nominating you for BEST B-ROLL IN WOODWORKING VIDEOS !

Great idea Mike. The space under stairs is usually not utilized well and you truly changed that.

this project has given me a great idea for rolling shelving units for under my basement stairs. Once again, you are the man, Michael!!

Don’t know if or when you will see this. I enjoy your videos on the Tool Tansu you talk about putting screws further in from the end and side to stop blowout. Being 73yrs old I learnt long time ago to insert wall plug into the wood, MDF or what ever you are using, but you have to make sure the two slots in the raw plugs face the thickest part or wood, so when they open out they will push against the widest part not the thinnest part. Then you can put screws in without the problem of blow out, but make sure raw plugs only have two slits not four and some do. Chris Old English Man

One thing I've discovered for someone with a smaller shop is that everything should be in a drawer, and if possible, an overlay drawer, or if in a cabinet, a cabinet with a door, rather than just stuff on shelves. It will GREATLY reduce your cleanup, as sawdust will always find the nearest open horizontal surface to cling to.

It is a pleasure to see someone else that isn't afraid to use tools that are not florescent green!

making the separate toe kick/base, leveling that and THEN putting the cabinets on is brilliant

I would love to see a “two years on” piece, reflecting on how this corner of the shop has worked out for you Mike. It’s certainly inspired me! Hope all safe and well.

Great dance moves! Even better shop storage!

There will NEVER be a time where I am not impressed with a Mike Farrington build! amazing as always!

Thanks for posting. Very pragmatic organization and well-conceived selection of tools for small pro shop. Your terse, detailed presentation much appreciated.

I so enjoy anything you produce. Thank you Mike

Well done Mike! Really like seeing your process and the finished product showcasing how you set it all up.

Thanks for all the great detail on this build...very helpful!

I love your work Mike, keep at it! You're going to be one of the great woodworker youtubers of our era

I really appreciate your videos. Your approach(what we see) to projects is something I try to mimic.

Very nice set up. It always helps when you know where your tools are. Plus it helps to keep the shop clean

Well done. An excellent use of space for tool storage is a thing of beauty.

As usual, your work is well engineered, functional in use, and attractive to look at. Well done, Mike. I particularly like your use of the hinges and how easy they are to true up.

Really nice organization for the workshop, i've always wanted to build shelving under stairs. It's a great use of space. Thanks for the video.

Love your motorcycle lift for your work table, a real back saver!

Looks pretty darn good for MDF. It’s also a great use of space for your most-used tools. Great work!

Glad to see the two pair safety glasses. One for you and one for the Apprentice!! Great job, Mike!

You are my favorite youtube creator to watch... your depth of expertise shows through in your project work and commentary. Keep 'em coming!

Holy crap, that's a lot of routers! Beautiful work. Nice to see your process.

Great use of that space Mike and another killer video!

I like the separate toe kick. Good thinking! So simple.

Excellent build video and brilliant crisp narration.

The three hole drill gave me a little woodworking cabinet woody. lol Loved seeing the whole process of these cabinets. Those gigs were really cool and wasn't aware of them before. I also like the door handles too. Turned out great...thanks for sharing!!

Your videos are very inspiring. I hope more people find them.

I absolutely LOVE this project. So well thought out and executed. Different depths to the drawers for specific uses and an electric outlet which is always handy. The only thing it needs is some backs for the open parts 'cause you just know that things will fall back there ;-)

Fantastic Mike! I build my toe kicks separately as well, I have been wanting to try those 20mm drawer adjusters. As always keep it up dude. 619😎

Man, i wish i would have watched your independent toe kick tip about 12 shop cabinets ago - so smart!

So envious of this shop, the space is just amazing. Makes me think living in our area has draw backs :)

Looks really nice! Great job Mike

This looks fantastic. Great use of that space.

Another excellent build, Mike. Thanks for the pro tips 😃👌👏👏👏👏👏

These are better cabinets than I have in my kitchen. Wow you are awesome

Great job again Mike, I always look forward to your videos

you love what you do and this seems to be your job! many congratulations!

