Might just struggle if there isn’t much space between the top of the unit and the ceiling👍🏼

Yeah it is a handy method. Just remember to seal it at the bottom if you do use this method. It can be any size as long as the piece you clamp on is the exact same as the one you run across the floor.

That is the only important measurement, can just be thin bits of offcuts as long as it hooks on the cabinet ok. Thank you for watching👍🏼

In all honesty I haven’t done that many kitchens yet but i have tried this method a few times and it has worked well every time. Every time i have done it, i put the doors on first. It’s just important to remember to adjust the door so that it is level before doing the scribe. If not the end panel won’t finish level and will follow the door. If you did it without the doors and did the scribe to the carcass, you would need to add the thickness of the door (plus a couple of mm for adjustment) the bit of timber you clamp on the end panel. Hope this makes some sense?😆 Thanks for watching!

Before getting my track saw i made a track for my circular out of a few bits of mdf and that worked pretty well. When i used that along with a sharp blade there was hardly any breakout so could just cut from the face side. I would definitely recommend knocking one of them up if you have any materials spare. If not maybe just transfer the marks round each end. Join them up with a straight edge and cut a few mm to the waste side. Can always flip it over and then sand to your line.

If you offer the full sized end panel up to the cabinet, the panel will be bigger than the cupboard. For example it may be 30mm bigger on the top. In this case, if you use something under 30mm and clamp it on. It wouldn’t lift the end panel up of the ground. If you used anything over 30mm, for example 40mm. That would allow you to clamp it to the panel and hook it on the cabinet as i do so in the vid. As long as you use a block on the floor what is the exact same size, you can run it along the floor and that will follow any contours. As long as that is done correctly, cut to the line and it should drop down and finish perfectly level with the top. Hope this helps, if not let me know and i will try and explain better. Thank you!😄

Ohhh right,If it is a larder unit and you have plenty of height in the kitchen… you can still use my method you just thicker off cuts. I will try explaining the best i can but just make sure you check all of your measurements before cutting because I don’t want to make you mess up your end panel if I don’t explain it very good but here goes😆 offer the end panel up to the larder like i did on the vid. Put an off cut of the 40mm pelmet on top of the end panel and measure from the top of the larder to the top of the end panel (including the pelmet off cut). You will need 2 off cuts the exact same thickness (like i did on the vid) but they have to be thicker than the overhang that you previously measured. Once you have them, take the pelmet away and clamp the off cut to the top of the panel. Then put the pelmet on the larder unit and hook the end panel on. Then use the other off cut to mark along the bottom and it will compensate for the pelmet and leave an extra 40 mm on the top. Hope this helps?

Do they ever over hang the door?

這方法我個人認為做的太複雜，耗時又費工；我的做法是先將櫃體門片後調整好（櫃體水平也是）再把側收門片如視頻那樣緊貼在即將要鎖固的那面，再拿卷尺由下到上，由後至前（若地平和牆面有高低或深淺落差很多，建議用卷尺多量測至少三點以上的切割線（由下至上，由後至前）...他這樣的量側過程和裁切完成時間，約四分鐘就完成😊

I done this 5 min be there all week fitting kitchen lol

can you make the cuts with a jigsaw? i dont have a circular saw. thanks. geoff.

Yes mate, all i would say is use downward cutting blades and maybe leave it a bit further away from the line and sad up to it. You just want to avoid breaking the panel out as much as possible👍🏼

It does yeah, if they are very bad it may be worth using a smaller block that runs along the wall so that it follows the contours a little better

Hi, how many teeth has your saw? I mean, what is the ideal circular saw teeth number

@mwjoinery

Thanks for watching! I believe that one is 48 tooth and I like to use that for most things. Then i tend to just swap it for something a bit less fine when cutting sheet material👍🏼

turn your panel upside down and mark across the top of the unit. level panel and no messing around :)

That wouldn't be accurate if the floor runs uneven

@Stu Hill uneven doesn't matter as long as its flat. Only ever fitted one kitchen where they had a cobbled floor. 👍

@Stu Hill turn your panel face in to the unit. Mark across the top of the unit then cut from underneath. Just saved you hours of messing around. 😁😁😁

So what about of the flooring hasn’t been fitted yet but you need to instal the worktop and sink? Real world problems, so this doesn’t help much in my situation.

