Exactly the kind of over engineering resulting in what is a simple and straightforward workflow that big daddy Hoff likes.

@RobbieRottun Год назад

This is the most over-engineered cabinet I've ever seen. Love it!

@eddyhuizinga Год назад

Wait, you couldn't put a regular door in because then you couldn't put anything on the counter… but then you make an extendable shelf that uses that same space… LOL! All kidding aside, wonderful craftsmanship once again and I love your enthusiasm! Love how the kitchen turned out!

@themanlihood Год назад

The difference is that the coffee machine is accessible regardless if there's stuff in the way.

@eddyhuizinga Год назад

@@themanlihoodYeah that's true 😄

@Martin3559 Год назад

Touché.

@maxid87 Год назад

Was gonna say the same. Also he made sure to align the wood grain perfectly everywhere else, but somehow chose to go all mixed when gluing this sliding door. I admire the engineering and think it's absolutely brilliant though. Could the door also be solved by having the dampers in two stages instead of two at the same stage?

@givemeanaccountdamit Год назад

Came here to write the same thing about the door impacting on horizontal storage space

@Jenn-ri4ld Год назад

You could add a counterweight to help slow it down when closing.

@rosserobertolli Год назад

@@alvaroampudia4382 If you attach it to the middle then it can go up/stretch both ways

@Khellendros_ Год назад

It's extremely well engineered and surely satisfying. I feel though there were a few simpler ways to do that. For instance this doesn't eliminate the need to keep the counter clear (so a tambour is not exactly a necessity) and if you're always swiveling the platform out, a full extension shallow drawer (or even just a shelf) would have done the trick. Just place the coffee machine facing you all the time (i.e. turn it counterclockwise 90° seen from the top) on a sliding shelf behind a hinged door and you've achieved 95% of the same functionality.

@paulreynolds8050 Год назад

Your capacity to think ahead and contemplate what challenges need to be overcome or engineered for is very impressive. Great work!

@rodrigososa2980 Год назад

why dont you add a counterweight to the back of the door? will make the door close slower. awesome work man. love your videos

@linnwarme Год назад

I was thinking the same thing! Kind of how old windows work

@mlrodenburg1990 11 месяцев назад

Then you need some extra dampers on the backside for the opening motion.

@brianemunroe Год назад

This is so next level! I mean, I thought the rolltop door was cool, but then you showed us the swiveling drawer, and then you showed us the specialized track design, and then you showed us the cable management...I mean, come on!! :-)

@chrisfernandez2219 Год назад

The amount of work you spent designing that pull out system = Chef's kiss. Beautiful work friend.

@jofuchs91 Год назад

Nice job! Although, you could have just made a regular drawer and rotated the coffee machine 90 degrees on that drawer, right?

@nateb7394 Год назад

That was my first thought. Cool project, though!!

@pranitaphadnis Год назад

exactly what i said

@jimmywannstrom5151 Год назад

Thats the simple solution. However if you had stuff laying around on the countertop you would have to clean it before accessing the coffee machine. Now if you feel lazy, you can use the machine without actually pulling the drawer out.

@JohnSvazic Год назад

Alex, I've always been impressed by your work and imagination. But holy hell man, this is AMAZING!!! Great job!

@magno5157 Год назад

What a missed opportunity not to drive the tray with the door and power it all with a servo such that when you nudge the door up a little, the motor kicks in, slides the door up, and pushes the tray out at the same time.... overengineer it all the way!! xD

@chepossofare 8 месяцев назад

That's AMAZING! I would only add some dumpening material on the wooden blocks on the back, so the "slam" when you close it is less noisy.

@giuseppe1912 Год назад

I think, each time I see your video, that my mind will blow up. As other says, you should add counter weight, or make the front thinner, or try to put a bigger gas spring, because in the next time(week, year or decades) the power of the little one will decide. But for everything you make fantastic things

@Jigglers010101 Год назад

Add a counter weight to the back edge (or hanging from the back edge) of the tambour door. That will make closing more gentle as well as making it easier to open. That's what they did on the old roll top desks. Fantastic videos. Been a fan for a long time. Please keep them coming!

@thecalvaro Год назад

I have the same idea, but then the opening will not be smooth. Maybe if you have a latch to have the counterweight grabbed on while closing and release when it is opening. Complicated, yes, but too simple will not be an Alex project. 😂

@marcowillems673 Год назад

This looks awesome. You could glue a rubber block on those stoppers so they don’t t make this loud noise when you let loose of the door

@Roberto-dk9ms Год назад

Maybe a counterweight on the back of the sliding door could help slowing it down when closing

@alxgag3 Год назад

Cool! A simple and less cool solution (from someone with the same kitchen layout): Buy the "garage door" pre-made, make the countertop go into the cabinet, and put felt pads (the type you put on furniture) under your coffee machine, grinder etc. and just slide them in and out. I've had it for around 1 year and it's great! (incl. high wife approval factor).