Your videos are great and full of detail! I really like how we can see your cabinet making experience even in your shop pieces. Most KZfaqrs don't seem to have the experience, so all of their builds are just DIY level. I'm looking to start a cabinet business when I get out of the Navy and would love to see a shop tour explaining your tools and workflow. Also, I'd love to see some more videos of customer jobs (like a kitchen, bathroom, or closet build). I know videos could be taxing on your workflow and profitability, but your videos are awesome and inspiring and informative for me (and probably others on here) interested in cabinetmaking. Thanks!

Fantastic use of space!

It does look really cool. I love seeing other makers tools, especially when they match my own, or are something i've been wanting. Thanks also for the tour, it's always good to see how others do things, regardless of wether we do it the same, good ideas come. Thank you.

Wow. So simple but yet so beautiful. Makes me hate my shop lol. I feel inspired, thanks.

Nice project Mike! Looks great and easy to use also nice use of space. Thanks for sharing your video, it too was enjoyable to follow along.

Sweet! And what a workshop!

As always very creative, a great job and you make it look so easy.

Great job Mike. I love the shop

I really really enjoyed, thank you so much 👍😊 Greeting from Egypt

I love your tow kick idea. My next project is a bathroom vanity. This solves a problem I have been trying to solve. THANKS!

Perfect, really shows off your skills.

Always love your videos including the humor

Amazing job yet again.

yeah it's really cool and most beautiful cabinets. almost people's shop or the stuff looks like a junk shop, but yours is cleanliness.

That is fantastic. Well done.

like this video way much and definitely learn a lot from you and the neatness in the build really commendable.

Love the minivan, wish we could get them here in Ireland, I’m in the middle of a similar project and I love your template for the drawers, great project thanks for the tips

Awesome. Really enjoy watching your shows.

Agree with everyone, these videos are awesome. You are convincing me to revisit using biscuits, seems more refined than pockets and liners.

Once again quality workmanship Mike...loving the apprentice 😉😉😉👍👍👍

Love your shop builds dude!

Nicely done sir! ....and so much room for activities!

Probably the best woodworking Chanel on youtube

Great workshop I am so envious I have a single garage, too many tools and not enough room to work. Great job on the storage cabinets. I love your videos, keep them coming.

Good video Mike thanks, epic 4TH shots hope you had a good day. Albert from England

absolutely love your work! I was going to build my own first cabinet today and -since I remembered this video- decided to watch it again to maybe pick up some more tricks... turns out the kind of cabinet I‘m about to make is done in the first 2.5 seconds of this clip 😂 I‘ll be happy if I manage it before it‘s time to pick up the kids from kindergarten 😂 Not surprising, but still nice to see how easy this looks when it‘s done by someone who knows what he‘s doing! cheers mate! bruno ps a few months ago I built my own toolboxes from your makita toolboxes video! Made a much rougher job of it, but it‘s soooo awesome to work out of them!!! (even though I‘m only using them for renovating or helping friends out..) thanks for the inspiration!!

What a calming voice!

Great job looks awesome 👍👏

Great use of space, nice job.👍

Such a wonderfully boring voice. And I mean that as you the biggest compliment ever. I love your videos and narration. Thanks again!

Love all your videos, Mike. Have been binge watching for the past couple of days in my free time. I appreciate your teaching style and openness with technique and rationale. I am a professional carpenter, and business has been great but I am a beginner in all honesty. Always learning and seeking to improve my skills. Yours is probably the best channel I've come across for learning various aspects of the trade. I am an unapologetic perfectionist, but this work is humbling and my mistakes in every project are like neon signs shining so brightly that I can't believe my clients don't immediately see them and throw me out of their houses. But I press on to improve and learn every day. Seeing your set up and your workflow is simultaneously inspiring and deflating. I got a rather late start in the business and I wonder how I would ever get to your level of organization and understanding of the scope of my projects. But I'm in the middle of the sea and the only way home is to swim, so I swim. I would love to hear you describe your beginnings and how you learned, including the various shops you've inhabited through the years and your accumulation of tools, especially the evolutionary order of the main tools, from the tools you started with to the tools you have today. I know that was wordy, but I've thought this throughout all of your videos. It'd be really cool if that happened, but if not I will happily watch whatever videos you put out with rapt attention. For what it's worth, this is the longest comment I've ever written on a video in the history of the internet. Thanks again for taking the time to make these videos; I can't tell you how helpful they are.

