@@Jer_Schmidt and am wondering did you do that for all the drawers lol. You are crazy but crazy good sometime and it is an amazing system.

Positively genius! This idea is perfect not only for shop/work storage, but kitchen, bathroom, bed room and craft room. Thank you so much. Saw this n showed it to my brother he is refitting my craft room kitchen and jewelry drawer. Now I can dump plastic organizers that shift n crack or fall over and this will last much longer and be beautiful when finished. The kitchen it's organizing my cooking utensils, tea drawer. The added twist is it can be moved and refitted to new home just by leaving bottom grid free and refitting or remaking for new place. It also saves on packing time for stuff just leave it in boxes and pack it. All the grids are uniform. Just perfectly genius!

This is the first of your videos I've come across, but now that I've seen your style and content, it certainly won't be the last! I greatly appreciate how clearly you explain and demonstrate your techniques. And your editing represents a very creative and effective way to use time-lapse to illustrate complete series of events without taking too much time. Well done sir!

This should be on prime time Channel 4 here in the UK. Simply wonderful. Entertaining and educational, what more can you ask for.

This is an amazing idea. One idea. You don't really need to prevent the boxes from moving side to side. Just back and forth in the drawer. So you only really need rows of strips in the drawers, not squares.

Jay is good at marketing himself and gaining sponsors with no so called "strings" attached. SawStop gave him that saw he uses. He has also obtained many other tools over the last year or so. April has many sponsors. Almost all of her tools in her shop were given to her. She has a lot. She is a woodworker, but Lincoln gave her a $1200 welder, so she made a video using it. She is also a Triton spokes person. They came to her to do an interview. Pretty awesome. Anyway this is getting long, sorry about that.

@Casper - it would still work. Nicholas is saying that the grid in the drawer only needs the catches from right to left in order to hold the boxes from sliding to the back and forth of the drawer. If you rotate the boxes 90 degrees it would still stop the boxes from sliding forward and backwards. The only thing it wouldn't stop is sliding the boxes from side to side in the drawer.

Indeed, was my first thought, after the first long strip glue up, just re cut the dadoes, and then you can pop in more long pieces for the cross.

You are right, - no machine tool is safe at that distance. I've used those dangerous push sticks for 20 years now. Not even close to a single incident during that time. All I say - it is not about what kind of push stick you use - it's about knowing what the machine tool does, how the wood react, being alert and concentrated at all times and not getting sloppy. If you treat the "helping tools" right, it doesn't matter if you use this or that kinda pushtool. It's just as easy / hard to get hurt on either one of them - it's about healthy respect for the machines. But of course - you should use what is comfortable for you, that's gonna be the safest. I don't say it's not safe to use a "proper" pushtool - I just say I don't agree that the stick (when treated right and with respect) is an unsafe option.

Couldn't have you done without an entire grid in the bottom of the drawer and only have cut rows of grooves? Since there is little to no side to side movement when you open a drawer, there shouldn't be any concern of the boxes moving in such a manner. It would lessen the build time and it may be convenient to shift things from side to side. I'm talking with nearly no carpentry skills though... so you can probably just ignore me.
