Making DIY Budget Cabinets - Office Remodel part 2 - 307

Video Notes...
- The middle drawer that has internal drawer slides will become a file folder drawer. I'll cover that in another video.
- The top will be trimmed with bubinga after I complete my bubinga computer desk :)

Video Notes...
- Economy full extension, 100lb rated drawer slides bought from Outwater.com. They were less than $8 per pair if I recall correctly.
- The middle drawer that has internal drawer slides will become a file folder drawer. I'll cover that in another video.
- The top will be trimmed with bubinga after I complete my bubinga computer desk :)

Jay, I build ATA flight cases for a living, I saw this because I want to build cabinets for the Mrs. Its was very informative and has given the inside on how to build a nice box.. I think you did an excellent Job, definitely better than any box store box.. Good Job. People complain because they are not busy and usually have a chip on their shoulder. We call them Masters of the Universe complex. Again good job and the editing was very good as well. Thks for your channel. hats off to your assistant too!

So many times, when I’m watching your videos, I feel like an idiot. I see you do something and realize that is such an easier way to do it than the way I have in the past! For example, putting the drawer slides on a workbench in order to easily attach the slides to the drawers! Oh well, live and learn! Great video, as always.

This is seriously a treasure trove. I have gone back and watched this video many many times

Thanks for showing that "budget" doesn't have to be "cheap" or flimsy. Wish I had seen the tip of using the square with the jigsaw a few weeks ago... Thanks for sharing!

[wdfwgagyfgagyga]

to use a speed square as a guide for the jigsaw is genius, thank you for showing us this!

Thanks for showing the tedious parts of attaching drawer slides. It’s the unglamorous part of being a woodworker. Great vid.

Beautifully done and great efficiency of work! The only thing I would avoid is the MDF drawers. I recently dismantled an old Ikea desk made from veneer particle board and it was amazing how easily you could knock the the fasteners apart with a moderate hammer blow. No holding power at all! Of course this is an office cabinet with less likelihood of spills that can also degrade MDF. Not a hater at all and love your vids especially minimal narration with emphasis on work flow. Thanks, Keith

Liking the Synology Diskstation in the far right cabinet. Great job and a fun rewatch.

"Say hello to my little friend!" ...nice touch with the rapid fire nail gun. Loved that...

Man, you really killed it on those cabinets. They are a lot like what I build at the cabinet shop I work at. You have a different method but obviously get great results. Bravo.

Really good video and great article. I am building a new kitchen and did the same thing as you, looked at how the commercial units were built then designed mine according to my wife's wish list. I used paint grade maple plywood for the boxes and brown (heartwood) maple for the face frames....not too expensive, easy enough to work with and durable. We have the same problem here as you, 4 big dogs, mud and dust!

Say hello to my little I'm sitting on the couch sipping coffee and just about spewed it across the living room lol.
Love your vids man!

[matthewwasserman]

I love the "slow" shots and different angles of the cabinet. Really helps you get an understanding for the build. Why did you decide to go with MDF for the drawers this time? I remember you knocking failed MDF drawers in one of your OLD videos.

[davidwilliams]

The way these guys build cabinets is so easy.
