I'm doing cabinets in my new kitchen in a few weeks! This couldn't have come at a better time!

Clear and concise. Nicely done, Ben!

Nice cabinets. Hanging cabinets is where the fun is. Especially by yourself....

Put a cleat to rest cabinets on. Of course, take doors off. Level it, get a 1x2 that is perfectly level. Rent a laser level.

Good job buddy 👍👌✌️ I love to work with wood..I made all of my kitchen cabinets out of cedar .

Thanks Benji! Great Video and Bonus tip at the end!

Thank you. Your content is always fantastic!

Ol Benjamin is a pretty fart smeller, I mean a pretty smart feller 😁 I have been watching him for some time and I have to say I'm pretty proud of the things he has taken on and accomplished!🇺🇲

Seems so simple, but recommendations/suggestions on a 12" wall cabinet.where even my smallest drill wont fit? I have hung 4 15" cabinets nicely, then a 12" but i put a 1 7/8 spacer ip to the wall and split out the back of the spacer because I started my pilot hole on such an angle

Why not use a pilot bit with a countersink attached? It would make the job a lot simpler...

@@zanderesp4295 he uses an 1/8 bit

Big box stores sell screws with tiny heads

Always locked the frames in first them used did final shim. Most box cabinets are not square.

Or buy the right tool to counter sink so all screws are at the same depth...cpunter sink drill bit is on a few bucks

You need to call him back and tell him to do it right or give you your money back.

My question is if the face frames have a slite over hang on each side won't the cabinet require a shim at the back to level the sides,why doesn't' he mention this,seems this is just as important if not more so and how do you get that shim at the back lower side of the two cabinets.,why do all of these guys recommend an over hang on face frames in the first place.

Why in the hell would you use duck screws on cabinets a Box of a 100 is only $7

excuse me the led lights are flashing to turn on

Youre using a screw designed to counter sink itself, confused on why you drilled the counter sink.

Designed to counter dink in soft wood not hardwood like the frames. They would split.

@@ClumsyCars It only takes a few seconds to drill a countersink, it sucks when the project is almost done and you have to start over because it cracked the face frame. It's only happened to me once but that's one time too many.

First!

Use pony clamps instead of hand clamps. Use EZ-Level system instead of shims. You’re welcome.
