I’m an old cabinet maker. This is a great video for people to see. One observation for the middle and best doors. Use a little foam rectangle piece called a panel buddy or foam space balls the Rockler sells. It helps well with expansion and contraction and it takes that hollow sound out when you close the door because panel fits evenly a snug but allows for expansion and contraction. Used them for years and still do. They are crazy cheap for a large amt

Those also work well if you do glass inserts

I love that your beginner is actually beginner friendly. I.e. people who don’t have or is comfortable with using a table saw yet.

Awesome book that gives you step-by-step photos kzread.infoUgkxTNB_zFBSnTo_O1PqfVUwgi7ityw0JlKt and directions to make every day project. I can see myself making a few of these projects and giving them as housewarming and holiday gifts!

Best video for people who actually want to make their own doors with different skill levels and tools. I’ve seen many of these type videos and this is to the point and well done. Thank you

Great video! Thank you for being prepared, not stammering and stuttering, and wasting time! Fast and to the point is what I needed. I actually used this info to do an even more advanced door design, with a 1/4" birch ply insert panel, and it turned out great. Will be watching more vids, for more tips. Thanks.

I used the router method when I redid my kitchen doors. Those router bits are BEASTS! I did stained glass inserts rather than wood, but you still have to allow for the cabinets to contract and expand so you have to get a little creative to keep the glass from shifting over time. That was 10 years ago and they are still good as new

Another variation in between the beginner and intermediate would be to create a rabbit or grove for the plywood back to sit in rather than just on top. Of course this takes additional time.

I loved how you explained the whole process....crisp and clear, without wasting time. I have subscribed to your channel

Thanks for the beginners door example. This method is what I have been looking for. Simple and looks great.

Excellent video! Love the comparison and tiering of options

My 2 cents... beginner should drill the holes for the hinges 1st. Just in case you mess up you don't throw all the other work away.

QUICK AND ACCURATE... Thank you ...

Thanks for this video. I was able to use your approach (pocket screw) to build new doors! Thank you.

Thanks!! This helps a lot. Great video.

Thanks for making a video even though you were sick.

Really good video. I love your stuff when you have a clear and concise concept before you start filming. Your videos where you wing it are entertaining but your technical videos are great.

Because the center panel on the 'pro' can expand and contract you should provide some relief by taking a 1/32 from all sides with the tables saw. In the video the panel is not glued but it is edge bound. This means when the panel expands it is pressing against the stiles. If the expansion is significant, it is possible to split the joinery (the corners) or the panel itself.

This video is so helpful! What size raised panel bit did you use? Thank you!

Terrific video! Great work.🎉

Thank you. I feel I can do this now having seen your video.

This man loves ❤ Ryobi

I like to use 1/2 plywood for my panel, shaker style in the front nice and flat/flush in the back. Same with my drawer faces.

Thank you so much for the awesome video. I kind a like the pro option. Could you please let me know what model Bosch router, the sizes of mortise, tenon and raised panel bits you used for this project?

Awesome 👌🏾

Never made a cabinet but all of this looks easy. Heck, I could probably just go and do the pro version easily.

Nice Video. Really curious about the paint process. Brushed? Sprayed? What type/brands. Would appreciate the info. Thanks

Nice and informative, love the set up in your shop too, wanna set mine up similar. I have a job coming up to make a couple of cabinets, but with glass in the door frame, any tips?

@smooth_ops2942

Build your doors as standard but without a center panel inserted into the groove you have made. After the glue on the mortise and tenon has dried, use a flush cut bit to route out the backside of the channel so your glass can just slip down in and use silicone to adhere the glass to the door.

Hi, the video is very informative as I am beginner and wanted to know What brand of pocket hole jig you are using

Thank you so much! I'm loving the beginner, intermediate and pro series on each build. Grateful!

Me watching the whole video knowing the begginer door is where i ahould have stopped.

Great video . The best that I have found. Quick question. How did you paint? Spray gun ? What do you suggest?

Great video. What kind of primer and paint did you use. Please.

