    Love it! Don't underestimate the appeal of simple project videos like this. Probably the first time I saw an amazing looking (+functional) project and thought "I can absolutely do that with my contractor table saw and other tools in my garage". An eventual playlist for this simple tools series would be great.

    Ok last comment. Having an AirBNB full of stuff you made that fans can rent just to geek out and look at first hand is a brilliant idea. Also that bathroom cabinet design is amazing.

    This also works behind a door in small spaces. Love the cherry, my favorite wood. One small suggestion since this is a rental. Put a small piece of trim to hold in the shelves. With wood movement it may not always be a snug fit. Love your videos, your one of the few youtubers that has stuck your roots with actually build stuff. Thank you for great continent!

    • @Rickmakes
      @Rickmakes Před 27 dny +1

      I was thinking the same thing. I ordered some from a glass shop for my medicine cabinet. They were 1/4" thick with a polished edge. Of course you need to order the correct size since it can't be cut after tempering.

    • @Take-the-Ticket

    Something that I love about your channel, compared to all the other woodworking channels out there, is your use of color and camera style. The last shot of the video with the bright orange medicine cabinet, contrasted by the baby blue walls, in addition to your orange shirt and blue pants is the perfect example. Very pleasing to the eye.

  • @zachpygall3063

    Nice project 😊 It would have been nice to see you scribe for the decorative frame, that’s something that would really be useful in future fitted furniture videos. I would have chosen to screw it in place rather than nails though, otherwise it will be destroyed if anyone decides to remove it one day :(

    Would it be possible, in all of your project videos, to place a little bit of text, either at the start or end, where you just put "Total number of hours worked (insert hours), and total number of days until completion (insert days)"?
    One thing I always wish woodworking channels disclosed was just how long it took to make a project... how many hours, or days, or weeks, etc. I feel so slow when I build, but the magic of editing means I have no reference for knowing what timeline you and other big creators work on.
