Cabinetry Basics Part 2 - Screws or Nails? [video 436]

I get a lot of questions about cabinet and carcass construction and in this series I aim to answer them all; in Part 1 I discussed the fundamentals of construction, and here in Part 2 I'm going through the most basic methods of joining the sides to the top & base - but should that be screws, or nails?
Part 1 of this series is here - • Cabinetry Basics Part ...

general tip ... if using a nail gun, stick some painters tape on first. nail through the tape. fill without removing tape. let dry. remove tape. only tiny areas need to be sanded.

Same for any cuts especially if you have a blade that isn’t for finish cuts. Put painters tape down then draw a line on top of the tape. Cut along the line over the tape when you pull off the tape you will have a cut good enough for any cabinetry projects

Pocketholes are designed for hardwood and make it such that you don't screw directly into the end grain, you go from a face grain to a face grain. I do agree they're messy and are easiest to use in places that will stay hidden, but its worth noting why they are available.

The problem comes when they are done on plywood/MDF/particle/... They don't give a better join but they leave the "scars".

Personally my teacher had us make rabbets and dados. Then glue and nail them together.

@wdnspoon Жыл бұрын

@@Kameron-The-Crafter Dados are wonderful, but the main reason I used them on my last kitchen reno was because my opa was helping me and insisted they were a better joint. He was right, but with a good glue and screw to clamp it down, I probably could've built it in 1/5th the time. We were using birch ply, which is a good choice for dados vs MDF or OSB where that'd be nonsensical.

Good job! Two ideas come to mind: 1. Using a second set of bench dogs with a spacer to get the corner arrangement steady. Spacer being two wedges with sandpaper glued on. This way they can be easily adjusted to any thickness while checking the corner's angle. Alternatively use a clamp and board as varaible stop. 2. Taping the second horizontal board to the first one in a T-formation. This way you have a plain to put the side board on at exactly 90°. The tape could go around the T-formation all the way like a belt so it does not rely on glueing and is strong.

I use pocket holes and I agree they leave a nasty mark on the wood. I would like to know how much weight you can put on a small cabinet. It would be great to know since I am always afraid of the putting lots of things in the cabinet just to find out that they will fail. Thanks.

This is an excellent series of videos, with everything clearly explained and there is information here for woodworkers with every level of experience......you would have made an excellent teacher! On the subject of pocket holes, I quite like them for some jobs, but I am always wary of using them with sheet materials, because the screw is aimed directly at the outer corner of the carcase, and you have to be very careful not to blow out the edge....or perhaps I'm just clumsy! I do like to use them in thicker solid wood and have found you can make the scars almost invisible in pine/whitewood by gluing in a piece of 9mm dowel and cutting it off with a flush cut saw (all my workbenches are built that way). Can't wait for instalment no.3 of this series👍

When I bought my pocket hole jig (Kreg) I also bought the plug cutter which allows you to make plugs of the same material to fill the pocket holes. The result is almost invisible if one takes care to match the grain if using textured board.

@grumpywiseguy5992 3 жыл бұрын

Just a great series Peter!!! I use an 18 gauge Ryobi nailer like the one you use. The only issue is how heavy it is. I also use Grex pneumatic nailers with a small, battery powered air compressor also by Ryobi. Still totally portable, the compressor is quiet, has plenty of power for nailers, and no power cord. The advantage is that an air powered nailer is really light weight for overhead work, such as attaching face frames on high cabinets on wall units. Thanks again, these really are good compilations of your years of work and experience.

@10MinuteWorkshop 3 жыл бұрын

Thanks! Good to hear you’re liking it so far. I had no idea Ryobi made a battery powered compressor - I’ll have to take a look at that, thanks! And yes, the 16g is a bit of a lump, keep meaning to get an 18g cordless; I have a corded Maestri nailer /stapler but it maxes out at 25mm, so a bit limiting. 🤷‍♂️👍👍

Thank you for your videos, I like your method of explanation. I just got into DIY because of this quarantine and have been watching a lot of videos lately. Sadly MDF as raw material is not sold in Puerto Rico, but I can apply your teachings to PVC plastic panels, we are not building too often with wood because our weather is excellent for all kind a termites. How you join them (screw, nails, pocket holes) seems to be a personal decision, depending on your desired finish and tools available. For me pocket holes are not a bad option since I will add a layer of formica laminate. And for sure I will suggest your videos to my other pals. Regards, Héctor.

Ive used pocket hole screws for a lot of things. One project used 100 of them. Planter boxes that were lined then filled with dirt so no need to even fill the holes in. ground contact grade cedar and exterior rust resistant screws and boom, three happy magnolia trees in my backyard. They needed the boxes because the top soil where I live is like 4 inches deep and we needed to quickly and easily add a few feet of soil for the trees to take root in. They have good drainage and access to that super thin soil and hopefully will be able to help break donw that very hard clay soil eventually once those roots get long enough.

A very good video, Peter. A lovely antidote to the ones where people seem to spend a whole years income on tools and only ever seem to make plywood cabinets for their own Californian workshops! I'd slightly disagree with you on the downsides of pocket holes though. I make really nice (and pricey!) furniture. Mostly fitted bedrooms. All of it with pre-finished boards that I assemble on site with no further cosmetic re-finishing. Over 99% of it absolutely peppered with pocket hole screws, and none of them visible (unless you look round the back, underneath or anywhere else where no normal person would think of looking!). Using 15mm, 18mm and 25mm boards they're great for fixing at right angles and joining 2 boards butted up to each other, like joining the 2 pieces of the back in a double wardrobe, so you don't have to struggle with a 1 metre wide board. It just needs a bit of time in the planning. But yes, I 100% agree with the basic principle of the series: if you have a way of making a nice clean square cut in 18mm board, and you've got a few basic tools like a drill, a screwdriver and a hammer, and a bit of time, nothing (really) is beyond you. I look back at some of the things I made when I started with an old corded Black & Decker and a B&Q circular saw and still think they look pretty good. And still get customers coming back for more!

@10MinuteWorkshop 3 жыл бұрын

Thanks John! Oh, I know many people - yourself included - who've built nice businesses making very nice furniture with extensive use of pocket-hole screws! But I still don't like them much, I'm sorry! Nothing against the mechanics of them - they're very strong and very easy to use because you're working from the face, every time, and you're only cutting one side of the joint. Now, for me next series, plywood shop cabinets and a walnut credenza, all made with pocket-hole screws - and maybe a couple of brads, just while the glue sets... 😆👍

I think pocket holes are an excellent choice for a beginner who wants to get some stuff built. I actually think the holes look pretty cool as is. My Howdens units have unsightly platic boxes inside plus little shelf supposts but judging by the amount they sell people don't seem to mind too much. What is good about pocket holes is they do square up your work for you, not everyone has a workshop remember!