Not sure your supposed to glue the ply panel in either coz your stiles and rails shrink and expand too. We used to paint timber panels before we put them in as well coz when they shrink you see the timber

What kind of hinged are being used for the beginner doors? I built the doors but can’t figure out how to hang them

I need to get a router table.

I'm liking it.

#mrfixit Grandmother here. I love your presentations and energy. Now, here's a tiny bit of Grandmother advice: Have your Adult ENT check you out- especially your vocal cords; then have your Upper GI Doctor check your stomach via an Endoscopy. Why? You're straining your voice to speak normally. Reflux can affect our vocal cords... (A huge issue for teachers plus vocal cord calluses. I taught for approx 45 years). Please be well!

For that "floating" panel, will it crack the paint surface as it moves around from seasonal size changes?

Are you using 3/4 thickness pine for the frame?

Who made the pro doors? I kid I kid. Nice to see another video.

Can I have a link for the center panel you used, please? Or a detailed description. I'm trying to find it on Home Depot with no success. Thank you!

It was interesting t0 see the variety of cabinet door builds. Your regular job must be as a Ryobi rep

Can you use a hand router tool rather than the big table router??

For me, the 3th possiblity professionnal like you say, should be a profile and counter profile assembly. And last, we never glue a pannel. This one need to be free to move. It will be also more easy to change it in case if it break.

In the comments, “Pros don’t use Ryobi.” It’s kind of obvious but tools do not a Craftsman make. It takes skill to be a craftsman. Craftsmen used to use non powered hand tools. Some of us still do for some things.

The tool brand myth is funny to me. Professional craftsmen don’t care who makes the tools, as long as it delivers the results required. It’s also kind of sad. So many people meet with failure early in their careers and hobbies because they don’t understand what tools actually provide. The skills are the important thing.

Sorry if I missed it but what type of wood did you use?

If i'm painting not staining is there an advantage to using select pine over MDF for the beginner doors?

@jordanveverica6696

Жыл бұрын

Select pine is solid wood. It will hold up better over time. Also, when you are installing your concealed hinges, real wood tends to be a better option because the screws will bite into the wood better than MDF (which may end up splitting and/or cracking). I'd recommend using poplar over pine in this case because it is not significantly more expensive but it is a litter harder (ie more durable) and paints better. MDF is also more likely to crack with frequent open/close usage. That said, 1/4" MDF works great for the floating panel because it is stable and paints really well.

Intermediate doors- need to cut the groove in rails and stiles first, then match the tenon to that width. Otherwise, too tight or too much slop. Been there, done that....

I never built the beginner door, but I’ve build the other two when making shop furniture. Do you have any idea why space balls are used, or in what applications you would use them? I just let the panel float, but guess the space balls are used to allow it to float but keep it firm so it doesn’t rattle, but the balls allow it to swell? I don’t know, but waste of money i think. What do you use for your dust collector? I noticed it seems to do a good job on your table saw and router table. I didn’t see it sitting in your shop.

You're exactly right on why the space balls can be used. They keep a floating panel snug in place while allowing for wood movement.

@Lmberjosh

Жыл бұрын

Definitely not a waste of money if you are using solid wood panels. With plywood or mdf you don't have the expansion concerns you do with solid wood and thus don't need to leave the space which the space balls are intended to fill. If you use solid wood and don't let it float (ie glue it in place) you are asking for trouble if it expands. If you don't glue it in place and don't use space balls it will rattle and - depending on how much space you left and the depth of the groove - you might end up with some gaps on one or more edges of the panel.

Brad nailing the quarter round inset seems like overkill. Wood glue is stronger than wood, and you won’t have nail holes.

They’re Milwaukee in green. They’re designed and manufactured by the same company. A lot of the internal parts are interchangeable. If you don’t drop your tools all the time it’s hard to argue against Ryobi.

So, you're not gonna tell us what kind of primer you used or paint?

5% more effort on the first one fitting the back panel inside the frame using the trims as a "holder" from the front, and it will look 10x better than the last one with all the bells and whistles.

Wouldn't a beginner door be a slab cabinet door? Not on with bevels or grooves or accents (I know he just glued and nailed the accent but did it need it?)? I feel like the beginner could've been made even easier. But they all still look super nice
