Furniture Making

[TomKaren1994]

Not bad... I think the only I would do different is use a single notched storyboard sitck when putting in the drawer separators, rather than using the same stick as a spacer over and over.

Good job.

[RockRocky09]

awesome vid!

[d24isDURIAN]

Its hard to find cabinets that are made of quality these days. The majority of cabinets are all made with MDF or Melamine wood. You seldom see any cabinets made of raw material now and if you do it would be quite expensive.

[lexugax]

@d24isDURIAN As an amateur woodworker I can tell you that you can find good furniture made with real wood, but it is going to be expensive, because hard woods are expensive, and a good hand made piece of furniture requires quite a lot of work and experience to make, but also it's something that you will be able to pass down to your children if you take care of it.

[d24isDURIAN]

@lexugax Haha yeah i know im a carpenter/cabinet maker. My workplace only make custom cabinets with melamine and mdf though. There are a few places that make pine wood or jarrah furnitures but all have a hefty price tag on them.

[MrAtlanticstar72]

Brilliant !! Just what i was after.. cheap crap easy to build- lasts for a few years and then i can throw it off the balcony onto a passing negro when im finished with it.

[voon100]

@MrAtlanticstar72 Don't you wish to throw a TV instead? After all that's what all negro wants when it comes to looting.

[wks1978]

Mass produced cheapo work.

[voon100]

@wks1978 At least it's not flat pack crap.

[wks1978]

@voon100 True.

really interesting video,thanks alot,i enjoyed it

[Al828282]

Initally, I was appalled at the construction techniques. By the end of the video, I would have given the construction an 85% rating.

For durability against seasonal changes, I would have added biscuts to the ends of the carcase. Also, I would have tried to use small floating mortises.

Also, I think the builder failed to recognize geometric dimensional variations associated with stack tollerancing as he used the spacer to locate the rails.

In the end, the construction is more than adequate.

as long as it's solid wood!

[AlMayer1100]

This is considered being "craftmanship"? Lol. Every school kid can do that. This more about handling machines.

[lazurit7nj]

How long does it take to assemble and paint a wardrobe like this? Must be very pricey.... to buy and produce.

[FragNet0]

hey dude it's a tacker not a hammer :-p

[Furnish123QCA]

A lot of good work goes into this. Nice video!

[menahunie007]

Interesting about some posters claiming to cabinet makers; yet don't know what a Kregg joint is...

[zonkozonko]

@menahunie007 Yes you can buy a simple "Kregg screw joint" jig which bolts on the work bench and uses your own Electric or battery drill. OK for the home woodworker. The only comment I can make is I would be screwing from the inside of the cabinet to hide the screws.

[roryDublin187]

@menahunie007 sorry i dont use screws.thats cheating

[student135]

id build this crap myself !

[oscarfootmann]

Couple of Pompus twots is a CORRECT assesment of the first posters.. Pocket screws are strong as hell.. Biscuits are only for alignment.. No strength from a biscuit.. With this construction this cabinet will be strong enough for years of service.. I build high end hard wood cabinets EVERYDAY. Not like this low end stuff but I know this stuff will be strong and is a good quick technique..

[anotherdougie]

what a pair of pompous twots!... this is mass assembly of furniture using shite whitewood and is perfectly adequate for most people. If they were butchering oak or ash I could understand the comments....

[bbfur]

nice video showing how to make furniture. Very informative and educative.

[txflatsfisher]

With 299,794 downloads you would have made $29,794 at DimeStand.

[nagwatcy]

hi

this model of carpentry work now, that name classic work, but is not strong for long time.

and is you make in sheet or Wave wood take half this work

but showing nice thanks....... wheer are yo come from?

[nagwatcy]

hi

this model of carpentry work now, that name classic work, but is not strong for long time

[beeeeoch]

Actually pocket-hole construction is very strong . Build something with biscuits and something with pocket-holes and put them through some stress and tell me which holds up better . You may be suprised .

[pd4748]

you mite make fun of this this const but its a whole lot better than what you can buy at kmart

[hurricanetupo]

what aloud of rubbish, how weak must that drobe be, not built to last thats for sure.

[mrtexansfan23]

Thanks for the video I like the project and looking forward on building one.

[MrMargarineMan]

Justin Bieber made 10 accounts to dislike this

[MustardMonkeyLtd]

cabinets and cupboards constitute furniture

[nayair]

sorry if this is a dumb question, but why are they called furniture makers if they are making cabinet and cupbosrds and what not?

