In this video, you'll learn step-by-step how to build a custom DIY dog crate that is both stylish and functional for your furry friend: www.familyhand...
I'm in the process of building a similar piece and had some questions on the door. How did you ensure the pipes alignment, I saw when you opened yours it's not as smooth as it could be (i'm betting from the clearances between the small pipes in the big pipes). Also how well does that epoxy hold at the door end, with it sticking during open/closing I'm concerned about it not holding long term.
I got the plans in my magazine but before I start I am confused about the side panel. The specs call for the plywood to be 23 1/4" x 33 3/4". I think it should read 30 1/4" W x 34 1/4"H (to match the top rail and Back ply height). Am I getting this wrong? Also is the frame aligned with the base at the bottom or is it centered over the base?
Yeah, I’m working on this now and found multiple errors with the dimensions of the pieces. The problem is that I trusted the plans and then cut all my pieces and surprise! They don’t line up and dimensions are wrong. Too bad the Senior Project editor didn’t check the dimensions before they published it. I’m pretty disappointed.
@@mbwtrpolo I never started this because of the measurements being off. I like to build my projects in sketchup first since I work out all the problems in there first. Some parts are also unclear in the construction and I like views from each side. I will do it first in sketchup. Did you build the dog crate? How did it come out?
I’m in the middle of this build and have realized after all this work that the dimensions are off.. and the instructions are not very clear on how everything should align. Really great project idea but super annoyed that the dimensions are wrong.
Shocker, to make stuff you need to have tools and materials. Who’d a thunk it. Obviously if you have the equipment you can use it for this and so much more and this video is geared toward those who regularly use this equipment. Anyway you don’t even need most of this equipment.
Its beautiful. Needs a locking mechanism though
Nice looking project…thanks for posting
Great idea and it looks good 👍
This is really nice, but was hoping for videos made with basic hand tools. Not everyone has miter saw, drill press, etc.
You don’t need all those things, a simple, circular saw, and a drill can accomplish the same thing
I was hoping at the end of the video he was going to transfer me $10,000. But this video really disappointed me.

What size planks did you use?
How many ch did this cost in materials

NIce build .. however it would be a good idea to have a dog escape door
It really is a nice idea, although is there a way to replicate the idea but in the style of the dog cage, transforming it into a transport tank?
The LISP on this one is STRONG!! Way too much room between those bars!!
Copper is poisonous for dogs?
I’ll bet your water travels through copper pipes.
About how much will this cost?
About 3.000R₽
So all I need to make my dog a bed crate is thousands of dollars worth of equipment?! WICKED!
@THHSLunchTutoring no but I'm sure there's a way of doing it with a lot more basic tools.
Most of this is pretty basic. Of course you can do it with a hammer, nails and a hand saw. To build this specifically you would also need a drill.

I’m a girl and I myself already have all these tools. You don’t have to spend thousands lol
@shelbyanderson7283 congratulations on being a girl 👧 👏
And..it's made of wood. Nice try.
