My tip would be to order some more of those handles, put them in a bag with a note saying "kitchen" and never touch them unless you have to replace one. Because more often than not after 3+ years you´ll either be unable to order them anymore or there was a design change so the new ones wouldn´t match (or even fit). Always good to have a few spare handles and grips just in case so you don´t have to redo everything if one of them breaks/bends/whatever.

I live in a spec build neighborhood that is relatively new and when someone was throwing out a cabinet (in pieces) I checked the handles and, sure enough, they matched mine. Stripped those handles and brought them home for exactly that reason.

Amazing work! One suggestion for a huge quality of life improvement regarding the trash cabinet: You can route out a small gap on the bottom of the cabinet, which will be covered by the drawer front, so it will be completely invisible. It would allow you to hook your foot behind it and open the drawer without touching it when having messy hands. I've done that in my kitchen and it became easily one of the most used features. If you want to get fancy with it, you could also achieve the same with some kind of lever mechanism, having a part of the toekick board be a secret push button.

I came to the comments looking for this. Yes, louvers are individual slats that allow air flow to pass between them like a louvered door or to be operated in unison to open or close like a louvered window. The custom fluting details and integrated handles on these cabinet fronts are chef’s kiss. I’m curious to see how the larger fronts are stabilized since typical slab door/drawer fronts are veneered.

The reason I tried it is because the planner website I used to use was a bit clunky, and the support staff quit responding to customers years ago.

I was a cabinet maker in the 1980's and your method and finishing is very much like what we were doing. For some clients we could not use plywood for the larger panels. Instead we had to make up the panel from solid stock, taking pains to flip parts around to prevent warping. (Federal courts even specified solid stock make ups for library shelving!) I don't recall having any call backs on the make ups. Beautiful work. Would love the same in my own kitchen.

These are again stunning! Btw I built a 90% solid hickory vanity, still working on the drawers and doors and I went for a simple mid mod look for my 70’s house with my favorite integrated drawer pull holes. I love hickory but every screw snapped, broke into the hickory, also broke and snapped my drill bits so I bought two nice sets and those in the size I needed all broke as well! Going slow helped on occasion but it was a nightmare! Hickory cuts great on table-saws although definitely hard and dense but hates screws and drill bits. I was told to use soap or wax which I will when I get the drawers done but omg it was horrible! It ate more pocket hole screws than any other screw too, the only place I used pocket screws was for the bottom so if water ever leaked and ruined the one piece of ply I added then I was hoping to easily back them out but I just know the screws will snap drilling out

For my ground-up kitchen build I used the same "sponge tray" and my one regret was not building a "sacrificial face" for the hinges; I used the exact same ones you did, and I really felt the connection ended up weaker than I like. It will be a point of failure in the (relatively) near future. If I had installed a 1/2 thick strip of plywood on the hinges, then attached the door front to the plywood, I think it would have worked out MUCH nicer. But all in all, looks amazing!

I used to use that same tape technique on the router table. The downfall, it would shift the case as the tape stacked up (not to big a deal on a cove bit you use though.) You definitely want to install measuring tape at the ends of your router table that way your fence will be wayyyyyyyyy easier to adjust and setup with everything you are routing.

Kitchen carcasses has been made like this (or very similar ) for decades. The major difference is that we use adjustable legs to make levelling across a long area easier.

Floating toe kicks... this is the way. Great video. I think your louver concept is perfect and adds a lot visually as well as tying the various elements together. Watching you chamfer those thin edges made me nervous, because routing is like the forward pass: three things can happen, and only one of them is good. My final thought to this comment is, whoever makes those plastic shims you use must absolutely love you because you're clearly keeping them in business.

Your cabinets look great. I like the details you built into them. I apologize, but I am going to be that guy. The semicircular groves you routed into the drawer faces are not called louvers. The correct term is fluting. Back when I was building houses, I would build various parts of the house in a CAD program for the clients who couldn't visualize the end product from sample pieces and reference photos. That note system seems like it would do a similar job with less effort. Women tend not to be able to accurately visualize how it will look from just blueprints and small sample pieces for some reason.

Im a Dutch kitchen desinger and I'm watching your work with so much mixed emotions. The woodwork is incredible. The louvers are beautiful and you're using the proper rails and hinges (european ;-) ) But than, I saw you working with these toe-kicks, cut out a corner in the side panel, putting the back of the cupboard all the way against the wall without leaving any space behind it, having the handles on doors on a different direction than in the drawers, using panels of so many different sizes on a kitchen which is barely 2,5 meters long.. Devil is in the details but I really think you can make your kitchens that much greater if you just had some little tips on things which are quite common here. Once again, your work is amazing. Technically there isnt much out there which matches the quality and detail I see. There are some tips however which makes you life a hole lot easier when installing the kitchen

Beautiful cabs. A thought. If you tape the edging and then nail it, you simply fill the hole in the tape created by the nail gun. Then pull the tape off the route and sand.

I have the same handles for my cabinets but in satin nickel. They catch all sorts of crumbs and get finger prints on them. This is probably because my counter should stick out further than the handles. Not planned well on my part.

One alternative to wax is to use liquid soap. Note that this _might_ act as a "screw-lock" over time (Not sure... the screws certainly did not come out easily in the one case where I needed it, *but* they were also in the wood for about 10y before the disassembly, so, it might just be that the screws were eaten up by corrosion by that time), but I've done it when I had issues with screws snapping off when going into something, and it certainly greatly reduces the tendency to snap off.

Do you ever have issues with drawer fronts warping after you cut them out of large panel glue ups? Essentially tension being released in the wood? or do you order a specific type of sawn lumber for drawer fronts?

Micheal, this kitchen is fabulous. For a small kitchen, you have utilized every square inch of it. And that is very hard to plan out. I like you, only use separate toe kicks. I don’t understand why cabinet makers use integrated toe kicks, they are hard to set each cabinet and they just don’t look good. Was a cabinet and furniture maker for many, many years and your kitchen would be beautiful in the most expensive home out there

32:21 I don’t understand why a 6 inch cabinet has to be considered a tiny cabinet. Personally I think it’s more than adequate and really it depends on how you use it. Edit: for the record… I think it’s more about the cabinet’s personality anyway
