How To: Built in wardrobe tips and tricks

hopefully there is some info in here to help someone out. whether its a kitchen, bookcase or wardrobe the same principles apply to making and fitting built it cabinets

[mrinkswitch]

I built myself a small cabinet to fit in a nook in my house last year. I had been a viewer of your channel for a bit, and I happened to catch another video of yours where you were using a story rod to mark the location of the door hinge mounts, and you stopped to explain what you were doing and why. Well, that made sense to me, so I did the same thing for my cabinet, and it worked like a champ. I appreciate the extra effort then and now.

You are the first guy I’ve seen doing carcasses that way . I thought of this way a few years ago . No body does it this way . You are a proper joiner . Thank you 😉

Great job Joey as a professional cabinetmaker I fully appreciate what it takes to build such large wardrobes. Keep up the great teaching

I’ve been building cabinets for a few years, I really must thank you for your tips on how to lay out the drawer runners! I had searched on forums for this very answer.

I loved this video. So informative, thank you. I especially liked the in depth look at the scribers and how a pro like yourself attaches them to the carcass.

LOVED the new format! My favorite was your tip for keeping the scribe from falling into the gap between the cabinet and the wall, brilliant! Super work as usual, thanks!

Great build Joey. I’m planning on something like this in my place. I’ll definitely be referring back to this video for help. Thanks for sharing.

You would think that no more closet space was needed but I am sure that's not the case. Wicked job and great tips. Cheers.

When I stumbled upon this channel, I was impressed by the woodworking skills shown in the videos. The narration and editing is always done very well and makes it fun to watch. But I have to admit, what really puts a smile on my face every time is the kiwi accent. From one professional woodworker to another: keep doing what you are doing, Joey. You are very good at it.

you are absolutely right about the side panels resting on the bottom panel, i learned it the hard way :)

[mistygeller]

WOW!! What a fantastic job and such valuable information!! Thank you so very much for taking the time to share your talents and tips! I genuinely appreciate it! And your work turned out beautifully 😊 You explained everything in a way that was easy to understand, which is great! Exactly what I was searching for!

[NitFlickwick]

That was awesome, Joey. I really appreciate learning from real pros.

You put so many good tips and tricks in this video. I really like the one about the backer for the scriber, but the drawer slides offset is also brilliant and so useful.
