Can't believe I just spent 10 minutes watching a guy screw two pieces of board to a base. 'This time is gone forever.

[ccmtor]

you need a kreg jig!

[bigjake1965]

don't you think it would be better to have the sides sit on the bottom rather than screw into the side of the bottom....so your not relying on the screws to hold the weight from the top pushing down on the sides.

Good video. part 4 is missing or what?

[rjal1973]

Please let us know what screws you used to assemble? Are they SPAX? I cannot find any that have a cutting nib on the head.

Love your cabinetmaking series. Couldn't find The Basics of Cabinetmaking Part 4, so I just went from 3 to 5a.

fergusof,

Part 4 is the video "Shelf Pins & the Festool LR 32 system"

[Arathae]

Oh cutting nib sorry I wrote that last coment half way through the video lol.

[Arathae]

Those auger bits don't split the wood? Also what about counter sinking your screw heads? Do you also think that rabbets are unnecessary? Would they not leave a nicer seem?

[volfrfitrzach]

what kind of screws where those you mentioned?

[JayDogg1971]

Great videos. Do you have any about building doors for these cabinets?

[joefusco1960]

JD,

I'm a bit behind schedule with my video's but I will have a door video in a few weeks. Just subscribe and you'll get any new one's I put up.

Joe, I still don't understand why cabs are made with stretchers on top instead of a solid panel. Is it just to save material?

[joefusco1960]

CulleyInCanby,

Only base cabinets are made that way, uppers have a full top. Since the bases have a "top" going on them there really isn't a need for a full top, but if you want to put one, go right ahead. And yes, it's a material thing.

[Arathae]

It really makes no sense to put a solid tp on top of another solid top. You screw the countertop from underneath through the stretchers. That's what hold your countertop on. Unless of course you have a corian or granite countertop. For that ask Joe hee hee.

[joefusco1960]

Arathae,

If you have a solid surface top you'd just use silicone to secure it.

[Arathae]

There you go.
