Today I am attempting to turn a strangely small walk-in closet into a much bigger closet by adding some much needed storage. I built some cabinets out of oak veneered plywood that included two banks of drawers as well as plenty of hanging space. This build was a fun challenge to maximize the useful space in such a compact area. And I don’t build a lot of cabinets, so it was a fun change of pace to the usual furniture builds we have around here.

The author does like to kzread.infoUgkxkNYRBJuiJ6EwD-tQSAlxg0eFKsnR2cgz from scratch, shaping and trimming wood from large blocks into fine finished products. As another reviewer mentioned, most projects require a lot of high-dollar equipment that most of us don’t have the room or budget for. But, knowing how to do these things, even if we won’t be able to practice the full stack project, is still great.
This feels like a more "old school Shaun or Chris" video and I love it; you guys don't need to try to be cool, you're cool by default - more like this please!

I don't know if they're cool by default but they're woodworkers, not comedians. Since they teamed up i've enjoyed their videos less and less and although i like the work that they make i find myself skipping though the videos or not even watching them at all these days, unless they are videos like these, which is the type of video and the reason why i started watching "old school Shaun and Chris" in the first place.

I've always enjoyed Shaun. Rewatch his own videos all the time.

100% agree with you. Love their video format. And they are just down to earth nice guys to boot👍👍 Did you see Chris's most recent video where he builds a table for his parents ? One word...... Absolutely-gorgeous. Haha, That's one word right ? Take care, ~Jonny5🥁
I like this format. I think the voice-over “watch as we watch” is a good format, and this is exactly the kind of project that works for that format. Thanks for sharing your work, and your process. The finished project looks really good!!
I've watched you guys for a long time and part of that reason is because what you do is amazing It's just as good to watch you do much more attainable work for us normal woodworkers
I love the way you comment through the video. It changed from the way Chris does his videos. Love it.
Love this format of video! The best parts are when you are dropping a little side note/quip - the whole "it's going in my house and I just have to look at it and be annoyed, every day" type comments make the video so good
When trimming edge banding flush, I always put a piece or 2 of blue tape where the bearing spins, this helps so you don't get any weird bearing marks and also gives you a TINY bit of banding to sand back so you're not messing with your veneer. It seems to help for me :)

That is a killer tip... thanks!
Regardless of whatever content I'm watching (woodworking, furniture builds, mowing, tiling etc.) I enjoy voiceovers the most. They relax me & capture my attention. With that said, I enjoy every type of video you guys make!! Just keep making videos is all I need!! Hoping all is well guys, Dirty Jersey out!!
As someone that has followed both of you from pretty early days and follows both channels (when I’ve unsubscribed from almost every other woodworking channel) I like both formats. These are good, the other candid stuff is good, you guys are good. Keep making the stuff you enjoy making and people will keep watching. Much love.
Literally any format to these videos you use works for me. It always comes out clean and what I’m most interested in is your personalities, humor, and knowledge. I did enjoy this “director’s commentary” format a lot
It's nice to see some real world problem solving for normal size spaces, I liked the format used it was kind of between your 2 channels and I think it worked well with the project if that makes sense.
I honestly prefer their more normal and polished style videos myself. It's what drew me to be a fan of their work, and set them apart from other wood working channels for me.
I liked the format of walking us through. I also liked the project and seeing you build things that I might do in my house is nice even though its not exactly as cool as the awesome looking furniture you normally do. Thanks! And well done
Great build and nice VO format. I just wish you had cut the baseboards so it could sit flush against the wall.
Wow! Looks great. You really maximized that closet area. I think its cleaner without adding the shelves, but you know your space needs best. Well done!
That was great Shaun. I enjoy voice over videos and being walked through the steps. Great design for a tight space.
The lighter edge band detail on the drawer front is actually a nice design feature in my opinion.
Quote: “Something is funny, I don’t know” Love this format … please keep doing it 🙂
This was a fun little build to watch, Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us. I absolutely love your guys channel, you and Chris make such beautiful projects, I really appreciate the walkthroughs you guys do with your videos. The production, the editing and the camera work is awesome, nice job. Take care, hopefully see you soon. ~Jonny5🥁
I always injoy the video's that y'all come out with. This one was one as well. Looks great. You should turn that door into a pocket door. Just an idea.
I love this format. More of this please, it goes well with your regular more "produced" videos.
I agree with CCooperDev about the level of polish being better in your normal format. But, I think you could become more polished as you do more of these types of videos. If this is a way that you can produce more content, then great. If this is an alternative to your normal video format - then I don't think its so great. It is great to try something new, even if it doesn't work.

I agree, I had suggested maybe offer this as a bonus in addition to the standard cut.
I love this format of walk through. I like the style you normally do but I think this style works well with this build in particular.
I like this format for this kind of build Shawn, well done!
Love this format!!👍👍👍 Excellent work.
I don't know what it is about them, but I love these Starrett rules so much. Delightfully simple.
And... another great project finished!!!
Great video guys. Keep up the amazing work!
Very nice, Shaun! I have a small closet, and now you have inspired me. Thanks for sharing. Felix
Excellent narrative and work, I enjoyed this format very much. Kudos to both, I love the channel.
As usual, you guys knock it out of the park, and a lot of comments are gonna be on the woodworking/design (which is great) but you have been using fantastic music in your videos and I want to make sure it's getting recognised.
Beautiful work!
Great video! Thank you.
Loved the style of this. It may be nice to switch it up every couple uploads!
Really cool. I dig the format.
Beautiful guys!
The concept of “fudging room” is very useful. :)
I love getting baked and watching these videos haha
Nice work. I enjoyed this format.
Nice closet upgrade~! Yeah, this format works fine for me too.
Amazing job sir.. Great video. We also have an odd shaped space in our bedroom to make into a closet. This was great inspiration.
Love this format sir!
Finally a build that makes me think Hey, i could build that too! Nice one, Shaun, this type of video is nice to watch, but your other type(s) of videos are cool as well.
I like the drawer pulls.
Nice build, did you give any consideration to having the door swing out so you wouldn’t have any dead space in the room?

