Hi,i don't do so much these days as i'm retired but the kids still keep me busy,like yourself i'm a carpenter,i was just thinking how much easier it was to level the units when i got a laser,i was kicking myself for not buying one years earlier,haha.all the best,loving you videos.

Del it’s always a pleasure watching you fit kitchens, always informative and some cracking little tips 👏👏👏

Once you get a set of those airbags you always questions yourself as to how you managed with out them, so handy for various things. Not sure about you but I always get a lot of satisfaction after fitting a kitchen, I think it’s my favourite thing after roofing! 👌🏻

Really enjoy your videos. Best part is how you talk through all the steps, and know what to edit out and what to include. Worst is when a video cuts out some step like clamping something to make installing x easier. Top job, keep ‘‘em coming!!! Edit: the pva on the legs is a lovey touch

Great work Del, looking forward to part two. Another way to the the end panels, flush on top is to fix a KD Block into top of panel and let it sit on top of the unit, perfect every time.

Really nice job. Love to see end panels notched out on the tower unit so that the plinth can run continuously. Great vid :)

Fantasic video Del !!! you make it look so easy , cant wait for part 2 ........thanks Del

I do love your videos Del, they have a unique style than many others, your so down to earth a true naturalist and explain everthing from roofing to 2nd fixing very well. I love Skillbuilder and Robin Clevett's work aswell, and if it wasn't for them I may not of found and followed your vids. But yours I have to say have a more raw natural feel to them, which I think makes you stand out and a big favourite to everyone from professionals to armatures. Keep on keeping on🙏 Much respect Dale 🙂

Love the foot under the tall unit technique Del…. Do exactly the same. Doesn’t everyone? 😂 thanks for keeping the vids coming 👍

Thanks for the video Del always happy to see new video notification for your Chanel 👏🏻👍🏻

Great video Del. Looking forward to part 2.

"We all make mistakes!" Said the hedgehog climbing off the hair brush....Nice one...

Nice Del Boy. 👊🏻. Great to see a quick re cut on the panel. Not all first time wonders. 😂 🙌🏻

Great video as always Del keep them coming. Cheers.👍👍

Nice solid job Del 💪🏼. Love that corner detail 👌🏼🧱👍🏽

Nice to see your kitchen units are well thought out and fit better than the roof trusses. Like that corner piece. Just installed a flat pack kitchen with the same corner detail only they gave you nothing to transition the corner. Had to fabricate a bit myself. The other thing I see they still do in UK is the stand off for pipes etc. behind the unit which can also be used to scribe. We don't get that. The backs are flat to the wall. Fine on a new all square house but useless on an old Queenslander. The other thing we often get is wrapped panels and doors. They don't like being scribed. If you cut through the wrap it wants to peel back. It just falls off like the skin it is. Again not good for old out of level houses. You would think the sheet would be stuck to the board but every one I have had to cut just peels off. Don't do many kitchens here. Kitchen fitting is a Trade on its own. They call them cabinet makers. Being English this makes me think of bespoke furniture makers not guys that make chipboard cupboards. But each to their own.

nice one.....really liked the idea of tht corner piece usually I hate doing them as they can be very annoying and fiddily to get it correct, my goodness that was a precise cut for those pipes, you seem to know what your doing....😉

Nice work Del. Bloody hate end panels. God knows how many times I’ve went on and forgot about them lol

Hi Del another great video again, when it comes to fitting kitchens/wardrobes I never have a tool pouch on me in case I slip/or someone drops and it surprised me and I could turn sharply and possibly damage the item's. also, I noticed that you have only 2 cordless drills to hand and changing bits from one to another to me is not preferred way I would work, this an observation only I have at least 4 on go at all times. Keep them coming, great to watch.

I wish someone would post a video showing an install where the walls are all running off and the room is not square and explain how to get round these problems

ive just started a kitchen this week del. howdens kitchen. when i use a laser to level up i set the laser 20mm above what i want the cabinets to finish at. then i mark a little scrap offcut of whatever is handy. by the same 20mm. then use that each corner. works so well. also have you seen those kitchen fitters mate things? they are absolutely class for manouvering tower cabinets

Excellent videos well talked through to understand

Excellent job mate 👍

I can’t begin to imagine the effort taken to work and film/edit these. Enjoyed every bit of content. Bravo Sir. 👊

EXCELLENT!!!!!!

I must get a set of them air bags, I have two viking arms that are great for lifting the units but no use to reach the back of the units. I was curious to know what size spacer you used to set the gables of the tall unit? Lovely job. That corner piece looks fantastic

Great video. Have you got a video on integrated dishwasher end panel I've got an integrated dishwasher on the end of a run of base units and was wondering the best way to install the right side panel to the floor i can fix it to the worktop and wall but the floor is something I've never done any ideas I'd be grateful.

Good quality honest carpentry there 👏

Legend del nice one mate 👍👍

Great video. I'm just starting to fit my kitchen and was wondering about end panels at the junction with the plinths. I see you've cut the end panels at the bottom to take the plinths in this video but in other videos of yours you don't. Is it just a personal preference thing? For me I'll be fitting LVT click flooring after the kitchen is in so the end panels without the cut out wouldn't work I think.

