What a really nice piece (even with these strange woodworking materials and techniques like oak, dowel joinery, and rabbets 😆). That thing you called a "Whoops" is what I call a normal, everyday occurrence in my shop... you recovered like a champ and that's all that matters. No one will ever know except you and a hundred thousand viewers. I really like the "Aged Barrel" stain and the little reveal at the bottom is a top-notch detail.

Nice design and concept. Very inspirational what you come up with. Could you have just replaced the existing cup hinges with Everbrite 165-degree full overlay hinges available at Home Depot? They also have the soft close feature. In the context to prevent the "reconstruction" of drawer box and additional filler pieces? Door would have swung wider giving more clearance for the drawer/door interface junction. Great demonstration of perseverance to overcome an oversight during the build process to get back on track. Thanks for another great build.

@WoodshopDiaries Жыл бұрын

Thanks so much! I'm sure there may have been another hinge option, but I had these on hand and was trying to finish up as quickly as possible so I could get the video out--so I just used what I had on hand vs ordering and waiting for something else. In the future, I'll probably think ahead to order different hinges for a project like this before building. In my mind, I just swore that when I've installed overlay doors in the past, they completely cleared the opening when they swung out, but I just didn't bother to double check that was actually the case before getting started haha.

@troygoggans5495 Жыл бұрын

Hello Shara, I also hate using a router by hand so I built a router table and cabinet and now route rabbets and dados without the angst. I also now router the back of each piece separately before assembly and do not have to worry about chiseling out the corners for backing board. I also got caught with the European hinges thing and saw that you would not like the small strip for slides. Me, I left the smaller strip because I did not want to pull drawer out again and just glued small strips to case the same height as drawer. Your idea about mounting drawer knobs lower was a great idea. Also one more point about router table, I can setup and route my own trim pieces for cabinets and it makes it easier to make picture frames.

@WoodshopDiaries Жыл бұрын

That sounds like a great set up with your router table! And also a great idea about adding small strips instead of removing and replacing the drawer spacer blocks. Thanks for sharing!

@@WoodshopDiaries Shara, you are not wrong. There are hinges that will open an overlay door wide so drawers can be pulled out. My dad couldn’t find any for the pantry door (a regular interior door), but he put them on a large lower kitchen cabinet door. The doors swing out wide past the frame so the drawers slide out without catching.

I wanted to see the moment you realized your mistake😂. Although you seem pretty level headed so you probably would have handled it much better than I would have... Another great project and thanks for sharing the mistake. That's part of woodworking here on earth. I expect no mistakes up in heaven and probably some angels to do the routering.😂

Change your concealed hinges to a 180° hinge.. easy fix

There are different types of such door hinge insets. One of them allowing for such kind of situations. At least over here in Europe. How comes I know? Make a guess! 😂

Great videos and builds as usual. Just out of curiosity, aren’t there door hinges that would extend out and not interfere with your sliding draw? Thought I just saw the Workshop Companion’s last video that he explained there were 3 different types. Regardless, you learn the most through mistakes and you corrected the issue. Good going!!!

Awesome project. One question, Would cherry stain work just as well?

When do you use dowels vs pocket screws? Are there trade rule? Thanks. I enjoy your videos very much.

@WoodshopDiaries Жыл бұрын

There’s no “rule” as to when to use which. It’s just personal preference. In many cases when I’m using hardwood, I use dowels only because hardwood requires fine threaded pocket hole screws and I don’t usually keep them stocked in my shop and never want to drive to town to get any haha. But in some cases, I’ll use them in any kind of wood if it’s in a part of the project that the pocket hole would be visible if I used pocket holes. I’m any case where the pocket hole would be hidden or I’m using plywood or soft woods, pocket holes are my go to.

Do you have a link to the edge banding you use? I can never seem to get my edge banding to completely stick the first time and have to go back and re-iron spots. Not sure if it’s me or maybe just some cheap edge banding. Lol

Can the shelf be flush with the closed door or does it have to be short of the door to allow it to open?

@WoodshopDiaries Жыл бұрын

It can be flush to the back side of the door if you wanted. I just liked it inset some to give extra dimension

@thomashewitt5274 Жыл бұрын

@@WoodshopDiaries Thanks! I built some cabinets with the intention of the doors overlapping the frame but when I did the corner cabinet I didn't give enough space for the doors to open fully, so my fix is to try to make inset doors for them instead. The shelf is flush to the inside of the face frame and I wasn't sure if I needed it to be back further for clearance.

I'm with you with disliking routers. I've made more errors in my projects with routers than with any other tool. One thing I've learned is to assume I will F up, and to put as many guards as possible to control the movement of the router. Also to use lots of fingerboards with a router table.
