I feel so relieved when Scott Brown "messes up" a routing job, uses "the wrong" joint etc. Makes me feel a lot better about all the botch jobs and mess ups that I do constantly. Thank you so much for keeping it real!

As an amateur with woodworker, i typically feel overpowered with the entire arrangement kzread.infoUgkxrYREG3-7f1Aqk9ams3ZESRNzGnfdUtyQ . Be that as it may, this arrangements drove me through with much clarity and effortlessness woodplans. Works i now work like a genius. That is great!

I built drawers in my truck that are inspired by your van and I couldn't be happier. Such a good use of space, it basically doubles the amount of space in my truck. Thanks for the great content and ideas!

Watching this to relax on a stressful day.

I made my own rails for my van. Quote was $1500 for runners to do what I wanted so I made mine from 20mm box pipe and skateboard bearings. Works well and can take heaps of weigh (140kg per bearing).

Adding a small notch to the hinge side of the drawer to let the top boxes open up smoothly without having to pop them out somewhat would be a nice touch.

Fan from Sweden here. I have a small garageworkshop, tip from a multiple small child father: nothing takes care of glue squeeze out like baby wipes. Buy unperfumated from the grocery store and keep in your van👍👍 Thanks for great content!

Looks great. Hoping to fit out my mini van with a similar system soon. I appreciate you sharing all the improvements so I can avoid those mistakes.

Always comforting to see a video from you Scott, I spent a couple weeks just watching every video and now i feel like i have withdrawls waiting for the news to come!!

Lovely build mate. I liked that you left the cut edges exposed for a bit of contrast. Wasn't so sure one putting a black fascia on panel though. I though you might revamping the whole van. I'm sure people have already said this but painters tape on the bottom edge of the table saw cut is your friend. A sharp blade helps too :)

What is it about Scott's videos?! They're informative, interesting, and strangely relaxing. Maybe it's the music or that occasional B-roll of life in New Zealand. Thanks SBC!

it's funny, i'm a builder and i am often so tired after work, but watching you build just makes me sooo excited. Love your work bro.

Hey Scott, you can probably also get a Zero clearance plate for your table saw or make one. This will give you less tear out Nice Job man

Gday Scott, Josh here. Just a thought but would adding a single leg, maybe on a hinge or something be something you’d consider adding? Just noticed the flex when you lean on it. Could be a good addition as the added rigidity could even be used as an additional work space. Really enjoy your content, All the best, Josh

Whether using track saw or table saw, if wanting to prevent chipping in veneer or finer plywood, you can masking tape over the cut line before the cut. Also performing the cut more quickly can help.

excellent video Scott...Many thanks

Great job Scott!!, please stay safe.

I just get so happy watching your videos man!!

Nice upgrade on the glides. Always feels good to make things right.

Simply awesome Scott!

Nice work Scott. Pleasure to watch

Hope you're keeping busy during lockdown again Scott. Stay safe mate

Very nice Scott I like the ingenuity so much tools such little space

So the ply has been there since last lockdown and you've just managed to squeeze it before this lockdown. Close timing. We had just started back at the same place as lockdown March 2020. Part way into a concrete post and panel Slatecrete fence.

Good job Scott!

I am almost done with my first apprenticeship in Germany. But since I watch your videos I am seriously considering doing something like carpentry or other building related afterwards as a second apprenticeship. Keep it up mate, very cool videos. Greetings from Germany ✌️

nice work and well thought out

Hi Scott, I like your ideas and builds are really inspirational and this drawer is great! As you said you can use a larger piece of pipe to store your recip saw, in the space left (from the side) you could use to store batteries, so you have them always at hand without opening a systainer, or if you really want to get funky, mount a charger over there, hook it up to your van electronic system (should find a charger on 12v 😎) and charge your batteries while you drive 😀. Keep going this way!

Much improved with the dadoes! Really like the orange laminate too!

Indeed an exciting episode!

You are a Master Craftsman Scott 👌🏽

Homemade zero clearance insert plate will help clean up the underside cut on the table saw. Won’t beat a plunge saw though.

@Scott Brown carpentry, now you need a Foam cutter so you can use foam/insulationboard to make custom fits for your stuff.

For your system 2s get some 50mm webbing cut a strip. Fix it to the back and let some hang out of the front. All you need to do is tug on it and will eject the box easier than trying to pinch it out. A bit the a batter compartment with the ribbon to help remove batteries.

I can’t recommend highly enough the Forrest Hi-A/T blade for incredibly clean cuts both top and bottom. They’re the only blades I use in my shop.

Great job mate!

I love your Van build videos

Nicely done.

I bought a track saw last year, had to wait 3 months for a 2.6m rail but my god. Worth it for cutting ply and mdf.