Or use a pocket door?
Excellent workmanship.Cheers from India 🇮🇳.
Love this format
Ok guys, have to say it : it takes no more than 3 clicks to get to the customization page on which you can change the channel's name into Foureyes. DO IT ALREADY !! On a less pressing note, i liked that format, and the build as well. Smart move thinking ahead of the final assembly to use the second box as potential adjustment. It's a little thing but I'm fairly sure most amateur builders wouldn't plan that far ahead were they to start such a project on their own.
Looks great - it works.
shaun its a super good vid. thanks for it allot
Good format
Nice job Man. 👍
I have one of these too. Thanks for the ideas
Man.....you are the best
I liked the new format
Could you please make a closet with sliding doors that would be nice. Anyway this is lovely gave much idea to build it.
I really like this style of video :) reminds me of old four eyes feels
Yup. Voiceover is best. Thanks.
Nice result for a weird space.
Great use of the space, Shaun. I do miss some of the banter between you and Chris, though. I'll watch either way. Bill
I like how you are bored out of your mind when all the angles are 90 degrees. :)
Good build, good format. Well done. I WAS going to ask why you didn't reconfigure the door to open outward, but I see where someone else asked that question five months ago, and it remains unanswered, so I won't bother.
Love the cabinets. Very tight space to work with. Just a shame you weren’t able to find enough room to put a little bench under that window. Would have made a nice little retreat for a cup of coffee or even just an extra place to sit and put your shoes on. Also the new format reminds me of DVD extras with directors commentary tracks
the one thing this channel is missing is more corgy action
Cool project! Turned out great. I think I prefer the more scripted and polished voiceover like in the previous videos. They're very smooth while still feeling natural. This one was good, but didn't have the same flow
Really cool! Thanks for the video. How long did it take to make everything?
Maybe you should think about Rastex connections for these odd situations like towards the end. But nice build for this small room.
Great! Just a thought; this would have great even without the top panel.
Where did those angled shelves end up? I thought those were a cool use of that space in front of the door.
Hi ! love you videos and this one is good too but i think i prefer the usual format :)
You know what would look really nice, is if you would have kept those ends on the dowels you made. I've never seen someone make their own hanging rods before, but that's a great, quick way of doing it. You know, like if you would have measured your length then cut the stock, then routered it into a dowel with the square ends left. Then made some type of bracket for the square ends to hang in. That would essentially give you the opportunity to hide those screws as well. This was an amazing project. We're actually getting ready to remodel our basement into the master bedroom and we talked about building something like this in the closet for my wife. Except ours will have a section for a mirror and all her makeup

Interesting idea for the dowels.

I was thinking the same thing, except I was thinking of making a square recess in the sides to fit the square ends, and just gluing it in place. No screws to hide.
Super helpful, thanks
Would've been nice to see the right side notched out to reveal the window better. I feel like pieces in tight spaces like this have much less need for symmetry, since you can't stand back and observe it really well. It's a nice piece that could move to any future space though.
Love this! How did you secure the cabinets to the wall?
Might want to consider making the base sleepers shy of the floor. They then avoid humps in the floor. Just a thought.
The honey badger uses screws to build. Then removes them and drills the hole out and replaces them with dowels. Boom. Better ‘view’.
Why did you add the 4 verticals stretchers between the base and middle shelves? Was it for the drawer brackets or just for strength ? Just wondering I’m building something similar now. Awesome videos as always
I like the video format and design. Is that white or red oak?
I'm still one of the odd guys that prefers Shaun's old channel.
No puns, zero stars.
hey! i used my sony m4s and notice u used your sonys for ear protection... is there any diference from a conventional protection?
How do you finish or protect the inside of the drawers?
Nice job, more closest should have windows
What program are you doing these 3-d renderings?
I can smell your closet from here.
Anyone else wondering why there is a window in the small closet? Cuts down on light bulbs, for sure. Still curious as why the builder installed such a large window in such a small space. Product of Remodeling perhapa?
Hi can you tell me what glue you are using please
Ah yes, the Common Tate...the most abundant of all the Tates. A close second would be the Speckled Tate.
What kept your contractor/"designer" from incorporating this space in the new bathroom?
Neden kontraplak kullanıyorsun sunta ve ya mdf kullansan daha ucuz olmazmı sanırım orada ahşap daha ucuz
did anyone notice that 44.9 degree on the table saw 6:11
Can I ask how much you pay for plywood? and how many layers it has?
Nice project, the use of space and design and learned something again so thanks. Not a fan of the unscripted voice over though.
damn he's good
Well I actually don't hate this format, but I like the "normal" one way better but I won't bother if you make every now and then such videos :)
Coba bikin lemari joran pancing dan kelengkapanya...
Like
I am OK with this format
I like the format…especially if it’s easier for you guys to make content. The older vids from Chris seemed like a lot of production time, they are beautiful, but content is more important to me than super fancy post production. Just my 2 cents.
I have watched this video in the past and still enjoy watching your process! Turned out very nice! I like it a lot!
