. You must also have a super dust collection system.

This feels so incredibly tedious... yet completely awesome. Still have fence envy....

Would like to see how you did the box joints again in more detail. Certainly loved your video!!