Hi Scott, another great video. Is there a rule to determine how deep to cut rebates? 20% of the thickness or whatever? Thanks.

Nice work. They sell the rabbet router bits for cutting rabbets/rebates along the edge of your workpiece. I know they have some sort of sled for the router so it will ride on your Makita track for cutting the dados.

Your the man Scott nice strong job

Fast cap makes some third hands that are very similar to the bessey clamps you used to install the drawer into your truck and for what I do they are prolly the most important tool I use. We mitigate water damaged cabinets without pulling the counter and something has to hold that granite up.

Like many, when I first started out I was using a personal vehicle, which often meant having to pull half the stuff out to get to what I needed. This is better.

Nice job Scott

Scott I use a 80 or 100 tooth blade to cut plywood along with a zero clancere insert on the table saw.

Nice work!

Glad the drummer is still at it

Liking the metabo router and that hose adapter. Lot better than mine

Greetings from the colonies Scott, I have the same style drawer slides in my pick up truck. I built 3 drawer slides and with in 6 months 5 of the locking tabs have broken off. Be careful with those slides. They can handle the weight but the clips can’t.

That is such a cool pencil ✏️ 👍

Hey Scott I drilled some tiny holes in my makita sustainers and put a bit of nylon string from one to the other to make a handle. Really helps when pulling them out of shelf. 👍

Thanks mate

Very cool. Maybe a Little hole cut behind the lower boxes so you can nudge them out from behind when they're heavy? 👌

Great drawers beautifully made .. problem here in London being a jobbing chippy .. you wouldn't be able to use drawers .. because you need the length of the van to access them . Parking is a major headache

Nice... Going back and fourth on my next vehicle ....van or pickup

Hey Scott, have you tried making a zero clearance insert for your job site saw? It'll be an easy project and should help minimize tear-out.

If it was perforated with holes would that help reduce the weight without weakening the structure? Might also allow dust etc to filter to bottom which could fall into a tray. Wheels are a good idea. Loving the attention to quality detailing

Very slick. 👍👍

Hey bro, long time watcher, first time commenter. Love the vids! To avoid the veneer tearout on your ply. You can make a zero clearance infill piece for your tablesaw top. Easy enough to make out of ply. Chur!

You almost think you knew what you were doing; that's how it should have been done the first time. Awesome, fix Scott. Play safe from Elliot Lake, Ontario, Canada.

Sorry to hear you guys are back in lockdown

All you need is your string thingy on the release and your set🔨 How’s lockdown treating you day 2 looks like clear sky’s so far

I use a piece of green tape over the area I’m cutting if it has a laminate/ veneer whatever. I haven’t had any chips come off on me yet.

Sweet… 👍🏼🪚 The draw of glory…

Happy lockdown Chris.

Love your system with layout. I'm awful with marking what piece goes where. This gives me hope.

Great build, more solid. are you going to reinstate the pull unlatch? Any need for a drop down peg leg to support the drawer while fully extended for loading and unloading?

Hey Scott, love the videos! Also very nice looking drawers but I thought maybe as a small upgrade, if you made cutouts for systainer 3s locks, you could open them without needing to take them out of the drawers. Just an idea to think about. Best wishes, Jonas from Norway/Lithuania. :) Edit: Added love.

@davidlowson100

As a follow-up to this: Scott if you watch yourself opening the sys 3 in the drawer, the action of the lid actually lifts/levers the whole sustainer up. This will be putting strain on the hinge and will mean that the box can not be left open (for example while searching for a bit or something in the box) without you holding it, as the weight will automatically be pulling it down. Scott if you cut/rout down the side piece slightly this won't happen. Of course then you lose your auto-close mechanism, which you designed in deliberately. Right? 😜

Kinda makes the point of the systainers redundant doesn't it? Keeping all your tools in a small, easy to carry box saves you having to carry a bunch of loose tools back and forth to the van. It would be convenient for when you only need one or two tools but how often does that really happen?

Love the channel mate . Fantastic skills and thinking to go with it. … but the weight is probably going to be the ongoing issue. And the leverage when the drawer is fully extended.

hey scott if you tape the cut on the ply it can also help stop the splintering

Thank you for good video

Quite often these drawer runners are rated at the shortest length available.... so a 250kg rating is for say the 500mm runner then it drops as you go up in length. They don’t tell you this though

cool vid, stay safe this lockdown.

Looking nice

Good work bro

Amazing!

Very smart 👌

For years I cut ply with a sacrificial board underneath like you are doing here to avoid chip out. But then I used to get heaps of burn marks on my edges which wouldn’t sand out. Now I usually cut with the sheets raised above the bench. You don’t seem to get scorch marks. I wonder what I was doing wrong…
