    I am a newcomer to your videos. This is the first one that I have watched and I find it so refreshing to see someone put craftsmanship into a project rather than assembly line construction. You explain every reason why you do something a particular way and it makes so much sense. I think I have found a new favorite woodworking channel.
  • @brokenglass849
    For the average guy, this is the kind of video that is the most useful. Most of us have a limited assortment of wood working tools, limited space and are left to work with poorer quality wood. Thanks for the great tips and showing how to do some woodworking without 25K worth of state of the art equipment in a three car garage LOL.
  • @gregtaylor3432
    FWIW: Pegboard cut into strips makes a good positioning jig for shelf pins
  • This has to be one of your best videos. I’ve been following you for quite a while and I really appreciate how you teach in a different manner. It’s actually really refreshing to learn things rather than hearing the same mantra
  • @acrocha1222
    OMG Best Video Ever! Finally someone explains the steps to using solid wood for cabinets without glossing over too much and at the same time keeping the whole build simple and achievable for the average Joe! Bravo. Btw I really enjoy how you make your workshop look classy and functional!
  • love it! I have a forest of pine. I was toying with the idea of making kitchen cabinets entirely from pine from the forest. Now I know it will be doable and look great. Have sawmill, will saw! Thankyou you saved me a TON of cash in plywood casings. great video
  • @brucesearl4407
    Pine has never looked better! Great video and great work creating a beautiful set of cabs for your shop.
  • @LLOR
    You always take the time and effort to make all your projects beautiful no matter what materials you use. Looks super professional
  • @JasonWWallace
    Just found this channel thanks to the magic of the algorithm. Thanks YouTube!! Great channel. Very nice sound and video quality. Also, never would have thought to make panels out of pine to build cabinets instead of ply. GENIUS!
  • @QuintenLansu
    It's fantastic how you go over each step in such detail, and point out the mistakes you have *prevented*! And it must be said, the end result looks amazing!!
  • @jonathanzj620
    Actual woodworking tips and not just more YouTuber BS. Another banger from Scotty B Walsh
  • @e-vd
    I've been thinking about making cabinets out of edge-jointed, solid wood for a while now. Seeing this video has revived my motivation to give it a shot. Thanks, Scott Walsh! 👍🏻
  • @user-xw4gr9kn8n
    I will never stop using plywood. And I would use it over pine any day of the week because it's stronger, less prone to warping, and I can get a selection of veneers to match the doors and drawer fronts. I prefer oak for doors and drawer fronts for its looks and durability. Pine is too soft to take the abuse of a kitchen cabinet door or drawer front. Cheers.
  • @CastorBate
    Have to say, this is the first video I watched from you, and it definitely has the most comedic value than any other woodworking/how-to/DYI/etc. I have watched😄 Also it feels very down to earth type of doing. Very good👍🏼
  • @pibblesnbits
    These are far nicer than most household cabinets that I have seen. Great work! Love it!
  • @user-py4mk2zb9r
    First video of yours I have seen, subscribed. Love the detailed step by step instructions and craftmanship
  • @michaeldoto4673
    That beaded shiplap is stunning! I’m a huge fan of how beautiful aged pine looks.
  • @FracturedNinja
    I recently started a project building custom shelving in my walk in closet and when I was pricing wood sanded plywood was cheaper than similar pine in my area (Nashville TN). Especially when you take into account the time savings associated with the plywood vs glue ups etc. And when using plywood no cupping issues etc.
  • @u2bist
    Having grown up with plywood being cheaper than solid lumber, the new paradigm is weird to me. But making panels out of pine is actually really fun. I've been doing it using a biscuit joiner for years and years. Two new things you taught me in this video: the I/O trick (one of those "why didn't I think of that?" ideas) and doing a quick hand planing to clean up unevenness in the joints. I've always just sanded, but hand planing seems like a time saver. Great video!
  • @RichardRecupero
    First time watching your content. Can’t say I’ll make cabinets this way but I’m blown away with what you can do in a small area. Like wow.
