    In this video I demonstrate how to make a very simple, yet fully functional, bookcase from relatively cheap materials AND using basic tools. Then, once it's made, I show you how you can dress it up a bit more with some custom molding and I even add a fun little secret hidden drawer! Give the video a watch to see me teach a friend of mine how to use some tools to make this great-looking bookcase for her house and then head over to my website to pick up the plans for yourself!

    Wow Drew, how did you find such a humble sponsor?
    This was a fun project! I like how you were able to keep it simple and then also gave the option of giving it some Fischer’s Shop flair! Might make for a cool series!

      ...man I don't know...The stories on that sponsor. Theft of materials from neighbors, using flat head screws. I mean, can you REALLY trust a guy that would use Flat Head screws in today's age? I mean, it's not like he's building a wooden sailing vessel from the early 1900's and keeping it authentic or something.
      LOL!

    Look man, I can lose the remote all by myself!! Sitting in the same spot as when I last used it, meaning it should not be lost, since it’s within my reach. Yet I either have some remote gnomes around my house, or my remote has completed its ninja 🥷 training, so there is already plenty of deception going on without giving Mama a place to hide the remote from me as well!! 😂

      ​@@MCsCreations, I'd rather buy a new remote every day than let another one of those furry demons live in my house. We tried having 2 house cats. They shredded the back of my couch, and most of our mini blinds. Then they both snuck out the door and got knocked up. They were probably out partying with a bad crowd and smoking the Devil's lettuce. They were trouble makers. So, we ended up with 2 litters of kittens at the same time. Our 2 mama cats, who had been best buddies, suddenly hated each other and started fighting. There was constant hissing, and the occasional throwing of paws, until the kittens were gone. To top it all off, one of the little mini-demons they made climbed into one of the bass drums of my vintage '88 Pearl drum set and dropped a deuce. Luckily, my son turned out to be allergic to cats, so I got to re-home all of those felines from Hades. We are definitely dog people.

      @@dannyhale7645 I hate to admit it, but I was really secretly hoping that you didn’t find the little adventurer, Kittyana Jones 🐱 🥁, until you had stomped on the bass drum, thereby creating an earthquake for the little guy, and making it seem like it didn’t switch the stone for the treasure well enough and the big ball had been released.

    As per usual from you Drew a brilliant project but this time made from cheaper wood materials, love the hidden draw idea and the simple moulding that gives it that more expensive look i think your sponsor will be happy with this build, and it looks like your friend loves the build as well as her cat who now has a perfect seat with a view.

    Hi Mr. Fisher, I wanted to share with you how important your channel has been to my development as a carpenter/woodworker. I started watching your channel about five years ago when I was a senior at vocational school, your cutting board video was my first exposure, my teacher showed it to my class at the time. Now I am a senior at Virginia Tech majoring in Building Construction Management, with a few years of construction experience under my belt, and I still watch all of your videos when they come out. I have mimicked and learned a lot of my own skills and now I find myself teaching and mentoring others doing similar projects to this.
    Also the fact that you are a Christian such as myself is a great addition, your outlook on woodworking and enjoying the craft is something that I was able to relate to! I still revisit your old videos for project ideas, and the one I use most often is the idea of making bandsaw weave patterns and waves for cutting boards. Thank you for making such consistently great content and I hope you have a good day.

    Nice job Drew. I love bringing beginners in my shop. Working on another project with my son now. One thing I do with him is using the drill instead of impact driver when putting in pocket screws. Allows me to set the clutch so he doesn't drive the screw to China. Oh, yes... I too am incredibly, outrageously, unbelievably, and extraordinarily humble. Hope to see you at WBC next week.

    I have done woodworking off and on since highschool. Recently retired. I have the same Ridgid drill/driver set.
    About a year ago, I stopped using the driver for things like pocket holes. I prefer using the drill, and adjusting the clutch to about 60 or so to prevent stripping screws. I will adjust the clutch torque until I hit the correct setting.