[69soulstone]

I am partial to dovels :)

[NaturalRenaissance]

We create quality wood work with alot of inlay... but not on this scale.Our products are hand crafted It takes alot of work for any wood work on this scale its very impressed thanks for sharing from NaturalRenaissance com

[specialks1953]

This may not be the best quality in the world but it seems to be a very high quality "mass produced" product. I bet it is worth every penny paid for it unless the end seller screws the buyer. I like the reasonable quality control and design ovreall. It is what it is and you shouldn't be paying for "Custom Fine Fitted Work" when you purchase this product.

[ploetzlich30]

4:04 - 4:08, way to close at a spinning sawblade!

[lordpookio]

glue and screw is a proven method

[alderaforall]

@lordpookio so is lovin and leavin

[woodentoolcompany]

@lordpookio Pockethole joinery in my opinion is the most superior way to build cabinets!

[loopywoopy666]

u work at Focus? cool ^_^

[TheBuckna]

science does not back your claims on these joints being bad and weak...." Independent testing found that a pocket screw joint failed at 707 pounds when subjected to a shear load while a comparable mortise and tenon joint failed at 453 pounds – meaning that the pocket screw joint was approximately 35% stronger" other studies have shown MT to be stronger. End of the day these joints have their place even in the best furniture.

[londonfurniturelover]

thanks for the video, really interesting

[christower50]

Im only an apprentice cabinet maker and i know that this is a terrible way to fix joints.

[exportfurniture]

Hey, sell your furniture on towood.com

[smeargut]

watch ya fingers with the nail gun G's sends a chill down my spine yea these pocket screws seem weak just a flat screw from the opposite direction from the back will hold alot more the screw is holding alot more of the meat of the timber the pocket screw seems to hold very little meat of the timber looks cool and fancy tho maybe for smaller and less durable furniture lt would be ok ps i finish my carpentry trade this month yewwwww.

[furnituredecoreasy]

It's interesting to see someone build a furniture in front of our eyes

[ows246]

mmm, my father got a factory, but we do alot of things different, because of the demand of the cnsumer budget , sofor example instead of solid wood strips at the back we might mke a plywood back.

Making Doors is different too xD,

[strapen2good]

Thanks ebsmedia, very stimulating and informative video!

[woodlist]

This is pocket-hole screw 'joinery'. You would be surprised how strong this can be. I have a layout bench made using these screws, and believe me it's still going strong after three years continual use. I did it for speed and convenience. Just the reasons these folk use pocket-hole joinery. For me it meant I could get on with some proper furniture making. As for this video, with normal treatment this wardrobe should last quite a few years. So research before you comment folks.

[driepintenbier]

I learn to make baroue style furniture by hand. My first job 30 years ago in a caravan company use the same assembly like this video. The company fail because all the caravan is broken.

[TheGligs]

Piece of shit...

[HubertHoratio]

I'd just like to register my amazement that "carcase" can refer to furniture.

[micgogh]

Thank you so much

[gentlemandude]

This is some of the worst woodworking I've ever seen. Sadly, lots of people pay top dollar for crap like that.

[bodfish1996]

U really don't no anything do u ???????

[punjedi]

For those saying that dowels and biscuits have no strength should actually watch the videos on stress testing between different joinery styles. It really comes down to look and intention. How clean do you want your surfaces? How long do you want it to last? Material costs play a big part in a production shop as well.

As far as strength, I am 215 lbs and I built a small chair with nothing but glue and dowels. I can jump up and down on it with no cracking or seperating. Alignment helps too.

[1too3fore]

classic joinery beats this any day

[ejs619]

Some people have don't have the time for hand-cut dovetails and mortise and tenons...you feel me?

[1too3fore]

dovetails don't take any time, neither does fine craftsmanship, laziness and shoddy work is what has caused the downfall and general disgrace of the trades.

[theliquidgroove]

@1too3fore I'll agree with that statement too, but unfortunately everything now is about the bottom line, how much money can people put in their pockets.

[1too3fore]

@theliquidgroove Who cares? I'm not planning on buying anything these guys make so it doesn't really matter! LOL!

[gwoloshyn]

@ejs619 Your right. This seems like a very high production shop and if I was the owner, I would be doing things the same way. This shop isn't building fine furniture but probably more stuff for the big box stores and time=money.

[mithrandir10001]

Actually, I think the construction used on this is significantly better than the knock-down fasteners used on furniture that comes in a box. Those always end up needing to be re-tightened periodically. At least they were using glue. No, it's not furniture for the ages, but it definitely has it's place.

[phartattack]

This is a great video ...But... The only problem I had was the builder using his air tools to tap and bang things into place... They were light taps but if you do it enough it's the same as just a few Extreme major bangs!

Excellent work all the same!

MZ-HANDYMAN

Google/Youtube me! then click videos for my work!

Not an advertisement just would like some comments on my work too.

Thanks!

[zonkozonko]

@phartattack I spotted that too if the safety device on your nail gun jams its only time before you shoot yourself in the leg! I know a friend of mine had a four inch spiral nail in his thigh. The sugeon had to borrow tools from the maintainence dept

[ririshow]

Well it sounds british english to me!