Yeah, it might not work in every situation but if it’s a complete new kitchen you would fit the worktops after the end panels. I also fitted the flooring before doing the end panel in this situation

Bet that track saw weren’t cheap

Cost about £600 so not cheap at all but worth its weight in gold! One of my favourite tools for sure!

And people always wonder "why does X cost so much?" I've bought a few home DIYer in the past and no, that newly installed bathroom isn't going to push me to asking price.

It's not going to work unless your floor has exactly zero fluctuations. By scribing the bottom first and then sanding the bottom to match the floor profile, it will be fine until you scribe the back and then cut that to profile and then set it 10-20 mm back from where it was scribed perfectly to the floor. It's a great way to do it, but this is always going to be something to be conscientious about.

Yeah, that is a very good point to be fair. It’s worked out very well on all of the ones i have done in the past but understand it would affect it if the floor was massively out. Thank you for watching and for the feedback!👍🏼

So what’s the solution ? Because if you did the side first the problem will occur when the bottom drops after

@mwjoinery

@@1spiders1 There isn’t much of a solution (or at least I haven’t found one yet). I always do the floor first as it only has to slide back 10-20mm or so. If it ends up ever so slightly out on the floor, it’s not too bad as it will be sealed anyway. In all the times i have tried it, it’s only had very small gaps which will seal easily. As for the wall cut, i always do that second just because i want that to be perfect to the wall because it won’t be getting sealed. Thank you for the comment!

Could you not do both scribes simultaneously? Four bits of wood, four clamps, one scribe line that traverses the wall and floor in one go?

@nielsvanvlerken3398

​​@@1spiders1there isnt really one. Template it if you want to make it perfect. Otherwise scribing with smaller stock would already improve results a lot if the floor/wall is out by a lot. The smaller the stock, the smaller the offset from the actual position you are scribing to.

Easier way, flip the end panel upside down an opposite to the way u want it finished, transfer ur line across the top of base unit onto the end panel & cut, now fit it correct way up an round.. ot will fit perfect an the nasty cut side will be on the inside facing under the unit leaving the outside view with a beautiful cut line an not chipmarks.. 😇

I agree that is the easiest way but unless the wall and floor is perfectly flat, you can be left with small gaps. Still a good way of doing it though so thanks for the comment👍🏼

I can’t say I’ve ever used them. Keep meaning to get some ordered because they do look pretty good

But then you end up with an unprotected side on the floor...any moisture will blow the end panel

If the floor was level and didn’t need scribing, I would keep a machined edge to the floor. When i do cut the bottom I always protect the cut edge then seal around it. Should have probably mentioned that in the vid👍🏼

I’m not sure which brand i used but it was just some general purpose clear silicone

And all of this can be done without extra wood, just by flipping- easier and faster.

Very nice…. But it doesn’t help when builders can’t do flat walls and floors….. 80% of the times I scribe panels, plastering is crap. Why do you sand edges after cutting!? And it’s a must to seal at least bottom edge. Water proof wood glue is the best

@mwjoinery

Ай бұрын

Thank for the comment! Doing it like this does actually scribe it to the floor. That’s why I sanded it. I cut it to the nearest points possible to my line then sanded any curves. I do also do that and then seal with clear silicone when the rest of them are done but completely forgot this part in the video😆 Thanks again👍🏼

maybe make the 2x2 a bit shorter to follow the wall

@mwjoinery

It seemed to work ok for this one in particular because the wall and floor wasn’t too far out. I get what you are saying though and i would definitely agree with you! I’ll probably use a smaller bit in future. Thank you for watching!
