when pocket hole jigs / machines became readily available for the homework shop. That was a joinery game changer and time saver for me. Before I purchased my pocket hole machines and jigs. I'd built my face frames with dowel, mortis and ternion, tongue and groove and ship lap joinery. But now for my face frames, its simply pocket hole joinery, screws and a few pin nails. Super simple, super-fast and very strong for face frames. Great video.

Do you notice the pieces shift ever so slightly when using pocket hole joinery? It happens with me on site when wainscoting frames so I've been looking at pocket hole cutters which cut a lower angle pocket using a router so the pieces don't shift. I watched a video where a guy built his own and it's a professional hole cutting machine but he doesn't have plans for it

@@a-carpenter9229 I don't have that happen to me. I always use a Kreg clamp made for this kind of joinery. When using glue (this is where the pieces might slide) I will pre-assemble the joint and that gives me the holes just like if you had drilled a pilot hole for a regular screw.I got this from a video that I saw from Kreg many years ago. I have one of the original pocket hole jigs made from aluminum with steel drill guides and I still use it a lot.

Awesome shop. Nice work.

If I had a shop setup like this, it’d probably be because I already build cabinets. I was looking for a video on how to build cabinets using the typical, methhead-stolen, pawnshop-bought tools found in your average, everyday, homeowner/non-cabinet-builder’s garage. But this ended being an entertaining and informative watch, and you’re a real peach of a dude. I’m still getting a nice idea of how these things go together, so I guess mission partially accomplished. Thanks, man!

Great video, and good job on the box. However, I do not recommend putting face frames together with pocket screws - particularly on wall cabinets. Having built custom cabinets and furniture for over 40 years I have seen pocket screw face frames fail after 5-10 years - again, mostly on wall cabinets. i have used dowels and floating tenons in the past, now I use dominos.

Why leave the 1/4" overhang on the outside of the carcass? If you butt against something (wall or another cabinet) won't there be a gap?

@angelinaimmordino8914

4 ай бұрын

The cabinets are screwed together through the face frame to sort of form one unit. It also makes it easier to install filler pieces (a board the same thickness as the face frame that goes between two cabinets or a wall and cabinet edge) when the cabinets don't fit perfectly (ex: 78 inch wall space with 2x 36inch cabinets = 72, a filler would be installed to make up for the 6 inches of empty space). Another reason for the overhang is that walls are rarely in perfect square, so you can align the face frame and adjust the back, without the overhang, it would be much harder to square the cabinet fronts. Hope this helped.

Popular stains grade two takes color right out of the can

What is your minimum comfortable distance for hands to table saw blade before using a push stick or push block?

If I place three carcasses together, how do I make face frames for them? Do I make it as a big one unit? or do I make a face frame for each carcass? If latter, face frame width between carcass gets too wide? So do I make narrow width face frame (stile) where two vertical carcasses are placed each other? I have search this extensively, but no answer. . . .

If you don't have pocket holes on a sides (e.g. the sides will be visible), how do you attach the face frame?

I’ve watched a lot of carcass build videos but so far none have showed how to attach the top and what material. I think plywood is not the best choice because of the edges showing along the sides (unless there is a way to do so, but have not seen a video). Also, on a very narrow, deep carcass (12” x 40”), how can you even get to the inside to attach the top since the back panel is already in place? Sorry if these are questions that have simple answers but my mind is not a sharp as it once was.