[afreegreek]

bunch of pretentious wood snobs with little to no experience making furniture commenting here.. umm, and to the guy who thinks pocket screw have little strength.. you're wrong.. glue alone in plenty if the piece is designed properly.. the screws are there to replace clamps until the glue dries.. people don't keep their furniture for a lifetime anymore so doing fancy, time consuming joinery is a waste of time..AND you aren't going to put food on the table doing it..

[kyd06]

i agree with kaiote643 it is very poor cabinet,,,,,,but hey guys at least is maid in the usa beter then over see maid

[kingmike40]

A white guy building something that is amazing. I thought only asians or mexicans, work for a dollar a day, were the only ones allowed to build anything.

[Nosokomos1]

There is a time and place for everything. The stuff they're showing isn't particle board with laminate. Furniture ranges from use a while and throw away to use for a lifetime and donate to museum. Somewhere in the middle...

I didn't hear narrator tell us this was College of the Redwoods.

[Kaiote643]

Must be an IKEA or Walmart supply factory. Looks like what you'd expect from 17 year old rookies building a tool crib @ job startup. I said boo-urns.

[svinehunden]

and you NEVER bang directly on the wood with a hammer... great video but NOT so great work...

[svinehunden]

you NEVER use screws when you use glue... the ONLY reason to use screws when you want to be able to disassemble the furniture...

[dpmbn8]

haha.  just like all the other commentors on here, you know nothing.

[pulppeeler]

Have you ever tried to break a dowel or biscuit joint? How bout just edge glueing 2 boards together? When done properly it will pull wood fiber from one side or the other of the joint...so in essence...the joint is stronger than the wood

[jakadaba]

I would get fired for building shit like that !

[ADEISACE]

dowels or biscuits provide no mechanical strength whatsoever.the idealjoints would have been rabbet or dado.

[DLBBAM]

@ adeisace dowels and biscuits dont provide strength, but they do help tremendously in alligning things and keeping them allingned -which is difficult when gluing up panels. The gule joint is very strong, especially with modern glues. I love joinery, but unfortunately its not always practical to use the best way.

[arsdag81]

look up Festool's "Domino Joiner", they use solid hardwood "domino" shaped biscuits and are just as strong as a traditional mortise and tenon.

[apple0071]

you nailed through the side off the job u fecking prattt learn some joints you piss stain ;@

[zackazoid]

lol how to build flat pack!!

[Yoglawm]

I am an amatuer with no woodworking training.  However, anytime I build something that involves joints I spend the extra time just to make sure that the joints are strong. I have limted tools but I am able to make dado, rabbet, dovetail joints using just a plunge router and a straightedge.

There is no skills involve - just patients.

[JamaicaGR10]

I like pocket screws, they work till I have the time to learn better joints.

[dejavameuble]

the construction you made not really strong enough for long age furniture. you should use dowels/pen glued with high quality glue. not only use screw.

tnx.

de java meuble

[Chordwayze]

Oh dear!

[DolfinoBR]

How are name this serie?

[daflyingkiwi]

Screws without dowels/biscuits or any kind of joints are very weak even with glue, on a couple of occasions the guy when useing the nail gun has his fingers right next to where he is nailing (if the nail was to skew out the side as it sometimes can then it would go into his finger) also he uses the staple gun as a hammer when flushing up the t&g. Very budget production stuff. It may be fast but with no proper joints in the carcass- one decent knock or just over time these units will come apart.

[johnwelsh696969]

agreed... i am a cabinetmaker and would consider it a waste of wood... however not all people can buy highend quality built furniture

[Chordwayze]

Yes John:

The only time I saw screw pockets on furniture, was on a cheap kichen table my parents had in the 1940's. The screws were used for holding the plywood top. Quite adequate for that and it lasted years. But jointing a wardrobe? No way!

Regards

John

[AlMayer1100]

@johnwelsh696969 All people can buy high quality. The problem is that people are spending a lot for useless crap instead.

[moses0051]

@daflyingkiwi obviously you have never made pocket hole joinery. It IS more secure than any other method. Especially when coupled with glue. Think about it. Whats more likely to hold together, glued joints or glued and double screwed joints? Not to mention the time cost and skill required to do it. Everyone wants to think they have a special skill. Sorry, anyone can do it.

[rootsxrocks]

@moses0051 A through mortice and tenon pegged will last 2000 years

[Xanre83]

@moses0051 agreed, all you old wood workers out there don't even consider the new methods used now are just as good if not better than the old ones.

[Xanre83]

@daflyingkiwi you should look up and read about pocket hole screws.. done right it is about as strong as a mortise and tenon.
