any tips for getting the back support beam (the 45) positioned correctly on the cabinet sides, if they aren’t perfectly flush to the wall/ceiling? it looks like yours were off just a bit but i can’t work out in my head how to hold everything in place and get them lined up without 5 hands haha. maybe temporarily attaching to the wall+ceiling first, then marking the position for the 45 support beam in-place?

@@AnkeneyVanBuilds Update: Three day weekend and an upper 1/2 cabinet, 1/2 bookcase built! I am SO happy with the way it turned out and SO appreciate your clear instructions. Sanding, and primer are on tomorrow's schedule and with a few coats of paint, it will be ready to hang by the weekend. My only question now is.....due to my infantile skills with this type of thing, I built it using pine rather than investing in prime wood for my first project. I will use a hard wood for the cabinet door. Do I rebuild this in a harder wood, or do you think pine in a non-galley cabinet will suffice? My confidence level has jumped so far and I'm 100% in to build my own upper cabinets. The galley and pantry.....not so sure yet! What wood do you recommend and should I donate my pine prototype or install it and hope it holds up?

I had to make some templates for the floor seat cut out. From my dad’s advice, I created the template by adding different shaped bits of card with monster tape rather than cutting off. It worked really well. To done my cupboards yet, so may not work for them. But the advantage is you can get the first piece of card in the right place and then stick further pieces on. Easier with two pairs of hands.

It seems like you are doing a lot of van Builds and you mentioned how time consuming the painting takes. I was thinking it would be a time saver to maybe invest in a paint sprayer or even use foam rollers to paint with. The rollers will eliminate a lot of brush marks too. Absolutely love your videos!!!!

Hey Colton, I'm getting ready to install some overhead cabinets but saw some discussion on other sources about taking additional steps to make sure the cabinets right behind the driver can resist the force they'd see in the event of a front collision, so they don't detach and slam into the back of the driver's head. I know your cabinets are super strong... what do you think are some good techniques to use? I saw some mention of using 90 degree angle brackets bolted to the frame and the cabinets but I'd prefer to do something else. Any thoughts?

If you use some birch heat tape on those door edges to cover that end-grain your finished doors would look better and be easier to paint. Just remember the tape is 1/16 so subtract 1/8 from your measurements both ways. It's cheap and you can iron it on or use a heat gun. Sand the edges smooth and it looks like a piece of solid hardwood. 16 years of cabinet building experience. Other than that nice job.

I use a protractor/angle finder from Amazon to get the angles on corners/straight edges. (www.amazon.com/General-Tools-29-Plastic-Protractor/dp/B00004T7P5/ref=sr_1_16?dchild=1&keywords=angle+finder&qid=1609861677&sr=8-16) I find this tool easier to use in tight corners than the typical angle finder. Then I measure the distance between each corner and start with that template. This seems to save me a lot of time. This doesn't work so well on curved or radiused edges. There I think the "fist" method would be better. Great job. I'm in the process of doing a Promaster 2500 for my winter project and I've used several of your techniques. Thank you for the series.