Great project and well documented.

Super clean. Inspired. Thanks.

Thanks for taking the time to add tool links

That looks amazing Mike! I could see that in a master closet or in a loft apartment under the stairs.

Another great video buddy! keep them coming! I always love seeing when you have new material out. I always watch them and pick up little hints and tricks! :) Im just trying to move over to my new workshop so its nice to get some ideas on shop storage. Great work mate! nice one man!

Awh was hoping the staircase would have been made with this -I love DIY videos

Mike - great job, and super story about this project. Congrats! ;)

Great work. It's a joy to see the entire process from design to production and then installation to utilization. The stairs are really cool. Very elegant. I'd love to see a video where you discussed building and designing them. They would need the addition of risers to comply with code in my neck of the woods, but I find the cleanliness of this design, without the common stringer, so appealing. Thanks!

Very nicely done. I really like your shop! I too hold on to things after a project. I’ve a large supply of eclectic pieces of wood ... 😂 I put things on wheels as my ‘shop’ is limited to the garage and the Mrs. likes her car warm and dry during our Alaskan Winters ... but having things on wheels makes it easier to get to work.

Nicely done. To add more storage in the area is put drawers in some steps on the stairs if ever wanted to. When I lived in Japan was so nice to have that.

That was a pleasure to watch!

Very well done. Thank you.

That Blum guide is really nice. As a low-budget woodworker I might build something equivalent out of plywood for next time I need to install drawers. Probably won't be adjustable but it should accomplish the same goal.

It seems like its going to be a bonus for the shop thumbs up my friend

cada vez me gustan mas tus trabajos, eres muy bueno. Saludos desde España

AMAZING AWESOME! I wandered around to lookup for some other info, and different projects, I was surprised to see some people with a lot of talent, but their videos are just that, to showcase their talent, yours are very different, so much information is offered in your videos, compared to the other ones, and the format you use is pretty much the best I have seen on KZfaq, I think that the best compliment I can give you is "you made me work much better than before! And finally understand the technical part when you explain what you do and WHY!". Love your jokes too, now my wife refers to you as Mr. Perfect (lollll).

Dude, you are THE KING of the woodworking dad jokes! Seriously, I queue up your vids on my TV and leave them running all day. Love them!

These are great videos. My husband and I had about 30 minutes after "virtual learning", and we watched your channel! Your apprentice is absolutely adorable. You are indeed a fantastic craftsman, and thank you for taking the time to share this with all of us. Be Well!

It's always a great feeling watching you build superb stuff...I smile when I see how long the video is coz I love enjoying your creativity...learn so much with your skills...once again a very nice build sir...enjoyed watching every second...plz keep posting things back to back...I eagerly wait for your videos.... #5stars!!!

How is it possible to do such fine work?! I'm really amazed! Congratulations on the build. I have really enjoyed watching this. :)

Very impressive. Your shop looks great also.

I love ur shop

this hinges are made for doors that stops on cabinet frame but u can add little wood stop block on the top

One of the only people I watch on KZfaq that gets my full attention everytime. This was a great build and a good use of the space. The only bit I couldn't live with was the finish height of the drawers was different. I would had to have lined them up so they were the same height. That is just me thou and doesn't detract from the great build.

Very nice and well done

Great video as always Mike. Really enjoy your stuff. Keep the dry sarcastic commentary coming please. I realise there may be other factors in your project scheduling but know I for one am eagerly awaiting your replacement assembly top build. No pressure obviously...

It's pretty clean for such a roar job

Awesome build!!

Nice job Mike.
