I love building cabinets. Nice to see all the gables are plywood and not pressboard. I always talked clients into custom because all the major producers here use pressboard, and 10-20% of the cabinets end up with edges and corners blown out of them before they're even delivered.

The only place I've found MDF to be a reasonable replacement for solid/plywood in cabinet making is in the raised panel for a paint-grade cabinet door. It's not ideal IMO but can help with more budget-oriented projects. With most lowers being drawer bases these days the amount of wear and tear, water, etc on the panels is reduced. Though I still suggest using a solid panel for the sink bases.

In 40 years of carpentry, probably several hundred kitchens, I’ve never installed base cabinets first. For a couple reasons, 1) way too easy to damage the base cabinets while working above them either by tool belts, belt buckles, dropping a drill or driver or level ( because you’re working above and gravity does happen), 2) it’s hard on the back to be leaning over and pushing up on a larger unit. Layout isn’t anymore difficult, but the chance of the problems described above is way less imho

Eventually they lost their install contractors who they had been working with, I got roped into doing installs, which I didn;t like, fighting traffic, parking, dealing with the security of high rise buildings, homeowners etc. A combination of not being properly trained for installs and not even being paid enough to buy my own personal tools I was not happy, then the economic turn down of 2006 happened and I was laid off for about a year and I found a job as apprentice Moldmaker/Toolmaker and its been good to me.

I worked as a real estate agent for a while, and in my neck of the woods there are a lot of flippers. And the number one way to tell if the flipper did a good job is to look at the kitchen cabinets. If the doors on the cabinets are hung well, with consistent reveals, and plumb and level, then 9 1/2 times out of 10, the whole project will have been done well. But if the kitchen cabinets look terrible, everything else in the house will have been done as quickly and cheaply as possible.

Have you ever tried using french cleats to hang cabinets with? The video I watched allows you to set the french cleats level on the wall and then level on the cabinets. Then all you have to do is hang the cabinets on the french cleats. They allow you to move the cabinets side to side a little to make small adjustments and when you get them exactly lined up you just run a screw or two through one of the french cleats to make certain no one accidentally lifts them up or an earthquake bounces them off. But if they need to be removed for some reason you can just remove the screws into the french cleat and another attached cabinet and then lift it up a little bit and pull it off.

@oldtimefarmboy6172 жыл бұрын
@@kevindesilva4588 They would cause you to lose a couple inches of depth if you did not make you cabinets a couple of inches deeper to make up for it. Making the outer sides two inches deeper is easy and cabinets that stick two inches further out would be insignificant to the average person. A french Cleat would be very easy to hold up to a wall and level while attaching it. Then all you would have to do is lift the cabinets up and hang them on the cleats, the french cleats would hold them against the wall while other cabinets are put into place and hold them all up while you fasten all of the cabinets together, if more than one, nudge the cabinets sideways so the are exactly lined up, then run one or two screws through the cleats per cabinet to anchor them. The alternative is lifting the cabinet against the wall and manually holding it there while getting it level and in the perfect position and then making certain that you get the screws (or nails) driven through and into a stud to secure it to a wall. Or building an adjustable brace that would bridge the gap between the floor and the cabinet or the gap between the lower cabinet and the upper cabinet to hold it in place while being adjusted, leveled, and secured. Sounds like an insignificant amount of extra work and material for a greater benefit. If the cabinets have to be removed for some reason in the future, like getting into the wall behind them, then all you have to do is remove one or two screws per cabinet and lift them up and inch and pull them out, then when you finish you can hang them back on the french cleats and put the screws back in.

Mr. Wadsworth I appreciate your guidance especially with kitchen cabinets! I am in Los Angeles, and in late 2019 I hired a cabinet maker from La Quinada who was "just starting out with his business" and thought to hire him to help along his business. BIG MISTAKE. The end result? $27,000 lost on white oak cabinets, with two different types of varnish used. Of the many lessons I'll share just one: The guy did NOT use a jig to make hardware holes. When I asked him, his reply was "Oh I've been doing this for years, all I need is my measuring tape." Of course, some of the hardware handles are crooked. So people, MAKE SURE your contractor uses a jig for such detail. If they refuse, fire them and find another. Mr. Wadsworth was right about the only leverage being money.

That cabinet pull jig is great. I bought one and it worked really well. The only problem I had was I decided to reuse the tape I was marking off the center lines. Well, one drawer I didn't tear off the line from the last cabinet and accidentally centered on the wrong like. So, other than me being an idiot, the jig worked perfectly. Luckily the mis-drilled hole was on a bottom cabinet so you never even notice it, which is why I still haven't fixed it. lol

I set some uppers in a utility room with a automotive floor jack and a 2x4 T-ee, not pretty but it got the job done. That little cabinet jack is one of those "why didn't I think of that?" moments.

We are moving to the Roseburg area, so I drove by the house to see it, and it didn't disappoint. Actually, it looked better in person.

Small tip for You guys. Put a part of old measuring tape or ruler on yours upper jack so you get quick cabinet high readout. No need to use personal tape each time you put another pice on the jack. Greetings/pozdrowienia from Poland.

I like that upper jack, but we use Fast Cap 3rd Hand. Also that is the best Handle Jig, hands down.