Great Video Bud!

great video again

I did kitchens for 8 yrs Del! I was thinking about the 2-3 times I never had to scribe a tall wall panel or check measure guy didn’t just allow extra 25 mm on for fitting! Thinking you lucky bugger! Then 2 seconds later… ‘ I might have to shave this one a couple of mm…’ 😂👍🏻 Awesome kitchen company! Ours SUCKED! Bare cabinets! You had to hinge all doors on site, even make up drawer boxes and fit runners etc. it was a nightmare! Then fitting this crappy 6.5 mm ‘Granit’ sheet on top of either existing laminate ( makeover) or particle board if new. Miter front edge, colour match an epoxy and glue front edges on. If you could think about the hardest way possible to install a kitchen, that was their ‘specialty’ And as always though, you got GOOD! And FAST! and see if you can guess what they did about your install fee the quicker you got…🤔

Happy New year Del all the best

Top job Del Boy. I always worked to; measure twice, scrap the piece, buy another, try again.

👍 👌

👍☘️🇮🇪😊 looking forward to seeing the finished job , you have to be so careful with that high gloss finish 😩

👍👍👍

I'm starting to say to myself on site now.....what would Del do?!! Top video as always, cheers Del ;0)

I was taught to drill a clearance hole through one of the pieces of wood to be screwed together but I'm not sure people do that now when they're drilling pilot holes. What are your thoughts on this? Really enjoying your videos by the way.

Nice one Del, those new type kitchen legs that come with quality kitchens, are so much better than the old ones? 🚴👍

Top work as usal del down to earth chippy who admits when you make a mistake so true we all do its how you can get out of making mistake and fixing it is the winner .like the way you have no ego like some chippys on you tube 😀

You are just a cool geezer I could watch you all day because you are teaching what you love to do. Do you have to put end panels on Del wanting to help somebody do their kitchen to save money.

hah im just catching up with this vid... i get plans like that off howdens. people giving joke grief like that is class. i ordered a taxi special from my local indian restaurant/ take away the other day. got it home and when i unwrapped it someone had written GINGE on the lid of the carton haha

🤘😎🤘

Hi Del, why do you cut off (or notch out) the bottoms of the end panels either side of the tall unit? Is it just personal preference that you like to see the plinths run seamlessly beneath all the units? I haven’t seen anyone do that before, usually the end panels run all the way to the floor. Cheers!

Hi Del, is this kitchen being fitted in the large bungalow where you did the videos on the roof trusses, studwork and window boards a while back? You'll crack it out easily mate. 👌👌👌

Noob here, isn’t the tiling situation making it harder for things like the end panels to sit flat? Any reason why you didn’t tile after units were down? I understand that not tiling fully saves money

If I have this correct, there is a niche formed where the corner unit is met by the returning cooker housing, and part of the worktop will be contained therein. I don’t see any wall units on the plan. I accept that there are always limiting factors and compromises in kitchen design, but would you say that this arrangement is uncommon in your experience ? This is not a criticism. I welcome any comments about this. Looking forward to Part 2, thank you, Del.

Nice work and a lot of tips learned from you.. I've remodeled my kitchen last weekend.. and enjoyed it.. Can you provide us about the cabinet carcass measurements please..

Hi Del great work mate, did you say you leave 502mm from corner post to edge of unit? I always go 500mm, is there a teasin way you make it 502mm ?

Del what made you buy a dewalt drill when the rest of your gear is Makita? Just wondered because of the batteries. Love this video mate, looking forward to part 2 👍

Great job Dell, but mate, Plumber should’ve lagged those pipes.

You need to get them fitters mate dolly it be so much easy to handle those units

Don’t worry Del come January / February there will be loads of outside jobs. Additionally there is no way we are going to have two summers in a row. Edit: Do you think there is mileage in using a laser to set unit height? Question not trolling of course 😊

Great work Del, is the kitchen from DIY KITCHENS, we're doing our kitchen next spring and they seem well made and great value for money. Looking forward to part 2. 👍🏻

Del, I got handles to fit to my daughters kitchen. What handle jig would you recommend please? Oh and have you got a link to those airbags please?

Who supplied the kitchen? I’ve not seen those carcasses before

Hi, why does your tall unit need to have end panels either side of it?

who is the kitchen supplier?

10mins 50 secs in and i've just noticed the best idea, cannot beleive i've struggled fitting those tall end panels in the past.😃 Such a simple way to support them and stop them sliding down. Nice one Del!!! On a side note, are your trainers/boots safety shoes or not. Trying to find some safety boots/trainers that are compfy and cannot find anything. What are those you're wearing please? Keep up the good work

Who makes these cabinets?

Don’t like position of tall unit 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿👍

How tall are u?

What make is the kitchen big guy. 🤔

To much chatting.

The air bags, I bought a pair from Lidl a few years back, £6.99, thought give them a try, to my surprise they're still going strong, unbelievable, nice job Del 🪚 👍
