This is what I like. Forget all those U.S. woodworkers and their fancy Festool Dominos. Practical solutions. "That'll do". "Close Enough". Bish Bash Bosh. Job done! Makes you proud to be British!

Just stumbled across this video and agree. This is the first “simple” wardrobe build I’ve seen that doesn’t start with £2000 worth of panel saw , dado stack and Festool proprietary tools , in a workshop the size of an aircraft hanger .

Did my daughter's coving in a Victorian flat and the chimney breasts certainly weren't square which entailed a lot of cutting, measuring, trimming as well as copious amounts of filler. Looked good in the end and I also used plaster coving. Excellent job on the wardrobe.......

Very helpful mate, just wondering what the score is when you measure the front doors. Do you measure the total width then take a few mm off for the gap?

Cheers mate, I measure the overall width, divide by two the take four mm off that measurement, that gives me a nice gap in between the doors and a gap on the edges aswell. Hope this helps buddy

Hi gonna be doing a fitted wardrobe soon and got a couple of questions, was thinking of using white melamine chipboard to save painting, apart from having to edge it what are the draw backs with it? Also is it not easier to remove and cut skirting as it wont be seen? Great simple vid for people having a first time go!

@LTWCarpentry Год назад

Hi and thanks for you comment, trite are no draw backs to be honest, other then t being more expensive, melamine is a great option it’s just a lot ofcustomers want to keep the cost down. Yes it’s easier to remove the skirt but I like to leave it in incase the unit ever gets removed the skirting is still in place

@LTWCarpentry Год назад

I use the stick festool blades normally mate but this could have been a different one I’m not sure, I always try to cut a fresh edge on my boards where possible as the factory edges aren’t always true. All edges are sanded regardless, hope this helps buddy

@DrJohnners Год назад

Great work, I'm thinking of doing this on both sides of a chimney breast in an old Victorian property but the right hand wall is external and not insulated. I don't know if boarding the gap will cause any kind of condensation to form, do you have any advice as I'm sure you've dealt with this situation before? Good simple design though and something well within my skill level...keep it up!

@LTWCarpentry Год назад

You have a few options you could insulate the wall be fire fixing your units on but I would put the insulation tight on the wall as this will trap and moisture in, the key with mould and damp issues is ventilation so you can let it dry and air out, I would pack the units off the wall, put a vent in the plinth and stop the units short of the ceiling, this will allow are flow around the units.
