Well done! It's excellent technique to use 1/2" plywood with 1/4" grooves in drawers of any reasonable size. Much stronger and not much extra work or cost. Lots of old plywood drawer bottoms are wavy and/or falling out of their grooves. The space underneath a thin bottom is wasted anyway, might as well fill it with wood.

100% agree here - BUT be careful of the types of slides you are intending to use. BLUM under-mounts for example need that space for the slide hardware. For side mounting slides its a no-brainer, gives you additional gluing surface on the bottom and simplifies sanding/finishing the drawer. Costs probably go up a little but does reduce the types of ply in your inventory.

“Drahs”… just one of many reasons we love you Tamar!

Howdy! A little tip from a cabinet maker, you don’t need the screws on the draws. Your strength comes from your glue joint. Simply glue the joints and tack them with a brad nailer just to hold the joint until the glue dries. I tried to take draws apart built like this and the plywood breaks before the glue joint gives. Otherwise great job! Love your videos!

Love this video! Before you remove the front from the bending form, you could use the flat side of the bending form with a flush cut bit on the router to cut your first square edge, then run the other side through the table saw. Also, angling your screws parallel with the drawer front would allow longer fasteners without blowing through the face.

You jig is good. We weren't going to do that though (even if we had thought of it) I came up with clamping the piece to the fence along the miter saw... put the clamp in the middle. And then measure how far each end was from the fence, and tweaking the clamp until each end of the curved board was the same distance away from the fence. That's how I knew it was square lol.

Beautiful project Tamar! I am so glad you chose to laminate your curves, excellent choice because they are typically stronger and not as heavy (vs solid wood), also not as likely to crack because of seasonal changes and time. I think veneer laminating would be most ideal for control and consistency overall, but the thin ply definitely works for quick simple (get it done) projects. The reason I say control and consistency is because when you use plywood, you have to assume that their glue will last as long as yours and there are no layer holes in their lamination. When you use solid wood laminate sheets you can guarantee all the layers have no gaps, plus, if you want to do some engraving, you can basically treat it like solid wood or be creative (like we know you would, lol) and use different types of sheets for a unique visual affect.😉 Because you are using a double front, no need to relief cut the box front, just butt cut it to fit inside the sidewalls to maximize your front screw thickness and all you need to do is slightly angle the preholes from the 'draw' wall through the front into the middle portion of the curve which will keep the screws in the thickest section of the front. Predrilling with course thread screws gives you the best grip on the joints in every direction, of course thickness will always determine the type of screw. I try to use finish head screws in those type applications because you are pulling against the shaft of the screw rather than pulling against the screw head, as a butt joint. Besides, the outer finish piece can be glued on or attached with screws from the inside of the 'draw' anyway, covering the whole face.😁 The other nice thing about finish head screws is no need to countersink because you control how deep below the surface they go, so no slide interference.🙂 Predrilling is definitely a must for a tight fit and to prevent separation of the plywood or lamination. Can't wait to see final project results.😁👍👌🤙

I love round tables. Haven’t done one with drawers before. I hadn’t heard of Wiggle Wood (because that is my favorite name you listed it will be forever thus called 😂) but I have done curved plywood and hardwoods on *much* smaller projects after I found an online kerf calculator several years ago. Plug and play numbers make me happy 🥰. The calculator is really quite awesome and the added router bit option too and the ability to save templates. Basically it is kind of the same concept as your collapsible bowls. But you cut at certain intervals with a saw or tapered router bit to make it bend to the dimensions you want without breaking the back and the front points come together as positive stops. Glue it up and finish how you want. Not sure you know about it or something you have experimented with it. (Newer to your channel so haven’t watched all your vids yet). But thought it could be interesting for you 🙂

I did my first project with bendable birch ply in a college ww class in 1999. I ve learned a few things... 1. Adding glue to the forms is recommended. Some students did not, and the mdf layers on their forms did move slightly. Even a little is enough to introduce a slight warp. 2. PVA glue isn't ideal for the lamination because it does creep a little over time. Epoxy or urea resin glue is ideal, although not as easy to use. 3. Kickbacks can be dangerous when cutting curved parts on the table saw. It was bulky, but I used the bending form as a sled on the table saw to provide more support. It also kept my curve 90 degrees to the straight edge.

@justin.booth.

That's a really good idea to use the form as a sled (or more likely the lighter version), but in this case wouldn't the height of the piece be an issue? I feel like you would have to raise the table saw blade that even if it fits it would be very sketchy.
