Appreciate you showing every step along the way. Thank you for explaining this!
My pleasure...glad it was helpful. Wes
I have done this with a router bit to produce this locking joint but like to do it on the table saw as well. I follow the quarter, quarter, quarter method so the fence is set once and leave it for all the grooves. The only change is when I want a 1/2” thick bottom. No fussing, set it and leave it.🇨🇦👍👨🦳
Thank you...sounds great! Wes
Es un gran maestro en la carpintería, lo felicito, me encanta su trabajo, saludos desde Santiago de chile.
Nice piece of practical detail .
I really enjoy your videos. And your relaxed approach. Keep it up. From Manchester in uk
I really liked this one. I’m making storage cabinets under my work benches. I’ll be using your butt joint method for the drawer boxes.
Gary...I am so glad you found some value in this video. I appreciate you visiting and good luck with your storage cabinets. Wes
Great tutorial! Thanks for taking the time to share. Really enjoyed your style of presentation. Easy to follow instruction, along with a calm and unhurried demonstration.
I sincerely appreciate your comment and thanks for visiting the channel. Wes
Another great video Wes! I’ve used the lock joint quite q lot in the past, it’s a strong joint and you explained it beautifully 👍👍👍👍
Thank you John...glad you enjoyed it.
Thank you, your videos are very helpful
Jeff...I really appreciate your comment because that's what keeps me making videos! Thanks for watching.
Hi Wess. I have watched almost all your clips and have found them all useful, except this one. This is a very nice technique but I loose you after you put the sacrificial board . I can not figure out what you do after that. I wish you had gone a little bit slower. It is a good idea to write on pieces as which one is the side and which one is the back. I have spent a few hours and I can not get the last part. Is after sacrificial board related to the before sacrificial or it is an independent technique ?
Great Job Wes 😉👍🏽📐✏️🪚🔨
Thanks 👍
Gracias señor ! Thanks brother god blessed you
thanks
Would a router be easier than a table saw for all these cuts?
I remodeled my kitchen with Home Depot cabinets... the drawers are falling apart. I'm going to build new drawers with really good sliders. Thanks for the video!
That is awesome! Good luck, glad this video helped. Wes
Wes, I missed something. The second joinery shows to creating the 1/8” rabbit but not the slot on the side panel?
Beautiful work sir! The drawer looks very strong and sturdy. The ones I got from HD are almost 4 years old and started to fall apart in the 1st year.... not a fan of them at all. I'm just planning to change their color from cherry to something brighter, my husband promised to paint them.... he's not the handiest but knows how to paint 🤭😂
Thanks for sharing and I appreciate the compliment. Wes
I think the 1/4 1/4 1/4 system would improve speed some.
I really cant imagine you really build drawers this way being a production shop. Im sure your cnc cuts them out, If you rabbet 3/8" you could nail from the front eliminating filling nail holes.
Brian...thanks for your comment. Yes I do build my drawers exactly as I explained. For video purposes, I was showing some of the options available for table saw cut drawer corners.
Wes, I’m curious what your building your drawers with now that Baltic birch is not available or will not be available in the very near future?
This is an issue for all of us who have used Baltic birch for drawers. If anyone has a suggestion, I am listening. Thanks, Wes
@@WoodworkingWithWes some of my suppliers where I live are considering the idea of selling poplar that has been milled down to 5/8. It’s certainly going to be a big adjustment.
My hope is a domestic mill would create a similar product to Baltic birch.
When I did cabinets my boss would have killed someone if they hit the fence on the fancy saw stop
So edge banding is not more of a clean look for tops of drawers
Takes too long