@SundusYousuf Год назад

This looks amazing. Love the mechanics on how it swings out. Next project would be to link the swinging out mechanics with the rolling doors so that it swings out automatically as you open it and also rolls down as you swing it back in.

@volgathebest Год назад

So much work summarized in this video! The fast-paced editing cutting all the bs gives the impression of being a fast job, but we can tell there's much time, effort, tests and expertise spent in this sliding door and drawer. Also, thanks for being so creative choosing new points of view for each shot, it's very pleasing to see.

@stephen-boddy Год назад

Feels like you need a governor to limit the speed of the tambour panel. Right now it would still smash your fingers if they between the panel and the top of the shelf if you were not yet caffeinated up.

@Obtuse94 Год назад

Incredible! Every day when you up for the morning coffee ritual, you can revel in opening and gliding the equipment around.

@MichelGoy Год назад

Please, do something about that finger guillotine! Counter weights or a reversed door closing wire is what I would suggest. Apart from that, it looks amazing! Really cool build!

@JoelRavier Год назад

This is incredible. The amount of engineering, advance planning, and attention to detail is insane.

@movm Год назад

Your tambour door could be as thin as an ice cream stick without compromising usability because the fabric behind it adds a ton of strength to it if you use good glue. Furthermore, counter weights which spring into action mid way will work better than a pressure gas spring. More so if you use tension gas springs or invisible door shock gas springs. Cool project nonetheless. I love doing these kinds of projects as well but I don't have the space.

@namewarvergeben Год назад

The fabric doesn't provide any rigidity against inward bending, which could be quite significant on a large flat surface as this. That could add friction to the point of jamming or derailing the whole thing, and generally make it feel flimsy I suppose the strips could be made hollow without losing too much rigidity, but that might not be worth the extra effort Other than that, I agree on the counterweights

@Helveteshit Год назад

I suspect he did that, because he had material at hand and it is bit more manageable to work with when using saws and stuff.

@abz.a Год назад

Excellent work! Would be amazing if the whole contraption just came out and turned just by lifting up the door!!

Other good reason for the pull-out drawer... If you didn't pull the coffeemaker out while you were using it, you'd (eventually) steam the canvas backing off the door.

@BLBlackDragon Год назад

Ok, that is a very slick setup. I love it. One concern... the camera angle on the roll-top makes it look like it can still catch a finger on the edge of the coffee tray. Maybe get a piston with a longer draw? An extra 2 cm should ensure the fingers don't get caught.

@kart1241 5 месяцев назад

“And the whole thing…HA!” 😂 Sir, you’ve done it again! Really cool idea presented really well. I love it. 🍻 2 downward closers was my first thought, and I’m surprised it turned out less effective than I expected. Really living with it, personally, is most days it would remain open. I could probably just lower it further by hand when the time comes to close it. Btw, I enjoy how well your foresight works out! The whole project really comes together well and you seem to have been very successful at preparing for untested ideas implemented later.

@porchetpierre-alexandre5732 Год назад

for the slinding door, if it's not enough, as said by other, you could use a counterweight, but you could also une a gas strut form a car (a small one). im not sure it's heavy enough but it worth a try. Wonder motion on the drawer by the way.

@bjrn-oskarrnning2740 Год назад

Suggestion for the filter bit for the coffee machine: make something that holds and keeps it over the sink. Those things tend to drip for a while after washing, so you wanna keep it somewhere it can drip without ruining anything, at least temporarily, so why not permanently? Maybe a wall mounted holder with a joint: folded down and out it can drip dry over the sink, then be folded up and out of the way.

@thecount888 Год назад

Just dry the portafilter with a towel after washing. If you use an espresso machine regularly, you are constantly wiping it down to keep it from getting gross.

@Zockmock Год назад

@IAmKyleBrown Год назад

@phungphan2245 11 месяцев назад

I wonder if you could 3d print a magnetic device for the tracks that uses induction to soft close it without the pistons. Kinda like what roller coasters use to stop the rides.

@sierraecho884 9 месяцев назад

There are similar products on the market, it´s basically a piece of plywood on wheels. All you need to do is add a guide on the side (3D print) and a hinge on the end to swivel around. Not saying it´s a bad solution, it isn´t it´s just more complicated with more parts than need be. The idea is great though.
